always remember I only played the Clash.

The melt down has began….

Here is the most important part of this story. Now VOTE! http://tinyurl.com/3c8jbst

Mark, this is a very nice way of saying things: New York Rep. Anthony Weiner, seems to be souring on the subject of his Twitter account.

This pencil neck geek, is clearly sweatin’

This little douchebag left wing zealot needs to be taught a ____ing lesson about ” real ” life in America.

It’s time for the press to turn to his wife for the answers.

Enough is enough is enough with this punkass punk.

Camp out on his front lawn liberal style till the truth be told.

The scandal is out there , Anthony .

It’s got a name . Weinergate .

Think that’s going away ?

If you did not do it , say so . Demand an investigation .

You ‘d better face it .

“I’ve participated in the story a couple of days now. Given comments on it. This is a distraction and I’m not going to let it distract me.”

1. Those couple of days were Memorial Day Weekend… media is always kind of asleep then
2. You weren’t very forthcoming during those days.
3. Why can’t you even be distracted 5 minutes by your hacker? 5 minutes after the lewd picture went out you’re talking about a hockey game you couldn’t even watch. And there was a 3 hour gulf between the lewd tweet and the previous tweet so it’s miraculous that you just happened to be there to hurry up and delete it.

But he has a point. They are about to vote on the debt ceiling and all the morons on all sides of the media want to talk about is the Twitter pic. Because the media (Fox included) does not want the people well informed or aware of the real issues. Just like the 534 liars in Congress, they are covered by legions of liars with microphones.

You know when I first read about this story I fully thought his account was hacked and some joker send the twitter photo. But now having watched him during this interview he won’t answer the most basic question of “did you send the photo”?

If I was in the congress and had any account hacked I immediately would ask either the capitol police or FBI to investigate fully.

Something very fishy going on, should be interesting next few days.

Why is it that Mediaite cannot bring themselves to write “Rep. Weiner refuses to say that the lewd photo is not him.” Even when this video makes it clear that he won’t say that. Is it because you now realize that he did indeed tweet that picture and your reporting has been terrible?

Keeva said:
They are about to vote on the debt ceiling

Voting isn’t that difficult. Remember that the Prez can sign anything absentia.

If there was only some way for him to get back at the hacker who tried to destroy is career.

So, it is OK when it is done to someone you don’t like (apparently everyone based on your posts) but not OK when it is done to one of your paramours like Trump or Palin. Your hypocrisy (and latent idiocy) are clearly showing.

By the way, this is the one response every 3 months I have budgeted for you, so skip your usual hate filled reply.

It almost isn’t fun…what else can I pick apart?

“But he has a point. ”

No he doesn’t… the egomaniac needs to get over himself and answer the damn questions. This video is 9 minutes long… he could have answered all the weinergate questions and gotten to the debt ceiling if only he had answered the weinergate questions.

That would be correct Kathleen.

Where are Anthony’s fellow Democrats speaking up for him , rallying around him ?

So, it’s just a prank now, eh?

““If I was giving a speech to 45,000 people and someone stood up and heckled in the back I wouldn’t spend three days talking to him.”

You weren’t speaking to 45,000 people- you were sending a crotch shot to a young woman.

He had over 7 minutes to say he didn’t send the photo, and he could not.

All together now:

So long, Weiner!

LOL

I think maybe Glenn Beck got the last laugh!

There is always something important going on in Congress, whether you sent a picture of your junk to a 21 yr old girl or not.

Yell something out then run away and hide back under your bed…..PATHETIC = liberal.

Keeva said:

He could have replied : ” no, I didn’t send that photo.”

How long would that have taken, son?

OK this IS funny and we’re all having a little laugh at Weiner’s expense. But THAT didn’t sound like and innocent man… period. Come on guys on the left here on Mediaite. You can not claim in any serious way that THAT exchange looked good… seriously? If a Repub had dodged that way you guys on the left would be screaming bloody murder.

