Drudge finally shows interest in the Weiner.

Let's check out the display. Closeup:



The links are:
IT MIGHT BE MY WEINER...

'This Could Be The End For Him'... — the quote is something some "political consultant" said.

'I was a little bit stiff yesterday' — this is something Weiner himself actually said, intentionally making a penis joke!

'Have You Ever Taken A Picture Like This Of Yourself?'...

HUMA STAYS QUIET...

Done in by the social network...

Probe could give Weiner more headaches...
A longer view:



Is the proximity of the hog an intentional juxtaposition?

Yes.

The wurst is yet to come.

Drudge finally shows interest in the Weiner.

Speaking of double entendres...

traditionalguy said...

Oh no! Titus will see that Hog for what it is. Chip can do one of his magic pics of Weiner's gray undies suddenly removed showing the Hog's snout taking its place. By now the selfless Weiner Man has resumed his career as a Twitter version of Dr Phil to the Porn Stars.

Triangle Man said...

The blog CannonFire claims to have found a way that a photo could have been uploaded to Weiner's yfrog account without his knowledge.

Chip S. said...

I suspect Rosemary Woods.

Fred4Pres said...

Weiner is a pig and wieners are generally made of pig. Except for Hebrew National wieners, of course, but I am pretty sure Weiner is not kosher in all of this.

Chip S. said...

I believe that hog would have to be cut in order to make a proper wiener.

LordSomber said...

I don't keep up with sexual scandals, so I don't know dick.

MayBee said...

TriangleMan- what CannonFire has found is akin to using Weiner's password to post on his feed without him knowing.
It is a hacking/prank theory like any other, but proves nothing.

edutcher said...

Drudge clearly wanted this thing to grow legs.

I note he's following Huma, too.

Lessee, Sausage marries Hillary's rumored lady love in a ceremony "officiated" (whatever the Hell that means) by the Former Serial Rapist in Chief.

Yeah, there's a match made in Heaven.

Titus said...

I learned the word "hog" from my first boyfriend in Boston. He had a wicked Boston accent and reminding me of some hood in a South Boston movie.

He was really hot and very bad. When he first used the word I had no idea what he was talking about but I eventually got it and thought it was so appropriate.

I, in turn, decided to bring it to the masses here at Althouse.

And you are welcome.

Chip S. said...

The real question is who uploaded the all the stupid into Weiner's brain just before he started talking to the media.

Retired Prosecutor said...

"Wife Remains Mum." Perhaps Huma should seek the counsel and consolation of her mentor and boss, the Secretary of State. I suspect Hillary could lead a seminar on the subject of being married to a cheating louse.

Col Mustard said...

Weiner's wiener story is baloney

Triangle Man said...

@MayBee

No password is required. What he describes is yfrog's insecure method of accepting emailed photos to an account. All that is needed is the @yfrog.com email address.

Of course, this wouldn't explain Weiner's reaction. Something is wrong there.

Titus said...

He will make a perfect mayor for NYC, unless that dyke gets it.

Rialby said...

Why did it take Drudge so long??

Titus said...

This entire episode is overshadowing everything and everyone, even Sarah.

How weird yet kind of hot.

Christy said...

Drudge rules.

Althouse, did you see the pics of Mrs. Weiner's
wedding dress
? Stunning! Designed by Oscar de la Renta to show off a jeweled choker she inherited from her grandmother.

Didn't Obama's refusal to discuss his birth certificate teach us that lack of denial isn't agreement?

Fred4Pres said...

Col Mustard, very nice.

Hagar said...

Is the hubbub over Congressman Whiner's wiener a still more unconventional way of campaigning for mayor of New York?

Fred4Pres said...

Titus, everyone loves a wiener joke. To a point.

I did not care for the Hangover 2. It was one limp wiener joke after another and it got boring. I did like Bridesmaids, however, Ms. Witt does an excellent portrayal of one in the movie.

Fred4Pres said...

Ms. Wiig. My bad. Jeez, I am definitely not spelling bee material.

Chip S. said...

Hagar, I think you're onto something. In fact, it looks like there's already a campaign video.

MayBee said...

All that is needed is the @yfrog.com email address.

Yeah, but knowing the very random yfrog email is akin to knowing a password.

Carl Vero said...

“No we're not the jet set
We're the old Chevrolet set
Our steak and martinis
Is draft beer with weiners”
Congressman, please depict your beer next time.

Chuck66 said...

Back when Cindy Sheehan was still loved by the left and dispised by the right, she got herself arrested in front of the White House. Drudge shows a picture of her being carried away, feet first, with the headling "Cunning Stunt".

That was no accident.

Fred4Pres said...

Pig shooting?

When Alaska was shooting wolves, Sarah Palin was vilified for it. But it is okay for Team Obama to shoot hogs.

Fred4Pres said...

Women are complex creatures, and Bridesmaids presents the reality of female friendship with a level of seriousness and due care that is all the more affecting for being so rare. Whether they're imitating an over-eager penis or nursing each other through emotional storms and squalls, Annie and Lillian's friendship is presented in all its spiky, tender, complicated glory.

Methadras said...

One of these pigs is not like the other.

