He can't behave differently because that is who he is. No wonder he had no friends in congress.

He ran Obama's caucus in Maine in 2008....I loved this guy's energy. He was a fierce Democrat. The fact that Andrew Breitbart took his scalp, should give everyone pause. He was great on running healthcare inthe House. How does Vitter get a pass but Weiner doesnt? Sorry, I think it's really sad that we can't seperate the public from the private. The family values party does (Sanford, Vitter, too many others to name), but Democrats cut and run on our best advocates. And Lawrence, bite me.

After the bullshit flung here and in the press about his losing it with a voter, when it turns out it was a racist personal attack against his wife, I can't say I blame him, nor do I know what caused the finger. File this under: who gives a shit other than rightwingers and busybodies with an axe to grind

Hopefully that's coming soon.

Hey-- at least he was a politician offering something tangible. That's rare these days.

And no, I don't want to see any politician's dick pic. But it was real, unless his librul hollywood minions stepped in. Damn hollywood libruls! If they faked it, I'm disappointed. The special effects were the clue, as was the melting ice cream, but with all the hot lights and all, it happens. Damn those laws that forbade using dehydrated mashed potatoes as ice cream, with the perfectly shaped scoops that tantalized the nation so, until they were outlawed by the damn libruls and their truth in advertising fascist socialist communism!



Ice cream ads really did look good back then, though.