The reporter flat out asked “Is the photo of you”? And that is a pretty yes or no answer if your claim is that your twitter account was hacked. Still funny though…

lazzzlo said:

No, but the issue is a difficult and important one. My point was that there are bigger issues that are happening right now and not one of those so-called journalists even acknowledged it. The ease of voting belies the complexity of the issue.

By the way, sad little twist to take a shot at Obama in a non-Obama story. Y’all are really getting kind of sad on both sides with the endless need to take cheap shots. I await the day one of you from either side can resist.

See, this is a story about an irresponsible media trying to keep a tiny and fairly goofy story alive so they don’t have to actually work and find out about complex things like debt ceilings and budgets. Not about Wiener, Obama, Palin or the rest. But it will end up there once everyone gets their pathetic cheap shots in.

Big Eddie said:

Busy erasing their own Twitter accounts.

Do you see the Prez defending Wiener? Or even a statement? He is hung out to dry.

Keeva said:

Trump and SP send young coeds crotch pics?

Where?

Just answer the question! It’s just one question…. Good thing the liberals are giving him a huge pass. His canned answers are amusing. I am sure he spent the last 3 days working on it.

Wiener is now only local or has no pull until after the 2012 elections…all because of that.

I’m not saying it is right, I’m just saying it is.

I love it: libs like Keeva are defending the right of Dem Congressmen to send pics of their crotches to college coeds!!!!

When the libs on Mediaite said the Dems don’t run on “Family Values”, little did we know what their true values were.

DEMs will run away from Weiner like they ran away from Obama last year!

They ran away from Obama like scalded dogs!

What if the heckler got on stage and pants him though? Would he ignore it then? I almost wonder if he’s drawing this out AS a distraction though instead of outright denying it and calling for an investigation. I don’t know if he did it or not, either scenario is viable but he’s acting weird nonetheless.

You can’t have it both ways.

No, there is too much of a timeline here. If someone f#cked yer stuff, you would respond.

One testing exchange is pretty muchall it will be; the media will drop this like a hot potatoe…they won’t carry it on to infinity until he resigns like they did with Foley or any other republican. They will end up making excuses for him in no time flat.

Ifthey don’t, I’ll be shocked.

Just exhausting to have to parse Politicians words/statements (both parties). BUT…

Rep. Weiner in this vid stated to refer to “statements” on retaining counsel (to that effect):

“We’ve retained counsel to explore the proper next steps and to advise us on what civil or criminal actions should be taken,” Weiner spokesman Dave Arnold said in an email.

Maybe (just a maybe) parsing that statement means and/or means he retained counsel abouts actions if “others” in this case brought civil or criminal actions against him?

Don’t know, so his not answers to specific questions ample room for speculation

If you have been robbed, don’t you respond?

Keeva,

A married 47 yr old Congressman sending a picture of his excited junk to a college student is a “tiny and fairly goofy story?” Really? Tell that to former Rep. Chris Lee. All he sent was a shirtless pic. Hypocrisy at it’s finest. If Lee went, Weiner has to go too. It’s that simple.

Barack Must Go said:

Yet again, and in tiny words for the illiterate BMG – not a liberal and not a conservative. No Party Affiliation. Make up my own mind on the issues.

tatboy said:

Never said he was innocent or guilty. My point remains that the press is lazy and contributes to the problem caused by the 534 liars and thieves in Congress (Gabby Giffords is excluded). I think he is a little jerk, myself and could never vote for a guy that yells about everything. I hope he did do it so we can be rid of one more slimeball.

From my perspective, the ENTIRE Congress is guilty of violating their oath of office and is wildly corrupt and inherently dishonest. The best thing that can happen to America would be for the entire lot of them – both parties – to simply quit and leave the country. They have spent decades – yes, decades – making this mess and all think they can fix it before the next election by magic or t least blame someone else for it,

I am trying to be good.

Weiner’s analogy is ridiculous. Everyone would see a heckler, nobody saw him get hacked. Further, his refusal to discuss it or deny the photo is him is only pouring gas on the fire. Before this was just Breitbart picking on him, now you’re insulting a CNN producer and refusing to answer questions – thou doth protest too much?

Betting Weiner “retained council” because a good chunk of the 45,000 “following” him got that same lewd photo and are going to sue him for damages.

