Weiner admits tweeting with a minor
PJ Tattler ^ | June 10, 2011 | Bryan Preston

He says there was nothing indecent going on. Do we have any reason to believe anything he says, though? I’m just spitballing here, but he may, just may, be only admitting to as much as he absolutely has to. And with Patterico’s prosecutorial brief, lying about not tweeting with any minor at all became untenable.

Rep. Anthony Weiner sent private electronic messages to a 17-year-old Delaware girl but maintains there was nothing inappropriate in his communications with her.

In a statement to Roll Call Friday evening, the New York Democrat’s spokeswoman Risa Heller said, “According to Congressman Weiner, his communications with this person were neither explicit nor indecent.”

Heller’s statement comes after the New Castle County Police Department questioned the girl Friday afternoon, according to Fox News, which said it had reporters present at the home when police arrived.

Weiner became a “follower” of the girl, who is 17, on Twitter in April, and subsequently sent her direct messages. The content of those messages was unknown Friday.

Their content won’t be unknown forever, Weiner. Keep lawyerin’ up.

“Weiner became a “follower” of the girl, who is 17”

Even if I were to accept Weiner’s explanation (which I don’t, at this point) of things, this makes my skin crawl.

Yeah, it’s easy to rack up hundreds of “friends” on social media like Facebook and Twitter. It would be one thing if the 17 year old was say, living in his Congressional District and “followed” him. I’m sure most Reps and Senators get stuff like that.

But a 46 year-old man following the tweets of a teenager who’s living in a neighboring state, and that he doesn’t even know? Even in the best case scenario, that’s kinda creepy. And with Congressman Horshack, we’re probably not looking at the best case scenario...(<—understatement of the week).

With the internet publication of the explicit photo of him in a state of arousal, I predict that coming next election, Anthony Weiner will be facing some STIFF competition!

Late week when he had his press conference, he said none of the girls were underage, now he admits it was an underage girl. If he knows now, why didn’t he know then?

This degenerate admits to nothing until he is cornered and knows it has been or will be made public. What a pathetic little slime ball he is.

Like Nancy Pelosi she might like that sort of thing.

No doubt, since she appears to have more than one conflict.

Weener seems to enjoy these modified, limited hangouts.

Kind of sounds like we are talking about Bill Clinton again . . . but then, they did have a close personal friendship (Toon married Huma and he).

“Weiner confirmed the communications late in the day, but denied that anything inappropriate took place” (yeah, right)...

Of course he's fooling around with teenagers, that should be no surprise, he is mentally around 14 himself. Oh what is happening to our country when such excretable people are put in positions of trust and importance?

The MSM doesn’t care if Weinter was “doing” a teenager. What they want to know is did Sarah ever get caught going five miles an hour over the speed limit...

0bama should have Weiner be the front man for his 2012 campaign. Then, hia 2012 campaign “I’m in. Are you?” slogan takes on a whole new meaning. http://www.barackobama.com/im-in-splash-2

“People are “In” for many reasons. Why are you “In”? Tell us now.”

Sewage, like water, seeks its own level.

Politicians are not all corrupt
But a few can't survive a closeup
Their adventures risqué
Have been hidden away
But like corks, they just keep popping up

Weiner

                                          Nobody likes a whiny Weiner - or an impeached liar.
