THE ISSUE: Anthony Weiner’s resignation last week from the House of Representatives.

Anthony Weiner needs to look on the bright side of things (“Weiner’s Rise and Fall,” June 17).

He has a baby on the way, and, for the first time in his life, he can get a real job.

Right up to the end, Weiner was Weiner — the epitome of assertive, elitist arrogance.

Even in his swan song, he sounded like he was campaigning.

When it comes to his addiction to the cameras, microphones and spotlights, it’s clear that Weiner is a carbon copy of his mentor, Sen. Chuck Schumer.

Weiner should have written a letter of resignation instead of holding another ego-driven press conference.

The irony is that “Mr. Social Media” could easily have posted a video on YouTube and avoided the circus. I guess he couldn’t resist one last “junkshot” for New York.

Before anyone gets too teary eyed about the fall of Weiner, just remember that not only did he lie to you, but he also tried to frame an innocent person with what would have been a federal crime.

Why isn’t there an investigation being conducted against this arrogant, brazen liar?

For a politician, Weiner could have been a little more discreet. But, for a fully realized, sexual, male human, he is OK in my book.

I am offended by war and racism, not a person’s erotic landscape.

The most annoying feature of these various political scandals is the defenders who routinely step forth to claim that their Favored One’s behavior is a “personal matter” and “does not affect his ability to serve.”

Am I really to believe that someone who shows such enormously bad judgment on his own behalf will suddenly become a Solomon on mine?

I hope that our elected officials are paying attention to the Weiner scandal.

Over the years, we have become numb to atrocious, and sometimes criminal, behavior by politicians at all levels of government. Weiner is the most recent example, but he is far from alone.

We elect them to represent us. Instead, they push their own agenda. It’s as if we, the entire reason for them being where they are, don’t exist — except at election time.

Hopefully, the Weiner scandal has brought us to the point where we will not tolerate their nonsense any longer.
