 What's sad, is that if it wasn't Weiner's personal life, it would be something else, anything else.  The media in this day and time is a joke.  But then again maybe they are just giving the people what they want?  I can't say anymore.  We live in the world of Basket Ball Jumpoffs, and Love and Wack Rap, Jersery Whores, America Doesn't Know Talent, 16 and Knocked Up and any number of other reality shows.  People eat this stuff up, and don't really want to be bothered to have to think about real problems and real issues.  Except that ignoring problems won't make them go away.  If we don't deal with them then our kids will.
