Andrew Breitbart showed picture to radio hosts who took their own picture
Radio show hosts' picture was leaked on Twitter Twitter group 'bornfreecrew' was monitoring Weiner's account
Group warned women about Congressman months before scandal broke
Wife said to be in Libya on diplomatic trip with Hillary Clinton
Censored: Anthony Weiner faced fresh humiliation today after an uncensored photo of his genitals was leaked on to the internet Anthony Weiner faced the ultimate humiliation today after an uncensored photo of his genitals was leaked on to the internet. Conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart, who previously said he had the photo in his possession but would not release it, showed the picture on his cell phone to hosts on a Sirius radio show this morning.
Sirus XM's Opie and Anthony quickly took a snap of Breitbart's screen and tweeted the image. Breitbart revealed he had an inappropriate picture of Weiner during an appearance on the Today show yesterday. It was also revealed today that women were warned about Weiner by a conservative Twitter group months before the sexting scandal broke.

Breitbart could sue and has a better case against Weiner than Sherrod has against him.
Weiner did it to himself.
Remember how effective the multiple-abortion clinic and ACORN video exposures were.
This was a shot over Weiner's bow. Bretibart's got plenty more where that's coming from.
Actually, it's probably a shot over a lot of lib Dems' bows as well.
Drudge likes to say he, "likes to go where the stink is...."
Breitbart has the knack for producing "the visuals for the stink" in living color.
No one can touch Breitbart because he didn't post the pictures himself -- liberal shock jocks did -- because Breitbart, knowing the mind of liberal shock jocks -- knew they couldn't help themselves, if they ever did obtain such pix.
He can actually say that what was obtained by liberal shock jocks was obtained surreptitiously and as he says -- done without either his authorization or knowledge (hence legally speaking: no mens rea)
Breibart sits back like the cat who swallowed the canary, and watches Weiner die the political death of thousand cuts for his ever alleging the Breitbart "hacked" his account.
If he's got this kind of stuff on Weiner, one wonders what he has on other libs -- maybe even someone like Barney Frank. And I mean something more than just salacious pix and videos.
Breitbart knows this is a street fight. Actually, it's about time that someone in the conservative ranks recognized this fact. Be glad he's got the guts, the wit, and the talent to stay 10 steps ahead of the opposition.
Hmmmm. Makes you wonder what kind of information/intelligence he may have ever fed Donald Trump.
Let Breitbart have his fun.
And let liberals everywhere be scared.
FReegards!
The press boys in the dem's pockets have done this for years - for Dems. Nice that we have someone on our side - - finally.
For the sake of integrity and what is good, this can not be acceptable or ok’ed with a ‘rebuke’. His time is over, he has a responsibility to conduct of truthfulness and integrity. He blew it. He can seek forgiveness from God off the job. Honestly, I doubt he will seek God at all. All he cares about is not getting caught and keeping his job because of the perks of power. He hopes it will all go away...oh well, for him. It's over. God is forgiving, but it does not mean he can keep his job. Consequences, we all have to face them good and bad. So it's important to make good choices.
Idiot? It's called Plausible deniability. I really can't fathom why so many on this thread are upset at AB.....It's a masterstroke, and weiner is done.
Forgiveness and mercy are for God in this case, not the outraged citizenry.
Politics is of Caesar....render unto him on this one, Archbishop.
It is that too. But I think you are way off on this being a badge of honor. You even have Ed Schultz calling for the resignation. The bold face lie is what is going to take him down for good. America as a whole is getting tired of being lied to. We are in unchartered waters as far as the economy and foreign matters, and that is something the American people can not control. What they can control is those who serve the Country at the voting booth. This is the outlet for people’s frustrations, on both sides of the isle.
Thanks for the link. Anyone with the slightest doubt about whether Weiner should resign should be shown this video. Just based on his avoidance of the questions and his (typical liberal) tactic of ignoring a direct question and then making accusations shows all of us what a slimeball this guy is. There is no way this guy should receive paychecks paid by taxpayers. He should also lose any right to retirement and other benefits that follow those in congress.
Ditto!
Thank you. I never thought of it that way.
It was his mistake to say he wouldnt release it. He should have released it himself, “discretely”.
I say PILE IT ON BABY!
I saw that increasingly idiotic Chuck Krauthammer on Fox last night warning the GOP of “piling on” and then he brought up Clinton and said the Repubs made a big mistake by “piling on with impeachment”.
Earth to Chuck...Earth to Chuck...he committed perjury as president in a federal court in front of a grand jury you arrogant elitist fake conservative Palin hating a**hole. The GOP in the House were DOING THEIR JOB AND DUTY under the Constitution you jerk.
Or is the Constitution to be ignored Chuck? That’s what your leftwing Dem friends believe.
In the last few months I’ve lost all respect for Krauthammer as a commentator and lately as a human being.
Looks like his brain got paralyzed also (don’t write about how awful that is...I’m tired of being nice to idiots).
As the monsignor says — Can we be the judge. The man has sinned. God will be the ultimate judge.
I’m really not a pacifist, I just found this point of view very different.
We have to answer for our sins too.
We'll get better. We are not used to fighting as dirty as the Demorats, so we are going to make mistakes, but we'll learn from those mistakes.
Rush Limbaugh said with the Foley incident that it was time to take the gloves off and I still think he is right.
That’s good to hear. Thanks for the info. I wish, however, Andrew would not have been careless.
So, not wanting to view the evidence, I would like to know if Weiner’s weiner was Ballpark Frank size or coctail smokie size. ;-D
To which I freely reply: I most certainly can because I am in a credible position to do so.
Matthew 7:1&2 "Judge not that ye be not judged...." is not so much a command as it is strong advice. It is an admonition directed at hypocrites. Christ amplifies that advice with the rationale for it.
Read in context: "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."
So when one finds themselves in the position to judge the character of others based on their actions, one has to ask themselves whether they too are prepared to be judged by the same standard.
I am perfectly prepared to be judged by the same standard. Are you?
God doesn't require me to check the wisdom of common sense he has blessed me with at the door of applying it to human misbehaviors. This is where the "worry trolls" - who willfully eschew what should be their conscience-informed commonsense ability to judge and discern -- by contrast lose all their credibility -- and allow for the mockery of the wisdom they should display.
All the "worry trolls" -- this monsignor included -- who wring their hands about judging others I'd have to guess have more skeletons in their closets than they'd want to admit.
Me? I'm abundantly and confidently blameless in the area that I choose to heap commonsense blessed judgment in the direction of Anthony Weiner and his current foibles. In fact, I hope it destroys every last vestige of his power to influence anything politically.
Charitably speaking, I hope he can correct this aspect of himself short of a narcissism-driven suicide, an option to which so many with his similar character traits often resort.
Should he choose to resort to cowardly suicide -- his "opus," and his one last bottle-rocket accelerated splash on the tele -- it will be too late for him to correct anything, and there will be no follow up interviews to shed more tears, dodge more imaginary pies thrown from the back of his equally imaginary 15,000 seat audience, and there will be no more opportunity to issue still more tortured clarifying statements.
FReegards!
