Too bad, but a question:

Does resigning still leave him vested and eligible for his government retirement pay?

I wonder what kind of punishment would be given to Weiner in Huma’s culture?

None, because he's the man.

First trimester, full of changing hormones and likely to kill at any moment. Also a good reason not to have her driving. (ducks)

I read that he is still eligible for a pension...$37,000 a year starting at age 62.

Hardly anything to laugh about.

By that logic, a good reason to not let women drive at all! (ducks even lower)
