Seriously? CARLOS DANGER?



All the fury about the latest iteration of disgraced ex-congressman and current New York city mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner’s roving fingers is completely misplaced. If a disgraced, adulterous ex-governor can win a seat in Congress in South Carolina I see no reason New Yorkers shouldn’t have a morally retarded mayor.

Sexting strangers is sordid, and frankly it weirds me out, but we’re missing an equally troubling aspect of this scandal in Weiner’s choice of screen name, Carlos Danger.

Seriously? CARLOS DANGER? What kind of fevered preteen id came up with that alias?

Plenty of politicians and world leaders have served admirably while possessing the personal morals of an ally cat, but at least they seemed like adults. Anthony Weiner appears to be stuck in some sort of sexual time warp, an adolescent, sudden rush of hormones stage, that drives most pre-teens bat crap crazy until they grow older and realize “Hey, I’m a sexual being, but that doesn’t mean I have to live in a crazed fantasy world forever.”

Hey New York, you can do better. Surely, in a city of nearly 8.5 million people,  there’s a stud muffin you could run for mayor with a more mature level of personal moral failure.
