If he does resign, what awful liberal thing will replace him?

Think he was emulating someone? Perhaps he now wants to be called "Tiger" Weiner.

Now Nancy Pelosi is calling for an ethics investigation into Weiner’s tweets.

He's done.

Just heard ABC National News...”A Congressmans sex life should have nothing to do with his job”. And so, it begins.

Bush’s fault. De-regulation. Halliburton.

To his knowledge, they were all of age....

I think we know where this is going :)

ABC might want to reconsider.

Well, he may be right. I mean isn't that, like, more, european -- ish, more French. Think DSK. Technology literate people in the social media universe really don't have time for this kind of nonsense. /Sarc.

Oh really, what about the blackmail angle? What if Al Qeda had gotten those pics and used them to have leverage on a sitting U.S. Congressman?

Right, because no foreign power has ever used homosexuality or infidelity to pry state secrets out of a politican. It’s never happened.

Excellent.

Wait - the way I heard it is that leaders, especially those in high profile public positions - should avoid THE APPEARANCE OF IMPROPRIETY.

Interesting that lying, cheating, or stealing can get you kicked from a military academy. Thing is, the officers that run the place are actually held TO A LOWER STANDARD!!!!

This momo probably JUST SENT a couple of his constituents to either Colorado Springs, Annapolis, or West Point.

Guys like this should be JAILED, in a maximum security lock up. I here the sex there is adventurous, to say the least.

I think just think he's like a human STUXNET worm eating up the Dem caucus from the inside out. Every few days a new tawdry post. A new frenzy. Anybody taking victory laps over NY 26 today? Nah, he killed that momentum. I say let it ride congressman!!

Is Queen Pelosi also asking for an inquiry into herself?

Only one problem. As a congressman he is privy to classified information and his conduct directly opens him up to blackmail. This is serious business and if does not resign immediately he should be removed.

Not likely. Norah O’Donnel just said on MSNBC that in “ most countries, progressive ones, what Weiner posted is considered art, why just stroll through the museums in Greece and Italy and even on the thoroughfares, even little children can see images of male genitalia everywhere!”

In the Democratic Party, stuff like this makes you a rising star, this is considered a career-enhancer.

The Dems in Congress won’t condom his behaviour, will they?
Ya think they’ll hold a Special Erection in New York soon?

Barney and Anthony could take their act on the road, call it the ‘Frank and Weiner’ tour. Your buns are ours.

A "his" and "hers" show.
