probably because he was refusing prior, and there was a lot of speculation that once his wife returned from her trip she'd urge him to resign (like many others, including Pelosi)

As you said, like many others. I was just wondering why it was 'the wife' who had the power here and not the President, Pelosi, Reid, and a plethora of his colleagues who had all chipped in in the meantime since his original refusal.

This^^^.

One can be told by all your colleagues to quit and it can be ignored. When the wife says quit, you better quit. When she returned he exited. Unless, of course, it was Hillary who made him quit. No she didn't even ask her hubby to step down. So it must be the wife.

1. I don't care if political officials have affairs if both parties are consenting adults.
2. I do care when they are hypocritical about it (as pointed out earlier, preaching family values and then acting the opposite, acting like allowing gay marriage will ruin the institution of marriage and then ruining their own marriage, etc.)
3. I do care if they engage in sexual harassment.

Nobody mentioned Clarence Thomas as one who got away with it. Perhaps most here are too young to remember Long Dong Silver and Anita Hill. I wonder if he would be appointed in today's culture.

Support for Weiner had softened to such an extent that he was forced to withdraw....

And what a shame. He was such a nice man....
right.

I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't "see" what those women saw in him. I'm sorry I'm sure there are better looking men in congress then him. Before I saw a picture of him I kind of assumed that he was quite attractive and that is why so many women continued to have sexting relationships with him. But man...impo...he is ugly. I don't know what those women saw in him.

The person I feel sorry for is his wife. Poor lady. Poor kid (since she's pregnant, well I heard she is).

LMAO!


On another note, all scandal/resignation/political affiliation aside. I cant say I'm sad to see him go. I've always thought he was an arrogant jerk, though some of his shouting matches in Congress were quite entertaining. A few times I thought the veins/arteries in his neck were going to burst!

this was a funny letter that a local morning radio station wrote and read on the air.

With Congressman Anthony Weiner’s resignation, the big question is, what’s going to happen to the Weiners?” Depends on who you ask. Some members of congress say he should have resigned and others believe Weiner should have stuck it out. Weiner’s pregnant wife Huma is telling friends its been days since she even thought about Weiner. She said Weiner is the last thing on her mind. As for his next move, Wiener got testes and said he has many balls in the air, but he has not made a decision on his future plans. He said “I just want to find a warm place to hide for a while.” The congressman was defiant prior to his resignation, telling reporters “let me tell you about my family. Weiners might get bruised, Weiners might get hurt, but a good Weiner never shrivels up and goes away.” House majority John Boehner (pronounced boner for the sake of this letter) says that a congressman is supposed to have morals. Weiner really sticks out. Boehner says on this father’s day weekend, “I can’t help but think about papa Boehner. He would be ashamed at how this Weiner has behaved.”

Nah, I see it. Some of it's the power, but mostly it's the attitude. I'm still on the 'I'd hit that' side of the fence, were it not for the assholery.

I find him attractive. Joy Behar said something to the effect of "I like a skinny (NY) Jewboy."

The fact that he's friends and former summer house roomie with Jon Stewart makes him even handsomererererer. Jon Stewart is just my cup of tea.

Sorry that was my fantasy life, did I type that out loud?
