How is Weiner different from Clinton? Well.. Clinton was worse.

Michael Medved, one of my favorite film critics and political commentators, asks a reasonable question: how, on  one hand, can Democrats argue that Bill Clinton should not have resigned as president after not only subjecting himself to public sexual humiliatiion but lying about it under oath, while insisting that Anthony Weiner should resign after subjecting himself to public sexual humiliation and lying while not under oath?

The big difference seems to be that Clinton broke the law, while Weiner apparently did not.

My hypocrisy detector is beeping.
