Congratulations! You've been nominated for Understatement of the Year!Craig it was a FAKE document.
The only thing accurate is that the secretary said that the guy who supposedly wrote it MIGHT have said something like that.
By the same token I could produce a memo which states that Ted Kennedy was a drunk and claim that JFK wrote it to which everyone would say "well Ted was a drunk so maybe JFK did write the memo"
You have such a screwed up view of reality.
As amusing as this is, it doesn't add that much to the narrative. Everyone who isn't an idiot (i.e. everyone who was not a Wiener supporter prior to this) already knew from his carefully if ineptly parsed statements that the picture was his. Therefore it logically follows (albeit with a very slight chance of error) that he was sending out provocative pictures, most likely for the purpose of soliciting extra-marital sex. However, all of this may have come to the public's attention due to a hack, probably a Palin hack (password guess.) Now that a woman is coming forward, I'd guess that either she did not want the attention and only now thinks people will believe her, or that this is a setup by whomever hacked his account. Either way, it just shows that he should have owned up and gotten out in front of this from day one.The plot thickens......

Weinergate Bombshell: New Woman Comes Forward Claiming Cache of Intimate Photos and Online Communications with Beleaguered Congressman
A new woman has come forward with what she claims are photographs, chats, and emails with Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY). These appear to undermine severely Rep. Weiners explanations that he was the victim of a prank or a hack.
The detailed new information suggests that the Brooklyn- and Queens-based representative and the young woman in question were involved in an online, consensual relationship involving the mutual exchange of intimate photographs.
BigGovernment.com and BigJournalism.com were approached regarding this information more than a week prior to the separate, independent event of Friday, May 27, 2011, when a link to the now-infamous gray underwear photograph appeared publicly on Rep. Weiners Twitter feed.
We will be updating BigGovernment.com and BigJournalism.com throughout the day with photographs, timelines, and other clarifying details. However, we will not be releasing all of the material because some of it is of an extreme, graphic nature.

Anthony Weiner's wiener
Just saw a story posted on a few different sites discussing a breaking story about Congressman Anthony Wiener and a possible Facebook account hack. As the details emerge it appears to be a legit story though the original story was posted Anonymously and carried by a Breitbart entity.

Pick your appropriate partisan source for your news.
At least it was a hot college girl he sent his wiener pic to :thumbsup:
1. If the pictures I saw were her she was far from a "hot college girl".
2. In my first year of marriage I wasn't corresponding with college girls, hot or not hot let alone sending them pictures of myself in various stages of undress.
Thanks! We can always count on you to go the extra mile to make sure no one could ever take you seriously. Not many people could combine Republican conspiracy AND fake but accurate. Your hat must be made from that industrial strength tin foil.You have it pretty much completely wrong, as usual.
First, it was not a "fake document". You have no evidence proving it was, all the evidence says otherwise. The question is, was it a REPRODUCTION or an original.
The evidence on that is mixed. While bloggers who of course you believe without a doubt say it was, the million dollar investigation that was biased for the right - co-led by a Republican, and harshly attacking some of the practices of the staff on the story - concluded that IT could not be certain whether the document was a reproduction or not. They found nothing showing it to be a 'fake' - saying anything false.
You are not honest about what the secretary said. First, the document isn't something just 'made up' - there really was such a document, which she saw and knew her boss's opinions on. Second, as I recall her comments, she said the document accurately reflected his views - nothing 'might have said something like that' as you misrepresent.
The main question now is, was this a Republican sting, if the document was a reproduction? It fits things they've done before, Rove operations (and before that, the general sort of thing Nixon's dirty tricks people did. For example, when an attempted assassin shot George Wallace, the dirty tricks team tried to enter his apartment to plant George McGovern campaign material to make him look like a McGovern supporter.)
The document has mysterious origins consistent with such a scheme.
But the bottom line - reproduction or not, scheme or not - is that the document was believable enough for a major investigation to not be able to say for sure whether it was a reproduction, that the reporters got it from a source who could have had access to it, a source who, not wanting to disclose the mysterious origins how he got it, lied to the CBS team at first - and a document with information that was confirmed as accurate on investigation, the officer's secretary saying it reflected his views.
All OTHER evidence, which is not in question, also supports the same information as in the document.
Your argument is like finding one photo or report about the moon landing that MIGHT be a reproduction, possibly from moon landing deniers, and saying it puts the moon landing in doubt.

Supposedly Wiener is giving a press conference at 4:00. No mention of whether he'll provide pictures . . .
In the most hilarious turn, Andrew Breitbart just happened by, Wiener is late, and Breitbart is actually giving the press conference instead of Wiener. You literally cannot make up this shit!
