Top Dem calls for Weiner to resign
The Hill ^ | 6-8-11 | MIke Lillis

One of the Democrats' top campaign lieutenants has called on Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) to resign.

Rep. Allyson Schwartz (D-Pa.), the head of recruiting at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said Weiner's "offensive" behavior makes him unfit to remain in office.

"Having the respect of your constituents is fundamental for a member of Congress. In light of Anthony Weiner’s offensive behavior online, he should resign,” she said in a statement Wednesday.

Her pronouncement will add even more pressure to Weiner, who's been struggling to maintain support from his party.

Tim Kaine, the former head of the Democratic National Committee, also urged Weiner to step down. Kaine said Weiner's dishonesty surrounding the incident was worse than the behavior itself.

Anthony Weiner should resign and then redeem himself in some way by penning a book spilling all the Democrat secrets.

I don’t think we are catching on the media is allowing dems to disassociate themselves from Weiner. When did the GOP ever get such a break?

Lawrence O’Donnell is yet another of the high-functioning nutcases that the MSM ferrets out and gives a national platform to.
