The Internet was abuzz Saturday after it was reported that Rep. Anthony Weiner had apparently sent a lewd photo to a Seattle-area college student.
The New York Democrat quickly asserted that his online accounts had been "hacked" after Andrew Breitbart's BigGovernment.com reported that Weiner's Twitter account was used to send the photo, which shows the pelvic area of a man in gray undershorts with his tumescent penis bulging.
Late Friday night, a public message from Weiner's Twitter account (@RepWeiner) included a link to the penis photo, posted on the YFrog.com photo-sharing network. That message was directed to a Twitter account identified as belonging to 21-year-old Gennette Nicole Cordova, a student at Whatcom Community College in Bellingham, Washington.
Caches of Cordova's Twitter messages appeared to show that on April 9 she sent a message: "I wonder what my boyfriend @RepWeiner is up to right now." One of her friends on Twitter remarked the next day that Cordova's "crush" on the congressman was "cute." In one of his Twitter messages Friday announcing an appearance on the MSNBC cable network, Weiner made a joking reference to what time the show could be seen in Seattle.
Cordova's Twitter and Facebook accounts were deleted Saturday -- "Very odd," New York reporter Liz Benjamin remarked -- and the YFrog account that included the penis photo was also deleted. Media critic Lee Stranahan speculates on the motives for those deletions. While Weiner has made flippant references on Twitter to what was quickly dubbed "WeinerGate," he has made no explanation of how the "hacking" took place. Attempts to reach the congressman's press office were unsuccessful, blogger/talk-radio personality Peter Ingemi reported Saturday evening.

..Cordova attended Whatcom Community College..
I gather she did not have the grades for Wossamotta U!
Small wonder she didn’t go all hypenated and stuff, as her DC cohorts so often do. Huma Abedin-Weiner. The NOW community frowns upon such, lol.
I don’t know here is a pic of the evidence link only don’t know if it is copyrighted.

Does sound a little bit worse than a congressman posting a shirtless picture of himself online, does it?
Ted Bundy got someone to marry him even after he was convicted of murder.
Strike that...just looked at wikipedia and he had only been convicted of kidnapping and assault at the time he married his sweetie.
You are in an enormous group there, sport. I think the list of those who do not believe he's a closet homosexual is very small -- and shrinking by the hour.
This certainly goes beyond what Rep. lee did IMO. The lid will blow on this eventually. The Rat silence needs to be documented and used against them in 2012.
In all fairness I think Arianna made Michael gay..
Another NY congressman thinks he’s the Sheriff of Long Poke? Say it isn’t so.
Somebody should send that word to O’Reilly to use at the end of his show.
“When writing to The Factor, do not be TUMESCENT”.
Perhaps you're thinking of 'Nightstalker' Richard Ramirez, who got married in San Quentin after being convicted of 14 murders, 5 attempted murders and six rapes.
I’m sure there are many such examples. “They are just misunderstood. They’re not really bad people. There are no bad people.”
Yep. We should hammer this leftist scumbag until he is forced to resign. We should accept nothing less. Even if it were not a picture of, for, or by him...the seriousness of the charge requires it (the words of the left, used against them).
Yes there are...any number of serial killers get their groupies. I mention Ramirez only because he was probably the highest profile, and his marriage received a lot of publicity from the MSM.
Why am I not shocked by this?
