. With all the yelling and stuff, I couldn’t hear him very well…
Did I hear him say
“I’d like to thank my wife, Huma Rodham Weiner, for her support in these difficult times.“…
Or was that just my imagination?
bump for home viewing
He thanked his parents for “giving me my values”.
They are gonna want to smack him silly!
Sounded like someone said “Four score and seven inches...”
LMAO
Larry Craig said he was resigning too, but he didn’t. He finished his term. If Weiner doesn’t follow through he’ll be hounded until he goes. He’s stupid, but probably not that stupid.
Does anyone actually think he will get counselling or “rehab”? I suspect he’s already lining up his next gig, and will hire a PR outfit, not a shrink. Everything he’s done has been aimed at preserving his political career and there’s no way he thinks it’s over now.
My favorite line was “Pervert!” from a heckler.
Why does it need 2b the end of him? After all, after Spitzer’s ho scandal he was gone for what, 6 months..? He was the top law enforcement officer in NY state —he was in charge of BUSTING the people he turned out to privately like and was paying.
In Spitzer’s case his political recovery was not really even forgiveness —a lot of the public have simply thrown up their arms and don’t care any longer.
It’s resignation —same thing with the debt. People hear “trillion” and no longer think about it.
The great majority of the Weiner flap (including FR posts) is a bunch of vapid nonsense.
Here’s the REAL issue!!!!
“Politics is the entertainment branch of industry.” -Frank Zappa
Or vegetables!
When will he be promoted to an even more important job? And what job will that be? Anyone want to take a stab at that?
No apology to the targets of his tweets.
Just because he stood in front of camera’s and ‘says’ he’s resigning means nothing.
He is still a current congressmember.
And will be until it’s announced on the floor that he is no longer a congressmember.
Corrupt media want you to believe he ‘has resigned’. Last week they told us he ‘went to rehab for 2 weeks. Wasn’t true either.
It’s not true. In the meantime, how long does he continue to collect pay and benefits from us?????
