As the Weiner affairs draws to a close, it seems more answers to this odd episode beg more questions.Are best friends ultimately enemies? Where is the legendary Pandarus in all this; that devious individual who facilititates matters for lovers? Were Huma and Hilary doing the Sappho routine? Generally, pop culture asserts that women are hate-filled sexual competitors and at best, have complex , conflicting yet somehow harmonious emotions. Is this a case of Huma choosing between her best friend and her true love? And are best friends ultimately enemies? Is Weiner collateral damage in a chick movie gone awry? After all, the philosopher, Spinoza, claimed that whenever anything in nature seems to us ridiculous, absurd or evil it is because we have but a partial knowledge of things. Also, relevant to Weiner, Spinoza said ambition is the immoderate desire for power and desire is the essence of a man.

How does the child of two university professors [one of them deceased], who is single, never married, and living on a clerical salary, in one of the most expensive cities in America, afford to “never… wear the same outfit twice”? Much less purchase from the likes of Oscar de la Renta, Catherine Malandrino, Charles Nolan, Prada, and Marc Jacobs? Not to mention Yves Saint Laurent? How does the child of two university professors [one of them deceased], who is single, never married, and living on a clerical salary, in one of the most expensive cities in America, afford to buy her own “apartment in the vicinity of 12th and U streets”? What would such an apartment cost? $500,000? $750,000? $1,000,000? Where is she getting that kind of money? Who is the co-signor on her loan?

Lee Strahan notes, however, that there are still gaps in our knowledge, not just about what Weiner was up to, but also where lies the genesis of the tweet that shook the world. Specifically, two of the teen-agers whom Weiner sexted up have disappeared from the scene. Not only that, there remains an aura of mystery about the guy who originally re-tweeted the d**k-pic.
One of the strangest aspects of the #Weinergate story is that they are three people that are fairly central to the story that nobody seems to be able to locate. Neither the prescient Weiner-obsessed whistleblower PatriotUSA76, nor the two high school girls named “Betty and Veronica” in Tommy Christopher’s original piece reporting on the two.
Read More: http://jerseynut.blogspot.com/2011/06/huma-abedin-loves-hillary-clinton-but.html---Well, it's obvious that Huma loves Hillary. She's been with her since the harridan's failed attempt to overtake The One in the quest for the 2008 Democratic nomination. But what is the relationship between the powerful Hillary Clinton, and Huma Abedin, who has been described as Hillary's beautiful, enigmatic "body person"? And what does it have to do with Huma's silence about her husband's (the revolting Anthony Weiner) habit of sending lewd photos of himself to barely-legal coeds and blackjack dealers?---
I’ve discussed the situation with Patriot a number of times, so the update is – still, nobody seems to have ever spoken to them on the phone. Nobody knows who they are and there are contradictions in their story.
I had reporters calling me all weekend to try and find Betty and Veronica. These are people from major press organizations with big resources behind them. No sign of Betty or Veronica. Tommy Christopher says he spoke to Betty’s Mom on the phone and did other things to confirm their identities and it would be a fatal career move to just lie about that, so it’s hard to believe that that’s what happened. On the other hand, nobody else has seen this proof as far as I know (perhaps Colby Hall, the managing editor?) and Tommy has been very belligerently defensive about his reporting. And again, reporters have put dozens of hours into searching records and knocking on door with no trace.
Significantly, Betty seems to be connected at least four people central to Weinergate – Weiner followed her, she talked on Twitter with stripper @GingerLee, Betty contacted the 17 year old girl in Delaware, and she had some interactions with PatriotUSA76. It also seems like @GennetteC knew about her….

Once Hillary was relegated to being Obama's sock-puppet Secretary of State, did it not make sense for Huma for pursue her pursuer, one Congressman Anthony Weiner, a rather dull-witted, vain and ambitious politician who just happens to be a key figure on the Congressional Committee on Energy and Commerce? I mean, it's not like the Saudis care about our energy policy, right? Could Weiner's Huma be holding her tongue right now, not to save the snake-like skin of her oily husband, but to save her own? Is the very last thing Huma needs at this point the one thing she has apparently avoided her entire life - scrutiny? Maybe. Could be that Huma's a wonderful lady, and a dutiful wife, suffering in silence. Or it could also be there is a much more practical, terrifying reason for her to keep her lips zipped. I'm just saying, is all...
…It’s weird and it’s weird in a way that’s not normal, either. When else has this happened? I can’t remember another story with 3 (or more, really) phantom people. The fact that Weiner is guilty of doing what Patriot long suspected him of doing makes it more weird, not less weird.Read More:http://freewillsf.blogspot.com/2011/06/set-up-man-throwing-anthony-weiner-out.htm

