SALEM, Ore. (AP) -- Seven-term Democratic Rep. David Wu faced increasing pressure Wednesday to step down amid a series of bizarre revelations in recent days about his mental health, including a photo he sent to staffers during his re-election bid showing him wearing a tiger costume.
The state Republican chair and one of Oregon's largest newspapers said Wu should resign, but Wu says he has no intention of quitting.

You know, unless it was a picture of him having sex while wearing the tiger costume, I don’t see what the big deal is.

Leave the guy alone. If Gabrielle Giffords can keep her job, so should he.

I hope that they keep up the pressure. Wu probably won’t resign, but it’s still possible. Now is the best time to have a special election.

Well?...It depends upon the costume. Was a church Halloween Party, or a kinky GLBT parade?

Photo’s been posted on the net. It’s not that weird. It seems like this was only one of a series of bizarre actions. He’s had staff quitting and asking him to check into a mental institution.

There is one fact that we can glean from this story: The “Furry Caucus” has at least one member.

Considerning the pics of Al Franken and John Kerry, a tiger costume is tame!

He’s just another frigging liberal on the West Coast. Bizarre behavior is expected and I’m surprised he’s not being rewarded somehow.

OK not a good look. You’ve really got to be Alyson Hannigan to pull that look off.

LOL. Kerry has him beat by a country mile.
Which just goes to show you that Tiger Boy might be the most sane Democrat in the Congress.
