Rep. Dave Weldon (R-FL) bails.

Thinkprogress:

The Crypt reports that Rep. Dave Weldon (R-FL) will be announcing his retirement today, “becoming the 25th House Republican not to run for re-election this election cycle.” In 2006, the LA Times revealed that Weldon earmarked money for Tom DeLay’s allies in return for political contributions.

UPDATE: “The surprise announcement comes within hours of the congressman’s daughter, Katie Weldon, being arrested and jailed, accused of attacking an employee at a Brevard County bar.”

Look for more GOP crooks to bail out as the end comes near. Each one has a story of how they robbed the taxpayers. Now poor Boner he will no longer have a tan or his hair done. I wonder why Boner always wants to look brown yet he's a racist. People are really strange. I do the best I can to stay out of the sun I really don't need to get darker it hurts my skin.

Boner looks like he is trying to be George Hamilton.
