About time.


Now let's see if we can get Barney Frank and Nancy Pelosi to follow suit. :thumb:

 

[Granite]

Good riddance. He's a disgrace. If he had any shame or dignity he would've done this a while ago.

 

[chrysostom]

Good riddance. He's a disgrace. If he had any shame or dignity he would've done this a while ago.

why is he a disgrace?

do you actually have a horse in this race?

 

[Sherman]

My thoughts on Weiner: If brains were leather, he couldn't saddle a bug. :BillyBob:

 

[chrysostom]

you have to consider the entertainment value

 

[Town Heretic]

There's a great variation on the old Nixon quote to be had here, but I'm still too fond of my under one ban status. lain:

 

[Sherman]

I could use some salty quotes on him too that would be very descriptive, but I am too fond of my under one ban and under one warning status too.

"I am not a crook" ??

 

[some other dude]

Americans admire a people who can scratch a desert and produce a garden. The Israelis have shown qualities that Americans identify with: guts, patriotism, idealism, a passion for freedom. I have seen it. I know. I believe that.


Any change is resisted because bureaucrats have a vested interest in the chaos in which they exist.


By the time you get dressed, drive out there, play 18 holes and come home, you've blown seven hours. There are better things you can do with your time. (Why does this one remind me of Bammy?)


Don't get the impression that you arouse my anger. You see, one can only be angry with those he respects.

 

[Cracked]

He has stepped down and probably should have done that a while ago. I feel sorry for him and I truly hope he gets his life's priorities in order.

toldailytopic: Weinergate. Representative Anthony Weiner is resigning....

:IA: That's because those hypocritical republican meanies forced him into it....durned right-wing wacko's! :madmad:

"I can tell you that if it was me, I would resign"

Well....maybe it's for the best he step down. lain:

...what are your thoughts on this entire ordeal?

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

I always liked his "The sky is no longer the limit."

+1 for consistency against the heathen.

 

[irepjc742]

I Rep JC!

 

[Sherman]

He was roasted a long time ago by his own stupidity. He's now a bit overdone to have for dinner.

Weiner is a digrace to his office, constituents, family and himself , he does not have the character to occupy the office he holds. Good Riddance! He will not be missed... :wave:

 

[Alate_One]

There are plenty of politicians that have done worse than Weiner that are STILL in congress, from both parties. The furor over Weiner was overblown compared to that over other politicians. Anything to distract from the issues at hand.

And they should be ousted too, no argument but, ya gotta start somewhere. Clean up government one dirtbag at a time...

Meh I think it's a lot more about getting rid of a prominent democrat than it was about actually cleaning anything up. The guy sent dirty pictures. There wasn't even actual sex involved or money involved. Though he did do the stupidest thing of all which was lie about it. But really there's NO consistency.

Most Republicans didn't call for the ouster of the SC governor that lied about being with his Argentinian mistress! And he's still in office. . . . The media firestorm around that was about half what Weiner's was . . .
