Anthony Weiner speaks truth to power, and we want to shut him up?
I live in Florida, so he doesn't represent me, but I like him. He's one of those who isn't afraid to get up and say what needs to be said. He doesn't care if he offends the rethugs, steps on their toes, or hurts their little feelings. He ferociously defends the truth, exposing conservative lies. He's been one of the right-wing propaganda machine's favorite targets.
Watch these videos and then tell me if you think we should muzzle this voice!
A few Youtube links I removed, followed by:
Honestly - after watching Weiner speak, do we really want to shut him up?

16. How does the girl know about his cape and tights comments?
Or does she think all Congressman talk about wearing capes and tights?
Faster than a speeding twitter
More powerful than any healing white light

It's a dick! It's a knob!
It's Sssssuper Weiner!

31. No, it was a statement. A smear and it should be apologized for.
Weiner is a democrat being targeted by a vicious, hateful, racist ideologue. This is democratic site, not a republican site, and using rightwing smears against democrats without any of proof, is, as far as I now, against DU rules.
What isn't against DU rules?

26. Obama kept troops in Iraq, and continues to bomb Pakistan. Would you like him to resign as well?
Did he tweet his groin ferret? Then, yes.

32. If there's a more hackneyed bullshit line than "truth to power"
I don't know of it.
Yes We Can
Yes We Did
