Just coming over the radio. He is getting professional help, requesting a temporary leave of absence. His shrink is going to pronounce him “cured” so he can come back to congress, lol.

Some are saying they heard on ABC Radio News that he is seeking treatment. Oh: Here is the latest from Fox News:
“Rep. Weiner will request a short leave of absence and is reportedly seeking treatment after top Democratic leaders called for his resignation following sexting scandal.”

Fox now has posted that “Shorty” Weiner will be gone for a short leave of absence. WLS-AM reports he will take leave to “become a healthier person”....what.... a FAT FARM?

What a moron. Get treatment and get a pass, didn’t Southpark do a program about this with teachers? LOL, gosh I hate the political class. The fact we even have such a thing anathema to our founding, but here we are I guess.

It’s going to get interesting if Weiner decides to threaten to expose the details of his sham marriage to Hillary’s lesbo lover if Pelosi and Wasserman-Schultz don’t back off.

He should resign first, get treatment then pick up Olbermann’s spot on MSNBC.

But noooooooooo.

What a weener

The treatment will attempt to mitigate any legal repercussions from sending inappropriate pictures to minors.

His legal team looked at this and found that he is in big trouble.

IMO

Short leave of absence for a short weiner.

No way should a Republican EVER resign again! These democraps are pulling out every trick in the book to stay in power, and Rep. Chris Lee (and crybaby Boehner) gave away the store last time when was forced out in record time.

Nice guys finish last, I guess.

In unrelated news...

There has been an upsurge of Democrat politicians “friending” Breitbart on FaceBook.
