Congressman Anthony Weiner today sensationally admitted he had exchanged a series of photos and messages of an explicit nature with at least six women. In a shocking confession, the shamed politician was close to tears as he broke down and told reporters he had lied about sending explicit pictures in a bid to protect his wife and family. But despite the humiliating apology, the Congressman repeatedly refused to resign. In an extraordinary press conference in Manhattan this afternoon, Mr Weiner said: 'I have made terrible mistakes that have hurt some of the people I care about most.

Is the congressman exposing himself to ridicule?
He’s a shoo-in now to be a future Democratic nominee for POTUS.
Coming "clean" they call it? /s. This degenerate knows that this is the only way to "keeps serving his constituents..."
Let's come clean people... Politicians by nature are unprincipled bastards - with few exceptions - whose only "principle" is to enrich and protect their a** above all else... then they try to fool us and stupid that we are, we buy most of it!
Being an "elected" official is a fantastic job!... good benefits, good money, good for the egos who crave attention but most important, it's almost a guarantee to become very rich by selling us out. They are all millionaires... just by virtue that they are so "smart" and made the "right investments," or could it be because they are basically crooks? /s...
Republicans, Dems, whatever!... demand MORE from your politicians... They owes to act responsibly and act with a degree of dignity and decency.
Character matters!... IT MATTERS... A LOT!!!
Weiner is only one more in a long line of pols who have disgraced themselves and their offices (the beat goes on). The amazing thing is that despite their transgressions, they often get re-elected! One well known example is Wilbur Mills, Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee:

I will not be satisfied with his “apology” until he recites the full John Cleese apology from “A Fish Called Wanda” while being held by his heels outside a high window by a madman named Otto - and then resigns.
Narcissist are so arrogant. They often sink there own ship, thinking they are bullet proof and brilliant. When really they are just idiots often getting caught red handed.
Wow. How did you get a picture of Huma at home talking with her husband last Friday.

Lefty weiner-licker Amanda Marcotte blames Weiner's troubles on "misogynist Republicans".
How's that working for you, babe?
Nope, they’re fully defending him saying he did nothing wrong.
And Fred Barns on the Fox Report said this in tonights Fox News Panel discussion . These Cadillac Republicans are a big part of what’s wrong with the Republican party today ?
I see no clean wiener in this article.
This time the demi-emperor really had no clothes is more than a figure of speech.
Are rules only for conservative idiots? It’s all about furthering their communist inspired agenda. When personal power is more important than respect of the the electorate, then it is time for new people get new representation.
No dignity ..he likes his job, he has enough spare time to send porn on twitter.. a REAL job would never allow that
In the Dem’s eyes, Weiner is now Presidential material.
But will the Clintons forgive him for stealing Huma from Hillary?
The real question now is how many more lewd pictures are out there and is he susceptible to blackmail? Anyone in this position cannot be trusted because of that danger.
Anyone believe Weiner came totally clean?
