    The president said Monday that what Weiner did over the Internet was “highly inappropriate” and that Weiner had embarrassed himself, his wife and his family.

    The president didn’t explicitly call for Weiner to resign but said that when a politician gets to the point where he can’t serve as effectively as needed, in his words, “then you should probably step back.”

    The comments were the president’s first on Weiner’s scandal. Obama made them in an interview for NBC’s “Today Show.”

    Weiner is away from Washington seeking unspecified treatment but is not saying he’ll resign even as other Democratic leaders call for that.

    “when a politician gets to the point where he can’t serve as effectively as needed”
    I guess Obama thinks playing golf is “serving effectively”
    What a disgrace.

    All posters here! You make public statements about your disliking of the president and other political figures.

    no matter if your right or wrong this is not right to do.
    You don’t know who else is reading your comments and what it might hurt other fellows and you not even knowing that your liable for it you can never repent such an act .

    Is it worth the 5 minute pleaser of writing a comment to put your self in such a position?
    Do you think that by posting here to resign that it will actually happen?

    Who asked you to be my spokesman when you can’t even make a difference to the good when the only think it could result to is damage
    The Jewish way was always to support and respect the president even if he is wrong on the issues.

    Step down now, don’t wait. You’ll say anything to gain sympathy. Did you say that to Clinton, Barney Frank also.
    Lets get Rev Jackson down to the WH, and have a prayer meeting with all their girlfriends, mistresses, boy prostitutes, etc.
