Report: Weiner Finally Considering He May Have To Resign…

Inevitable at this point, it’s almost certain more photos will soon be leaked and with each batch the pressure to resign gets more intense.

WASHINGTON — 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 he step down from his party’s leadership, and the appearance of more humiliating photos made Weiner realize he may not be able to bull through the crisis after all, the source said.

TMZ published a new slew of squirm-inducing self-portraits, including several full-body shots taken in the House gym — some clothed, some not.

Several show Weiner showing off his naked body holding only his camera and his privates.

Another source close to Weiner said the congressman was surprised it took two weeks for the gym photos to surface.

    Mr. Weiner, you are a bona fide tyrant and predator. Obviously no one ever really gave you a ” lesson” after school on the proper etiqutte and how to respect others. A good ole ass whoopin and a broken beak in the 8th grade might have given you some direction.

    You will never be sorry—only sorry that you got caught…there is not one ounce of contrition in you and not one thought of really caring for anyone but yourself…your faithful “constituents” are morally bankrupt. To think and know that you were the mouthpiece for the DNC is simply deplorable but expected. You and Bill Maher will be great co-hosts….both absolute shitbags and scum of the earth.

    Sorry to see you go because you are the gift that just keeps giving.

    The Weiner Spitzer Show. I don’t think he could survive being a TV pundit. This is in the history books and will haunt him for the rest of his life. Go into the witness protection program and start a new life. Get facial surgery and change your last name then you might have a chance.

    NC governor in 2009, congressman gay suggestions on the bathroom.. all those were not entitled to resign. This guy, for less HAVE to go. Yeah, makes perfect sense. Some guys feel they are above the law, but the rest of us MUST obey. Probably that is their definition of patriotic, sell the country on the huge piling trade deficit with China while you put a flag everywhere, a flag also made in China btw. Way to go. In the meanwhile, we are concerned about this kind of low level discussion.

    Yes, probably one that involves no federal charges for engaging with minors, which would entail confiscating all his electronics. No telling what is on his home computer.

  37. Circa1940 says:
    June 12, 2011 at 8:34 pm

    Don’t let him go yet!

    He has obviously violated some federal laws by using federal property to upload his pics and text/talk the nasty, and he is eligible for impeachment due to now-provable ethics violations. The democrats don’t want this because of the long-term publicity the investigations and hearings (trials) that would occur.

    If Rep Weiner had gone outside his home or work and dropped his pants, deliberately exposing himself before an unsuspecting woman, he would be arrested and jailed.

    Why isn’t “sexting” a criminal offense when a man drops his pants, exposing himself to an unwilling viewer for his own sexual thrill?

    The first woman wasn’t a willing viewer – - First she confirmed that the pictures were actually from Rep Weiner – then she collected the evidence and turned him into the news media.

    I would say this action wasn’t cheating. Instead it was a serious act of sexual perversion. – - Cheating would mean he would expose himself to a willing recipient who would return the action by her sending him a similar picture of herself.

    I know it’s a stupid…Duuhhhh..question, but how in hell did Weiner get elected and reelected and how in hell can he be a “lawmaker?” Has anyone ever read his educational background? He barely qualifies to be an assistant night manager at McDonald’s.

    I am 71 years old and have been a conservative all of my adult life. I have lived through bad and good administrations. The only thing this administration has accomplished is to answer the question about where did all the clowns go when the circus closed?

    This administration has been a 3-ring circus from the get-go, and the democrats and the republicans are all card holders. At the moment, Speaker Boehner is the featured clown.

    Come on, we are well aware and the realization of whats happening in our
    beloved America and it has us so down with this imposter in the White
    House, this is a small price to pay for what this moron has done and the
    effect it has caused on the people….

    Its either laugh or cry at this time, change is coming and you can bet your
    life it will be for the good…….You can kick us in the face every now and

    “You can kick us in the face every now and then but by damn you can’t kill us all…”

    Amen, bro! Along with many Americans, I have lived through a few hard times that this nation has experienced. It was tough, it was often long, but we got there.

    Granted, Obama and his fellow-socialists have brought the old girl (America) to her knees but she has been on them before. Americans will tolerate quite a bit of being pushed around, but we do have a limit.

    As the Japanese Admiral said after their attack on Pearl Harbor (paraphrased) “I am fearful that we have just wakened a sleeping giant. They will come, and they will come with great resolve.”

    The Obama-induced devastation is immense. It is going to be tough and long, but we will get back on our feet again.

    thought ALL Jewish Libs were , at least, lawyers. Kick him out and
    he may not be able to find a legitimate job (other than washing windows
    and cleaning toilets on one of the Soros’ estates.)……hee hee……..

    Weiner is financially desperate.

    Unless further information surfaces that reveals he has also scammed the system and went from rags to riches while in office, he is one of the few that lives on a salary of about $150k, and I believe his wife’s income is nearly the same.

    Apparently he owes $15k to $20k on one or two credit cards, which means he has either charged some expensive items or has been unable to pay off the charges monthly…or he is paying blackmail. :-)

    Who is going to hire the creep…especially if more dirt surfaces… which I believe will?
