Cantor: Weiner Should Pull Out
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) has become the first GOP House leader to call on Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) to resign.
"I don't condone his activity. And I think he should resign," Cantor said Tuesday in Louisa, Virginia, after a Chamber of Commerce luncheon, according to em>The Daily Progress.<
But the No. 2 House Republican said the decision is ultimately up to Weiner and his constituents.
"We've got a lot of serious challenges in this country and a lot of work for Congress to do," Cantor said, according to the paper. "The last thing we need to do is get enmeshed in a discussion about Congressman Weiner and his Twitter activities."
