    Yes it would.

    This guy is always on TV actin like Mr. Bigshot. He's an arrogant ass on TV and plays the holier than thou thing to the hilt.

    He takes lessons in raping the camera from Senator Schumer (whose former House seat IIRC is held by Weiner).

    Now he's been kicked off that high horse.

    The "Weiner" part of his name is just the cherry on top of a well deserved public humiliation.

    He should've changed the pronunciation of his name to rhyme with with "whiner" instead of "weener".

    People use different pronunciations of names all the time. Where I grew up there is a family with the same spelling last name and their's rhyme with "whiner".

    ^ How would it "rhyme"? Wouldn't it be the same pronunciation? :huh:

    Ah, the racist of WF has spoken. It's always good to see a self-absorbed asshole like you make such statements.

    Weiner was a fool. He thought that he had the same type of charisma that his buddy Bill had. Unfortunately, he clearly does not. It will be interesting to see what the toothless, spineless weasels in the House Ethics Committee comes up with. Or will they sweep this thing under the rug the same way have with Maxine Waters.

    The house will go Blue in 2012. Beohner is an ineffective leader and it will show.

    I demand that Weiner resign.

    But only because I want someone to write the front page headline "Weiner Pulls Out."

    You've got to be kidding me. When have I ever attacked Sarah Palin? I defended Sarah Palin against misogynistic attacks. She lost me especially when she quit her job as Governor of Alaska, and she hasn't done herself any political favors since then, but I was at least consistent and defended her from sexist remarks.

    As for the Tea Baggers, again, same thing.....in fact, I was the first person ever to post about the Tea Party on this board! I was talking about the Tea Party before Sarah Palin!

    My opinion was neutral, open to hearing them out, and I gave it a fair shake then, listing where people could go across the country on April 15 2009 to participate in a Tea Party.

    I think you'll also have to put the Tea Bagger hater on someone else.

    Headline writers have been having a blast playing on this guy's name. This week I've seen:

    "A Little Weiner in the Oven"
    "Putz' Porn Star"
    "Yeah, I'm a Schmuck"
    "Weiner Says He'll Stick it Out"
    "Weiner under Pressure to Resign"

    :lol:

    I'm watching an interview with Breitbart on Foxnews and they keep flashing up next to the news ticker, "Weiner in Hot Water".

    You know those guys in the control room have to be laughing their asses off. :rotfl:

    Hmm, let's see. Could it be because he's married and he's sending pictures of his pecker to strange women?

    Voters do not like a philanderer, especially female voters. When politicians behave like power-hungry assholes who feel they are above the rules the rest of us are expected to follow, they need to be removed from office and publicly humiliated.