People are motivated to follow their darker instincts by lust for money power or sex.
In mid 2007 rumors started to circulate about Huma Abedin a stunningly beautiful staffer working for Hillary Clinton. The wagging tongues of Washington asked logical questions about Huma. “If Hillary is bisexual (as had long been thought and occasionally uttered in public), what is the nature of her relationship with the dark eyed enchanting Abedin, a young lady from a strict Muslim family?”…

…“Is the fact that Huma was never seen twice in the same designer outfit and lived in a $649,000 condo explainable because she was trading sexual favors with Hillary for a fabulous lifestyle?” “If so what does that make Huma?”
“How did Huma, whose government salary was listed as $9,999, live as she did?”
“Is Hillary Clinton a lesbian?”
Is Huma Abedin her lesbian “kept woman?”
In 2007 Michael Musto a Village Voice columnist who writes about gay issues commented that Hillary might be “Gayle King-ing” Huma, that is getting her a higher profile in order to head off media scrutiny about her and why Clinton would be “hiding” Huma and the true nature of their relationship.
In her tell all book about her affair with Bill Clinton Gennifer Flowers wrote that when she asked Bill if Hillary is a lesbian he laughed and made reference to her being more experienced with women then he is.
---The Troilus and Cressida bit is woven around these bigger characters. Troilus (Paul Stoker, very fit, very capable) tells a terribly camp Pandarus (Matthew Kelly), he fancies one of the girls on the other side, Cressida. Acting as a go-between, Pandarus sets up a meeting for the two lovebirds. There’s no marriage talked about (one of many modern touches) but they promise to be true to each other. This is all scuppered when Cressida is used as a bargaining pawn to free a Trojan captive. She’s sent to the Greek camp, and quickly proves one soldier’s affections are as good as another’s when you’re a girl stuck in an army on your own.--- Read More:http://londonist.com/2009/07/theatre_review_troilus_and_cressida.php
The purpose of this essay is NOT to prove Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin are lesbians, but to raise the question: If they are daughters of Sapphos wouldn’t it have been a good deal for Anthony Weiner to become Huma’s beard or faux husband?
Killing any rumor of a lesbian relationship between Hillary and Huma would be very helpful to Hillary’s drive to be elected president, and a “President Hillary Clinton” would be enormously helpful to Weiner’s long held dream of being elected Mayor of New York City.
The coverage of Weinergate has nibbled around the edges. The reports have carefully avoided mentioning the scandal’s “third rail”: the relationship between Huma Abedin Congressman Anthony Weiner’s wife and her former boss Hillary Clinton. Nevertheless, if this is the root of the relationship between Huma and Weiner the whole ugly affair falls into place.
Bill Clinton understands all to well what it’s like to live with a women like Hillary. He knows what it can drive an ordinary man to do. Anthony Weiner’s tweets to a porn star may be motivated by more than mere curiosity.

Baruch Spinoza:That is why most men believe that the only things we do freely are the ones toward which we have a weak inclination
(because desires for those things can be lessened by the memory of something else ·that is relevant·), and that we aren’t at all free in doing things toward which we are strongly drawn, because those inclinations can’t be damped down by the memory of something else. But nothing would prevent them from believing that we are free in everything we do if they hadn’t found by experience that we do many things we
afterwards regret, and that often we see the better and follow the worse (namely when we are conflicted, having contrary affects)….
…Noteworthy among these kinds of affects— which (by 56) must be very numerous—are gluttony, drunkenness, lust, greed, and ambition, which are only kinds of love or desire differentiated by the ·external objects to which they are related. For by ‘gluttony’, ‘drunkenness’, ‘lust’,
‘greed’, and ‘ambition’ we understand simply an immoderate love or desire for eating, drinking, sexual union, wealth, and esteem. When affects are thus classified in terms of the objects to which they are related, they don’t have opposites that are also affects. For moderation which we usually oppose to gluttony, sobriety which we usually oppose to drunkenness, and chastity which we usually oppose to lust, are not affects or passions; but indicate the power of the mind, a power that moderates these affects.
