DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz calls for resignation of Rep. Anthony Weiner (headline only)

I think a lot of voters are upset that Weiner was texting a 17 year old. The message was getting to the DNC: fewer votes and less money coming in.

Weiner is the Internet Raincoat Flasher. It is the equivalent of a pervert in the park flashing his privates to everyone, children included. No big deal?

Ewwwwwww!!

Bwwahhhaaa, the DUmmies are turning on Schults and Pelousi:

That’s real leadership by Wassername. It’s been- what? - two weeks this story has been unfolding? Give her credit for realizing this is going to remain a story for a long time if he doesn’t quit because - frankly - mainstream comics like Leno and Letterman have to have a whole evening’s worth of Weiner jokes ready to go. It’s just too easy to make fun of.

There’s a bumper sticker for ya: “I’m pro-Weiner, and I vote.”

That, or a job with some Obama-connected Washington or New York law firm where his name won't be on the firm's masthead but Weiner will still draw a hefty paycheck. This is politics, Democrat style, folks.

That's "politics, Democrat style" for most career hacks in D.C. -- but not in Weiner's case. The reason he's hanging onto this seat so desperately is that he has nowhere else to go. He was a political science major at SUNY Plattsburgh, and never went to law school after that like most career politicians do. He's been living at the taxpayer's expense for all of his adult life, has no profession to speak of, and is a sexual deviant who has become the laughingstock of the nation.

In short, he is probably unemployable outside of politics or the porn industry.

Yes more comes out this afternoon or tomorrow morning and it the exclusive topic of the Sunday morning talk shows.
Also, polling data probably shows most Americans don’t like a 47 year old Congressman texting a 17 year old.
The police going to see her was simply more bad publicity for the Rat party.

Do it today so by Monday it is off the radar.

[Maine Mariner]

Well, I was with the woman the night before the picture was taken

[gundog]

Probably golf. Wants to know about his long putts.

[Southack]

Debbie was just on TV last week saying that she wouldn’t comment on Weiner’s personal affairs. Goodness, how quickly she comments anyway!

[Calusa]

I wonder what they are discussing? :)

Now, is this sort of thing really necessary? /SARC

[smoothsailing]

I'm trying to reach out across the aisle in furtherance of President Obama's appeal for civility and elevated discourse in our political life

Yeah right, so am I.

She must be one of those culturally backward Christian conservative rubes...

[Calusa]

Thanks. I just never remember to append the /SARC alert.

BREAKING NEWS: WEINER HAS ASKED REV JESSE JACKSON TO PROVIDE HIM WITH SPIRITUAL ADVICE, JUST LIKE HE DID FOR PRES. CLINTON WHEN SLICK WAS SCHTUPPING THE INTERN IN THE OVAL OFFICE.

[AmericanInTokyo]

She has talked with Pelosi. They have gotten the FBI briefing. They know it is they who will look ridiculous sticking up for the weiner any more, in the aftermath of the other shoe to drop (additional pictures and vignettes). Conjecture. But I sense it in my bones. They have also obviously bounced it off focus groups and are getting SLAUGHTERED and the White House is weighing in to amputate the puss-oozing gangrenous leg before it infects the whole Democrat Body Politic.

[Unam Sanctam]

LOL!

[Cheetahcat]

Wrong the Democrat/Commie Head Loon, Obama needs to resign!
