Poor Lil' Huma

Poor lil’ Huma, croaks the liberal media. A wifey ensnared in her infamous husband’s sordid sexual adventures. Huma Abedin is a victim — victimhood being a checkbox for libs and a handy excuse for anyone who runs afoul the law, stupid choices, indecency, laziness, Faustian deals with the devil, trumped-up racism, trumped-up homophobia, trumped-up xenophobia, real political corruption, hand-washing compulsion, and whatever else can be appended to victimhood.

Poor lil’ Huma is a victim, all right. She’s a victim of her own self-willed choice; of a match made not much from kismet than cold calculation. If Huma’s a victim, then Barney Frank’s squeeze never ran a brothel out of Barney’s townhouse.

The dirty little not-so secret is that the liberal establishment is circling the wagons around one of their own. Hillary Rodham Clinton, wagon master. Abedin is a close confidant of Hillary, ergo, she runs in very high circles among Democrat and liberal power elite. She is an ambitious woman who is considered to have a very promising future politically or there related. She is an insider with plenty of insider’s knowledge.

Hill and her allies are determined to save Abedin from what amounts to a marriage calculated to help boost Abedin’s fortunes but has gone terribly awry. Awry, that is, in terms of the initial damage control failing to squelch Tony Weiner’s sex scandal. Savvy Huma Abedin didn’t even have a teenie-weenie hint that her beau had certain tastes sexually, like exhibitionism? Tony Weiner, who tweeted photos of his genitalia hither and yon?

Come on. Let’s sell you the Brooklyn Bridge. What say?

When Abedin tied the knot with pre-vert Tony Weiner, Tony was still riding high politically, a — shall we say, ballsy – lib’s lib with nowhere to go but up in the House Democratic Caucus… or, eventually, the U.S. Senate, New Y-ork’s governorship, or in the Big Apple, Tony’s stomping grounds, as fabulously rich and inbred Emperor Mike Bloomberg’s successor.

It was a marriage made in liberal secular heaven. Young, pretty Muslim Huma Adedin ties the knot with middle-aged, homely, Jewish, up-and-comer Tony Weiner. Fantastic storyline, that pairing: Mohamed meets Moses, or some such. A power relationship with a real twist, it was doubtlessly fancied.
