I think that outfit looks good on EVERY DEMOCRAT.

In a world in which it is “normal” for a person to cross-dress or claim to be “a woman trapped in a man’s body”; this guy seems pretty normal to me.

Resign? I want him to be the poster child for his party.

He should get his picture taken with Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack who as governor of Iowa dressed up like Winnie The Poo.

Not knowing the context, I don't have a problem with the tiger outfit even if he was trolling for "furries" on craigslist or wherever they hang out.

Looks like an Asian tiger to me!

trolling for “furries”
****************
There were some threads awhile back started by some guy that was on some computer internet “game” where the players were animals. Pretty much an alternate world for him (it was pretty weird!).

“Animal Plant” had a couple of shows on these “furries” or whatever, said there were several types, four maybe. Some dress up as animals, others say they are or have a special link to a specific animal, like “Lizard Man.” It was weird.

Writing GOP in the headline and Rep. David Wu in the lead sentence is no accident. The casual reader will assume David Wu is a Republican. I detest the DNC media.
To: Frantzie
Even as Wu faces pressure to quit, some of his top political supporters are sticking by him. "We support David Wu because he's a strong supporter of working families," said Arthur Towers, political director for the Service Employees International Union in Oregon. "Clearly he's going through some personal health problems, and now is not the time to change our position." Richard Schwarz, executive director of the American Federation of Teachers in Oregon, said Wu is entitled to seek medical care. "We have no reason at this point to not support him," Schwarz said.
So, going insane is not enough to make the SEIU or the AFT to rethink their support.
I'm sure they'd even think it a plus. Easier to control him!

Thank you! That’s a hysterical pic—just priceless. I’m not sure it’s the basis for resignation, though. I’ve seen Michelle go out in public looking far more fashion-challenged, and she’s still the FLOTUS.
