It is time to stop obessing over Weiner and start obsessing on just what the repukes are doing to this country. Time for priorities.

This is after all America. Ignoring problems is the national past time of our political leadership.

1. The reason the Democratic leadership was focusing on Weiner
was to AVOID talking about "what the repukes are doing to this country".

They are to a large extent in agreement with the repukes, so any distractions are welcome.

2. Also, to avoid what the Dems are doing to this country. Austerity measures,
anti-union measures, undermining civil rights, endless global war...

8. I WISH people
could actually focus on real problems once in a while. How long do you think it will be before the MSM creates a new distraction? I say one week.
