Before today, the Weinergate scandal was mostly humiliating, with all those lewd and silly Facebook messages and Tweets Rep. Anthony Weiner sent to a bevy of women. Now the whole thing is just sad: The New York Times is reporting that Rep. Anthony Weiner’s wife, Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, is pregnant .
This new information does explain one thing: Why Weiner lied to her, and to the American public, for so long about those salacious photos. It’s bad enough to have online relationships with women who are not his wife. But to be having these relationships with his wife when she is reportedly pregnant with his first child is just pathetic.
