CONTINUED:WASHINGTON — Rep. Anthony Weiner announced Saturday he was entering professional treatment at an undisclosed location and requested a leave of absence from Congress as he faced fierce pressure from top Democrats to resign in a sex texting scandal.
An aide for the embattled New York lawmaker made the disclosure in a statement shortly after several Democratic party leaders demanded he quit for exchanging messages and photos ranging from sexually suggestive to explicit with several women online.
"This sordid affair has become an unacceptable distraction for Representative Weiner, his family, his constituents and the House," Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, said in a written statement calling for the 46-year-old married lawmaker to step down.
What exactly is the treatment for dumb-assitis?
I don't think there is a cure.
Why does he need to step down?
he broke no laws. he had no physical contact with anyone.
if he steps down, it should be his choice.
...though, i see how this worries the Dems, as it makes them looks bad and distracts attention from the REAL bad guys.
"The real bad guys?" Pfft!!! So anyone that isn't liberal is a bad guy?
Just so you know, one of the girls this predator is sending pics of his little weiner to is a 17 year old, high school student.
But conservatives are the bad guys in this case eh?

im worried, that this is becoming a witch-hunt. are they now going to contact EVERY single person Wiener contacted on Tweeter?
I thnk the guy has shot himself in the foot big time and will have to resign.
His political career over and now his marriage is in big trouble
But can you show a link that he sent a picture of his penis to the 17 yr old girl or are you just jumping on the bandwagon of salivating republicans in kicking a dem to the ground? That sounds something like you got from Fox News.

Again, if anything was "got" here, it was from watching Democrats foam at the mouth as they sling as much mud as they can hold at Sarah Palin. 25,000 email witch hunt right now.
You can cry me a river as well.
How do you know this? And if his marriage is in trouble due to cybering there wasn't a strong marriage there to begin with.
The liberal "fix-all" for everything... Treatment.
Sorry, but no amount of treatment will change the fact this guy is liar. That's reason enough for him to resign, but that will now be swept under the rug and he will be proclaimed "Cured" and the democrats will pretend like it never happened.
How about taking PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for ones actions... Does that even exist anymore?
I doubt very much treatment is limited to liberals. The name Ted Haggard, the gay evangelist preacher comes to mind and I'm sure there are many, many more. And there are those conservatives who want to provide treatment for turning gays to straight.The liberal "fix-all" for everything... Treatment.

He hasn't been charged with a crime yet, Grim.
I think this is the end of his political career, but if he wants to tough it out a la Vitter, that's his prerogative.
