— Ace Maybe we need some of the more primitive, lower-functioning ones back again.
I noted that Alec Baldwin had called HuffPo commenters a bunch of "sanctimonious d-bags." But I didn't know why.
Well, it's because Baldwin penned an apologia for Weiner's genitalia.
Weiner is the modern, high functioning man. The fact that he is married is just one, albeit a huge, factor. I know many people who divorce over such issues of online betrayal. Appointment sex with your spouse doesn't always arrive when you need it most. A modern cell phone, loaded with contacts of willing fellow players, has a table with a red checkered table cloth ready for you at virtually any time. . .
Oh, but there's more. From Business Insider, which cheekily runs a picture of Baldwin at the blackboard explaining Always Be Closing.
My thought on Weiner is that he is a very busy man. Like most, although not all, politicians, he probably spends a great deal of time going to meetings, raising campaign funds and seizing upon every opportunity to remind people of how great he is as a public servant and a human being. It's exhausting. He exists under a constant pressure cooker of self-analysis and public appraisal. Like other politicians, he needs something to take the edge off. For some people, regardless of occupation, that could mean booze, drugs, gambling, food or shopping. For high functioning men like Weiner and other officials who have lived through such scandals, who are constantly on the go, that leaves one tried and true source of a reliable high. The affirmation that comes when someone lets you know they want to sleep with you. Or even cyber-sleep with you.
Oh My Dear Sweet Generous Heaven of Never-Ending Beclowning... It's just Christmas every day anymore.
Eh, some of these guys need something to take the edge off.
You know what really takes the edge off?
Teenagers!
"In Fairness:" I'm supposed to say, "in fairness," tha Baldwin says he wasn't justifying Weiner's behavior, just explaining it.
But I don't think much is needed on the explanation front, really. He's a horny guy, and that special and dangerous combination of narcissistic/arrogant but deeply insecure/haunted by feelings of inadequacy. Those go together all the time, and it results in a literally jerky personality type, veering from indulgent crybaby to swaggering bully in an instant, and usually marks someone who's headed for a big fall.
Anyway, he says this isn't a justification. Praising Weiner as "the modern, high-functioning man" as part of the "explanation" sure sounds like "justifying" to me.

Howie Carr just discussed how Weiner got elected to NYC Council twenty years ago.
He sent out anonymous racist pamphlets to smear his liberal opponent. It was at the time when some Jewish guy got stabbed. I forgot the name of the place. And it was when Jesse and Al said some stupid anti-jew stuff.
It was a time when blacks and jews weren't getting along and Weiner exploited it...anonymously.
btw, Weiner was Rep. Schumer's aide at the time.

You're referring to the Crown Heights riots, which helped lead to David Dinkins getting turfed in favor of Rudy in the mid-90s.
Weiner put out some leaflets tying one or both opponents to Jesse "Hymietown" Jackson and Al Sharpton, the latter of which incited the riots by calling for violence against the Jews living in the area after a car carrying a Jewish bigwig accidentally ran over a young black kid.

Admittedly that didn't work out too well for Governor Spitzer, but that was only because he was taking out so much cash from personal accounts to pay for sex, it triggered a corruption audit.
If Spitzer were going a little less "upscale" he'd probably still be governor of NY.

Weiner's behavior makes perfect sense, if you know his history of being a "player" and consider that his marriage was a sham from the start. (IE it was mainly a marriage of political conveniece).
I'm just saying that not only do Baldwin's musings not explain anything, some of them are just downright stupid.
Again, nobody needs him to explain why men might want to cheat on their wives. What does "high functioning" have to do with it? Like you have to be a senator or actor to "sext" people? And then there is this gem:
>"Weiner is so busy, he forgot the important rule that everyone you interact with on this plane becomes a co-conspirator. You rely on them to remain confidential."
Right, Weiner wsa SOOOO busy and "high functioning" that he didn't realize that internet communications create permanent records? He's a @#$ing LAWYER for pete's sake, yet he's so high and powerful he doesn't realize that sexual talk with people creates witnesses?
This is all just excuse-making, and pretty bad excuse making at that.

Listen. What you're doing-doing is picking an established offense-to-public-sexual-morality target where you can displace your real, socially unacceptable sex-related outrage/etc. at a guy who won with his dick out.
Like I said to Zombie Genet, Weiner's not the villain in this story. He's the asshole. The blame-Breitbart/no-story-here crowd, who had to be beaten almost to death to get a mild tsk-tsked out of, are the villains.
And Baldwin is the least of them. He's a legit, first-person, non-vicarious asshole, dick-out and proud, not giving us the "look away, peasants" bullshit every other Name Person is giving us.

