Rep. Anthony Weiner’s political career may not live down Weinergate in which he’s supposed to have sent compromising pictures of himself in bulging bikini briefs to a coed. But here’s a couple of Weiner facts you can parlay at your next cocktail party.
From Wikipedia: Weiner has been vocal in criticising United Nations diplomats for failing to pay parking tickets in New York City, claiming foreign nations owed $18,000,000 to the city.
However, on March 29, 2010, Capitol Hill newspaper Roll Call reported that Weiner had racked up $2,180 in parking tickets in Washington, D.C. between 2007 and 2011 and that all but one had yet to be paid before the release of the story.
Some tickets included instances in which he appears to have incurred multiple violations at the same time, such as failing to display current tags while parked in a taxi stand zone. A spokesman for his office stated that all the parking tickets have since, “been paid.
Weiner is also friends of actor Ben Affleck whom he met while Affleck was researching the role of a young and ambitious politician on Capitol Hill, for State of Play, in 2008.
“We got into a chest-to-chest shouting match over Obama–Clinton within about four minutes. Literally, people were outside the office wondering if they should go in and separate us,” Weiner has said about one of their first encounters.
