Stick to the important issues

Well, Rep. Anthony Weiner has resigned. He has disgraced himself and his family. His sophomoric high jinks have lead him to shame. He is a doofus.

But his actions did not cost the life of one American son or daughter in the deserts of Iraq or Afghanistan. His actions did not send one American job fleeing to Asia or Mexico. His actions did not cost another billion or so dollars to be added to the debt. His actions did not deny health coverage (Medicare) to any American citizen. His actions did not ruin one American family. But he is a doofus. When will America wake up and demand the resignations of those representatives who truly hurt America?

Let the doofuses be. Good luck, America; we truly need it.
