Erections have consequences
New York Post ^ | 6/6/11 | Editor

Posted on 06/06/2011 8:46:41 PM PDT by SmithL

Let us declare with certitude the obvious: Rep. Anthony Weiner has disgraced his office, and himself, and he needs to quit.

Never mind that he went before the TV cameras yesterday, cried on cue and assumed "responsibility" for a litany of offenses to common decency -- including sending lewd messages and revealing photos to young women on Twitter, and then lying about it.

Repeatedly and egregiously.

But there is a difference between taking "responsibility" for what one has done, and accepting the full consequences of those actions -- which in Weiner's case would require his resignation.

Confucious say: Man that tweets his weiner will not survive another erection.

I have not heard it mentioned, but I think Wiener lied again at the presser when he said he sent the pic as “a joke”. I think this clown has a problem, and humor has nothing to do with it. Too bad Larry didn’t have this technology in 1999.

It his business and has nothing to do with his job. I listened to his entire press conferance. He held nothing back in his apology and blamed noone but himself. Ill disagree with his politics but I wont cross the line to use politics as a weapon in this case. That type of attitude is what is killing politics in this country and keeping us from serious debate

Aloha Smitty!

That pathetic apology session to the press today will have the same effect as inhaling smelling salts to treat diarrhea. They're already all over this tonight and I suspect they'll be there tomorrow...and the next day...and all next week.

If we can’t get rid of them for the right reasons, then let’s get rid of them for the wrong reasons. And have a blast doing it!

Would not want to be in his house.

He may not want to be either. He should just resign and stop the farce already - since they have a worse picture.

An old Chinese Gentleman goes to the Optometrist because everything looks a little fuzzy.

The Optometrist examines him and says, I have some bad news, it looks like you have Cataracts.

The old Chinese Gentlemen gets really upset and yells at the Optometrist, I don't have a Cadarac, I have a Rincoln!
