Weiner Won’t Resign Despite New Photos Released Online


On Sunday, a House Democrat joined the party that is fervently requesting Representative Anthony Weiner to resign from his public post following his “sexting” scandals. The New York representative responded to the request by submitting a temporary leave of absence.

The chairman of the Republican Party criticized the Democrats for not taking more solid and forceful actions regarding the matter. The Republican Chairman said that the incident has taken a good portion of the attention of the people of Capitol Hill side-stepping from more important matters.

Weiner has earlier admitted to the allegations acknowledging the fact that he indeed engaged in sexual and explicit activities with a couple of women online. The most recent gossips were revealed in a TV gossip show and website TMZ.

The photo that was posted on the TMZ website Sunday shows a half-naked Weiner with nothing on but a towel wrapped around his waist. He was also holding his crotch in the said photo. The photo, TMZ said, was sent to at least one woman.

Maryland Representative Steny Hoyer said that it will be extremely difficult for Weiner to effectively represent New York following his bizarre and highly unacceptable behaviour with young women.

In New York, Weiner’s supporters and enemies are up against each other. 61-year old New Yorker Jim Scott, one of the several people who protested in front of Weiner’s office said that he thinks Weiner is not fit to represent them anymore. He added that New Yorkers are sick of them and he should just resign.

On the other hand, 18-year old Olivia Lurrie said that Weiner is a great leader who just like many human beings, made a mistake.

Everyone is at the edge of their seats waiting for what’s next in the scandal Weiner got himself in to.
