Weiners

Yes that is the picture, it could be the congressman and it could also be a blooper from a sears ad:

Global warming, political instability, and economic crisis's be damned, nothing brings this country to a grinding halt quite like a penis or breast.

ain't it the truth!!

Interesting benefits to retaining a law firm to do your investigating.

1. It invokes client / attorney priviledge so the law firm cannot be compelled to release any info that they find.

2. He made or filed a claim to law enforcement that his computer was hacked. If he let the law do the investigation and if they found that he was spouting BS, he would, then, be on the hook for making a false claim which may be a felony.

The late night hosts are having a total field day with this talking about Member Weiner and how he should lighten up and not be so "stiff" about it all. John Stewart said he could tell that the guy definitely leaned to the left! HA HA HA HA HA!!!

The last paragraph is hilarious.

Weiner and Wiener are two different words, or names, and in their native German are pronounced in different ways.

Those of us who have taken German understand.

Still Weiner is a wiener.

I have people take photos of me in my underwear all the time. I can't be concerned about where those photos go.

I have the same problem. I just can't keep the paparazzi away (obviously just kidding).

Weiner, wiener, weener...

Tomato, tomahto...

His best statement so far has been that he's not sure if it's him or not. I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I would remember taking cadid shots of my Congressional "member" and what kind of underwear I have. That was probably a bit more damning than he first thought...

Seriously - all he had to say was "I didn't take/pose for that picture, I did not send it via twitter, and if that IS a picture of me, I am going to sue them for invasion of privacy!"

Covers all bases.

The real issue here is that it's not one. I'll bet it probably is his, but he should just lie about it and say it's not his. He's not under oath or even under investigation. No crimes or breaches of ethics have been committed. He's no Bill O'Reilly. He's simply made a fool out of himself.

The problem is he made a statement that he had been hacked, and there is a mandated Congressional process that has to be followed to deal with hacking. So far, that has not been done.
