Above the Law: Weiner's Pathfinder Has Different Plates, is Unregistered

It was only a couple of months ago when being a parking ticket scofflaw was a minor nuisance for the disgraced Anthony Weiner. Oh, how times have changed, especially in the past 17 days. Still, it was noticed last week that his registration was out of date on his Nissan Pathfinder. Now the New York DMV has confirmed that.
Lying about sexting apparently isn't Rep. Anthony Weiner's only gray area.

When Weiner (D-Queens, Brooklyn) was photographed by the Daily News fleeing the Capitol in his Nissan Pathfinder, it was clear the July 2007 registration sticker in his window was expired, and there was no inspection sticker to be seen. Weiner, through a staffer, said the 1988 Nissan Pathfinder was registered in New York State.

Not so, said the state Department of Motor Vehicles.

The New York license plate bolted on Weiner's Pathfinder - US Congress 9 - had expired as of 2006, according to the DMV.

"That license plate should not be on a car," a DMV spokeswoman said. It wasn't even issued to the Pathfinder, but to another one of Weiner's cars, a Honda, according to vehicle records.

Valid plates were issued to Weiner's Pathfinder, but they don't have the helpful words "US Congress" on them, and so look less official. It's unclear what happened to those plates.
How pathetic is this guy? He can't even keep track of registering his truck? Different license plates?
"Switching around license plates is what criminals do," noted a retired Brooklyn accident investigator. "If you are a congressman, you aren't supposed to be switching out your plates. I guess that's the least of his worries."
We have a media painstakingly poring over 24,000 Sarah Palin emails, but in the meantime we've also got a very shady soon-to-be former politician who seems to need a little vetting by the press. A shame they never did any background on Weiner until two weeks ago.

One other thing typical of the liberals. They vote huge bail outs for car companies whose products they don't buy. Weiner has two Japanese cars. No Chevy? No Dodge?

Maybe it's registered in Nevada, that's what BayArea liberals do...

He should be arrested and his car impounded.  Does he have proof of insurance?  I'll bet not.  And look a tthe lights on top of the car.  What is he going deer hunting in D.C.?  This is a small pathetic man, you almost feel sorry for him...almost.

It is amazing that this guy wasn't vetted more carefully.

The MSM tried pretty hard to ruin the lives of those citizen journalists who finally tried to vet him.

God knows what else he's hiding.  Not registering his car is seriously shady.  He could have had a staffer handle that instantly at any time.

This is going to piss off every New Yorker who deals with the crappy gov't bureaucracy and expense. This guy is not only toast but burnt toast.
