Weinergate: Congressman Claims ‘Facebook Hacked’ as Lewd Photo Hits Twitter
by PubliusHacked or hung?
Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY 9″) finds himself in a late night online pickle.
This evening a photo surfaced on Congressman Weiner’s yfrog account and in his verified Twitter timeline of a man in his underwear with an erection. The photo was reportedly sent to a woman on Twitter. We’ve protected her name and her account, which was at one time verified to be active but has since been deleted after the photo in question was deleted. Coincidentally, the rest of the photos in the congressman’s alleged yfrog account were also deleted around 11 p.m. eastern.
Is this the Tweet in question? Was Weiner hacked?
Weiner, who married Hillary Clinton’s longtime assistant, Huma Abedin, last year, has been Tweeting about hockey this evening. Confusion reigns online as puzzled Weiner followers wonder what occurred to Weiner’s timeline.
The photo, stored at Weiner’s alleged yfrog account, is connected to his verified Twitter account. Were his yfrog and Twitter accounts hacked as well?

Rep. Weiner claims that his Facebook account was hacked. We were unable, at this late hour, to reach anyone at Congressman Weiner’s offices for comment.

Aaaaaaagggggghhhhhhhh! My eyes are burning! Love that this happened to that dick but dang I didn't want to see that.
Muahh-ha-ha. . . It's not BAD, but because of who it belongs to. . . I have to say, "Augh, my eyes. . ." and move on.
*Quinn*
Weiner is a weiner!
Didn't they just have an election in New York District 26, where a Republican resigned for sending out "lewd" photos of himself. Will there be an investigation? I think not.
Wouldn't a hacker post a much more graphic photo?
Investigate and prosecute according to the law. Don't let this go! This has to be explained by Weiner himself. Republicans- – be smart and do your duty. This is unacceptable behavior. Assign someone to this case and remove him from office just like the Republican was.
So the breaking news is that Rep Weiner is a D!ck?
DUH. Have you seen the spew he ejects on TV?
Like another comment said, if he were GOPhe would be run out of town on a rail. But the party of Bawney Fwank is different. This means he is likely headed for a leadership role. Heck he just proved he is a bigger d!ck than Pelosi they probably see him as Speaker material now!
My sentiments exactly. Ughhh. and I'm so glad it's him. The littl little angry man. Investigate and remove him from office. They did it to a Repubican recently. This is behavior that is unacceptable as a Congressman, the little weiner.
Where is Beavis and Butthead when you need them?
His name is Weiner !
Nah… too easy……:) !!!
Right?
Little Weiner indeed………….and here's the proof!!!!!
Those of us here in New York don't need any Weiners representing us.
We know who the real "baggers" are. They ain't us.
Imagine if Twitter and Facebook were around when Clinton was in office.
EDIT: BTW, the tweet right before his lewd photo he mentions the time in Seattle… and the woman goes to Western Washington University… and called herself a "Seattleite" on her twitter profile. I think both tweets were meant to be twitter DMs(Direct Messages).
===========================
The lady he tweeted the photo to deleted her twitter AND facebook accounts… I can see twitter maybe(though it's still odd) but why facebook? Her photo is still on facebook though.

Here she is on formspring…
http://files.formspring.me/profile/20110331/n4d94...
Since you guys didn't release her name I won't say it here… it is possible this is just a big misunderstanding but this seems odd…
Great point, Darogr.
I seem to recall a certain republican congressman did this just a couple months ago and he was forced to resign by speaker Boehner…
I wonder if the Wunderweiner will resign in disgrace as Mr Lee did or if he'll get a pass because he's a democrat and the media will look the other way…?
Wunderweiner should demand a police and FBI investigation, "IF" he's telling the truth about being hacked then there will be electronic finger prints if not somebody gets a face full of gooey shame…
Perhaps that's a cigar? I am sure Slick Willy has taught Anthony a few lessons. Just drop your pants and see what happens from there. Don't worry about your wife, she is friends with Hilary… she is used to this kind of behavior.
I've been waiting for a story like this to arise to use this hilarious Photoshop™. http://nosheepleshere.blogspot.com/2011/05/weiner...
I thought this pic was his reaction to Sarah Palin's new film Triumph Of The Will! Or was that your reaction?
Smell the fear.
Is that really Dick Weiner?
