After a week of facing questions about lewd Twitter photos, Rep. Anthony Weiner Saturday had more explaining to do: why his Nissan Pathfinder has New York license plates but a 2007 registration sticker.
A photo of Weiner behind the wheel of his more than 20-year-old SUV appeared in Saturday's Daily News as he left his Washington home Friday night.

In March, the Roll Call, a Capitol Hill newspaper, reported Weiner owed more than $2,000 in parking tickets for violations around the Capitol and near Reagan National Airport.

If anyone has had to pay to renew their NY registration recently -this story is TOTALLY understandable! LOL!!
NY liberals - always looking out for the “poor” donchyaknow!
DC? We the People would have been “booted” after the first coupla hundred hadn’t yet been paid. But our “betters”?!!
In calif if your plates are expired by more than 6 months, the vehicle is subject to being towed and probably will be. You then have to pay all back fees and towing charges to get it out of the tow yard.
Do the passenger side doors have no handles? Just curious.
Why didn't he turn that gas hog in under "Cash for Clunkers" and buy himself a shiny new Volt? Surely, a volt would have gotten him through the New York winter! After all, they have a great public transportation system!
It really looks like the judgment that had him drop trou and snap a pic of his wiener and send it to a young student carries over to the rest of his life and should disqualify him for public service.
If you are arrogant enough to think your half swollen peepee is a work of art, don’t run for office.
Seriously? He did this? Oh good heavens, death by a thousand paper cuts is right!
The sad thing is he’ll probably win with 70% in 2012. Brooklyn and Queens of course.
You may be surprised. The Republican got 42% against him last year. Now there's another piece posted on FR claiming that Weiner's recent problems make a Republican win in his district a good possibility either in a special election if he should step down or in 2012 if he should seek re-election. But the district may not be entirely the same due to redistricting.
