San Diego Mayor Bob Filner said Wednesday that he will pay out of his own pocket the nearly $10,000 it cost for his trip to France last month.

Filner’s announcement came one day after U-T Watchdog reported that the IRS had no record of the organization Filner said paid his tab of being a U.S. tax-exempt nonprofit.

Just like your average liberal democRAT. They get caught cheating and stealing, and only then do they pay it back.

It’s B*E*Y*O*N*D fascinating watching this scandal play out. Word out of Filner’s office is that he will tweet next week from rehab . . . but still no word where or which rehab it might be. Much mockery will happen!

Filthy Filner is such a loser, everyone is against him. He’s an embarrassment for the left and the right doesn’t like him because he’s a communist. This guy’s got very little going for him and as long as he resists resignation it will only get worse.

It’s the city’s fault. They should have trained him to know better than to accept bribes of paid vacations to France.

lol! I don’t know, at least they get groped for a living. The married professionals he was molesting in San Diego don’t.

You have to wonder if Weiner can say he got sexual harassment training. It must be so tempting if not.

He will have to go back to France for rehab.
Come back and claim it was due to the high cost domestically available services until 0care kicks in with his full support.
Then he will take another vacation on your dime, nickel, or penny.
Whatever he can get away with.
Peanuts, popcorn. Weiners?