The Weiner must be hiding something.. Those answers are very confusing.

Big Eddie said:

I must say, I was leaning toward his account being hacked; not now. Whether Weiner wants to admit it or not, he did answer the question of “did you send it or not.”. And his answer was : Yes!

So long Tony!

I am seeing a lot of people, more than I expected defending the Congressman’s initial rights. I am pretty impressed about that.

Lots of different answers and excuses but it is cool that people do understand that people have certain rights.

The account was not hacked.
An official investigation can prove that.

I do not disagree, but in the overall scale of things, the Lee story, this one and all the other goofy little stories that are used to keep us distracted are just that. Little, goofy stories. I actually don’t care as long as everyone is an adult and no actual crimes were committed. If it is him, then he has to go. Obviously. And it likely is him given the vague and tap dance defense he has offered.

Again, because I like repeating things, my point remains that the media is avoiding the larger, more important stories so they don’t have to do any hard work, like finding out that their 534 friends in Congress are all corrupt or explaining to us how Congress is screwing all of us by playing these games with public policy.

By the way, for everyone else – show me where I defended him. Even once.

Oh, Notsofast – defend? Can you actually read? Liberal? Really? Oh, right I forgot. Everyone that disagrees with you or BMG is obviously a liberal traitor terrorist secret Muslim America hating Democrat. Did I get that right?

He is doing such an incredibly poor job managing this.

Remember this phrase? “I never told anybody to lie, not a single time – never. These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people.”

Sounds eerily similar to “this is a distraction”.

The working theory around the water cooler I hang at goes like this: While he might not be guilty of this particular tweet, THERE IS SOMETHING he’s trying to hide. We think that it’s something to do with hiding SOMETHING from his wife.

Why else would he “lawyer up” over this? Why not report it to the authorities and let THEM dig into it. It seems like he doesn’t want anyone actually poking around his private communications that could dredge up other not-necessarily related problems for him in his private life.

Anyone concur?

lazzzlo said:

Not illegal, even if it proves to be his picture (which it has not as yet), but the appearance of the impropriety is adequate. The woman is over 21 and the photo is not “obscene” by any standard. However, if he did send it, then he should resign.

By the way, Kathleen, Lee was dumb enough to put his face in the photos he sent. That does make a difference.

Republicans are back to their Larry Craig days again, can’t help but have Weiner on the tip of their tongue at all times. They sure do love Weiner, yes sir they do. It’s sad CNN has gone the TMZ route and is the network by far pushing this the hardest, really the only thing I get from this scandal. Enjoy your 2012 massacre, GOP

As much as this will be painful I have to agree,

Liberal Tormentor said:

Yes, but it is not against the law to lie. Sorry you cannot see that.

This story is progressing along nicely. You can almost see his staff planning this response step-by-step:

Step 1: Deny claims, while blaming conservatives for the hack (which you downgrade to a “prank” to cover up for your lack of interest in legal action). Wait on media to kill story.
Step 2: Refuse to pursue the investigation that could exonerate you and end the “distraction” because you have “more important things to do,” while desperately trying to change the talking points to those evil Republicans, their plans to kill old people through destroying Medicare, and the “shrinking middle class.” Wrap yourself in class warfare.
Step 3: Refuse any further comment except to repeat talking points about those evil Republicans who are attempting to distract you from saving the country.

Obviously, we are at Step 3 right now. We’re about to move to Step 4.

Step 4: Present this as a personal matter between you, your wife, the underage girl, and your junk. You in the media need to shut up about it and worry about Medicare and Clarence Thomas. (If necessary, explain junk tweet as a “joke in poor taste” caused by frustration over Republican bigotry.)
Step 5: Let the media repeat this theme, while also repeating the litany of Republican sex scandals to justify your indiscretions. Call it a “McCarthyite witch hunt” that proves that the Republicans hate America/poor people/the middle class/minorities.
Step 6: Stay in office and watch the story die. Become the biggest Democrat hero since Gerry Studds.

This would all be more entertaining if it wasn’t so predictable. The media doesn’t like surprises, though.

