Default San Diego Mayor Bob Filner agrees to resign
Pervert Bob is bidding a farewell. Oh how I'll miss the stories of him shoving his tongue down the throats of unwilling women and unwanted ass-smacking.

Sigh.

San Diego Mayor Bob Filner agrees to resign | Fox News

Quote:
BREAKING: Mayor Bob Filner agreed Friday to resign on Aug. 30, bowing to enormous pressure after lurid sexual harassment allegations brought by at least 17 women eroded his support after just nine months on the job.

The City Council voted 7-0 on a deal that ends a political stalemate after more than a dozen women publicly identified themselves as targets of unwanted advances, including touching, forcible kisses and lurid comments.

The 70-year-old Filner, a Democrat who served 20 years in Congress before becoming mayor of the nation's eighth-largest city, apologized to accusers but denied ever sexually harassing them.

He previously insisted he still could be an effective mayor and underwent two weeks of behavioral therapy before returning to work this week.

But his support diminished as more women -- one of them a great-grandmother and another a retired Navy admiral -- came forward and told stories of Filner touching, forcibly kissing, making lewd comments and even placing them in headlocks. Some of Filner's closest political allies and all nine members of the council called on him to quit.

What ISN'T a story (which should be but it isn't the correct letter) is the fact that the Democratic Party know about this for YEARS and swept it under the rug...

If this had been a Republican, he would be hanging from the yardarm and MSM would be skewering him with lances.

I know, Republicans are always the best hypothetical victims.

I think he will soon enough. Thankfully, most of the Dem voters in NYC see his egomania and he's been polling 4th place in the mayoral primary.

But it took a SECOND time...

Afer realizing he was scum the FIRST time, both the Democrat Party and the heavily Democratic city of New York gave him a FREE PASS and he was actually leading the race...

And a KKK member was nominated in Louisiana several years ago; your point?

The first time, voters forgave him and were willing to give him a 2nd chance, at least a quarter of them did. Now, not so much. Don't see why you're that mad about the situation. Voters forgive sometimes, ask Mark Sanford and David Vitter.
