Brietbart to use SEX SMEAR on Rep. Anthony Weiner. Push back needed
byMinistryOfTruth

On BigGovernment.com, http://biggovernment.com/publius/2011/05/28/weinergate-congressman-claims-facebook-hacked-as-lewd-photo-hits-twitter/ known serial liar and corporate hack Andrew Breitbart and friends have cooked up another Shirley Sherrod style attack on a Democrat, this time NY House Rep Anthony Weiner.

Hacked 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. http://twitter.com/#!/repweiner 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.

The picture in question is of a guy in his underwear with a boner. No face is shown.

I smell bullshit.

1. If Brietbart's involved, it's bullshit by definition. No face? No story....
...even if his name is Weiner.

2. "We’ve protected her name and her account". Uh huh.
"It's (the account) since been deleted" Translation: "It never exsisted"

9. Done!
Weiner should sue him. ANYONE who gets on his bad side should sue the shit out of him. He's allowed to continue because nothing ever happens to stop him, or to make him think twice because the ramifications are just so damn bad, messy, and costly. If he were suddenly made frantically busy lawyering up and having to defend himself from libel suit after libel suit after libel suit, maybe he wouldn't have as much time to screw other people and try to ruin their lives. And even if some other CONservative fat cat or "Americans for Prosperity"-type group coughed up the money, that'd still be money diverted away from where they'd rather spend it: buying TV time for commercials spreading "the gospel of paul ryan" or attacking Democrats.

ANY way to run up a bunch of bills for that side that they weren't expecting to have to pay - is yet another way to beat them. We have to attack from EVERY side, and EVERY angle imaginable. After all, they certainly don't hesitate to do that to our side, do they?

Hurt them where they'll hurt most: where their "hearts" are - in their wallets.

4. I would ask Breitbart to submit a underwear clad picture of his own
that should match the pic.

5. The penis in question appears to be of normal size. I don't
think Breitbart's that lucky.

6. I smell libel
or something. I wonder where Rep Weiner can find a lawyer, certainly not in New York, what a shame.

8. Sheesh.
If, big "if," it's true, the pic could easily have been snapped while closing a laptop. And the same thing can be seen on a beach. Big deal.

10. Here is the woman they're claiming got the tweet:
http://theothermccain.com/2011/05/28/weiners-wiener/

It looks like they're already trying to backtrack.

20. Any media outlet that pays attention to this deserves the same scorn as Breitbart.
Edited on Sat May-28-11 11:42 PM by Marr
Breitbart is a known liar and partisan smear merchant. Anyone who pretends to be "taken in" by his bullshit at this stage is complicit in it.
