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.

The 24-year old actress, Lindsay Lohan, will not be charged for the fight she allegedly started with one of the rehab staffers in December 2010.  The prosecutors announced, Tuesday that they will not be pressing legal charges against this issue.

John Hall, spokesperson of the Riverside County District Attorney, said that the prosecutors decided that they do not have enough solid evidence to follow a battery case against Lohan.

On December 12, 2010, police received a call from Betty Ford Center in Palm Desert after one of the staff members accused the actress of hurting her. The staff member, Dawn Holland, appeared in TMZ to speak about the incident on-air. She was then later fired from work due to violation of the patient’s confidentiality rules.

At that time, Lindsay Lohan was almost done with her three month’s worth of court-ordered rehabilitative treatment after driving under the influence of alcohol while on probation 2007.

The prosecutors tried to get further proof from police agencies on the scene, but decided there was simply not enough evidence to push the case.

Lohan, however, has bigger problems due to her Los Angeles case. She is still in trial due to accusations that she stole a  necklace worth $2,500. The actress already pleaded not guilty and her lawyers insisted that Lohan is innocent. Lindsay already rejected a plea deal last week. The jewelry was reported missing only three weeks after she was released from rehab at Betty Ford Center.

Lindsay Lohan has been in and out of LA courthouses since May 2010. Since then she has been sent to jail and rehab twice.
