" 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.

You disappoint me HH.  You were off by a whole two days.   ;D

Rep. Anthony Weiner used an unflattering Jewish sexual stereotype during another Facebook sexting session with a middle-aged woman, RadarOnline.com and Star magazine are exclusively reporting in a joint newsgathering operation.

In a salacious new transcript of a conversation the embattled Democrat had with the woman, who lives in Nevada but does not want to be identified, the shamed politico asked whether his social networking pen pal gave “good” oral sex.

“You give good head?” the embattled and married New York congressman asked the woman on March 16, this year.

She responded: “I’ve been told really good...and i love doing it.”

At that point, 46-year-old Weiner declared: “wow a jewish girl who sucks (bleep)! this thing is ready to do damage.”

No, the worst part is a married man over 40 Y/O in congress acting like a 16 y/o teenager on public forums like twitter and facebook with 21 y/o girls.  

Shows ridiculous judgment.

The lying is standard fare for a politician and is icing on the cake.      

yeah - I already mentioned that the judgement thing is bad but for me the lying is worse

What he did was consensual and with adults so other than the bad judgement in his personal life I really don't care.

Certainly seems in order here.  

Potential Ethics Process Regarding Rep. Weiner
by Chad Pergram | June 06, 2011

The House of Representatives ethics process on "conduct unbecoming a member" is murky.

There is no concrete "morals" clause in the House rules.

It does not appear that Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y., has done anything illegal. This is more of a judgment issue.

A referral would have to be made to the Ethics Committee.

The Ethics Committee would then have to determine whether there was enough "there, there." And if there is, they would then empanel an investigative subcommittee, which is the Congressional equivalent of an indictment.

That subcommittee would then probe potential wrongdoing and issue a report.

If it recommends punishment at the end of that investigation, the entire House would have to vote whether to punish him.

There's another option here, too.

Any member could potentially craft a resolution, which could be brought before the House, that would recommend reprimand, censure or expulsion. If ruled in order, the House could vote on such a resolution.

Of course, any tangency with Congressional resources or something deemed illegal would change the potential scope of this for the Ethics Committee.

on what grounds?

if he didn't do it on the job, it was consensual,  didn't break any laws, etc... then why would someone who did this be fired?

Oh I don't think Congress is going to expel him.  But they should absolutely punish him for abusing his office.  He called the police on a reporter who wanted to ask questions about the story.   ::)

Hopefully the voters in his district wise up and send him home next year . . . because we know this pompous jerk will probably run again.

I don't know about calling the police.  what was the reporter doing? Was the reporter told to leave and refused?

She was asking a question.   

Wiener had a hard on for anyone asking Q's about this.
