Well its about time someone asked him to step down. Now maybe he can spend more time with his PREGNANT WIFE! :roll:


WASHINGTON — Rep. Anthony Weiner announced Saturday he was entering professional treatment at an undisclosed location and requested a leave of absence from Congress as he faced fierce pressure from top Democrats to resign in a sex texting scandal.
An aide for the embattled New York lawmaker made the disclosure in a statement shortly after several Democratic party leaders demanded he quit for exchanging messages and photos ranging from sexually suggestive to explicit with several women online.
"This sordid affair has become an unacceptable distraction for Representative Weiner, his family, his constituents and the House," Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, said in a written statement calling for the 46-year-old married lawmaker to step down.

Hes not stepping down hes taking a leave of absence...this is just a cover to get thorugh it
 
Of course, Weiner needs treatment. He has VD of the thought process. LOL.
 
What exactly is the treatment for dumb-assitis?

I don't think there is a cure.

He is gonna probably try to use the sex addict or addicted to online crap excuse. This is his sneaky way of thinking he can get out of having to step down. I sought treatment for my fake problem and all better now so you cannot make me resign.. lol.

Honestly as much as he is a dickhead? I cannot bring myself to feel hate in my heart for this guy. Maybe cause I know the hell he probable went through as a kid with that last name. No excuse I am just saying maybe that is why he has a lovely wife but still seeking positive attention from females cause he was probably always picked on and maybe even beat up over that name. Hell we have all saw the comedy gold his name has been and have even took part in it. Again not making excuses just trying to "understand" why he is such a big dickhead.

I wish him the best and hope to hell if he does have a real problem (other than being an asshole) that he gets help, does better and goes onto a lifetime of happiness with his wifey if she decides to really stay with his jerky actions ass.
 
Okay here is the cure. Stop *hit* being *hit* a *hit* dumb *hit* ass *hit* and *hit* sending *hit* pictures *hit* of *hit* your *hit* penis *hit* to *hit* women. That will be 10,000 dollars.
 
im worried, that this is becoming a witch-hunt. are they now going to contact EVERY single person Wiener contacted on Tweeter?
 
Weiner has accepted a position to become a Twitter consultant.
 
Why does he need to step down?

He does not but a lot of folks from his own party are calling it for it. So he has did a duck and cover:)
 
he broke no laws. he had no physical contact with anyone.

if he steps down, it should be his choice.

...though, i see how this worries the Dems, as it makes them looks bad and distracts attention from the REAL bad guys.

"The real bad guys?" Pfft!!! So anyone that isn't liberal is a bad guy?

Just so you know, one of the girls this predator is sending pics of his little weiner to is a 17 year old, high school student.

But conservatives are the bad guys in this case eh?

J-mac

I thnk the guy has shot himself in the foot big time and will have to resign.
His political career over and now his marriage is in big trouble

But can you show a link that he sent a picture of his penis to the 17 yr old girl or are you just jumping on the bandwagon of salivating republicans in kicking a dem to the ground? That sounds something like you got from Fox News.

He has now had to endure what it is like to be Sarah Palin for one day. And she isn't tweeting crotch shots.

Cry me a river.

Again, if anything was "got" here, it was from watching Democrats foam at the mouth as they sling as much mud as they can hold at Sarah Palin. 25,000 email witch hunt right now.

You can cry me a river as well.

How do you know this? And if his marriage is in trouble due to cybering there wasn't a strong marriage there to begin with.

Wrong. More disinformation. You are a veritable font of misinformation. Get your ears bobbed.

No shedding tears for his stupidy.
I am only calling on people who put untruths on here to support their campaign.
You are just going to have to cry alone here .

You are correct in that I do not know the Weiners personally. But it would appear sending pics of your penis to another woman would put a big strain on one's marriage.
Perhaps your wife is more openminded than mine.
 
The liberal "fix-all" for everything... Treatment.

Sorry, but no amount of treatment will change the fact this guy is liar. That's reason enough for him to resign, but that will now be swept under the rug and he will be proclaimed "Cured" and the democrats will pretend like it never happened.

How about taking PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for ones actions... Does that even exist anymore?

He hasn't been charged with a crime yet, Grim. I think this is the end of his political career, but if he wants to tough it out a la Vitter, that's his prerogative.

I doubt very much treatment is limited to liberals. The name Ted Haggard, the gay evangelist preacher comes to mind and I'm sure there are many, many more. And there are those conservatives who want to provide treatment for turning gays to straight.
 
I don't even understand why we're talking about this. He didn't break any laws or do anything wrong other than maybe cheat on his wife, and that's between him and her. So why are we talking about this still?

I never said he committed, nor said he should be charged with, a crime. That has nothing to do with my comments.

That's what I mean.... What happened to people taking responsibility for their actions, and the public demanding that they do?

This hiding behind "I'm getting treatment" crap has it's limits and in this case those limits have been crossed. What he did is not something that getting treatment can erase.
