I have not spent a whole lot of time following the "ups and downs" of Weinergate because from the initial facts I am fairly certain Anthony Weiner is guilty. Since the breaking of the story Weiner has done little to convince me (or many Americans for that matter) of his innocence.
Yesterday's disastrous CNN interview did a whole lot more damage than good.
If that wasn't bad enough, Weiner's inability to identify a photo of his own junk pretty much confirms his guilt.
Seriously? How can he not know if the picture is of him or not? Unless he his taking or allowing others to take endless pictures of his junk, he should be able to tell if it is him or not.
Lefty bloggers are fighting hard to save their Weiner. They even came up with a possible way a hack could be performed. However, Gateway Pundit has shown how even that hack requires prior authorization.
The bottom line is Anthony Weiner is trying to have it both ways. He knows he got caught out there Tweeting his junk to a young girl on Twitter. In his panic he reached for the easiest excuse at hand; he was hacked.
Unfortunately, Weiner forgot about the status of his job and thus did not think about the seriousness of what a hack would mean. So now he is caught between a rock and a hard place. Fess up and he will be a known liar and a cheat. Push forward with the hack excuse and he could risk committing a crime. So, Weiner tries for a third option: admit nothing and hope the whole mess dies of old age.
There is little hope that Weiner will be successful in having the whole thing go away. The media, bias as they are, loves a good sex scandal. The only way they will drop this "bone" is if a mega story breaks out. If I were Weiner I would be praying that Palin's bus tour ends with her making the big announcement, otherwise his goose is pretty much cooked.
For those of you who really want to follow this story closely, check out The Other McCain, he is all over Weinergate.
