Rep. Anthony Weiner - Resigning Office per NYT

[Dos Equis]

" I deeply regret this incident and would like to first apologize to my wife, the people of the 9th district and my colleagues in Congress. My actions were reprehensible and display a serious lack of judgement. I therefore feel that I must step down from my position and resign from Congress.  I would ask that the members of the media please respect my privacy and that of my family at this time, thankyou."

3 days is my bet. Each statement and interview gets worse and we've all seen this play out dozens of times.

Yep.  Would not surprise me.

Weiner: 'I Wish' The Pic Was Me
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein
Posted on June 1, 2011 10:24:18 PM EDT by governsleastgovernsbest

How desperate is Anthony Weiner to deflect the potential scandal? So much so that he's willing to make jokes at the expense of his own manhood.

On MSNBC this evening, Weiner told Rachel Maddow "I wish" the infamous picture in question was of himself.

Good grief.  How the heck did he get elected?  And did I hear someone clapping after that tirade?

He's a fucking caricature that has no business holding public office. Completely unprofessional. But after watching something like that, him sending cock pics to some random chick on twitter really doesn't seem like much of a stretch.

Agree.  To act the way he does on national TV and in a special place like the State Capitol means he has a lack of self control and poor judgment.  Exactly what is required to send those pictures to some woman (while he is married). 

[Straw Man]

And FYI-- Straw did support the ball washing agendaPretty convenient that 6 months after the first thread on the topic was posted, you now challenge us to post the original quotation..  There's a function on here that allows you to delete prior postings. But clearly you would never use it.

I'm sure that we can all take you at your word-- If any of us had as much free time as you do, we would spend 3 hours finding the original thread, sifting through every post, finding your post and then starting a new thread exposing the quotation.  

Unfortunately, I don't live in the bay area-- therefore I have a job and a life that involves something besides the internet and ball washing.

What's so "challenging" about it?

333 started the thread about it on Sept 10, 2010

Rep. Anthony Weiner says he won't talk about his Twitter pic (Again Weiner clams up)
NY Post ^ | June 2, 2011




He's keeping his lips zipped.

Weasily Rep. Anthony Weiner said this morning he won't talk about his bulging crotch any longer.

"Today, I'm going to have to go to work," he said outside his DC office.

Weiner said he'd spent "11 hours" on Wednesday answering questions about his Twitter account and reiterated that the crotch photo that appeared on his feed had been the work of a hacker.

The CTer in me calls inside job

Weiner's job is safe, and this is something to laugh about.

BUT what did it pull off the headlines yesterday that the dems didn't want us to notice?

As long as it keeps him from mayor of NYC - im cool with it.   

The last thing we can afford here is David Dinkins redux.

your taste in mayors sucks

remember you saying you'd vote bloomberg for president?

he endorsed obama for prez- then endorsed obama's economic plan.  he invited AZ illegals to hide in NY, and he's anti-gun to boot!

weiner might be LESS liberal than that!  hahahahah

Straw you have a lot of experience in the genital washing of strangers.

Can you provide any insight as to whether the alleged picture in question is of Congressman Weiner?

Do you live here?   In fact, have you ever even been here?    No.  

Guiliani and bloomberg have both been good mayors.  

Anyone who lived here under David Dinkins remembers the horror show he was.

Wow.  Bloomberg invited illegals from AZ to sneak to NY.  He said you guys have plenty of resources for them, healthcare and welfare.

Sounds like a really "great mayor" to invite a bunch of illegal dirtbags to stink up your state.  Those same illegals you complain about - Bloomy INVITED them.  Sheesh.

Weinergate: Weiner's Wiener Continues To Make A Mess

Weinergate: Weiner's Wiener Continues To Make A Mess


**SNIP**


As for why Weiner hasn't gotten the police involved, he told reporters that he doesn't want to "make a federal case" out of it, which is why he hired private law firm, Baker & Hostetler, to look into it.


But some doubt Weiner's excuse. On NY1 last night former mayor Ed Koch pointed out that "You do commit a crime if you give false information to the police and report a crime when a crime didn't take place. I think he's in trouble...I think he has a problem."


With Weiner seemingly not letting it all out for the media, the media has already turned his attention to the politician's political prospects. While locally only the Post seems to be actively worried about Weiner's prospects of staying in Congress in 2012, there does seem to be some real concern about what this will mean for his chances of moving into Gracie Mansion in 2013. Hank Sheinkopf, a New York-based Democratic consultant, argues in the Washington Post that this could be a real irritant for him. “Sex wakes everyone but the dead,” he said. “This is a major story in New York City. No answered questions [and] no resolution equals more scandal, more sex, and a wounded Weiner.”


Meanwhile, even Jon Stewart, who came to his friend Weiner's defense on Tuesday night, couldn't help but have fun with the story on last night's Daily Show:
