Is it possible to remain a sitting member of Congress after a photo of your (ahem) standing member has been released on the Internet? Were about to find out.
Because Anthony Weiner isnt going anywhere. Despite all the texts and pics and personal humiliations, Rep. Weiner will not resign. Period.
And if you dont believe me, ask Bill Clinton which, by the way, is what Weiners doing right now.
Rep. Anthony Weiner explained himself and apologized for his conduct to Bill Clinton, Politico.com reported yesterday.
What did he apologize to Clinton for?
Perhaps Weiner feels bad about undermining Clintons efforts to convince Americans the Democrats were the family values party.
Regardless, Weiners off-the-record phone call to Clinton made it into the press, which is exactly what he wants. The more Weiners name appears in news stories with Bill and Hillary, the harder it is for Democrats to stand up and demand his resignation. Which if you check the record they havent.
And unless a particularly icky photo appears, or some evidence of actual contact between Weiner and his Twitter-ettes, they wont.
As of this writing, not a single national Democratic office holder has called for Weiner to resign. When New York Republican Rep. Christopher Lee posted a photo of his bare chest on Craigslist a few months ago, the GOP leadership had him disappear faster than a witness at a mob trial.
But Democrats dont resign.
Rep. Charlie Rangel was caught red-handed cheating on his taxes, hiding income and improperly using rent-controlled housing, but hes still a proud member of Congress.
Tim Geithner was caught cheating on taxes. His job today? Treasury secretary.
And then theres Big Daddy himself, Bill Clinton. Cheater, liar, perjurer, obstructor of justice much of it...

There’s an old book titled:
“You Can Trust the Communists (To Be Communists)”
Lost track of it, but last time I read it they fit the descriptions to a T.
Thanks and Best Regards.
The new revision is:
You Can Still Trust the Communists: To be Communists, Socialists, Statists, and Progressives Too
David Noebel, who did some minor revisions, is a big "worldview guy" and runs/ran Summit Ministries' Understanding the Times.
“You Can STILL Trust the Communists: To be Communists,
Socialists, Statists, and Progressives Too”
Wonderful first book, this one must be even better!
Thank You!
LOL, good point!
