PALM BEACH COUNTY, FL---Our news partners at the Sun Sentinel report:

U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler, who represents Broward and Palm Beach counties, plans to resign from Congress.

He plans to announce his plans at a news conference Wednesday at 10 a.m. in Boca Raton.

A Democratic source with knowledge of Wexler's plans said he is likely to take a public policy job that deals with the Middle East.

Wexler, a senior member of the House Foreign Relations Committee, has long been involved in issues involving Israel and Turkey.

What did he do...upset the “Little Prince” in the White House
and get his walking papers from there?

I hope a Republican replaces him!

One of my proudest moments was shouting down this jerk in front of the Broward County Courthouse during the illegal 2000 recount. He wasn’t able to do his little interview because we wouldn’t let him be heard. It was awesome!

Buh Bye you pos! He sees the writing on the wall! Does Crist get to appoint his replacement? If so, then this man has got something coming out about him that could cause him to be forced to resign. IMHO! Otherwise the RAT Party would keep him from resigning so they wouldn’t lose his vote.

Now the moron can move to Washington, DC where his permanent job will be located and sell his Florida home. Er uh, wait.

Thanks for that info. I didn’t know about the Dems hiring a telemarketing firm for scaring seniors in Florida on election night. Strange, you’d think the big 3 networks would be quick to tell America about a story like this, right? Right???

(oh yeah... never mind.)

By the way, is it Wexler that doesn’t even live in Florida but has his primary residence in Maryland or some place like that? Or was it another slimy Dem congressman that I’m thinking of?

Oh! Please! Please! I hope it is a scandal! I bet we will never know what it is. Not with him resigning. What ever it is about, someone may have put the ultimatum to him - resign - or else!

Cool, but I’d like to see some Democrats who aren’t under investigation resign. That would make my day.
