A bit ago, CNN did a Breaking News to cover a statement from Anti-gay (but not gay in his mind) Jim West.
Basically, Jim announced he ain't quitting. AP reports he is getting intense pressure from the Spokane business community. But, according to Jim, he hasn't done anything wrong:
"I ask that you accept my apology. I ask for your understanding. But more than anything, I ask that together we turn our attention back to making Spokane a better place to live," West said during a brief news conference.
West, who has 31 months remaining in his term, did not specify what he was apologizing for. He did not accept questions following his statement.
Many people - including some City Council members and, earlier Monday, the Spokane Chamber of Commerce - have called for West's resignation since The Spokesman-Review newspaper reported this month that he offered gifts, favors and jobs at City Hall to lure someone posing as an 18-year-old man on Gay.com.
