    US politician Anthony Weiner has admitted covering up sending a lewd photo of himself to a college student - and also tearfully confessed to successive online sex relationships with women.

    A married New York Democrat and a leading liberal voice in the US House of Representatives, he was expected to run for mayor of New York City in 2013.

    He cried as he said publicly he was deeply shamed of his actions - but refused to resign.

    Mr Weiner admitted to inappropriate internet and telephone conversations with six women but said none of them developed into a physical relationship.

    "I'm deeply regretting what I have done and I'm not resigning," Mr Weiner said at a news conference while wiping away tears.

    "The picture was of me and I sent it," he said of an image sent over Twitter of a man in his underpants, which sparked the scandal more than a week ago.

    I'm fed up with these faux shows of contrition after they get caught. I'd love for one of them to turn round and say, 'Yeah, I did it and it was fantastic. And what the ****'s it got to do with you anyway you muckraking prick?'

    He was seen as a rising star among the Democrat party. Why do they think they wont get caught, especially doing stuff on the net?

    He even tried the classic of claiming his account had been hacked. <doh>
