Too Many Weeners

Another politician is on his knees to beg forgiveness from his wife, family and his constituants. Weiner's downfall was using social media to conduct his affairs. He was caught sending a pictures of himself to and having an ongoing sexually charged relationship with Meagan Broussard, a 26-year-old single mother from Texas. Broussard claims she was simply participating in risque online chats -- as she has done with other men online.
No Doubt that Weiner is guilty of poor judgement. But why is Broussard now being considered a victim? She readily admits to participating in these online sexting jousts with others.

The reality is that Facebook, Twitter and other social media have made it fAR too easy for our imperfect culture to make mistakes in public.
The first rule is THINK before you press "send".
