Lawrence O’Donnell Implies That He Might Be A Bit Jealous After Seeing Weiner Bulge Pic

video
» 45 comments

Lawrence O’Donnell may have missed the first official cable news day of “Weinergate” due to jury duty, but he made up for it tonight in spades. Showing the “puritanical” NBC version of the photo alleged to have been tweeted by Rep. Anthony Weiner, O’Donnell posited that there was likely a very good reason the Congressman did not want to deny it was him. In fact, “the longer I look at it,” O’Donnell confessed admiringly, “the more I don’t want to deny that that might be a picture of me.”

After mocking the official pixelation of the photo– which shows a cotton-clad aroused nether-region– O’Donnell noted that he only showed the pixelated version because it needed to “adhere to NBC’s puritanical standards,” clearly embracing the hilarity of the situation when removed from the sort of possible national security issues with hacking a Congressman’s Twitter account that have many on the right in panic mode. However, he did give his audience some direction, warning that the pixelation makes it seem “dirtier than it actually is”: “for those of you brave enough to take a peek at the contour of a human penis under cotton,” he directed them to the internet. Then he showed the picture for a period of time that felt slightly longer than necessary, only to later suggest that Rep. Weiner “might not want to deny that that is a picture of him,” delivering the above line and later giving a disclaimer for his own Twitter account: “some members of my staff have had access to it.”

After the humorous introduction, O’Donnell gets serious– looking back at a history of liberal politicians that have survived sex scandals because their constituents admired their work. O’Donnell notes that, as much as he mocks Newt Gingrich and other Republicans for their private misgivings, he only does it because of their hypocrisy. “Nothing should matter to you less than the legal sexual conduct of [a politician],” he concluded, adding that he believed Rep. Weiner’s career was safe “no matter what he tweets.”

    Please, the socialist is jealous about the other socialist because of his power.

    If O’Donnel the socialist had as much power as the socialist Weiner, he too could get people to look at his penis tweets.

  • Big Eddie

    Does it matter to you at all , Larry , that Weiner is a liar ?

    Did not think so .

  • Liberal Tormentor

    The libs know Dick is lying, so they’re trying to turn it into a joke.

  • ChrisNH

    Lib media hacks were masturbatory when Obama was elected, and I guess–despite their seething rage–they still are.

    Weiner needed authorization from his email to post a photo on his y-frog account, which is different than twitter. He needed to go on TWO accounts to send the photo; twitter AND y-frog.

    BUSTED.

    Frances:
    While your article eventually got to point of LOD’s story, it was after you set up the joke lines for baboons like those above. There could have been a good discussion about why people elect politicians after scandals. Now we will only get monkeys throwing feces.
    Your bad.

  • Resistance Is Futile

    Lawrence O’Donnell handles this story in a far more sophisticated and intelligent manner than Chris Matthews. This is not surprising given the fact that O’Donnell is a far brighter man than Matthews. The humor associated with O’Donnell’s handlinf far exceeds the limits of Matthew’s intellect and perspective.

  • TfT

    Of course LOD beleives Weiner’s job is safe; he is part of the liberal elite media who will work overtime to get him reelected, despite the possibility that he lied his clymer off. Liars and cheaters are aok as long as they are democrats…good old LOD, exposes himself once again.

    Welcome to the world of social media! I’m still trying to figure out what this is all about. Obviously, Wiener did something that offended the puritannical sensibilities of a lot of rightwingers who are so socially and sexually correct themselves. The way you’re going on about this, one would think he was molesting, pandering, soliciting or sexually abusing women, as have a number of puplic figures.

