“A troubled and afflicted mankind looks to us, pleading for us to keep our rendezvous with destiny; that we will uphold the principles of self-reliance, self-discipline, morality, and, above all, responsible liberty for every individual that we will become that shining city on a hill.” — Ronald Wilson Reagan

Wu Still Hasn’t Resigned

Remember David Wu (D-OR), the latest Democrat caught in a sex scandal with a young girl, who promised to resign after the debt ceiling vote?

He hasn’t yet.

Don’t worry, you didn’t blink and miss it. Rep. David Wu, D-Ore., is still a congressman.

The embattled Democrat announced last week he would resign following a damaging report that he had an “unwanted sexual encounter” with the teenage daughter of a campaign donor. But Wu said he would only officially leave after a compromise was reached to raise the debt ceiling. On Monday, Wu voted in favor of the House bill.

We’ll see if he actually follows through on his statement… and if the Democratic Leadership in the House pressure him to do so.