Hahaha ababa! Thanks for the laugh this morning.:)
That settles it-boxerbriefs! We all wanted to know.
Was this a hack job- probably. Is this type of behavior within the realm of reality for Wiener? Uh, YEAH!
How apropos. Here we are grilling a Brat on Memorial Day weekend.
I think his "wiener" IS doing the talking ;-]
Huma's beard.
I understand all this, but I won't be able to sleep ever again for fear of nightmares.
At least Michael Savage had the good sense to rid himself of his former last name…Weiner!
Yes, now they can get ready for another "special erection".
couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
If this was a planned tactical attack, which is what they're going to claim…you would use the worst possible photo, and embarrass the heck out of the subject to prove the photo was faked, Photoshopped, etc…
Even to "exposing the truth", if you mind my meaning…
DON"T POST ANYTHING ONLINE YOU DON"T WANT GETTING LOOSE…that's what Polaroids are for…
*snicker*
Excellent…!!
What a dick!
I was all prepared for the normal and usual, customary Friday Night Document Dump and News Dump by the the White House or the DNC, but this surprises even me.
Is there any truth to the rumor, that Big-Dik Weiner is going to change his account name to "Little Dickerus"?
Leave it to Anthony Weiner to display his shortcomings.
DEVELOPING ::gigglesnort:: Sorry, I'm 12.
lol I love how every single inappropriate tweet from someone "famous" or some company is the fault of "an intern who has since been let go" or a hacker. I'm beginning to think that SOMEBODY thinks us peons are stupid…and blind and deaf as well.
Nancy will ask Weiner to,…….
"give it up"
you sure know how to tie up loose ends
"Kneel and blow"…
Here is why this happened.
Weiner will now take lead in the charge to make all internet accounts government operated. We just can't have this hacking going on and government will ensure safety online.
These pukes have no shame in their actions to set up their political plays.
Watch as Wiener makes the case that if even a mighty government official is vulnerable, then government just HAS to take over to make everyone safe.
Jeez, what a crock.
Boehner got that shirtless congressman (NY26th) to,…..
give up his seat.
What will Nancy ask Weiner to GIVE,…?????
Perhaps this might be a good thing for this RATTY looking dick. After all, lots have been going wrong for the Weenie-Guy, so a big distraction might help him!
Guess "Weiner" is in a "pickle," and may no longer be a "member" of Congress
Yeah, right, hacked.. These people think they can get away with anything..
yep,.gotta pass it to taste what's in it.
He was hacked.
I don't find this funny. I can't stand this guy one iota, but whoever did this is just plain childish.
All I have to say is: "Is that all you got, AW?"
"NY 9"? should be more like NY 4!
I bet you are all ass and no weiner.
That seems to be the reaction of all liberal meterosexual males to Palin. The want to hate **** her. Such great guys.
Rep. Weiner
Hummmm Just as i though no balls at-all..
TECH SUPPORT, PLEASE! I'm a non-twittererererer.
Can someone explain Twitter to me? Is it possible to limit a tweet to specific recipients? I find it inconceivable that he would deliberately broadcast a pic of his dick.
Damn, for a man with the last name of Weiner, you would think he had something more than that. Maybe he should change his first name to Cocktail.
I always new he was a little putz!!!!!!!!!!
Even if it's confirmed to originate from his accounts, he could easily claim he was hacked because the true identity of this wiener bandit simply can't be verified by the photo. After all, the dude's name is 'Weiner' – obviously, this is an ideal prank to play. On the other hand, I wouldn't put any act of profound perversion and adolescent stupidity passed a politician these days. We know he's an idiot, but the more operative question is, is he that reckless? Mike Lee was. After that incident, you'd think these morons would be more careful. Makes you wonder if the administration is picking them off one by one when they become less useful. Personally, I'd love it to be authentic – "Weiner tweets his wiener" – is too funny a story to pass up.
Looks like half wood to me. Unimpressive.
HUNG…i.e. caught with his hand in the cookie jar. He's a member of Congress that should be held to a higher standard…force him to resign!
is that Wieners OSCAR myer wiener??
oh and DON'T BUY GOLD,.. Wiener says it's a scam.
How much has gold gone up in price since last week AGAIN??
