Unintentionally funny moment of the day: Weiner tells rude heckler to “beat it”
I gotta admit, even for a serial jerk like Weiner, this heckler was incredibly rude … especially considering she was in front of kids when she went on her profanity-laced tirade (LANGUAGE WARNING):
Anthony Weiner was roasted tonight in Brooklyn.
The embattled mayoral candidate faced down his angriest heckler to date in the shadow of the Barclays Center, fending off repeated f-bombs from a woman who claimed to be a former Weiner voter.
βYou are disgusting! You are an embarrassment of a third-generation native,β said Jane Borock, 35, as she waded into a meet-and-greet with voters in a plaza bordering Atlantic Avenue.Β βYour little overnightΒ sleepover in public housing. F*ck you! Go back to your little Hamptons house.β
Mr. Weiner, still playfully quizzing a mother and a young girl, tried to calm the woman down. βYouβre very passionate. I appreciate your view.β
βIβm passionate? More passionate than you on Twitter. Iβm a social media expert. Get someone to handle your shit! You areΒ disgusting.Β Disgusting,βΒ she railed. Ms. Borock, wielding a camera phone, then turned to the press surrounding her. βAndΒ f*ckΒ you all for covering β¦β
βWhoa! Whoa,β said Mr. Weiner, growing angry. βYouβve got little kids here. Youβve got little kids here β¦ just donβt curse.β
βLittle kids?! You haveΒ NOΒ right to talk about little kids β¦ Talking about little kids? Social media? You wanna see some Twitter action?β she demanded.

As Ms. Borock, an art director, vented to reporters, Mr. Weiner continued to meet voters and take pictures. But the antics continued when Mr. Weiner was approached by a man wearing a small white fedora who said he was homeless, and asked: βWhen you become mayor, will you still be on the Internet showing yourself?β
βUh, no,β Mr. Weiner said.
Ms. Borock, still railing about the affordable housing that she said the new Barclays Center had displaced, re-entered the fray after a brief lull. Mr. Weiner, however, was no longer willing to stomach Ms. Borockβs wrath without a fight.
βOh, take is easy. Lighten up. You put your show on. Why donβt you beat it? Beat it!β Mr. Weiner shot back, strutting in front of his sign-holding volunteers.
βBeat it?β Ms. Borock, incredulous, said back.
Several men to the side yelled encouragements for Mr. Weiner.
Ummm … well, the double entendre-fest continues. That’s all I’ll say about that.
In related news, Mr. Weiner’s former online mistress, Sydney Leathers recently did a “bikini photo shoot” for the NY Post,Β now has a porn video out and is giving “tips” on how to “seduce politicians.” Sigh.
I’m not even a voter in the NYC mayoral race and I’m already ready for it to be over. Β Please, NYC Democrats, do the right thing for once and don’t pick Mr. Weiner to be your nominee for mayor. Β Please?
