Weiner's Paranoid Twitter mystery man fears pol's "Clinton connections"
In response to a TSG e-mail sent yesterday to his Yahoo account seeking an interview, Wolfe only wrote, “Who gave you this email address? Private.” Wolfe did not respond to several subsequent e-mails sent to him.

Wolfe’s reticence apparently has been triggered by the fallout from a May 27 tweet emanating from Weiner’s account that was sent to a 21-year-old college student in Washington State (that tweet included a link to a now-infamous underwear photo). The Weiner tweet and the accompanying photo was spotted late Friday night by Wolfe, who tipped Big Government, the conservative blog run by Andrew Breitbart.

For months, Wolfe and several Twitter sidekicks have excoriated Weiner, 46, in the harshest terms. They have criticized his looks, claimed his marriage is a sham, and accused his wife of having ties to al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood. On May 5, Wolfe floated a rumor that compromising photos of a “big time” congressman were in the hands of a “top 5 Right Wing blogger.” He tweeted, “@RepWeiner are you this Congressman?” He reprised this photo rumor in a May 11 tweet.

1. This guy is a real scumbag
Hiding out because he fears his ex-wife and ex-girlfriend will rake his ass over the coals on this. Makes one wonder if Breitbart didn't offer payment of some sort that he's trying to hide?

3. Check this out
Is this the picture? It looks like a microphone hoax. What do you think?

4. Now that you mention it... That may well be the answer to a question I never asked.

5. First time I've seen it.
It doesn't look real to me, either. Also, too, and...that underwear doesn't seem like it would be his style. The leg looks like that of a teenager. I like Anthony, but he's no kid.

The microphone theory looks plausible. I do see a "seam" or strip around that area.

I do know one thing for sure, I hope to hell it isn't his pic because I had it blown up about 1000 times on my screen and my face was about an inch from the monitor (really bad eyes). Again...I like Anthony, but I don't wanna be that close and personal with his genitalia.
