The scandal involving the transmission of a lewd photograph to 21 year-old college student Gennette Cordova via his Twitter account has Representative Anthony Weiner (D-NY) wondering what happened.
In response to the question of whether he is the person in the photo, Weiner replied, You know, Im not sure. Like any normal guy, Ive fooled around with my cameraincluding taking pictures of myself. So, I guess it could be me in the photo, but I dont remember sending it to that girl in Washington. Thats why I think my account must have been hacked.
Weiner said it is unlikely that he will be calling for an investigation of the alleged hacking because after all, who was hurt? Regardless of who sent the picture, its no big thing. Im sure college girls see guys in their underwear, or less, a lot. I mean, isnt it at colleges where streaking is done? I think just dropping the whole thing would be the best course for me and for America. Besides, all the attention to this is upsetting my wife.
Fellow New Yorker, Senator Charles Schumer (D), agreed, The media is making a mountain out of a molehill. If its okay for a President to get a blow job from an intern, why is a photo of a congressman in his underwear a federal case? Lets not lose our perspective. Its only a small peccadillo. We need to move on.
Joy Behar of The View sees the incident as evidence of a right wing vendetta founded on a knee-jerk opposition to pornography, which psychologists all agree is healthy. I just wish Congressman Weiner would include me the next time he tweets a photo of himself.

Maybe he was drunk at the time. Isn’t that enough of a reason?
No? Well, he was drunk, and he’s a democrat. Aren’t they enough reasons?
No? Well, he was drunk, he’s a democrat, he’s married to Hillary’s woman. Isn’t that enough?
No? Well, he was drunk, he’s a democrat, he’s married to Hillary’s woman, and he’s proud of it (his package that is)!
This should be enough. Exonerated. Go back to doing the people’s business sir.
Hilarious! Perfect ‘thumb in your eye’ to the left.
John... you know that each of the people that you “quoted” are just dying to make these exact statements! Well done!
Battle of the Bulge bump.....
Nobody said it was 'OK', Chucky, except you and other sleazy hacks like you.
Only the TSA officers at his local airport know for sure. LOL!
No, Weiner .... it isn't normal .... trust me on this one.
But that's what PhotoShop is for! That, and a cucumber....
Excellent as always, John!!
Weiner protests TOO MUCH.. he’s a regular protest machine..
A drama Queen.. and he always chooses the WRONG side of “an” issue..
If their is a wrong side.. Weiner is on it..
However; he can be wrongly right a couple times a day like a stopped clock..
There seems to be a loose or missing screw in every democrats head.. or even missing gears..
*cough* ...satire... *cough* :)
ONLY BEHAR WOU... oh, it's you, John.
What happened was that you sent a 'lewd' photo to a 21 year old girl.
Besides, all the attention to this is upsetting my wife.
Your stupidity is what made your wife 'upset'.

Nice choice of words, Chuckie. Blow job. Very classy. I'll also say that many of us did not think it was okay. Listen carefully Mr. Schumer. It's not okay, and this is why:
When the president engages in such actions, he may become compromised and subjected to black mail. If the blackmailer is from a hostile country, you'll do what they tell you to. Almost certainly it will be to the detriment of America.

Right wing blah, blah. Excuse me while I polish my jackboots.
Pornography is not healthy. Many sex criminals have a common thread, and surprise, it's pornography. I don't believe 'all psychologists' agree that it is 'healthy'. Not for a millisecond.
Got me again! Sheesh...however I’m sticking to my post.
That’s about the long and short of this story. Glad you raised it up the flagpole. To get through this incident, Weiner needs only to maintain a stiff upper lip...
That needs it's own headline.
LOL.
