Anthony Weiner Considers Resigning After More Naked Photos Released He Took At House Gym At Rayburn House Office Building
FOX News reported tonight that Rep. Anthony Weiner is now considering resigning following the release of more naked photos of him at the House Gym in the basement of the Rayburn House Office Building
.
As a cache of embarrassing new photos appeared Sunday, Rep. Anthony Weiner finally began considering the possibility that he may have to resign.
A source close to the congressman told the Daily News that Weiner had been adamant about keeping his seat – even as the Democratic leadership urged him to quit amid daily new revelations of reckless sexting.
But the unrelenting media coverage, the demands from his party's leaders that he step down and the appearance of more humiliating photos made Weiner realize he may not be able to bull his way through the crisis after all, the source said.
TMZ published a new slew of squirm-inducing self-portraits, apparently taken in the House gym - some clothed, some not.
Several show Weiner showing off his naked body holding only his camera and his privates. In others, he is clothed or draped in a white towel, flexing his muscles as he holds a camera up to his reflection in a locker room mirror.
TMZ said the photos were sent online to at least one woman and said the House gym venue raises new questions about his use of congressional resources for his salacious cybering.

This guy really creeps me out. One has to wonder too how long it will take for Weiner’s DC staff will depart.

Weiner had known nothing but politics since he was in college. He's not a lawyer and has no skills other than those in the political world. This guy has less real world experience than Obama.

Bob, your are correct in your assessment, of the man.
The most galling thing about this whole sordid affair, other than his own arrogance, is the fact that there are so many of his fellow Democrats, who either said nothing or tried to avoid the issue. That is, up until the Media increased the pressure
All this is not surprising, of course, as it fits right into the Democratic Party's way of doing business.
It is also very telling that his pregnant wife has been so silent and non visible.
This whole thing stinks!

There's nothing here.
Not worth our time swimming in this base depravity.
Only thing that perhaps can be taken from this are those arguing epic decadence, demarcation in a nation's decline.
I don't.
Democrat Anthony Weiner - Deviance - Degeneracy - Depravity - Debauchery - Decadence - Fin de Siècle
Further confirmation that the left cannot govern because they are incapable of governing.
They will be defeated simply because they must be defeated.
No more, 'nough said on this.
