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.

Weiner says he's not resigning, but Weiner is a liar. Does this mean he's resigning?

I’m with you friend. I say let “the “Dirt Bag” remain in congress. Weiner will be the Democrat “gift” that gives to Republicans every time he opens his mouth. Rush Limbaugh believes the same. Nancy Pelosi has further sunk herself by not demanding that Weiner resign instantly. This Weiner episode is deep and dark and....Huma, the dutiful wife is in it up to her neck, along with Hilllary Clinton. These people are low life from head to toe!!!

I agree totally.

It’s just like BJ Clinton.

The women want him, and the men want to be like him.

It’s all about YOU, Anthony. Never mind the embarrassment to your wife, yourself (at least you should be embarrassed), your Party (provided they’re capable of embarrassment), your constitutents (provided the same) . . .

You’re a sick, selfish SOB who’s attitude is exactly what’s wrong with politics in America.

GTHO . . . and don’t ever show ur uglybutt face again.

From what I understand, his new wife is encouraging him to stay in office. They just might deserve each other...

If that’s true, wonder why Abedin is so set on Weiner remaining in office? Is the guy serving two masters....?@

Look for Rep. Weiner to take the rest of the Dems DOWN with him.

“The women want him, and the men want to be like him.”

#####

Personally, I am thrilled that I don’t know a single man or woman that fits those diseased mind-sets.

I’ll admit, women are a mystery, but I can’t imagine why any woman would want the ill-tempered, rat-faced Wiener, or the oily rapist Clinton.

“I see a robust future for Tony Weiner in the Democrat party.”

Taking the whole party down with him!

“I see a robust future for Tony Weiner in the Democrat party.”

Certainly no worse than Barney Frank’s, at least!

Prediction:
If Weiner doesn’t resign, he’ll be re-elected to the seat he holds today.
His Republican opponent will garner no more than 40% of the vote, and be lucky to get that much.

Just guessin’....

They'll hate him for it.