Liberal Tormentor said:

Just ’cause you think someone has done something wrong…you can’t convict them.

Rhapsody, since you want to talk about more important matters, here you go:

In other news, Obamacare is still really unpopular

As the media has turned its focus to Rep. Paul Ryan’s Medicare reform plan, one story that’s floated under the radar is the persistent bad polling for President Obama’s national health care law.

Despite Democratic predictions that it would become popular once passed, more than a year after Obama signed the law, just 38 of American favor it, according to the Pollster.com average — that’s the lowest level since the site started keeping track. Opposition is at 46 percent — off the all time high, but still comfortably outpacing the favorable levels.

It’s true that there hasn’t been as much polling on the health care law over the past few months as there was last year, but to the extent there has been polling, it’s been bad for Democrats.

It will never be repealed. It also took more than a year for Medicare to poll positively, by later it wasn’t implied “well if it doesn’t poll better in a year it clearly will never poll well”. Let’s see what happens when you try and mess with people’s Medicare, ha, oh wait, GOP will in 2012 :)

Look, if you accused me of something I did wrong…I would prove you wrong.

Those are not the rules we are playing by…so, now the game starts.

And if he was wronged, it would be VERY easy to prove. The fact the he doesn’t seem to be anxious for an investigation says alot, no?

Since when has this confressman not been angry with reporters who don’t want to let him control what questions he’ll allow to be voiced? I’ve yet to see an interview with him where he didn’t throw a tantrum to some degree.

He’s a pussy.

What I don’t believe in is mob rule. Proof, not opinion.

IowaHawk and GatewayPundit are offering rewards to find the hacker!

I watched the deplorable spectacle displayed by the honorable Weiner.  One important detail the writer failed to enclude in this article is the fact that this congressman became so agitated that he actually called one of the people asking him questions a “jack ass”.  One must wonder if Mr. Weiner would have stooped to such juvenile language if he had known that this person happens to be a CNN producer too.

Rep. Weiner, I don’t want a 48 REAR OLD MARRIED MAN “following” my 21 year old daughter on twitter!

What don’t you get about that?

That’s the logic.

It’s painful watching Weiner lie and squirm. No one really cares. I mean, sure, everyone would have fun with it for a week or so, and then forget about it. But now he himself has turned it into a molehill by not just fessing up right away to a mistake tweet.

Has the guy comitted a crime?

What’s so interesting about that clip that when it began, there were just 2 reporters there, by the end, reporters were everywhere.

fessing up right away to a mistake tweet….that should be the answer….it looks like it won’t be that way.

Is it really important to bust a dude for being stupid?

Until the Weiner cooperates we might not know. Odds are he committed a far worse crime than posting a picture of a bare chest on Craigs list that ended up costing a GOP his Rep job.

Yeah, the poor, uneducated Congressman was not specifically told it was not appropriate to send crotch shots across the internet.

So that’ the level of intelligence we can expect from lib congressmen, eh?

That reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when George got fired for having sex on his desk at the office with the cleaning lady.

George’s boss told him he was fired for the incident and George asked, “Was that wrong?”

Yeah, now we know the mentality ob libs!

No but he claimed a crime was committed. Now, as a politician, what he did usually is a death blow to a career. He’s very well liked amongst liberals and college aged hussies. He might get away with it, but it seems CNN is now putting on the full court pressed (except that pervert toobin who is complicit).

that is the whole point…he actually hasn’t committed any crime at all.

Right and then you say:

Ouch!

Did he actually file a claim?

Did he file with the city, county, state and country and claim that he was robbed?

No

Technically, what this leads us to believe is what many have already surmised.

I do believe the guy has the right to believe that it all will still work out for him.

He is not guilty even though he looks like he is guilty

lazzzlo said:

At this point, could Seattle woman pursue harassment charges against him or for sending an unwanted erotic pic even though she stated she didn’t see the pic but has claimed her life is now chaotic? Assuming she wanted to.

I really don’t know answer to this.

Aside from that, from what you know and Rep. Weiner himself has claimed, has a crime been committed?