Fey said in her book that she wrote the part specifically as a vehicle for Baldwin, so yeah, she ought to be able to take a good bit of the credit for whatever success he's had there. She also credits him at being an extraordinarily good actor, and explains why..
(Personally, I wouldn't know, I've literally never seen that program ever).
Fey also went into a bit of detail how production of the entire show was effectively held hostage while Baldwin was negotiating terms with the network.
As to her talent, I'm not particularly a big fan of her, her work, or her politics, but I think empirically you have to admit she's been about as successful as a comedy writer as you can get, and that's she's good at what she does.

Baldwin: "For some people, regardless of occupation, that could mean booze, drugs, gambling, food or shopping. For high functioning men like Weiner and other officials who have lived through such scandals, who are constantly on the go, that leaves one tried and true source of a reliable high."
He's not describing a "very busy man" as much as an addict. Even terms like "functioning" is used to describe alcoholism at a certain stage. Except Wiener is not high functioning any more. He is quite messed up, and he's at the stage where he's messing up other people.

He thought it was shit too. I despise Ben Affleck, the beatles and the song Imagine. Running tally for today. Surprisingly I find Alec Baldwin douchy but manageable kinda like that crazy uncle everyone has.

The screenwriters, directors and casting folks screwed his books. Willem Defoe as Clark???!! Are you fucking kidding me. Indiana Jones as Ryan, the supposed bookish dude. Gawd they fucked that set of books up.
Apparently CBS pictures is doing a Vince Flynn book. How badly do you think they will fuck up Mitch Rapp? They are now going to do "American Assassin" Who in Hollywood will they get to play a 22 year old Rapp? Disaster ahead.

Why couldn't that maid just blow Dominique? Why did she have to resist and give him a hard time? Dominique does so much to help people all over the world and he's too busy for a regular relationship.
When a man like Dominique, or Weiner, need to release a little sexual tension, people should help him.

Baldwin's attempts to "take the edge off", being the "high functioning male" that he is, is to call his daughter and leave ranting and demeaning messages. But, hey, to each his own.
"Always Be Closing."

What is the cup thing at the end of Ace's post?
I think it's a pressure cooker.

It looks like a sifter to me. I thought it was an advert.

Now that you mention it, I'll have to go with sifter as well. (I thought that was a plug, but it's a crank.)

Never. Going. To. Happen.
What, you get caught sending dic pics and sexting with teenagers and saying you'd like to meet & f*** women not your wife... then "spend more time with the family'?
Nope, you'd rather have a root canal than spend more time with the family right now.
And his wife opposes him resigning too? Say it isn't so... she doesn't want him at home more?
Yeah... no surprise. Anything to avoid spending more time with the family in this case seems a good thing.

Sifter. I clicked on it, and it says VideoSift. It's an SNL number.
(Whew. I'm glad that's resolved.)

Charlie Sheen, Please please make my day and pen a Weiner apiologia diary at Huffpo or Kos.
But Alec Baldwin does make a good point about politics being quite stressful to those who choose the profession. Poor things. We know President Obama can't even eat his waffles.

For some people, regardless of occupation, that could mean booze, drugs, gambling, food or shopping.
You can certainly tell Alec doesn't stray outside of the Hollywood elite circle he surrounds himself in.

Apart from that Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?"

Um, no. He, like no other known politician, spends a great deal of time using various devices Tweeting pictures of his penis to younger ladies and girls while texting how great his penis is.
Sheesh. The attempted mainstreaming of this behavior (by some of the Left) is truly a sight to behold.

Wonder how Mr.Baldwin would like it if this man hit on his daughter, the "little pig," or is she reserved for her daddy?

Alec's "Full Woody Allen" defense of Weiner (Christ, are puns that unavoidable in this case ?) shows how Hollywood's (damnit, not again) Weiner support (ack !) only does more damage to their cause celebre du jure.
I'm not normally inclined to give Clooney a pass, but back in the day (I believe pre-04 election) he did have the sense to say Hollywood should shut up because the Wood's hyper-prog d-bags were motivating the Silent Majority to the polls.
Is it surprising that an d-bag that raked his young daughter as a fat pig demonstrates a misogynist's prejudice for a fellow sociopath ? No.
However, it is suprising that any significant number of people might subscrige to his raw propogandist views.

"I'm not a psychopath, I'm a fully functional sociopath. Do your research.---Sherlock Holmes
Alex Baldwin, Anthony Weiner, and Bill Clinton all qualify .
