Let me preface this by saying I think Anthony Weiner should resign. He violated the public's trust. I believe any time you are an elected official and you violate the public's trust you should resign your office.
That's my own personal feeling on the matter. He's not as important as he thinks he is and he's not as smart as he apparently still thinks he is. His job will survive without him in office. He's just no that needed.
To hear other members of congress calling for his resignation is a totally different matter, however. Weiner, to my knowledge, didn't break any laws. Sure he was screwing around on his wife in some sort of weird non-tangible way. But he didn't do anything illegal. Other members, like Eric Cantor, calling for his ouster are laughable and better off to leave him alone. After all, Cantor's very own party has a known prostitute frequenter, David Vitter, as well as a known extortionist in Tom Coburn when he helped negotiate Sen. John Ensign's mistress's payoff. If you can run on the same ticket with those guys, you can certainly tolerate a guy that likes to take pictures of his penis.
