Try thinking - Why won't Weiner deny it is a photo of him?

[jberryhill]

Because the next question after that answer is "prove it".

1. I've seen the pic

If people said that was mine, I'd be slow to deny it.

[lillypaddle]

2. Link?

:)

5. Sorry. I'm at work

6. Ditto. BIG time.

:rofl: If that's him, God was especially kind to him, lol.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

9. it is nice... n/t

[grasswire]

3. he skated when Wolf Blitzer asked him if he had ever taken a photo like that of himself.

He VERY smoothly glossed over that question. Very slick.

[arikara]

19. That is an ignorant question to begin with.

Really. Its not reporting, its muckraking at its worst. Wolf is a dough head and CNN is a cheap tabloid. How was he supposed to answer that stupid question???

23. +One billion four hundred seventy six million two hundred eighty nine thousand

three hundred and seventy six.

[NightWatcher]

4. he's not denying it, but saying it was hacked. So someone hacked his computer, found his junk shot..

then tweeted it?

If he's not outright denying, I suspect he's working on an excuse


Sounds like another special election for NY Rep

[damntexdem]

8. What's this? A special erection?

;-)

[KittyWampus]

12. Why? Having your account hacked isn't illegal.

[HipChick]

20. Umm..yes it is...Palin's hacker got jail time...

[Vinca]

7. What man on earth would deny that photo was of him? LOL.

[emilyg]

10. A mature lawmaker would.

[KittyWampus]

13. Not if there are legal reasons for taking his current strategy.

[K8-EEE]

24. A mature lawmaker can have private photos of themselves

God the puritanical ninnies in this country, unbelievable!

[KittyWampus]

11. EXACTLY! This is the "did you stop beating your wife". There is no answer that will stop the

mediawhores.

[WingDinger]

14. The linkage to Rep. Lee and his craiglist flex, is the aim.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

15. My guess is that he took it for his wife.

[WingDinger]

25. What would you call a mural shot, that was cropped, to show just

YOUR bulge, and they asked is that your bulge? And you didnt have a clue whether that was your bulge, or whether or not you even had a picture like that around.

If you say no, that is not mine, they would scream for a supeona to search for the blue dress. And hope for a little DNA from his piss stain, for kicks. Only far later, knowing that just because he said that is not him, and a hugely cropped picture of people, and his crotch which resulted in finding that piece of clothing, and then calling him a liar, is ALTOGETHER TOO POSSIBLE.



They would love a witch hunt. It has sent a message to dems. Go all Grayson on them, or make them look stupid, and you will be targetted by the silent army. Slimy characters that will sacrifice their dignity, and even risk prison, to throw politics by smear. Look at the Okeefe tappings. They tap for info, and then use that info to gain advantage, or even set up. Look at how they are operating in Britain. Tapping even key politicians, to gain info to set them up.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

26. Did you see the pic and its resolution and angle? That was not cropped out of wide angle shot. Maybe

the "bulge" part was photoshopped in, but otherwise it looks real to me, and I couldn't give a crap. I went to what I considered a plausible explanation for it.

Hacking it from his personal account should be a crime that's investigated.

[The Second Stone]

17. I've seen the photo and I can't be sure it is not me

I have gray undies. I've never taken such a picture myself, but who am I to say someone else hasn't?

If it is the Congressman's member under that cloth, it is still an invasion of his privacy to publish it. That's the point.

[DFab420]

18. Shhhhh your logic may make some heads explode..

please be smart carefully.

[Aerows]

21. Why should he prove it one way or the other?

What difference does it make? If he didn't send the picture or of another man in his underwear, end of story.

If you have never taken a picture that can be remotely construed as racy, then I suspect you are in the minority. I don't know the context of the underwear shot, but if he didn't send it out to random strangers, I don't really care who it is.

This is the most ill-conceived smear I've ever seen. I'm supposed to get upset that someone has a picture of themselves in their underwear in their private photos? OMG. Shock and Amazement.

[spin]

22. There are many important news stories occurring right now ...

that dwarf the importance of some picture insinuating that Weiner is Captain Underpants.

We have a 24/7 news media overflowing with reporters who have fantastic technology at their fingertips. Unfortunately the management of this media has their heads right up their collective asses or is bought and paid for by the corporations which run our nation.

In the last several days I have watched hours and hours of coverage about Weiner's wiener. While I normally use the news as background noise while I am on the computer I am about ready to start listening to Howard Stern on Sirius Satellite Radio. I can learn more about the news by listening to Howard plus he's more entertaining.
