Pelosi blasts Weiner, Filner: Do your therapy in private

34 minutes ago Pelosi blasts Weiner, Filner: Do your therapy in private Posted by CNN Senior Congressional Producer Deirdre Walsh and CNN's Ashley Killough

Washington (CNN) – House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi tore into Anthony Weiner and San Diego Mayor Bob Filner, saying Thursday the two former House Democrats should "get a clue" as they face backlash for their questionable behavior with women.

"Let me be very clear, the conduct of some of these people that we're talking about here is reprehensible," Pelosi said at her weekly press conference on Capitol Hill.

Her comments came after Rep. Jerry Nadler, a fellow Democrat who represents part of Manhattan, made biting comments about Weiner, saying Wednesday night that the New York City mayoral hopeful "needs serious psychiatric help."

Weiner admitted this week that he continued sending racy messages more than a year after the same habit forced his 2011 resignation from Congress.

Meanwhile, on the West Coast, a third woman came forward Tuesday accusing Filner, who served in Congress for two decades, of sexual harassment.

Both Democrats indicated they're in need of professional help. Weiner said this week that he's in therapy for his problem, while Filner has openly stated he needs "help" and has been "clearly doing something wrong."

Pelosi chided the men for their actions and said they should address their therapy sessions away from the spotlight.

"It is so disrespectful of women, and what's really stunning about it is they don't even realize, they don't have a clue. If they're clueless, get a clue. If they need therapy, do it in private," she said.

Look at the Democrats, trying to distance themselves from people they supported.

Right on. This would have been OK with Nan if they only wouldn't have got caught. Now she wants it brushed under the table.

Those are the fruits of your ideology that you are complaining about, Nan-chee . . . you should be enjoying it.

If they need therapy, do it in private," she said.

What she didn't say was that as long as the DNC need them to keep the office "blue", they'll get unswerving support to hang on to the job.

therapy?

I certainly didn't hear the words "apologize", "take responsibility", "resign" (Filner), or "drop out" (Weiner). Curious.

They all need therapy.

Articles that explain how modern liberals suffer from a mental disorder.
