OR ...
It could simply be that some folks, lawmakers as they are, see themselves as better than, above the rest of us mere common citizens, the rabble.
Some are more equal than others...
They're not worried of getting caught if there isn't anyone to to watch the watchers.

I disagree AURaptor,
The truth of a person is who they are when all the secrets are out. This man, Anthony Weiner, does not feel better than everyone else now that his secret is out. Back when he was acting out, acting AS IF he were better than others, he was compensating for his catastrophically low self-worth.
Y'see, they WANT you to think they're big and tough and don't care about the weak because that is the narrative in which they are most powerful and intensely masculine. The narratives in their heads, however, that fuel their acting out, even their choice of profession sometimes, tell them that they are weak and ugly and must take what they want because no one--no woman, in Weiner's case--would willingly give them what they desire.

Billary "travels everywhere" with Weiner's anorexic Arab wife Huma Abedin
Jew Weiner's weiner is a huge (actually tiny) issue, since his Arab ho wife is bangin one of the most ruthless mass murderers in human history. How many psychopaths can say they personally ordered world armies to massacre 80 women and children in a Christian church in Texas? And don't forget the 500,000 babies genocided in Iraq during her First Ladyshit. Then there's the CIA massacres today in the Middle East while Secretary of State in charge of diplomacy by bombing the shit out of millions of innocent civilians and letting Israel do the same.
Maybe Arab Semite Huma is playing her Joker Card to destroy the Clintons for Muslim Hussein Obama?

Mr Weiner, this is what happens when a heterosexual marries a lesbian, your chest hair falls out and Hillary's photo pops up

I'm tempted to agree with Rap on this one. He's sick, sure, but he also thinks the rules don't apply to him.
John,
Is Hillary's being gay relevant or newsworthy? I sort of got this point in 1992 when she showed no interest in Bill's extramarital affairs. She wasn't interested in the fact that he was cheating on her: She didn't want him to come home, or to leave, and she didn't want in on it, she just had no interest. I thought "Oh, it's a cover marriage, she's gay, and this is about political power." At some point they spawned Chelsea.

At least in the current Congress, the Republican leadership is taking a harder stance. One of the panelists on the "Diane Rhem Show" (I believe) noted that when the Lee scandal surfaced, Speaker Boehmer immediately told him to resign, and he did. This could just be lessons learned from previous scandals when the Party tried to either cover up or rehabilitate the malefactor, and ended up losing votes. The Democratic leadership, on the other hand, has left both Weiner and Charlie Rangel in office after their transgressions.
"Keep the Shiny side up"
Was David Vitter told to resign after it came out that he was soliciting prostitutes (an ACTUAL crime, mind you, according to the law)? Was Larry Craig told to resign after his arrest and guilty plea? Was Mark Sandford told to resign when it was revealed that "hiking the Appalachian Trail" really meant "using taxpayer funds to take a fuck-it junket to Argentina"? Was John Ensign told to resign when his C-Street buddies learned of his affair and worked together to break the law and try to buy his way out of the mess?
So when EXACTLY did this "harder stance" start coming into play for the Republicans? The day after Weiner's press conference?
For the record, the answer to all of the above questions about Republicans being "told to resign" in the wake of their transgressions is "NO." None of them were "told to resign"; hell, none of them were even ASKED to resign.
Vitter was re-elected. And he was given a standing ovation when he returned to the Senate after news of his scandal broke. He's still there four years later. Oddly, he hasn't resigned (but he HAS had his diaper changed a few times).
Larry Craig served out his Senate term, too.
Mark Sandford just left office in January 2011. Obviously this new "harder stance" is something that must have come into play in the last 5 months, then...
John Ensign finally *DID* resign on May 3 of this year, little more than a month ago, despite his scandal breaking in 2008. And he only resigned when it became increasingly clear that he was in all likelihood going to be thrown out of the Senate for his various and plentiful ethics violations. He may well still face criminal charges.
So this whole "harder stance" thing is something the GOP came up with just in the last month, it seems.
Was there a press release or anything?

Mike, it'd help if you actually read my post before replying. It starts off "At least in the current Congress...".

Nice try, Geezer, but your spin isn't working.
Is David Vitter a member of the "current" Congress?
Yes or no, please.
Was John Ensign a member of the "current" Congress?
Again, a simple yes or no will suffice.
Also, you point out Charlie Rangel as an example of Democrats leaving offenders in office. Were his transgressions part of the "current" Congress?
Your hypocrisy is showing. Might want to see to that.

HK, I just see it some what differently than you.
Not that I'm dismissing it all, as I see there's certainly merit to what you're saying.
I'll never forget the smirk and arrogance that Charles Rangel had, when asked about his ethics issues. Rangel basically laughed, and told the reporter, why would he be worried about anything happening to him, when HE was the chairman of the committee which was investigating him! He basically was stating that, 'I run that committee, and if you think anything will come of this, you're delusional. ' Same sort of arrogance and elitist attitude displayed by Weiner.
It goes back to the line from the movie, Matilda... " I'm smart; you're dumb. I'm big; you're little. I'm right, you're wrong."
That's how the politicians like Weiner and Rangel think.

Both Billarys are gay, according to eyewitness participant Cathy O'Brien. Monica sucked dick, no vagina involved, might as well have been a man.
Homosexuality is extremely relevant because all psychopaths are homosexuals, by definition (many will have sex with rotted corpses dug from the grave, like Republican rising star Ted Bundy). If homosexuality is the epitomy of mental health, why do homosexuals like Billary, Obama and Bush love to genocide millions of innocent people, and carry out false flag terror massacres in USA?
Homosexuals are usually pedophiles, in order to brainwash, recruit and manufacture more homosexuals.
Homosexuality is still a felony in the military.
Homosexuals cannot be Christians, which is one reason why jews hate Christians. The jewish Babylonian Talmud is a Satanic bible for psychopaths that legalizes homosexuality, pedophilia, beastiality, theft, fraud, murder and genocide. Satan is their god. Rabbis are required to be homosexual pedophiles and suck the penis of little jew babies during circumcision, to make them grow up to be homosexual pedophiles.
Homosexuality is a disease vector. Sucking shit off a dick or dildo is not conducive towards good health.
HIV is a Pentagon Congressional eugenics bioweapon WMD first advertised for "promiscuous homosexuals" to volunteer for "experimental vaccinations", because homosexual men would spread the disease faster than anyone else.
Homosexuality is a mental illness and/or physical disability that can be cured, but saying it is "normal" denies sick people a cure.
The Pentagon has a Gay Bomb that can turn any soldier into a raging homosexual raping his fellow soldiers to death. BPA plastic and soybean foods are the equivalent of a Gay Bomb WMD dropped every day on the gullible goyim in USA.
Chelsea was probably an artificial insemination by Satanic Nazi Dr Michael Aquino at a DARPA MKULTRA laboratory under Disney World.
