"Disagree" by Gaelin (136)

Look, it's a free country. It's wierd that he's sending girls pictures of his junk, but I don't see how it affects lawmaking in any way. Leave him be.

"representation" by Punisher (6)

is not he a representative of the people. I think his actions reflects his consituents actions. most of his constituents are doing the same thing, they go online and send their photos to girls, they have online relations, I think he is a true representative of them and I do not think he should resign,

"Punisher..." by Vultren (126)

Sadly Punisher, he himself did not believe what you said.

It's not the actions as to why he should have resigned, it was Weiner lying about it.

"No" by toxicityj (7)

He did something very stupid that could have compromised his marriage and made him lose the respect of a LOT of people. However, nothing he did was illegal. He did lie, but he didn't do it whilst under oath, so there aren't any legal issues.

As I understand it a lot of pressure from the Democrats (who need to save face for the election) lead him to resign.

"He gone" by Teddyroosevelt (45)

I actualy agree he shouldnt be forced out of congress for something that isn't illegal however if your candidate is sending nude photos I think it's time to pick someone else maybe a candidate that spends more time working on his computer perhaps
