The MSM won’t be able to tolerate this: a liberal getting caught lying by Breitbart and admitting it. There will be many more hit pieces on Breitbart in the near future.

Anthony “Tony the Tube” Weiner is obviously fit for Congressional duty.

i did not, er, did twitter, tweet, that photo, but i am in good shape and therefore, it is art appreciation and i will not resign.

we need people in government to start acting nobly and behaving humbly instead of the other way around.

He lawyered up and saw the civil suits flying his way. He has been well coached on damage control, but not on the continuing blowback if he stays in office. Discovery is going to be real interesting.

They asked him about 3 times and he didn’t mention Breitbart’s name until the 3rd time, and quickly added “all the other media...”

Maybe Breitbart should still show the photo. What if it had a little black bar across the middle? But still showed that it was Weiner and it was wiener.

Still protected by the MSM. Not a one asked if he was seeking professional help or psych counseling.

This is a guy who is not only a deeply disturbed predator of young women, he’s also the laughingstock of the Democratic Party.

I can just hear the House of Representatives when there is a roll call vote; the clerk calls out “Mr. Weiner” and the Huse dissolves into snickers.

I saw the press conference and the apology to AB had to be literally be drug from the skank’s twisted lips.

He wasn’t crying from remorse but the fact of being caught stone cold with his junk in his trembling hand!

specifically during a long and rambling press conference in which he seemed determined to answer every last reporter’s question. That absurd speech was just a repetition of the phrase I'm soooooo sorry. Everything else was he ain't goin nowhere so shove it.

I’m surprised he hasn’t blamed the internet for all this.

You're wrong. I posted it seconds after the actual statement.

Why did that young Republican congressman resign for just posting a bare-chested photo on the internet?

Is Mr. Weiner exempt from the same standard of behaviour?

Just asking.

Will the Republicans pay a guy to show up in a gigantic weiner suit at every one of his campaign rallies?

Weiner needs to step down...The left needs to demand it and so does the right!

Yes, Weiner, like all Dims, are exempt from standards in our political world.

One thing I’ll say though, I think he’ll be much less of a “voice” on the left for a long time. He is years away from being able to be brash again, which means he’s neutered.
