Florida Republican Rep. Cliff Stearns is demanding an investigation into cybersecurity issues raised by #Weinergate, saying it is vital to ensure our national security.
Though New York Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner remains silent on whether or not hell be seeking an investigation into his claims that his Twitter and Facebook accounts were hacked, leading to his Twitter accounts posting of a picture of a mans erect penis underneath gray boxer-briefs, Stearns told The Daily Caller that the imbroglio raises troubling questions that should be looked into by Congress.
Although this particular incident is a matter for law enforcement, it clearly indicates that hacking is a serious problem and as Chairman it would be appropriate for the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee to examine the issue of cybersecurity to protect our privacy and to ensure our national security, Stearns said in an email to The Daily Caller.
Stearns is the chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committees subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, a committee on which Weiner sits.
Neither Weiner nor his spokesman Dave Arnold will say whether or not it is Weiner in the lewd photo, nor will they say if theyre seeking an official FBI or U.S. Capitol police investigation into the alleged hacking.

Bout time the Pubbies play hard...er...ball.... ;)
Yeah baby. Investigate this “hacking”. At least until Teenie Weenie yells uncle.
The first thing they should ask for is the transcripts of all private messages between the two parties involved.
That should wrap things up quickly.
Oh please, PLEASE investigate this!!
I want to see Pee-wee Weiner squeal like a piggy.
Yes~! WEINER should DEMAND an investigation~!
Don’t let those evil republicans do this to you~!
SUBPOENA THE RECORDS THAT SHOW THE IP ADDRESS OF WHERE THE MESSAGE CAME FROM~!!!!
After all, it is just an attempt to force you to resign in payback after that evil republican took off his shirt in a twitter picture.
(standing on the floor of the House) "... and I ask you, gentlemen and gentlepersons, what kind of a world do we live in, when the purported genitalia of one of our own, ah, members, can be cruelly exposed to public view, and to public humiliation, by the malice, or the stupidity of persons unknown?"
(/ Foghorn Leghorn)
Vie-enny sausages are now a national security issue?
Hey Stearns! You and the rest of Congress and the Senate should stay the hell off Twitter and Facebook and just do your jobs.....problem solved.
"What's all this about erections?"
GUILTY!
HE NEEDS TO LEAVE THE HOUSE......
when asked if that photo was him. Weiner didn’t answer the question! He needs to be GRILLED on this issue. wiener needs to be cooked and gone from Congress. The FBI needs to investigate like the did the Palin hacked account. wiener needs to step forward or be assumed that he is guilt of exposing his Weiner or dick.
