He didn't hide from the questions last night on Rachel Maddow.
He most certainly did!
I just watched the Rachel Maddow interview, and Rep. Weiner still would not deny that the pic was his.
What's so difficult about replying YES or NO to this direct question?
That, my friend, is hiding from the truth. If Weiner was completely innocent, then his answer would have been "NO" and there would be NO STORY.
Watch it again and this time listen. He dismissed it off with a joking response before going into his explanation around the 4:00 to 4:30 mark.
He explained it the way he felt necessary given the circumstances he finds himself in, which most likely includes information from sources not even you or I know about.
If is answer would have been "NO", there would still be a pseudo-story since it doesn't explain how and why his Twitter account was hacked, nor would any of his political opponents allow the story to die. Let's not get naive here. On top of this, metadata has proven that the photo was not sent from the usual sources that Weiner uses to update his social networking connections, and Brietbart already got the story wrong from the get-go about the receiver of the photo being a "mistress". I could go on, but whatever... everyone wants high profile people to be caught in some kind of sex scandal so I can understand why you're willing to give a judgement of guilt already.![]()
I find his political outbursts annoying and I do think he seeks attention...
That's actually the original version of the same underwear shot. The tweet was a cropped version that was turned upside down. Frankly, it looks like a more impressive bulge in the original.Another pic got released. People say he's stuffing lol:
