Rep. Anthony Weiner: 'The Picture Was of Me and I Sent It'

Weiner, still arrogant in confession to sexting and phone sex with half dozen women. He won’t resign

In a performance worthy of the combined talents of Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, and Dustin Hoffman, married New York congressional Democrat, Anthony “I got hacked” Weiner, confessed to everything concerning the details surrounding Weinergate.

For the past 11 days, the tattered web of lies he tried to continue to spin began to wrap itself around his neck as more and more evidence came to light that he lied about sending a crotch shot of himself to a Seattle coed half his age.

But, like the late-night infomercial says, “But, wait there’s more…”

ABC News

Rep. Anthony Weiner of New York said today he has engaged in "several inappropriate" electronic relationships with six women over three years, and that he publicly lied about a photo of himself sent over Twitter to a college student in Seattle over a week ago.
"I take full responsibility for my actions," Weiner said. "The picture was of me, and I sent it."

The announcement came as ABC News prepared to release an interview with Meagan Broussard, a 26-year-old single mother from Texas who provided dozens of photos, emails, Facebook messages and cell phone call logs that she says chronicle a sexually-charged electronic relationship with Weiner that rapidly-evolved for more than a month, starting on April 20, 2011.

ABC News reached out to Weiner earlier today for comment about his possible ties to Broussard, but he did not respond to requests for an interview. At a press conference later, Weiner confirmed Broussard was one of the women with whom he sexted.

Broussard's story had threatened to expose the secret online life of one of the House Democrats' most popular members, and a man many considered a leading candidate for mayor of New York City.

It also raised new questions about Weiner's explanation for how a photo of a man's groin area ended up on his public Twitter feed on May 27. Today the congressman said he accidentally sent the image to a woman, Gennette Cordova, who was following him on Twitter, as a joke.
