Did N.Y. Congressman Send Penis Photo to Student?

The Internet was abuzz Saturday after it was reported that Rep. Anthony Weiner had apparently sent a lewd photo to a Seattle-area college student.

The New York Democrat quickly asserted that his online accounts had been "hacked" after Andrew Breitbart's BigGovernment.com reported that Weiner's Twitter account was used to send the photo, which shows the pelvic area of a man in gray undershorts with his tumescent penis bulging.

Late Friday night, a public message from Weiner's Twitter account (@RepWeiner) included a link to the penis photo, posted on the YFrog.com photo-sharing network. That message was directed to a Twitter account identified as belonging to 21-year-old Gennette Nicole Cordova, a student at Whatcom Community College in Bellingham, Washington.

Caches of Cordova's Twitter messages appeared to show that on April 9 she sent a message: "I wonder what my boyfriend @RepWeiner is up to right now." One of her friends on Twitter remarked the next day that Cordova's "crush" on the congressman was "cute." In one of his Twitter messages Friday announcing an appearance on the MSNBC cable network, Weiner made a joking reference to what time the show could be seen in Seattle.

Cordova's Twitter and Facebook accounts were deleted Saturday -- "Very odd," New York reporter Liz Benjamin remarked -- and the YFrog account that included the penis photo was also deleted. Media critic Lee Stranahan speculates on the motives for those deletions. While Weiner has made flippant references on Twitter to what was quickly dubbed "WeinerGate," he has made no explanation of how the "hacking" took place. Attempts to reach the congressman's press office were unsuccessful, blogger/talk-radio personality Peter Ingemi reported Saturday evening.

Apparently Weiner was also following this female high school student until last night.

The only thing tumescent about Weiner is his ego.

You know, “Tumescent” would be a great name for a band.

And there was no immediate evidence that it was a terrorist attack.

Congrats, you understood the “layers” in my original post, and why we need to see original signed docs, with seals, and NOT digital images

Some people are talking about the EXIF data of the photo which could prove he took it from his camera/device. But the real key is the IP address. Twitter almost definitely has records of the originating IP address. Since Weiner posted just before and right after the “hacked” post, then the “Weiner” post should have a different IP if it truly was made by a hacker.

Bear in mind that the producers of The Hurt Locker are suing 25,000 people who they claim illegally downloaded their movie, and they are using IP address records as the evidence.

So if Twitter provided the IP addresses in question, then the ISP(s) who owns it (them) could tie it to Weiner. But in this case all you’d need is to show the posts he isn’t disputing came from the same IP as the post he claimed was made by a hacker.

He isn't going to any authorities... & I doubt he ever will because the image originated with him.

Hacking a Congressional official is a serious crime. The idiot is claiming a crime happened and then doing nothing about it.

We need term limits on congress desperatley.

We need an educated electorate even more. If term limits worked, California would have a responsible legislature.

It will be interesting to see how many other women (and men) students come forward, having been sent obscene photos by Rep Anthony Weiner. Of his genitalia.

That girl, when asked what she majors in, can honestly reply “I’m a student of weiner’s weiner.”

I wonder what Anthony Weiner’s budget is for sending images of his genitals across state lines to students.

I doubt the evidence will stand up in court.

I did not realize that Anthony Weiner had married Hillary Clinton's longtime assistant Huma Abedin. How would you like to be stuck with this name?

Huma Weiner
