Anthony Weiner

<p>What a disaster this guy is…love the quote from him, that it might be his wiener,but he isn’t sure…</p>

<p>Hard to tell.</p>

<p>But, it’s impossible to say with certitude - or a straight face. That’s one last name that people should be allowed to change, no questions asked.</p>

<p>Maybe he has so many of those type of photographs floating around out there, he can’t be sure. You know how it goes when you’re a powerful senator.</p>

<p>At least he isn’t forcing his wife to face the press by his side, stoic smile on her face, etc.</p>

<p>Have seen that scene a few too many times.</p>

<p>I think he should release all of his underwear to the press so it can be determined if any of them are the shorts in the picture.</p>

<p>“I think he should release all of his underwear to the press so it can be determined if any of them are the shorts in the picture.”</p>

<p>Most certainly, but even if they are his shorts, how can they determine it was actually him? I think he should have several shots taken of himself in “different states of interest” and send them to the press so they can investigate if indeed, it was really him.</p>

<p>Because of course, the public’s need to know is all-encompassing.</p>

<p>Well, it does seem pretty clear now (see smokinggun and salon) that even if it is a photo of him, it’s a private photo that was somehow stolen and then hacked by Dan Wolfe in a way that made it appear that the Congressman tweeted it – especially given the fact that Wolfe was tweeting more than two weeks before this happened that “someone” had “sex scandal” photos of Weiner, and then, by a remarkable coincidence, turned out to be the only person in the entire world, out of all the people who follow Weiner on twitter, to claim to have captured the photo from a tweet that the Congressman made.</p>

<p>Of course, since Weiner’s only been married for less than a year (I believe), how does anyone know they aren’t just from some ex-girlfriend? It’s a long way from this to Governor Spitzer, unless proven otherwise. And it does seem that the only illegality here was committed by Wolfe and/or Andrew Breitbart, not the Congressman.</p>

<p>Without getting too graphic, the idea some people have that he should immediately be able to recognize whether it’s a photo of himself seems odd to me. How many men know exactly what they look like from that angle?</p>

<p>^^^ i think one would know if it was a picture of themselves because most people don’t take pictures of themselves…if you didn’t take a photo like that,then it likely isn’t you. ;)</p>

<p>Only a man thinks that photos of his bulging genitalia are somehow a turn-on for women. </p>

<p>Clueless.</p>

<p>I think it’s Jim Palmer</p>

<p>I agree with TatinG. So does Monica Hesse in the Washington Post: [Listen</a> up, fellas: Naked man-parts? Not so sexy. - The Washington Post](<a href=“http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/listen-up-fellas-naked-man-parts-not-so-sexy/2011/06/01/AGMKSgGH_story.html]Listen”>http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/listen-up-fellas-naked-man-parts-not-so-sexy/2011/06/01/AGMKSgGH_story.html)</p>

<p>^^^That’s a great article. :)</p>

<p>Have any of you been following Jon Stewart’s coverage of this story? All of the clips are up on the Daily Show site. The Tuesday bit was the best, but Wednesday’s story was hilarious, too.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Crud, that explains a few things then…</p>

<p>Listen to Hanna! Just watched the Jon Stewart clips. OMG! If you need a laugh, check them out.</p>

<p>He must have been taking pictures of himself at SOME point to be uncertain if these pictures are of him. This is just crazy funny.</p>

<p>I just watched the Daily Show clips and laughed out loud. These should not be missed!</p>

<p>Ok…another video giggle from Colbert</p>

</p>

<p>Exactly…it would be very bad to be caught lying, much worse than having everyone think that you’ve taken photos of your crotch.</p>
