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.

It’s not a pretty picture. But one thing is interesting about it. Not many men have that scrawny of thighs! It’s got to be Weiner. Why would a staffer doing a prank or a hacker find a photo of some very skinny guy with a little sideways cocktail frank in his panties and send it to a college student with a crush on weenie? Who had just tweeted what time in Seattle his appearance on mad cow would be?
And for the ‘hacker’ to have tweeted it the exact same moment weenie boy was on his twitter account, wow!!
What luck!!!
Yes, I heard the garden didn’t do so well and they had to transplant from purchased plants so it wouldn’t look like a failure. I can believe that as there’s so much deception with those sitting in the white house now.
“journalists”??? You mean the same guys who howled and screeched no matter what the always- buttoned-down Nancy Reagan wore?
“hacked Weiner”? Aw c’mon I almost hurt myself over the prospect of a two-timing Weiner being treated to a Bobbitt moment.
Some Indian woman had a Bobbitt moment recently...and took it into a police station to prove she’d been raped!
His story, they were having an affair and he wouldn’t leave his wife and five children. And so......
Either way they can’t re-attach it...he’s done.
LOL - that’s the effect I was going for! Perhaps after ending his stint in Congress, Weiner could become a spokesperson for Snap-On Tools??
“I doubt the evidence will stand up in court.”
Contents of the top of my desk now under the hairdryer. Thanks a lot! This coffee disaster is entirely your fault!
:)
Is Weiner going to resign? (No)
Is Weiner going to be kicked out of office? (no)
Is Weiner going to be investigated? (no)
Is Weiner going to lose his next re-election? (no)
Is the media going to investigate Weiner and make a big deal out of this? (no)
It’s not even worth getting mad about.
Sorry America - you voted wrong. Now you get to pay for it. :(:(:(:(
Helen Thomas could get to the bottom of this Weinergate case.
Girthers = people who still think Weiner is telling the truth
