Perhaps he's been given an ultimatum that he has to get his viewing number up or he's gone. Since lying windbag hasn't worked so well for him perhaps he's trying to be an honest windbag. Although you're probably right it's only temporary.

So the biggest problem here according to Ed and company is that Weiner lied. Everyone agrees that's the biggest problem in this torrid story. Then Joan Walsh in true hypocrite fashion ends the conversation about how Conservatives tried to use lying under oath as cover for going after Clinton. So a President can lie, especially if they're under oath but not a Congressman? Help me out here Joan 2 plus 2 doesn't equal 4 all the sudden why not?

Thanks for illustrating your hypocrisy Joan for the world to see in one segment. Apologize you lying jerks.

"He was sorry that he got caught"

That right there pretty much sums up how the entire mea culpa felt.

Way to go bloggers! The new media again shows why they are not just necessary but desperately needed.

21 years old is not a child. She's a legitimate part of the story. She knows she's part of the story hence the deletion of accounts and initially going into hiding. She could clear this all up pretty fast too now couldn't she? Except no one is really hounding her or calling her names, at least not that I've heard of. Her mother is asking Weiner to come clean and admit it. Which would lead me even more to believing that mom knows what Patriot is saying and that what he found is actually true. Her daughter probably explained what happened and how that landed her in the hot water of public scrutiny. You DM senators in sexually suggestive ways and then something accidentally gets out about it you know you're going to be in the media spotlight.

There's always going to be anonymity on the internet for better or for worse. Just looking at this thread it would appear that you're the only person putting his name out there. Then again you do so for business purposes right? This is an extension of your business? I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that it just that not everyone is in that same position. Most of us have nothing to gain by being made public.

The whole Deep Throat thing doesn't really fit either. Deep throat had access to information that very few on the planet were capable of getting their hands on. Patriot RT'd a public tweet a verifiable public tweet. Now clearly this tweet wasn't meant to be made public, but it was. That's one of the pitfalls of instant communication sometimes you instantly send something to everyone int the world instead of just one person. (it really is just that simple and chasing ghost to disprove it seems silly)

If anything Patriot is more like a paparazzi waiting to get a picture of some starlet kissing the wrong guy in public.

You not liking say fly's doesn't mean that fly's shouldn't exist. They may be annoying and or disgusting but they still serve a purpose. A congressional pervert outed himself because some people have the nerve to hang around public speaking holes and listen and wait for any tidbit that comes out of a congressman's mouth. If that's a problem for people they shouldn't be on twitter or they should block everyone they don't know.

Please let 3D die a second death and soon. It's not new it's not interesting and it's unnecessary. I have no problem watching 2D and feeling immersed, if it's a good film.

Sometimes I think the movie industry in general has lost it's knack at telling a story and making it interesting so they fall back on CGI and gimmicks. 3D being a gimmick in my book. Admittedly I've seen a couple of different 3D movies just to see if was as bad as I remembered and low a behold it still is. Avatar 2D vs 3D wasn't all that remarkable. There is already so much going on visually that if it's a foot in front of my nose or twenty feet it didn't matter there was plenty to look at. Final destination was the other movie it seemed the most well suited for 3D. I had money on there at least being one snake that jumps out at some point. There's always a snake head leaping off the screen.

I avoid 3D at all costs now and so do most the people that I know. Slapping a "It's in 3D" on it doesn't do anything to persuade me to see it. I think this bad marketing decision could actually bring down the movie industry. People already think movies have gotten stale and over done, making people pay more for the movie and including a headache-to-go isn't a smart strategy.

What a bunch of BS. You would give up your daughter to save another persons child?

What is a mild scandal and humiliating event for a congressman has been turned into Sophie Choice for Dan. Good grief that's what he's pissed about and rightly so. There is every chance that when the truth is completely out, and I think it already is, nothing happens to RAW. Liberal aren't known for having any shame or scruples. Dan could still wind up losing his family over a RT in which he did nothing wrong.

But you'd sacrifice your child to save another I don't believe that for one second no rational parent does that.

Kudos to you FilmLadd you have a tremendous amount of patience. I was pulling my hair out at a couple of different points in that interview.

Perhaps no one is taking into consideration just how potentially insecure Dan Wolfe is at the moment? From what he's said, and I'm only guessing here, it sounds like life, the way it is right now he isn't really proud of. Any public scrutiny into his private life and the public humiliation is a burden that's much heavier than he could bear. Which would adversely effect his children's lives.

He's making a very basic point over and over again. Everyone is trying to read sinister motives into the simplicity of his thought. RAW sent out a public dic pic and Dan did the "heavy lifting" by being vigilant and catching it. He RT it he thought his part in it was over. It was forever captured in the public domain. RAW's perverted ways had been exposed for the public and now the MBM should carry the ball from there.

He's confused as to why there is any attention on him. If he #hacked there would logically be an investigation. Since there hasn't been in his mind that exonerates him and put all the focus on Weiner.

Who knows maybe he lives in a trailer park and his ex wife and ex girlfriend are just down the way and if they walk next to his trailer as perhaps they're apt to do they can hear him talking inside his place.

Who knows the point is everything points to RAW, it was his account it was his photo it 's been his non certitude. The mother of the recipient of the tweet is asking for RAW to come clean. If this was a #hacked wouldn't the recipient of the tweet come out defending RAW as well? Why aren't people grilling her more than Dan Wolfe?

Here's the part that people like draa can't wrap their head around.

(I'm going to ignore all the actual facts and follow draa's thought processes.)

Given the opportunity to take down the "evil and dubious" master mind and liberal slayer Breitbart a highly outspoken congressman chooses not to. The guy who wants to make his mark and further his political career, who takes on everyone in congress and out of congress as loudly as possible. A guy who does it as publicly as possible is suddenly silent, when given the opportunity to fell the most openly vocal attacker of liberals Weiner suddenly becomes a pussy. One call and Breitbart is done in if he's found to have #hacked or misled everyone. Now's the chance to slay Breitbart and yet "mysteriously" nothing.

It must suck going through life that way.

At first I wasn't sure if I was buying it. To much repetition saying the same thing over and over again. As if no one was listening to anything he was saying. I guess to a small extent that was actually kind of true.

The means of communication kind of makes smooth conversation tricky. He also had a tendency to ramble all over the place and struggle getting to his main point. To many thoughts are running through this guys head all at the same time. As someone who is scatter brained myself I can relate to thinking and talking in a million directions at once. One thought leads to the next thought which leads to another thought. Sometimes I actually get back to my point. Most the time I forget where I started.

Clearly he's pissed that people are going after him instead of RAW. I can understand his frustration but people are actually going after RAW. He's been getting question after question about it. Sure he's had nothing but dumb answers and few are just coming out and saying BS like they should but as a conservative Dan should know the score with the MBM.

When he explained the situation with his family and how his personal life is on the ropes suddenly it all seemed to make perfect sense. Everything that is precious to him is in the balance and losing all that to bust a Weiner dic pic really isn't a trade any father would make, where it comes to his young children. Especially where this guy feels like he failed his family before. That's some hard core guilt Dan's carrying around. Had this happened while he was in a stable relationship he possibly would have gone to the FBI. Then he wouldn't be balancing between bringing down a pervert politician and losing his family.

Occam's Razor FTW

Way to be in the right place at the right time Dan! You may not want the credit for bringing Oscar Meyer down but you're going to get it. As you should.

Unload some of that guilt Dan you can't carry that load, no one can. You're a patriot Dan hope things in your personal life work themselves out for the better.
