That’s Rep. Anthony Weiner’s (D., N.Y.) defense for why he has not requested a police investigation into the alleged hacking of his Twitter account. Fox News’ Bret Baier told Weiner in an interview on Wednesday that it takes just “one call to the FBI,” who could then “within five minutes” determine the IP address from which the photo was sent and conclusively confirm or deny Weiner’s allegation of hacking. But the embattled Congressman apparently isn’t in any rush to publicly exonerate himself. “I’m just a citizen,” Weiner said. “I don’t think this is a federal case, I don’t think this is the second rising of bin Laden.”
(beginning at the 2:50 mark)
By "citizen" he means "gigolo."
Bozy bozy bop...

Reply to this commentLinkReport AbuseSince he's a Congressman, why would the FBI wait to be asked? Isn't this, to some degree (if his excuses were true) a question of national security?
Weiner is a citizen, but a public citizen as well.
Reply to this commentLinkReport AbuseHow many days into this and not one aspect of it has been blamed on Dick Cheney. Could we at least get a "warrantless wiretaps" reference for old times sake?

But wait, isn't this distracting him, a humble servant of the people, from important business of the Congress. I mean, we've a massive deficit, two wars and a kinetic operation going on, an economy in collapse, all while this "hack" is being a distraction does that no warrant making a federal case out of it?

Amusing catchpa "Full Monty" Even your software's making jokes!
Reply to this commentLinkReport AbuseAs a "citizen", he could ask the wonks at Twitter to look into it for him, and give him a report on just what happened, second by second...just sayin'...
Reply to this commentLinkReport AbuseActually, I think it is a federal case - that's what cybercrimes like this are, federal cases. That's why one reports them to the FBI.
And why does something have to be the "second rising of bin Laden" to be reported to authorities? If I see a suspicious charge on my credit card it's not the "second rising of bin Laden" but I still call the credit card company and report the item and ask them to investigate the charge. If someone picks my pocket it's not the "second rising of bin Laden" either, but I still report the theft to the cops.