Jason said...

Let's take a closer look at that hog.

Methadras said...

So where are you now Jay Retard? You claimed Drudge had this story up and then pulled it down. Now what? He has them up again? I proved you a liar.

Bruce Hayden said...

When Alaska was shooting wolves, Sarah Palin was vilified for it. But it is okay for Team Obama to shoot hogs.

On the one hand, excess wild hogs probably are more of an environmental problem these days than excess wild wolves. They are smart and prolific.

On the other hand, because the wolves are so closely related to man's best friends (close enough that they can still interbreed), we have a soft spot in our heart for wolves. Contrast that with hogs, who have been food for us for millenia.

I go both ways on hunting wolves in the lower 48. There are problems with them that the environmentalists refuse to acknowledge. For one thing, it appears that at least some of the wolves we now have in the lower 48 are bigger and run in bigger packs than did the wolves that we killed off. This results in them taking down larger prey, including some of our food supply.

Of course, the solution to this whole mess would be to reintroduce wolves into the areas where there are feral pigs and hogs, and let them duke it out. There are problems with that solution, but it would be humorous to watch...

Carol_Herman said...

Give Drudge a break! I'd bet he took the Memorial Day Weekend off. "Skeleton Staff" doesn't change the appearance of his headlines. And, when he got back, he took care of the omission.

Everyone's jumped on this guy's penis, by now!

As this is an entertaining story. And, one, also that belongs to the Internet.

What's the shelf life?

Pretty long, would be my guess.

Why didn't he say right off that he had taken the picture to send to his wife. And, he got flummoxed.

Carol_Herman said...

But why has no one asked Weiner if he recognizes the hairless skinny legs?

It's one thing to send up a "photo chop" ... quite another to get the legs just right.

I'm 72, and I've never heard a penis called a "hog." Schmuck, yes. And, putz. Weiner's a putz.

This story has "shelf life."

If Weiner doesn't quit? He can run on the slogan that Weiner is Frank.

YoungHegelian said...

I haven't seen anyone comment (except me, right now) that Weiner's taste in chicks seem to run the ethnic gamut with the major, blaring exception of female members of the Tribe.

I'm amazed the NYC yentas haven't tried to finish the job the mohel started.

That man's a schanda, I tell ya!

Methadras said...

Carol_Herman said...

I'm 72, and I've never heard a penis called a "hog."


That's because you aren't a fag nor Titus.

Methadras said...

Correction:

One of these hogs is not like the other.

Methadras said...

Hey, here's another theory. What if the hacker/prankster is really his wife and he's trying to protect her?

Alex said...

We already know too much about this dude's schmekis.

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

Why did it take Drudge so long??

Maybe Drudge wanted first to find out if there were any hog pictures of his own wiener floating out there ;)

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

Probe could give Weiner more headaches...

That's what I call subtlety.

BJM said...

Buhwahahahaha!

Dustin said...

"No password is required. What he describes is yfrog's insecure method of accepting emailed photos to an account. All that is needed is the @yfrog.com email address."

The email address is the password.

It's impossible to guess.

No one has shown its existence is public. No one has shown they can use this method to get Breitbart's twitter or whatever.

Fred4Pres said...

If Anthony Weiner's wiener was a broadway musical...

Fred4Pres said...

Talking about Broadway musicals, I did this part of the Book of Mormon (the musical not the actual book). Sums up Africa pretty well.

Fred4Pres said...

I dig, not I did. My bad.

ricpic said...

What a bitter pill this has to be for Huma, the consummate careerist, who calculated the next step strategic marriage would be a giant step up that turned out to be a misstep.

David said...

The hog will become 10,000 wieners. Just you wait.

David said...

"I'm 72, and I've never heard a penis called a "hog."

You are kidding?

You must have had very polite brothers and boyfriends.

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

The hog pic at Drudge is now closer to the Weiner.

William said...

It's almost impossible to write about the Weiner scandal without including a few double entendres......I live in NYC. The elected officials in the various chambers more closely resemble the secure ward of a hospital for the criminally insane than they do of a deliberative body. Weiner is far from the the most unsavoury pubic figure here. I predict that this will not a be a career ending scandal. He probably won't run for mayor, but he will easily get re elected. The pursuit of nookie is not a hanging offense for Democrats. The only unforgivable sexual sin is opposition to gay marriage.

el polacko said...

well..what a coinky-dink ! hillary came out today to announce that google has revealed info that china is HACKING the accounts of american politicians...and she's not gonna stand for it! what are the odds of that timing?

Anonymous said...

The other shoe is starting to drop. Internal anonymous sources close to the Democrat Rep. Anthony Weiner say he now admits to a history of sending lewd pictures of his penis to young girls.

These sources are thus far refusing to comment for the record, or allow their names to be used ... but they are characterized as having spoken with the Democrat privately.
Weiner has admitted to them, they say that he has in the past sent these types of lewd pictures to young girls.

Politico: "Two people who spoke to him privately said he had suggested that, as one said, “he took or sent a photo or photos like this at some point — but in this case actually was hacked/set up, perhaps with a posting of one of his own photos or something very similar.”