The above press availability certainly earns the hashtag #FAIL.

Though you might be able to credit him for steadfastly sticking to his stated position and for going before the cameras instead of hiding in the tunnels, but the availability didn’t make good optics.

Also, it’s probably worth noting that the two reporters were both CNN and it’s on their network that the exchange aired. The issue wasn’t swept under the rug and they were working the story.

Otherwise…

A “porn star” who apparently writes what some call fanfiction about the Congressman tweeted that she had awakened to a DM. First all it wouldn’t be illegal, if it happened, but as I’ve commented elsewhere, her tweet might also qualify as another type of fanfiction.

(I don’t know. She won’t comment and it wouldn’t be a crime, anyway)

struckgld said:

The Rep. Chris Lee meme has certainly grown legs, but it’s not really a similar situation. Rep. Lee had been trolling Craigslist personals for dates and he resigned on his own within hours of the post. The quick resignation took every one by surprise, even the Republican leadership.

I know that those who oppose Rep. Weiner like to take the moral high ground, but David Vitter is still in the Senate and Larry Craig didn’t resign. What they did was different than what has been alleged against Rep Weiner — to start with, they both were accused of crimes — and it seems to me that if one were to take the morality thing to its logical end, they’d also have to consider Vitter and Craig to be damaged goods.

Wow, it’s all over folks. Done. He’d better start speaking with a heavy duty PR firm and work on salvaging.

This guy doesn’t understand that it is not their job to give him air time to spew his current interests and initiatives, but the jobs of journalist to hold politicians accountable and to keep them honest. Not that that is well represented in today’s media. Weiner really needs to stop whining about everything, and answer questions instead of spending time whining about them.

lazzzlo said:

How do you know?

Part of her statement:
“I am not sure whether or not this letter will alleviate any future harassment. I also do not have a clear understanding as to how or why exactly I am involved in this fiasco. I do know that my life has been seriously impacted by speculation and faulty allegations. My reputation has been called into question by those who lack the character to report the facts.”

Lot’s of Congresspeople have had hookers and sex scandals, plus if you look at the list of those who have been censured or officially reprimanded for other matters several continued to serve their districts and at least one is currently running for President.

BTW: Before anyone hits me, without counting, it looks like there’s considerably more Democrats than Republicans on the list and even if the allegation against Rep. Weiner is true, it wouldn’t result in any official Congressional action.

My feeling is what one does is between them and their constituents. If I were a conservative living in Louisiana, I’d have no trouble voting for Sen. Vitter and I admire Newt Gingrich’s intellect; I have voted Ted Kennedy and if I were a liberal living in Brooklyn, Anthony Weiner would be my man.

Chuck from Tacoma: nobody cares about my penis. I can’t believe I just typed that. But they do care about the Congressman’s dick.

And actually, I care about why his junk flashed to the world, because that’s not supposed to happen.

Looking at her blog (which is not NSFW), I don’t see much in the way of fiction. It’s pretty typical personal blog stuff, albeit a pornstar/stripper’s personal blog. Oh, and Weiner was following her, so a DM from him to her is entirely possible.

Difference is, Craig was a relatively unknown senator, who nobody was really familiar with. Weiner on the other hand, is somewhat of a rising star whose weiner rose to the occasion (It’s my opinion that it was his weiner) and gave us much to laugh at after he’s been a major dick for so long.

They both seem like liars. I never really thought who/what or where my Senator was being conjugal.

When they lie to me, I tend to get pissed.

Calling a CNN producer a jackass while not answering basic questions about a lewd tweet is a really bad move.

Dana Bash did a great job of trying to get him to answer, politely pointing out that he needed to answer these basic questions, such as is that you in the picture, and why aren’t you reporting it for proper investigation.

Seems clearer by the minute that he must have sent out the tweet, bizarre as it seems. It’s the only thing that makes sense since he’s avoiding the simplest of questions. If he answers ‘no it’s not me’, and reports the twitter hacking to the capital police or the FBI, CNN will stop asking.

lazzzlo said:

Maybe the real reason Weiner wants this to all go away is he could be afraid of what his Mom might say to him over this.

