The other day Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) started a new attack against Glenn Beck. The attack basically accuses Glenn Beck and his advertiser Goldline International of conspiring to rip off customers.
Politico: A Weiner aide forwards his advisory, headed, "'Goldline' Rips Off Consumers, Profits Off Public Fears, Likely Violates Federal Law."
"The company has formed an unholy alliance with conservative pundits to drive a false narrative and play off public fears in order to sell its products," says the release. Coming soon to MSNBC...
Glenn Beck answered this attack today by launching the website WeinerFacts.com. WeinerFacts is a blog that both mocks Anthony Weiner and sheds a light on his own misdeeds. For example check out this Weiner Fact:
The FEC (Federal Election Commission) had two cases (MURs, or Matters Under Review) about everybody’s favorite Weiner. Both cases have the same name, Friends of Weiner.
MUR 4995 resulted in a $47,000.00 fine (“civil penalty”) against Weiner because of financial misconduct in one of his reelection campaigns. MUR 5429 involved an illegal $28,000.00 loan that Weiner’s parents made to one of his campaign committees.
It’s really sad when friends and families of Weiner cause so much Weiner pain.
Humm, looks like Anthony Weiner might have entered a glass house situation.
