There isn’t one going after the truth here….NOT ONE.

The ” holy grail ” to this whole sordid affair, the immediate hiring of high profile attorney, refual to bring in police..FBI, can’t say “with certitude” it’s me. ( then say so without certitude…and who the hell, besides mediadoubt, even uses the word certitude today ), giving 15 different ( purposely conflicting, trick learned from Obama regime, so no one can tie you down to an answer ), etc, etc, lies in someone locating and interviewing his soon to be ex-wife and her attorney, friends and family.

I believe the wife somehow got access to his account, he probably left it up when he went to drain that giant lizard of his.

She, upon learning what he was really doing in the basement into the wee hours of the morning snapped and sent the photo.

Find the wife, Weiner’s history in the U.S. House of Representatives, simple as that, but no left winger in the MSM will do it.

Colby, doesn’t MessNBC get upset with you for appearing on a rival network?

Colby, no one has explained why the picture is deemed “lewd”.
It is a picture of “occupied” undershorts.
By that measure, every picture of a woman in a bikini is “lewd”
We know what’s under those triangles, after all.
And women in tight jeans? The dreaded “camel-toe” lurks.
Has Puritanism returned to America?

Glackin seems a little sympathetic in weiners pickle he’s gotten himself into. Wonder why that would be…

I’ve seen ads for “Jockey” that were worse. Nothing here. Like the Rep says – there are more important issues to be resolved than his Twitter.

Puritanism has returned, but not in the way you think. It’s in the form of liberalism.

Adding to the discourse with your usual charm. You never cease to underwhelm me with your wit.

Any of those models happen to be politicians?

This whole incident is just another bizarre example of media gone amok. That anyone in media would think this “lewd” photo (which it’s not) is “news” is indicative of the exploitive nature of media.

Hacking a Twitter account isn’t illegal; therefore, Anthony Weiner has nothing to complain about legally. Hacking a free file sharing site such as YouTube isn’t illegal. Hacking a Facebook account isn’t illegal, either. Disruption of any of these sites causes only inconvenience–which is why Anthony Weiner didn’t call the cops or the FBI, as has been suggested by many ignorant observers of this “news” story.

Don’t worry, there’s “breaking news!” about another hapless high profile person just waiting for the snarling jackals of media to pounce on–for nothing more than clicks, page views and selling newspapers. It’s soooo boring.

Weiner’s problem is that since he gave no reasonable explanation for not having the FBI or Capitol Police investigate …he did it . The simple answer is what he can’t avoid . Many on here and elsewhere constructed elaborate explanations to clear him , and then he says , well , it could be me . It’s a foolish , embarrassing thing he must admit if he won’t let the FBI look at it . His future opponents in any election have the picture to use as a billboard , so he may be cooked in elective office . But , who cares ?

Just how familiar are you with politicians’ crotches? Can you tell a liberal crotch from a conservative one?
And, please, DON’T tell us where you got your education.

Technically, it’s actually an “unauthorized use of a computer” which is a misdemeanor with a one year maximum sentence. Though as I’ve said repeatedly, no one has ever been arrested for “hacking into” a Twitter account, including the time people “hacked” into Twitter employees and it happens fairly often, especially with high-profile accounts.

Also, again as I’ve said, circumstantial evidence suggests that Twitter doesn’t retain IP info and I’m not certain they even have access for those who access through a third party.

well who knows, could be tony keeps pictures of other mens penises, does have a point jaurez

Oh, and I forgot to say…

Colby – Good analysis. If I were to have any qualms, it’d be that you failed to mention that the image could’ve been cropped and that’s why the Congressman may not have recognized it. In addition to it being a real possibility, it’s also my take from the New Republic analysis (via Gawker), but other than omitting that one possibility, perhaps due to time limitations, everything else seems spot-on.

Cute. But, as they say in every court room drama on the tube, the identity of the subject has not been established.
Are we going to go all “Porkie’s”, and line up all the schlongs in DC for comparison?

glad we agree, tony could have pictures of other mens penises, since we dont know the identity of the penis in question

Thank you Glackin! You can see pictures like that in catalogs all over America from stores like Sears or Pennys! I have never seen so many people so obsessed over a photo of a guy in underwear, especially when there are things going on like natural tragedies, unemployment rising, the middle class disappearing, trillions of dollars going to fund wars that should be ended and people lose their homes everyday. But what does every so called ‘newscaster’ start their show with? The latest gossip about a picture of a guy in his underwear!

So you’re cool with every man walking around with boners protruding from their underwear?

Is it just me or does Colby resemble a better groomed Brietbart?

You’re the one who quite clearly said that he didn’t find a photograph of an obviously erect penis to be lewd.

Obvious to you? Mine always looks like that. It stands out when erect.

THERE IS NO PENIS IN THE PICTURE! IT’S ALL IN YOUR MIND!
By your rules, Pam Anderson can’t walk onto a set or have her picture taken, because you KNOW WHAT’S UNDER THERE!

For God’s sakes. The guy took his own crotch and mailed it. Lucky for him he it didn’t end up sent to another guy.
The hacking of Palin and Obamas account were verified by the FBI because they asked for help. Weiner doesn’t want the FBI near because they’d find out Weiner wasn’t hacked and his computer is full of all kinds of porn. Weiner is just another pervert in Washington DC. The town’s full of every kind of pervert known to man.

Whatever spin you want to portray is irrelevent. Weiner is neutralized, kind of like the PeeWee Herman of politicians.
BTW his handling of the press will end up making it difficult for him to get spots to parrot his talking points.

And you can prove this, right, loudmouth?
Put up, or shut up.

a picture of a man in underwear, with the outline of a erection, sent from tony’s twitter account ,

Glackin, Don’t u need mom’s permission to be on an adult website ?

“Rep. Weiner’s other suspect Twitter followers, some who are underaged girls, seem to not be fully explained.”

1. On Twitter you really don’t have a whole lot of control who follows you (unless you mark your account as private). 2. TwitterBots often use images of young women to entice being ‘followed back’.
3. On Twitter you’re age isn’t listed, so how do people know the age of these girls?

You made claims. If I accept them without proof, THAT’S NAIVE. If you said them without proof, THAT’S SAD. If you expect me to believe you, THAT’S PATHETIC!

Your chuckleheaded friend says Weiner has a computer “full of porn” and is a pervert in a town full of perverts. You got proof of that? Because, he don’t. If he did, he’d be talking to Breitbart or F#X, not us.
AS I said, he should put up or shut up.

You might think it’s normal behavior to post weiner pics on the internet but I don’t.

Jaurez said:

I don’t know, and you don’t know WHO posted the picture of bulging undershorts. It’s crude, but not obscene.
But to extrapolate that to a computer full of porn and a sex pervert is several bridges too far.
I don’t mind sparring and needling, but that’s just flat lying.

I want no part of that country. My family has fought for this country since 1798, but they would fight the one you espouse.

nice spin, but the evidence right now points to him, he commited no crime, without further investigation that how it is, the court is public opinion

if i ever get in trouble i hope you have jury duty, i didnt do it seems to trump all evidence for you

so far the only hard evidence is his phone and his twitter account, hey if it proves he was hacked i will admit i was wrong

“A week into the great Twitter scandal known as ‘Weinergate,’ the media have not gotten any closer to figuring out exactly how a lewd photo found its way onto Rep. Anthony Weiner’s yFrog account, but certainly theories have been eliminated.”

Of all the turd-brained reporting I’ve seen on this so-called issue, this is possibly the turdiest sentence I’ve read. The media needs to get a life; there’s no bulge in their brains.