Oh, no. I think that, now that he’s retired, he’s doesn’t have nearly the social life he used to have and he probably gets kinda lonely out there in Idaho. So, really, if he brings you such joy, you should maybe reach out to him and y’all could brighten each others days.

There’s really no detective work needed here, aside from the sort the FBI would conduct with an assist from Twitter. We’ve got a hacker to catch, amirite? Unless you’re just looking for the penis. I’m not touching that investigation.

Well, Weiner is pretty egotistical, so on merits of being an assh*le I could certainly see people enjoying this. The thing with Craig, though, was his indiscretions looked so beautiful next to his fundie, holier-than-thou schtick in Congress.

Weiner, Breitbart, Palin, and Trump are causing the Obama Liberal Media MELTDOWN!

Weiner must have hired Mark {He’s not there to talk about the Past) McGwire’s attorney from a few years ago- seems to think that if he keeps repeating over and over again a strategy that is clearly not working, the public is going to buy it and go away. He looks so ridiculous somebody is going to pull him aside and say enough, and tomorrow we are going to have a mea culpa and someone checking himself into a clinic, and a we would appreciate a respect for his privacy during this difficult time.

Sarah Palin, the State Department, the White House Press Secretary and a few Defense Department Twitters have all been quoted off the top of my head, not to mention that NHS has incorporated the service into the terror alert network.

Why does he keep changing his story? Why doesn’t he just come out and say that it isn’t him? Why would anybody in public office allow their covered or uncovered penis to be photographed? This is beginning to be sort of Mark Foley-ish to me.

Rep. Portnoy is guiltier than OJ!

Portnoy keeps complaining about his junk being hacked, which is hilarious given its diminuitive size.

I don’t see the exchange between Weiner and the media as angry (although if someone asked me on camera why I was “following” so many young girls, I’d get pretty annoyed too, regardless of the basis). However, I do hope Rep Weiner’s mentor, Sen Schumer, is telling Weiner that regardless of what Weiner wants to do, he d*mn well better realize that if he wants to media to move on, he needs to make this a criminal matter and let the authorities handle it.

Good for him. Let the reporter scum stammer to ask an idiotic question. Those two were such self-righteous douchebags, wasting all the work they put into getting their jobs by asking questions about dick pics. Weiner made them both angry and that made me happy.

The Debt Ceiling vote went off just fine.
No one was distracted, everyone did their jobs.
And it was covered plenty on the news.

On the other hand… give me a freakin’ break. Weiner does NOT have a point simply because he’s now using the laziest and lamest dodges of all, to desperately try and make this story go away. But let’s get real and cut through all the crap — ALL of this would instantly go away if he would simply said: “No, I didn’t do it and the photo isn’t me.”

Wait…what’s that sound we all here? (Crickets chirping) Oh, that’s right — its the deafening silence of Weiner opening his loudmouth yap and blabbering away in a near nervous breakdown-like way, saying anything BUT the answers to the EASIEST and most BASIC questions of all.

It’s such a beautiful thing to see Libs incensed and outraged and livid. Do recall how starry-eyed and masturbatory they were when Obamo was elected; they thought their next four years would be glorious. They never believed their self-concocted cook-book of ‘Bush-Bashing’ would be used against them. But here they are…aflame and ‘outraged.’ Tee Hee!!!

When someone spends almost 10 minutes saying he does not want to talk about something that would actually take less than 30 seconds to talk about, it is only a mentally retarded person that would not realize Weiner is guilty of sending the photo and refuses to admit or deny.

I can guarantee that this matter will not go away and I look forward to his resignation speech soon.

This is very easy;

1. Rep.Weiner said his twitter account was hacked, so when asked by the MSM again answer ‘YES” or “NO” it is that easy.

2. If it was hacked. It is a crime. So why not fill out a FBI report. That way you can possibly capture the hacker so he/she would not do it again.

It is just that easy.

unless your account was NOT hacked and you sent out the photo. It is that easy MSM.

