RNC Chair: Weiner Must Resign Now, No Investigation Needed To Know He ‘Is A Creep’
Chairman of the Republican National Committee Reince Priebus declared on Today that Nancy Pelosi’s silence in not demanding Weiner’s immediate resignation was “outrageous.” Meredith Vieira wondered whether constituents should be able to decide his fate rather than the Democratic leadership, yet Priebus was unfazed in his call for the Weiner distraction to be put away as quickly as possible.
Priebus argued:
“Nancy Pelosi needs to do her job and be a leader of her caucus and tell Anthony Weiner to really hit the bricks and go home. . . . Sending pictures of his private parts around the world is not fitting of a United States Congressman.”
And Priebus slammed the idea of an ethics investigation as being a sufficient response, saying “I don’t think we need to spend taxpayer dollars investigating whether or not Anthony Weiner is a creep or not.” Although some Republicans have been arguing the longer Weiner is around, the better it is politically for the Republican party, Priebus clearly believes that regardless of any political benefit to his side, it’s better for the country if we can all move on and focus on fixing the economy.
