The Jig Is Up: Yfrog Disables E-mail Upload Service; Anthony Weiner Stands Vindicated
The blog Cannonfire, which closed the case yesterday on the so-called "Weinergate" affair when it demonstrated conclusively how anyone could use a simple technique to publish any picture they wanted to another person's Twitter stream, now reports that yfrog.com has disabled the e-mail service that enables such exploits, thereby acknowledging the existence of a security problem and tacitly acknowledging that it has been abused. In short, it is no longer possible for a reasonable person to believe that Rep. Weiner was not framed by an outside party.

12. Backing away?
He is? I heard an ad for Hannity today: "Conservative commentator Andrew Brietbart will talk about Weinergate..." :eyes: So what did he do or say today that would indicate he's backing away from the story?

7. Weiner should proclaim that he didn't do it. That's the only way to end the story.
His half-answers prolong his agony, IMO.
