Weiner: I’m not resigning
WaPo ^ | 6/9/11 | Felicia Sonmez

Posted on 06/09/2011 11:49:26 AM PDT by markomalley

New York Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner maintained Thursday that he does not plan to resign his seat, despite growing calls from members of his own party for the seven-term congressman to step down in the wake of his admission that he conducted inappropriate online communications with at least six women.

“I’m not,” Weiner told a reporter for the New York Post on Thursday when asked if he planned to resign. “I’m going to get back to work as best I can.”

Weiner said that he is working on making amends with his wife, senior State Department aide Huma Abedin, who the New York Times reported Wednesday is pregnant with the couple’s first child.

"“I’m not,” Weiner told a reporter for the New York Post on Thursday when asked if he planned to resign."

Yes, you are. I'll pick the date -- July 1.

This is pretty much what Rush said today, it isn’t Obama who will destroy us, it is the 50% who vote for him!

"Nancy Pelosi, by “demanding a Weiner probe”, was actually trying to help him, by having his case filed and forgotten."

Exactly. What's happening here is his grift demands to resign must be outrageous, ie, he wants guarantees for the Mayorship, and of course he's getting "Fuggadaboutit!" in reply.

Madame Cankles will make him go, it's just a matter of when.

Weener needs to remember though that the HillBillys play for keeps.

he might get real "depressed" and take a trip over to Ft Marcy Park

Didn’t Weiner tell that porn star that he’d have a stiff member work with her?

Hard to believe...but hey, he's a dem ... she'll have to wait to see if he comes... across.

I figure the Klintoons promised Huma the Rose Garden if she married Weiner,
and now the plan has crashed, dead in the water, kaput.
Sumpin has to be done, but what? Arkancide?
The dynamic duo will think of something.

Weiner: “I’m not resigning”

Good. He just became the face of the Democrat party, and we’ll make fun of him at every opportunity.

Every Republican should be out front in the media declaring how this Weiner behavior and his refusal to resign show just how beholden the Democrat party is to its NUTROOTS base. It is the Progressives that worship Weiner and the Progressives have made it quite clear that there won’t be any undo pressure put on their man by anyone in the Democrat party. The left wing nuts are running the show, ideology trumps everything else.

Hey, don’t include me with the libtards!

I know that Clinton’s impeachment was not about sex.
It was about perjury.

But the libtard defenders of Clinton repeatedly say it was only about sex.

Both the Democrats and Republicans were wrong — Clinton’s impeachment should have been for treason.

My point here is that the libtards will say it is only about sex and thus dismiss it just as they did with Clinton.

On the other hand, if they want Weiner to go, then why did they apply a different standard to Clinton who did much worse.

That’s it! BINGO!

Make them say it, Clinton and Kennedy both should have gone, they both did far worse.

Instead those two get treated as if they were homorable men.

Methinks Weiner may have some stuff on other demrats which he’s threatening to reveal if they try to unseat him.

This is good news for conservatives as the little pervert’s story will continue to control the news cycles for the foreseeable future.

BINGO - remember Hillary still has the FBI files and will keep all the old goats in office in line.

We can only hope - but don't ever under-estimate the power of the Clintons. I just read where Hillary has interest in making a move to the World Bank!!! Calgon - please take me away!!!!
