Ah, Anthony Weiner, just when we thought we'd had enough, you reel us back in with your latest comments in GQ Magazine. The former Congressman (D-N.Y.) and former New York City mayoral candidate, who channeled his inner Latin-lover with his sexting alias, 'Carlos Danger,' recently revealed his privates in GQ -- his private feelings that is!

The remorseful Wiener told GQ that when he's asked about the status of his marriage to his wife, long-time aide to Hillary Rodham Clinton, Huma Abedin, it doesn't affect him as much as it does her.

"I duck it as best I can," Weiner said. "But her reputation has become the Woman Who Married an Idiot and Stuck with Him. More of it rolls off my back, because that's the way I am constitutionally. She's more sensitive."

"I'm just an empty, soulless vessel, so it doesn't hurt me as much," Weiner continued.

GQ writer Marshall Sella points out that Weiner's "soulless" remark was delivered "with an utter lack of humor." So should we feel bad? Not so much, he's made his bed and now he's lying in it - and quite frankly, he's lucky he's not lying there alone.

It would be an understatement to say that 2011 wasn't a good year for Weiner. The world as he knew it would never be the same, both personally and politically, when it was revealed that he was sending lewd messages to several women. It was the sexting scandal heard round the world that not only lost him his Congressional seat and a fair shot at the New York mayoral race, but also set off a relentless media storm, drawing people from around the globe to get a glimpse of the "American Sexter."

Weiner was the butt of countless jokes -- from "Late Night" talk show host, David Letterman, who based a skit on "Carlos Danger: Gaucho of Love," The New York Daily News featured a headline that read: "The Tip of the Weiner," and on "Face the Nation," a bewildered Bob Schieffer was calling him a "flasher."

But were these severe public lashings of his reputation really warranted, or was it the perfect storm for the press to create the persona of a ridiculous buffoon or even a creepy villain?  

"The realities of the campaign didn't always match the caricature that so enthralled the tabloids," GQ points out. 

"Such as this incongruous fact: Weiner was a deeply likable man. The press treated him as though he'd always been a loathsome miscreant who'd apparently found an unlocked window and snuck into the government. No one rises up through the City Council, then through twelve years in the House, purely by being a relentless prick. Yet he was so easy to cast as one. He had the look of an aggressor. The front of his skull sometimes seemed as though it wanted to shove straight through the tight skin of his face. Any elegance he did possess was undercut by the fact that he looked like a freeze-dried Bobby Kennedy."

"Maybe I don't have the greatest connection with the emotional sh.. going on," Weiner said. "But when it comes to looking at a problem in the city and how to fix it, that's where I'm at my best. That's where I'm good."

But then he continues to have those 'foot-in-your-mouth' moments where his intentions may start out good, but then end up being offensive or misinterpreted.

"I have no desire to walk into a bar and pick up a woman," he said. "I love my wife."

"And maybe if the Internet didn't exist?" he added. "Like, if I was running in 1955? I'd probably get elected mayor."

Sorry, 'Carlos Danger,' it does exist and you've been exposed in more ways than one. Imagine what this "empty, soulless vessel" could have been capable of back then, being really under the radar.

But under the radar he has not been, and he continues to be in the spotlight. Hopefully, for his wife's sake they can both move on and put this sexting scandal behind them. After all, her feelings have been the greatest casuality thoughout this entire debacle -- whether you view her as weak or strong to stand by him.

"One thing I'm grateful for is that now I'm under no obligation to answer anything like this," Weiner told GQ of questions on his marriage. "But we've had a very rough time. It causes me a great deal of pain in the way [Abedin] gets reported and the way she gets discussed. Her treatment in the press has been rough. It pains me because I deserve it. She doesn't."
