Anthony Weiner stripper penpal Ginger Lee calls for his resignation

Rep. Anthony Weiner is running out of allies. Even his stripper penpal is calling for his resignation.

Ginger Lee, a former porn actress who currently works as a "feature dancer" in nightclubs, said today that Weiner tried several times to engage her in sexual communication but that she never took the bait.

Lee held a press conference in New York City, accompanied by her lawyer Gloria Allred, who said Lee had "gone into hiding" after the Weiner scandal broke to avoid having to lie to protect the New York Democrat. The two said Weiner first contacted Lee this March, after she wrote flattering things about him on her blog.

Weiner is under intense pressure to quit after he admitted inappropriate online relationships with several women over the past three years. Many Democratic colleagues are hoping he resigns now that his wife, a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, has returned from an overseas trip.

Allred estimated that Weiner and Lee exchanged about 100 messages via email and Twitter from March until two weeks ago. She said the few that were sexual in nature were all sent by Weiner.

"I did not 'sext' him...any time he took it in that direction, I changed the subject," Lee said, reading from a prepared statement. The slight, young blond woman said that when she started interacting with Weiner "it was about politics."

According to Allred, Lee admired Weiner's positions on two issues of great importance to her: Planned Parenthood and health care. She said Weiner contacted Lee after she posted flattering descriptions of him on her blog.

Allred said Weiner repeatedly tried to change the direction and tone of their conversation to a more suggestive one.

Among the messages Weiner allegedly sent:

• "I have wardrobe demands too. I need to highlight my package."
• 
  
• "Alright, my package and I are not going to beg."
• 
  
• "You aren't giving my package due credit."

Anthony Weiner's alleged porn star pen pal

Allred said Weiner never sent any racy photos to Lee, and she sent none to him. The two communicated by phone only once: when Weiner gave Lee advice about how to handle the media after he accidentally tweeted a photo of his crotch in gray underwear to tens of thousands of twitter followers.

As one of the roughly 200 people Weiner followed on Twitter, Lee quickly became a target of reporters' questions. "He asked me to lie" when the news first broke, Lee said. "I knew I couldn't lie but I didn't want to be the one who threw him under the bus," she added, so she put out a three sentence statement and refused to answer any questions. Allred noted that Lee has not sold her story and would cooperate with a House ethics investigation if asked.

Lee said she believes Weiner should resign because he lied to the media and the public for a week before admitting the underwear photo was of him.

"If he told the truth, it might not have turned into this," she argued.

Congressman wiener should step down. The republican from New York's 26th sent a less provocative picture to some woman on Craigslist and he resigned. . wiener sent racier pictures and then LIED! about it. That's the key point here. Step down and let the media and congress focus on more important things. Like a JOBS BILL or actually doing something credible to reduce the deficit. To much time being spent on a non national issue.

Don't throw stones. He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at him. You know, I feel sorry for the guy, because he tweeted pictures. Yeah, they were not appropriate pictures, but they're hounding him like a dog. Meanwhile, on the otherside we had Presidents who have had oral sex inside the white house, Governors/Congressman who have slept with Call Girls/Maids/Mistresses and cheated our people out money. I really believe they want an empty seat. He made a mistake, he's alone 90% of the time because his wife is out of the country. The guy is lonely, he is human and men/guys will always have that wacky imagination its in their genes. I can tell you Mr. Weiner didn't have Sex with NO ONE like the rest of the sleaze balls. Please give the guy a break. The media is breaking him. But there is a lesson in here - people you call your friends are not your friends. See how how his so-call friends ran to the hills those people running have skeletons in their closet too. People love throwing stones and enjoying hurting others. Wait til you meet your MAKER. Mr. Weiner stand still, stay strong. To his wife: Support him - we are all humans. We fall short from the Grace of God.

weiner is a total weiner. his wife should file for divorce and leave him immediately. weiner has removed all doubt that he is a man of no character, no honor or integrity.

why should we care what this man does,if it hasn't affected his work ethic,or his ability to do his job,thats what counts first.and as for the dumb bimbo who has come out of the closet to say that this man asked her to lie,how do we know if this is true.she could be lying her self.just to make a name for her self,then they will create a reality show about her,like they have done in the past with other's,which are so boring and stupid and a waste of money.lets not let this bimbo make money on the back of this man,just because she wants to.she should go out and get a real job,and work for a living.Instead of creating some story that may not be true,just to benefit her own personal gain.

Hey Vet, how is that hope and CHANGE working out?


President Obama granted plum jobs and appointments to almost 200 people who raised large sums for his presidential campaign, and his top fundraisers have won millions of dollars in federal contracts, according to a new report from the Center for Public Integrity.


In one example detailed by the group's iWatch News, Telecom executive Donald H. Gips "bundled" half a million dollars in contributions to the president for his reelection campaign. ("Bundling" is the practice of gathering together a group of donations, and was popularized because of legal limits in individual contributions. It has been used particularly aggressively by Presidents George W. Bush and Obama.)


Gips went on to take charge of hiring in the Obama White House and (was later) named ambassador to South Africa. And his company, Level 3 Communications, was granted millions in stimulus contracts for broadband projects. Gips told iWatch he was "completely unaware" of the federal windfall. The company has taken $13.8 million in stimulus money.


The report found that 80 percent of Obama bundlers who raised $500,000 or more for Mr. Obama - many of whom are being asked to do the same for his reelection bid - ended up in "key administration posts," in the words of the White House.



This is far worse that George Bush ever did!

This guy is paid over 154 thousand dollars a year. If this were a private job he would be fired on the spot.

I thought Nancy was going to drain the swamp.

If its' a medical condition or just a perversion, what business is it of the press and of his constiuants in congress to press their morality on others to begin with?
What I see here is an attack.
An attack by sharks feeding off a victim of circumstance he put himself into, but sharks none the less. The sharks in congress and the sharks in the media...both are bottom feeders anyway.