Gold Price Close Today :1,180.10
Gold Price Close 22nd April: 1,142.30
Change: 37.80 or 3.3%
Slime ball. Go and google the Vanity Fair artical from I think 2001….Weiner was hitting on 25 year staff assistant..this is par for the course…
Weiner, tee hee!
As I've said before, the conduct, assuming he was not hacked, is not illegal. Two other things, he wasn't explicitly seeking out sex, like the congressman (R) in NY, and this picture does not contain any identifying factors.
Eh, people who are claiming that "if it were a hacker they'd use something worse", not necessarily. Think about it like this, if you dislike someone, and you can hack, then, you'd just post something that's lewd, but believable. This fits both of those categories.
Is he proud of it….?….or what ?
I think rep weiner has been into too many turdbags. The wifey is just cover for him….gotta be a flamer.
So. It's gross. just like the little squeeky pillow biter himself. He should save that for his boyfriend and instead, the world gets to see it. The sock in his shorts that is.
I love how much you lefties fear Palin. It makes me smile.
no question it was hacked… he only acts like he has one…
Weiner looks to have one of those little cocktail type weiner's.
What a tool!
Couldn't have happened to a more appropriately-named guy.
barney frank is asking for this girlyboys phone number, ASAP
Maybe more like a link sausage.
Nothing worse than a hacked Weiner.
I thought the picture at the top of the story was the real dickhead.
No, they're still you.
Not if someone hacked his account and posted the photo moron. Stick to what you're good at Missy. That's probably nothing but still.
Was he hacked? Gee, I wonder.
You people are retarded.
Keep drinking the Kool-aid and buying the first excuse given by your beloved socialist comrades, he did it and nobody else, period.
Weiner is that you? Too late.
You are a douche.
And you are so imaginative and creative!
I had no idea Bellevue's rubber room had internet access.
"You people are retarded."
Did I misread this or did you stutter? I believe you made that comment above, blockhead.
Like I said, don't sling sh!t if you cannot take it in return. And don't feign outrage when you're just as guilty of your accusations.
Also, you wouldn't know what to do with my mother. Probably just cry and whine about how life's so unfair once you were in bed.
Still haven't gotten a life? Geez, you are pathetic.
Weiner is just into games, I believe his affinity to women is minimal
and this number is a way of diverting attention from the fact that he s
a flaming "Friend f Dorothy", women, don't worry, this picture is for the
other type.
SOCIALISM IS SO EVIL, LIKE, THE USSR WAS A SOCIALIST STATE, NOT A COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COMRADE!
I confess, it was me in the pic! I was on my way to Mass.
He is married to Huma???? Isnt that supposedly Hillary's ummmmm long term ummmmmm "friend"?
Red tags are out giving everybody thrums down…
never seen so many – and 0 in any post…
Somebody must be giving that little prick Weiner a hand…
Awwww!!!! Oh!!! my eyes…..my beautiful eyes……Oh wait thats just his chap stick…………….
CAN YOU DESCRIBE THE PERPETRATOR, yes it looked like a weiner but only smaller
Yet one more example of how Sarah Silverman is richardporter's sock puppet…or vis-a-versa.
Also not surprising it would rear it's ass head on a post concerning a shorts shot. Just adding more gender confusion to the fire. Heh.
Is this photo geotagged?
Little weiners from TMZ should be showing up shortly:
http://www.tmz.com/2011/05/29/congressman-anthony...
Of all the pictures you DON'T block out….it would have to be THAT one. We really didn't need to see Weiner's weiner!!!
LOL at the #weinermovies being tweeted in re: to #weinergate …
heads up to Bigs editorial board – nothing happens when i click 'tweet this' article. i am taken to my home twitter page and no text or hyperlink to the story appears. perhaps twitter is…mad at you.
edit: i must click 'add' then 'twitter'. the 'tweet this' button does not properly function.
a further study of the lewd photo here:
http://obamuh.blogspot.com/2011/05/inconvenient-w...
1. His wife is going to know if those are his underwear or not.
2. The way the young woman is acting is like someone who has been "caught", not like someone who got an unsolicited inappropriate message out of the blue from "Woody" Weiner.
Weiner Hacked.
John Wayne Bobbitt sends sympathy card.
A word to the wise.
Once infected, no amount of Weiner scrubbing will keep it from going viral.
The picture looks like him.