    I’m beginning to detect the smell of ‘Birthers’ in all this. You’re just coming off the high you had for months on end about Obama’s being born in Timbuktoo or some other alien place and not being a real American. Fortunately, that’s been played out and you’re looking for a new gig. So you’ll probably go on for the next few weeks about how immoral and low down liberals are because of whatever awful thing Wiener did. I would like one of you geniuses to explain what terrible thing Wiener has done and why you’re so offended. By the way, I think this will turn out well for Wiener because while most of you hate him and everything he stands for, he happens to be one of the more effective politicians in terms of what he’s actually done to help all the people in this country. People will now look more closely at his record. Yes, he’s an ultra liberal. He voted against going into Iraq; he’s for single payer universal health care which despite your stupid protestations, we will have within a few years; he’s definitely for taxing the uber-rich individuals and corporations who have taken so much and given so little and he will be re-elected with even a bigger margin.

    I really think it’s sad that the rightwing in this country, exactly the same backward people who were opposed to everything Roosevelt stood for and created in the 1930′s and 40′s, were wtill going on and on in the 1950′s and 60′s.You seem to have a problem with progress and maturation.

    Yes, the Weenie is a terrible person and history will remember him only for his disputed Jockey Shorts, although its doubtful they’re really his, and if they were, so what! My God, how did Conservatives and Republicans fall so low. Do you realize that unless you come up with some real help for our struggling country, you will all be tossed out in 2012, and it will be much worse than what happened to the Democrats in 2008.

    You posted that lib tripe on another thread, son. It was junk then and it’s junk now.

    Sorry, son, Conservatives can work on multiple things concurrently unlike libs.

  • laceyunderalls

    Yo, progs, I know watching this little twirp is like looking in the mirror, but really, just give it up already. It’s *awfully* embarrassing that you continue to defend him at this point.

    Have none of you heard of Occam’s Razor??

    Sheesh.

  • Calvin

    Heh. My Mom’s friends at work came up with a new name for Weiner: Peter Twitter.

    Tell your mom to keep working, you need more Pop-Tarts.

  • WildMan

    I am surprised that gay Larry even knows he has one. It must be tiny if he was impressed by Weiner’s wittle weiner. This story is so funny because it shows that Dummycraps really are the world’s biggest hypocrites. Dummycraps are proving they are not worthy of holding office in America. Weiner needs to do what the Republicraps do….resign!

    Larry is jeolous because Weiners Weener is getting more air time then he is.

  • Group Hug

    We believe his wife will be asking why he has been “tweeting” these young women. To bad Oprah is not around anymore. Gosh we miss that woman!!

    No, the man is a obscene. I think he was banished for a day. He claims he “reported” me – for nothing I guess, so I’m not surprised I didn’t hear from anyone about his “reporting”. Another left wing loon lies – what a freaking surprise.

  • Barack Must Go

    Don’t worry Larry. You’ll always be thought of by many, many ” real ” Americans as the huggest, knuckle dragging, left wing bomb thrower that ever crawled the face of the earth.

  • Sean68

    Do these guys all have tiny dicks? And Weiner is so emaciated he looks like a concentration camp survivor. His penis is going to look a little longer than normal.

    Actually Weiner thought hacking was a big deal at one time too not just right wingers buttmunch.

  • LeviCoultify

    6 out of your 7 FRONT PAGE stories are about the Weiner story mediaite. Why is anyone pretending this site is anything but a celebrity gossip page for politics?

  • Dem4Ever

    Larry, you’re a nutty little fruit cake. Aren’t you? You keep it up, so to speak…you make me laugh.

  • ChrisNH

    In other news, the economy continues to drastically worsen ON OBAMO’s WATCH. Everything is worsening ‘ON OBAMO’s WATCH. This is why Dim Libs need a statue-of-Liberty play like this to distract and misdirect attention. The Dick-Head Weiner just happens to be the one who drew the short straw. Next month, our ‘Queen’ of Homeland Security, Mrs. Butterworth, will declare that she was once Mr. Butterworth.

    So O’D is “small” below…if he thinks “thats” small, he should get an MRI and see if they can locate his brain! That’s got to be a search that will result in: “Brain – MI(in)A.”
