I am disappointed in some of the comments I see about Huma Abedin, wife of disgraced classless jerk Anthony Weiner.
Anthony Weiner mixed up his personal and professional lives, and did so in a really offensive way. The original actions are outrageous, and his subsequent actions even more so.
Huma on the other hand, has done nothing of the sort. I’d like to know how taking cheap shots at her at this point is anything other than yet another example of attacking a pretty woman with whom one disagrees. She’s pretty and there’s a media firestorm in her house, so I understand the interest. But not the vitriol.
She seems to be the only person on the democrat side who hasn’t made a hash of this. There was no talk of a “vast right-wing conspiracy”, for example. What’s more, she isn’t even a proper politician. She’s a staffer. Professionally, she doesn’t have opinions, so it makes no sense to pre-empt her.
Now would be a good time for conservatives to put up or shut up about tearing people down in the media.
