Yes, it is lying when there's a spot on the government financial disclosure form where you are required by law to list if your wife has income, and disclose it and the source.
And when you list "none" - five years in a row - when you and everyone else in Washington know damns well your wife works for a lobbyist, that's a bad thing.
Especially when you are a Supreme Court Justice. Ignorance of the law is no excuse for violating it, right
Weiner, unlike Clarence Thomas, didn't break any laws. No, no reason for him to resign. He can certainly get an ethics investigation within the House, and be subject to the decision there.
