Weiner is pulling out

[The Dude 206]

He should have been long gone, that he wasn't speaks volumes about the dumbing-down of even the most common -sense of decency.

Even though he brought it on himself in grand fashion, I hope this becomes a turning point in his life so that this is not the last thing he is known for.

As my Mom used to say "There but by the grace of God go I".

Were you equally outraged by Larry Craig, David Vitter, and Mark Foley? Or were you like the rest of the conservative hypocrites and when it concerned republicans, you cry for people to put down the torches and allow the constituents to deal with it? I suspect the latter seeing as David Vitter is still a member of the senate, and you have said nothing of his indiscretion. What Vitter did was ILLEGAL, whereas what Weiner did was just stupid. So refreshing to see someone who can see beyond their own partisan hackneyed beliefs.

From time to time as the occasion called for it.

Do you say that to your kids?

Now hold on for a second. Mark Foley and SC Governor Mark Sanford were both Democrats.

At least for the purposes of what passes for news reporting on Fox.

I wanted Weiner to stay. Dammit.

Mr Floppy strikes again, eh?

[Gary and Alla 3,694]

Mr Floppy strikes again, eh?

No. I have favored him staying from the start. Read up on it or remain ignorant. I am pro-choice.

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

I have favored him staying from the start.

I can confirm that.

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

String pull - classic phrase #1. I am pro-choice.

I can confirm that.

Oh I see. Well... I wasn't talking about flip flopping

I can confirm that.

He should have stayed until next year and given the people that elected him the decision whether he stayed any longer or "got resigned" That is why we have elections.

I think he's found a niche.

Why would I be "equally outraged" over any of these scandals as each one has it's own circumstances?

In some cases censure might be more appropriate, I am not familiar with the Vitter case but foley was beyond censure due to the age of the boys he was chasing and the closeness of the offense to the work place.

Foley, another Homosexual, (why are there so any gay scandals when gay men are like 3% of the population?)

should have got the boot or possible censure.

Just because you live with political blinders on..... no need to project that charge on others.

Weiner was a total, steroid douchebag with something out to prove. Had plenty of time to flex in the gym, rub his abs with oil, and tweet his rockstar honeys. Little miss misfit showing he reached the pinnacle of power in the congressional gym with a towel on. He had the time to build up his body but not do much for the American people. He lost his common sense and chatted with porno stars and teenagers. Had a beautiful wife , but that was not enough. The Weiner man, Yea, this guy shoulda stayed in office, sure , right....now back to reality and the trillions of dollars deficit and no comfortable future for most Americans.
