Steny Hoyer defends Weiner in Twitter photo incident (Hoyer defends Weiner's weiner)
Washington Post ^ | 5/31/2011 | Felicia Sonmez

ouse Minority Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) on Tuesday expressed support for Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.), who said his Twitter account was hacked over the weekend when a lewd photograph showed up on the feed.

“Somebody hacked into his Twitter account and projected material -- which can happen, I guess, to anybody -- which was not generated by Mr. Weiner,” the second-ranking House Democrat told reporters Tuesday at his weekly roundtable.

Hoyer called the incident “unfortunate” and said that he had not spoken with Weiner but that he believes the lawmaker, who has retained an attorney, is “pursuing the proper authorities” to determine who may have hacked his account.

“I just heard about it just a few minutes ago, but my understanding is that that’s illegal activity, and the proper authorities are pursuing it,” Hoyer said.

What is it with Liberals and their infatuation with scrawny necked “leaders”. I could crush Weiner’s throat with a cough, and Hussein's with a fart. What the Liberals refuse to realize is that they could not exist without conservatives. We forge the way - every time. They set up a warm a fuzzy camp to deceive the weak after the warriors have secured safety and continued on to maintain and expand that which was wrought with their own sweat and blood.

The pic of Weiner's scrawny wiener was not generated by Weiner? Who was allowed access to fluff and photograph the Weiner wiener, then?

Sounds like Hoyer has the infamous blue dress and Tony Weiner confused.

Sandy Berger, a noted expert on stuffed underwear, should be appointed to head up a blue ribbon panel to look into this matter.

They could call it the Berger-Weiner Commission.
