No Cause For Alarm In NY Rep. Posting, Lying About Lewd Pictures On Internet?

As even more of his fellow Washington Democrats join Republican calls for disgraced U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner’s (D-NY) resignation, U.S. Senator Bill Nelson (D-FL) apparently disagrees, and is remaining silent on his Democrat colleague’s lewd online behavior.

So far, according to Politico, a growing list of top Democrats – including former DNC Chairmen Tim Kaine and Ed Rendell, U.S. Senators Pat Leahy (D-VT) and Mark Pryor (D-AR), and U.S. Reps. Allyson Schwartz (D-PA), Mike Ross (D-AR), Larry Kissell (D-NC), Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), Niki Tsongas (D-MA), Michael Michaud (D-ME) and Joe Donnelly (D-IN) – are all calling for Weiner to resign.  But not Joe Manchin…

“Does Senator Bill Nelson agree with this growing list of his fellow Democrats that it’s time for Anthony Weiner to go, or does he continue to stand by his Democrat colleague despite this lewd behavior?” asked National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) spokesman Jahan Wilcox.
