Could it be that, ex-Representative Anthony Weiner, nutjob that he is, was done in by the Chicago White House and not some accident promoted to the limelight by the blogosphere? Representative Weiner crosses the boss and allies with the boss'es target.
Weiner, who is Jewish, went off the reservation at Obama's speaking of Israel returning to the 1967 borders. He talked to Netanyahu, his constituents and the media. This isn't the Chicago way. Shortly afterward comes the Weiner overexposure, then two young girls are reporting associations with Rep. Weiner and things turn perverse. Radio raconteur, Michael Savage posited this theory the other day and now Ace of Spades is posting information that the young girls....weren't. It's only theory but it's very Chicago.

Yet, with Weiner, the Democrats, instead of circling the wagon around him, are turning on him to drive him out of Congress. I thought this was quite strange, until I heard a point Dr. Savage made. He mentioned that Weiner was an outspoken critic of Barack Obama’s evil call for Israel to return to its indefensible 1967 borders. Weiner’s criticism of Obama and the close timing of the Weiner photograph scandal seem too odd to be coincidence

Following President Obama’s speech on the Middle East, Weiner was one of the leading critics of the Administration call for Israel to withdraw to the 1967 lines with mutually agreed upon swaps.
Citing the ill-fated US demand for a total "settlement" freeze, which brought peace talks to a halt when the Palestinians refused to negotiate unless this unreasonable condition was met, Weiner noted that President Obama again repeated his mistake by giving the Palestinians yet another American-created precondition – the 1967 borders.
At the meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu, Weiner reiterated his support for Israel at a time when the both the merger of Hamas and Fatah and the Palestinian Authority’s refusal to return to the negotiating table pose serious challenges to the ongoing peace process.
“Israel remains our nation’s strongest ally in the Middle East, and I made it clear to the Prime Minister we will continue to offer our steadfast support to the one true democracy in that region of the world,” Weiner said. “Time after time, Israel has made its intention for peace clear, and setting unnecessary preconditions for negotiations will not lead us towards peace in the region. We’ve been down this road before.”

Skullduggery?: "Betty" and "Veronica" Fake?!?

NYT says the twitter identities of two younger girls who tipped the #bornfree crew about Weiner's internet behavior... don't exist.
Per NYT:
One Twitter user the group observed seeking to interact with Mr. Weiner was called “Nikki Reid.” She started an online campaign to get Mr. Weiner to be her prom date at Hollywood High School in May, using the account @starchild111. Within days after Mr. Weiner started following her, a Twitter user, also using a fake name, Marianela Alicea, and pretending to be Nikki Reid’s classmate, contacted a member of the #bornfreecrew and said she had information about Mr. Weiner, but never provided any.
But there is no evidence that either girl exists. There is no Nikki Reid or Marianela Alicea enrolled at Hollywood High School. In response to requests from a reporter from the blog Mediaite, a woman claiming to be Nikki Reid’s mother provided documentation to substantiate her identity and her daughter’s identity. But records show the street address the woman provided does not list anyone named Reid as an occupant. State officials in California have confirmed that the driver’s license this woman provided to Mediaite was false, as well.
It remains unclear who is behind the fake Twitter accounts, why anyone was trying to pretend to be a 16-year-old high school girl looking for Mr. Weiner to be her prom date or why the user contacted members of the #bornfreecrew.