I don’t see the exchange between Weiner and the media as angry (although if someone asked me on camera why I was “following” so many young girls, I’d get pretty annoyed too, regardless of the basis). However, I do hope Rep Weiner’s mentor, Sen Schumer, is telling Weiner that regardless of what Weiner wants to do, he d*mn well better realize that if he wants to media to move on, he needs to make this a criminal matter and let the authorities handle it.

He called the male reporter a JACK ASS for doing his job…that seems to be pretty angry to me.

Incredible. The media hounds and hounds and hounds a man over a story the loathsome Breitbart squeezed from his lower abdomen, then gets all huffy when the Congressman reacts with a bit more testiness than they care for.

Here’s a REAL story for you! Breitbart overly friendly with livestock he doesn’t own. http://tinyurl.com/3zh97f9

Then a more serious piece on Brietbart’s personality profile. http://tinyurl.com/3bdxode

Now QUICKLY! Send a bunch of reporters to stake out Breitbart’s refrigerator box down by the river. Every time he sticks his head out of the flap, HOUND him about it. PESTER him with it. KEEP AFTER HIM LIKE THE BLOODHOUNDS OF TRUTH YOU ARE! See how long until he snaps at you.

The story is about Weiner, the elected official. Breitbart is a journalist – doesn’t have to answer to any of his constituents because he doesn’t have any. Why the outrage at Breitbart? Didn’t look at any of our “stories” because your source is well sort of known for yellow journalism. Perhaps that explains your effort to distract from the “real story”.

Breitbart does not control Weiner’s twitter account. Weiner controls Weiner’s twitter account. You’re just shooting the messenger.

Distraction. Diversion. Misdirection. A chance to be OUTRAGED!!!!

It isn’t outrage at Breitbart. It’s reflexive.

Hounds and hounds and hounds by asking questions he won’t answer a grand total of twice. The hounding has yet to commence, but it’s coming because of this very rare occurrence: Weiner has nothing to say.

I think you nailed it in very simple terms.
Weiner and his lib friends in the MSM are hoping it will just
go away, by attacking and feigning outrage at the messinger.
Not going to happen this time, my Libtard friends.
This little Pencilneck, loudmouth geek is TOAST.
Matter of days!!! lol

Next question to ask is THIS-

Representative Weiner, since you will not answer whether or not you sent the picture, tell me this-

DID YOU LIE ABOUT BEING HACKED?

With the follow up-

WHY ARE YOU NOW STATING THAT THIS WAS A PRANK?

With the follow up-

IF YOU LIE ABOUT THIS, WHAT HAVE YOU LIED ABOUT BEFORE?

With the follow up-

IF YOU ARE A CONSUMATE LIAR, IS IT TRUE THAT THE MONETARY SYSTEM IS TRULY IN FREE FALL AND YOUR ATTACK ON GOLD WAS AN ATTEMPT BY THE COMMUNISTS…………ERM DEMOCRATS TO COVER UP THAT FACT?

By the way, I capitalized because I was yelling these questions in the scenario.

The finger of a women`s scorn has entered the fabric of American society. The finger has frightened the bravest and has caused innocent men to hide their faces. The finger of accusation once pointed is a dagger that rips into the bankbook and the reputation of a scorned lover.

MSNBC’s Luke Russert just did a very fair assessment of The Weiner story on Jansing’s MSNBC show, so MSNBC has finally realized this is a real story. At least the hard-news side. No mention of Breitbart at all, I think.

Rep. Weiner’s testy interviews, inability to answer simple questions were noted.

In addition, Luke mentioned that in looking at Rep. Weiner’s Twitter follows (Twitter users whose tweets he follows), Luke said it’s noticeable that that many of those he follows are younger woman.

Sounds like the tipping point of the story.

Really, I don’t know what all the fuss is about. Dogs are always naked, and this story really isn’t all to interesting.

I super duper wish all of you lovely good-hearted people would turn all your latent productive energy towards the freeing of the canine members of our society, who desperately, deeply, and utterly need your help.

Hoping to see you soon!

I love it when a Democrat has a sex scandal. Poetic justice for those puritan hypocrites!
