Well, She Is a Democrat, After All

The first thing I learned about Sydney Leathers — back in those prim and proper days of a week ago, when it was considered shocking to name her, as she was presumed to be the helpless young victim of Anthony Weiner’s perverted predation — was that she had worked as a field coordinator for President Obama’s re-election campaign.

Once I knew that, I thought, “Oh, give me a break.”

Readers may forget that, two months after I first arrived in D.C., the Monica Lewinsky scandal erupted and, as the new guy on the national desk, I received a journalistic baptism by fire during the mad scramble of the Washington press corps that a major sex scandal produces. And watching the way the media reacted to Bill Clinton’s embarrassment (collectively donning Nina Burleigh’s “presidential knee pads,” as it were), I concluded that all liberal women are sluts.

Except the lesbians, maybe. Probably some of the more monogamous of those are closet Republicans, with secret urges of decency they hide from their more “progressive” LGBT friends.

Anyway, I woke this morning and saw Donald Douglas’s headline, “Weiner Sexting Partner Sydney Leathers Boasts of Milking ‘Sugar Daddies’ for Thousands,” and thought: “Of course she did.”

Sydney Leathers is a tattooed harlot who hired herself out to old creeps. What other kind of 22-year-old could (a) work for the Obama campaign, and (b)  think she was in love with Anthony Weiner? And yet we are supposed to pretend to be surprised by this, when Sydney Leathers was only doing what all liberals girls do, and Anthony Weiner was only doing what all Democrats do, i.e., cheating and lying:

‘So Anthony Weiner and I talked all day and every day for months,’ she wrote.
‘And someone found out somehow and tried to blackmail me with it. I’m like…terrified this will come out since he’s running for mayor.’

Could I say more? I could, and will. But for now, I recommend again my American Spectator column, “The Pervert Party.”

UPDATE: Your daughter might be a liberal if . . .

  1. Someone was trying to blackmail her? She’s not the one with reputation to lose if it gets out. Yeah, she would be called all sorts of names but she’s not the one with a couple million dollars in political donations that would go to hell. Either her blackmailer was an idiot and blackmailing the wrong person or something isn’t adding up. Smells wrong.

  2. “Well, She Is a Democrat, After All”

    For shame, RSM, for shame. This is simply the “soft bigotry of low expectations”.

  3. Heh. You have a stronger stomach than that Stacy! Any reporter worth his salt can witness the autopsy of a 2 week old floater while munching on a cold greasy cheeseburger without missing a beat …

  4. If Clinton’s scandals take place in the youtube, twitter, facebook cell phone camera age he doesn’t survive

  5. Thanks for posting that link. Those photos reminded me that I need to add cottage cheese to my grocery list.

    Seriously, Anthony, dude… Huma is at least shaped like a woman.

  6. You earlier wondered why she wasn’t seeing guys her age, and I said it was because guys can sense a skank.

    And she turns out to be a skank.

  7. And we should have no other expectations of them. The “YOU might be a nice guy, but the rest of them” argument gives lazy and self-unaware people too much wiggle room…

  8. This fat turd blossom led a campaign to discredit Sarah Palin. What a joke, Governor Palin has more dignity and grace when she’s shooting elk and this STD waiting to happen would have in a Givenchy gown (do they make formal circus tents to clothe her in?)

  9. A skink is a lizard, while a skunk is an odoriferous mammal of the order Mephitidae. I’m not sure there’s really a lineage there.

    I think “skank” is a mildly onomatopoeic term applying to women of certain attributes, such as those exhibited by Ms. Leathers and others, most notably Paris Hilton. That’s not to be associated with “rockabilly skank,” a musical genre most associated with Dave Lister of “Red Dwarf” fame.
