Obama: 'I would resign' in Weiner's situation President talks scandal, debt ceiling in an exclusive interview with TODAY's Ann Curry

TODAY staff updated 44 minutes ago:

In an exclusive interview with TODAY’s Ann Curry that will air on Tuesday’s show, President Barack Obama said that if he were Democratic Congressman Anthony Weiner right now, he would resign in the wake of the scandal in which Weiner admitted to sending explicit photos of himself to women online.

“I can tell you that if it was me, I would resign,’’ Obama told Curry. Weiner has been the talk of the nation since he was caught sending lewd photos of himself to various women on multiple social media platforms, prompting the head of the Democratic National Party to call for him to step down and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi to demand an ethics committee investigation. “When you get to the point where, because of various personal distractions, you can't serve as effectively as you need to, at the time when people are worrying about jobs, and their mortgages, and paying the bills — then you should probably step back,’’ Obama said. Obama added that what Weiner did was “highly inappropriate’’ and that he has “embarrassed himself” and his wife and family, but said it will ultimately come down to a decision by Weiner and his constituents as to whether he will continue in office.

Obama would never be in this situation for 2 reasons
1) he is to busy having an affair with himself
2) any naked pictures he might take would be for his own self adoration

Do you suppose this is why Job One with Obama was to seal all of his records?

Obama’s version of scandal prevention...

Now hear this...

Homosexual Muslim street-trash from Kenya tells white American male to leave office because he was pursuing women.

That is all.

Arguably Zer0's situation is much, much worse.

Zer0 should show some leadership and resign now.

I just find it a stupid statement from a stupid president. Obama has a condescending look during his tour of a NC plant of energy-efficient lighting manufacturer Cree, Inc., and met with his jobs council to discuss the new initiatives. I heard on the news that Cree Inc. has more employees in China than US

If one listens to the audio it is clear he said, “I can tell you If it wuz me, I would resign.”

And how many reporters and comedians will jump on the comment as proof of Obama’s lack of intelligence? I can hear the crickets!

And how many reporters and comedians would have jumped on the comment if it had been Palin would made the comment?
