Or how politicians need to keep their pants on.

Weinergate-married-congressmans-twitter-account-shares-lewd-photo


New York Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner's Twitter account produced a shocking photograph Friday night. In a tweet directed to a Washington State woman, the married congressman linked to a photo of a man in underwear with a visible erection.

Big Government first reported that the congressman, who is believed to be interested in running for New York City mayor, tweeted the link to his Twitter-connected Yfrog account.

Four minutes after the tweet, Weiner complained that his Tivo had mis-recorded a hockey game.

Weiner then deleted the lewd tweet and wrote, “Tivo shot. FB hacked. Is my blender going to attack me next? #TheToasterIsVeryLoyal.” There are no indications that the congressman's Facebook account was tampered with.

The woman who the tweet was directed at deleted her account, and was not originally identified by Big Government. However, the tweet was located independently by other bloggers, who identified the Twitter handle of the woman.

The blog Ironic Surrealism found a second account believed to be the same woman. She is a journalism student at Whatcom Community College in Washington State.

The woman's original account tweeted to Weiner on April 9, “I wonder what my boyfriend @RepWeiner is up to right now,” according to a screenshot taken from Topsy by Ironic Surrealism. The account's cached contents were cleared Saturday.

Weiner was married less than one year ago to Huma Abedin, a longtime aide to Hillary Clinton.

If the photo turns out to be the congressman, it would come following revelations this year that former New York Republican Rep. Chris Lee sent photos of himself to women found on Craigslist, possibly including transgender women.

Fellow Twitter users have dubbed the episode #Weinergate. The congressman has yet to confirm whether he is pictured in the photograph.

Hey, someone hacked into his account and someone (maybe someone else) hacked into his pants.

Give the guy a break, he's just a victim.

:o

[paraclete]

It wouldn't be a sensation if the guy didn't have a convenient name

[tomder55]

Yeah because normally a Dem pulling a stunt like this isn't no big thang.

[tomder55]

Krystal Ball ,a contributor for Atlantic Mag and former Dem who got caught in a photo scandal herself suggests Weiner" bare it all and come clean "

[smoothy]

Problem is... when it's a Republican doing something stupid like that... they scream for their resignation... when it's a democrat... they scream he was set up.

They being the main stream media.


But damn... the guy have an almost perfect name... it would have been perfect had his parents named him Richard. With that last name in this scandal, man the things THAT would open up.

[tomder55]

House rules say that if an account used by a Representative gets hacked ,that Rep. must report it to the Capitol police . He has not done so yet .

Evidently it is possible to put a picture on someone else's Twitter acct without technically "hacking " . Not sure how it works ,but it has something to do with knowing Weiner's yfrog acct. password (if he even has one).
Still ;if someone other than Weiner posted the picture I would think the House rules would still apply just for the security aspects alone.

yeah because normally a Dem pulling a stunt like this aint no big thang.

Reportedly, that's why he won't commit to whether it was him.

[smoothy]

I hear Bill Clinton is coaching him to say it depends on what the definition of wiener actually is. And to deny that was him in those underpants even if they were his.

Weiner's dirty laundry

Wow, even the media are turning on him.

[smoothy]

Yeah... but not as fast or as vicious as they did when it was a republican that did it. But it is a step in the right direction.

[speechlesstx]

Hey, I give them credit when they deserve it.

Hey, I give them credit when they deserve it.

Yes... and I am giving them credit for not brushing it aside completely.

He's toast... he lost Ed Koch's support .

So the Weiner has been cooked and tossed on a bun...

[excon]

he's toast ...he lost Ed Koch's support .

Hello:

So, Ed KOCH is talking about Anthony WIENER. I want to hear from D*ck Cheney.

excon

[tomder55]

Seriously... Koch is a big deal here.
They just named the 59th St
Bridge (of Simon and Garfunkel fame) after Koch. He was the one who advised Bubba to tough out the Monica L crisis.

He's also just about had it with the President too .


Ummm that was Koch not Krotch
