| | | Maher: JFK & Clinton "way worse" than Weiner
BILL MAHER: I'll just say one more thing, and then we’ll get off of this, which is that as gross as [Anthony Weiner] is, I find it even grosser the way the media tut tuts, points fingers, shames people, makes them go on shaming tours. I've seen you [Eliot Spitzer] have to go on to every show and have people point their finger. “How dare you?” Please.
The New York Times wrote in an editorial, “Mr. Spitzer, like Mr. Weiner, is a political animal” - like who in politics isn't? Of course. Obama is a political animal. Everybody who is in politics -.“who clearly finds it hard not to have an audience for these two charter members of the Kardashian Party.” I looked up Kim Kardashian on the New York Times website. They mention her 1,700 times. Just saying. They've written her name in articles about her that many times.

I mean, Kennedy was so much more reckless. He was screwing the mafia mistress, East German spies, 19-year-old White House secretaries two at a time in the pool. Bill Clinton, Paula Jones and Kathleen Willey, true, you know, sexual harassment. There just seems to be no sort of consistency in the media.
