The Next Statement Weiner Will Make is "I Resign"
We've sat through how many days of Congressman Weiner statements now?
Well he made more today.
Weiner said in a statement today that he indeed did send explicit photos of himself. He made the statement Wednesday as an X-rated photo that he purportedly took of himself turned up on the Internet.
The photo, which shows Weiner's weiner, was published by a website after conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart showed it to the hosts of Sirius XM radio's Opie & Anthony Show.
Separately, officials say Weiner's wife, Huma Abedin, is pregnant. A spokesman at the State Department, where she is a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, had no comment, but several Democrats said the couple had told their friends.
Weiner is facing calls for the first time for his resignation from Democrats, led by Rep. Allyson Schwartz of Pennsylvania.
I predict here and now that the next statement we will hear Weiner make is "I quit." I don't know who will make him do it: Democrats in Congress, the Clintons, or his wife. Weiner needs to step down now, he's making life too easy for comedians and political cartoonists.
