Update: June 7, 2011 - There has been a call for an investigation to see if he improperly used funds while up to these shenanigans. Many in the US House of Representatives want him to resign.
Update: June 6, 2011 - Weiner admitted he has inappropriate internet relationships with several women. He even held a press conference about it! He has admitted having “inappropriate” and “explicit” online “conversations” with six women.
What he really did wrong is lie about it. He flat out denied it, blamed it on a hacker.
Will we see him run for president?!
Original article from May 31, 2011:
Rep. Anthony Weiner has been accused of sending a lewd photo from his Twitter account to a 21-year old college student. Supposedly the picture was of a man's nether region, wearing boxer shorts. He of course denies the allegation, saying his Twitter account was hacked. I think we'll never know the real story.
Now for the embarrassing part. I BET A LOT OF PEOPLE HAD THE SAME THOUGHT! BE HONEST!
I must be up front - I am addicted to spell checking. Many people are. You had the same thought too.
You are thinking, "His name is Weiner, you mean like a hot dog?" He is being accused of that and his name is what?
But alas, no. Not like a hot dog. I had to look it up on Google. The food item is spelled wiener (blush!). Remember the "i" before "e" rule? I remembered it, but second guessed myself, maybe it was one of those words that breaks the rule? But no, it is wiener.
No hate comments, please. I know a lot of people have the last name Weiner. But a lot of people also have the last name Wiener. Now we are all clear on the spelling?
Wiener is German for Viennese, or a German sausage named after Vienna. Wiener is not used in this context in Vienna.
