That’s really the question. The the Twitter recipient of the picture of Weiner’s alledged weiner responds.
“Friday evening I logged onto Twitter to find that I had about a dozen new mentions in less than an hour, which is a rare occurrence. When I checked one of the posts that I had been tagged in I saw that it was a picture that had supposedly been tweeted to me by Congressman Anthony Weiner.
The account that these tweets were sent from was familiar to me; this person had harassed me many times after the Congressman followed me on Twitter a month or so ago. Since I had dealt with this person and his cohorts before I assumed that the tweet and the picture were their latest attempts at defaming the Congressman and harassing his supporters.
Annoyed, I responded with something along the lines of “are you f***ing kidding me?” and “I’ve never seen this. You people are sick.” I blocked their accounts, made my page private, and let the matter drop, expecting them to eventually do the same.”
However in spite of the denials I’m told that AB has more information on this and is about to release it. Nevertheless the real question is why is a 46 year old married man following a 21 year old college student on Twitter? I’ve bee married 28 wonderful years but if my wife saw that I was following young college age women the Ranger would have some explaining to do.

“Let’s apply this to Anthony Weiner…
“Hey, honey – I know that my Twitter account sent a photo of what may look like my hairless legs and possibly my junk to one of the woman who I follow on Twitter. And right, I follow less than 100 people. And yes, this woman who referred to me online as ‘her boyfriend’ and her friend said she has ‘a crush’ on me – and okay, she lives in Seattle and retweeted me saying what time in Seattle I’d be on the Rachael Maddow show. And yes, within 3 hours of me supposedly sending her the photo of my alleged junk I erased all my pictures from my YFrog account and sure, she deleted her Twitter and Facebook accounts.
But I have a simple explanation—I was hacked.
And no, I haven’t given any indication of having filed a police report of any kind about being hacked.
But I was hacked. Here’s some flowers. And a teddy bear.”
Would YOUR spouse buy that one?”
Mine would die laughing if I came up with that excuse.
It looks like there is a lot more to this story.
UPDATE: If you really want a laugh get a load of C-BS’s dismissal of the story.
