Andrew Breitbart's "Big Government" website has published a racy photo that it claims was Tweeted by New York Representative Anthony Weiner to an unnamed recipient.

Weiner has claimed that his Facebook account was hacked and that, while the photo did appear on his Twitter feed, he did not send it. The photo shows a man's erect penis outlined in a pair of tight boxer briefs. Today, Breitbart has been taunting Weiner via Twitter, claiming that he has "much more" scandalous material to reveal.

The story was published late Friday night/Saturday morning by an anonymous contributor to "Big Government", under the byline "Publius". Breitbart's media enterprises have had serious credibility issues in the past, including questions surrounding the ACORN "sting" carried out by conservative prankster James O'Keefe and the selective editing of a speech by former USDA official Shirley Sherrod.

4. Hey when is our side going to start doing this to breitbart?

Get him back! Taste of his own medicine. See how he likes it. Keep him busy. Make HIM deny it.

It just really galls me! We all sit here, on the Dem side, and the attacks keep coming and we keep fulminating about how horrible it is, and then this bastard targets somebody else. And then somebody else. And he keeps coming and keeps targeting and keeps hitting, and in some cases keeps drawing blood. And all any of our people do is wring their hands and complain and deny it's them and shake their heads about how terrible it is.

WHY DON'T WE EVER STRIKE BACK????????

WHY DON'T WE TURN HIS TACTICS ON HIM, FOR A CHANGE???????

SURELY there's GOTTA be some nasty shit in his closet that could be spread all over the place to further trash him! Doesn't ANYBODY on our side do oppositional research?

Sheesh. Sometimes it almost seems as though to be on our side is to walk around with a proverbial "Kick Me" sign on our backs - with the subtitle - "Don't worry, you'll be fine - we won't kick back!"

Seems to me this shit keeps happening because there are no consequences for those doing it. There's NO deterrent. They have no fear that if they stomp on their victim's head, that head won't be full of poison-tipped fangs pointed upward. There's NOTHING to be lost for them doing this. No down side, no consequences, no penalties, no pain.

That just CANNOT continue!!! Maybe if a schmuck like this realizes that pulling something like this is gonna hurt like hell, he may have second thoughts about doing it in the first place. There HAS to be a heavy price to pay for doing this shit, aside from the thought that, well, MAYBE somebody MIGHT call a press conference and huff and puff and deny, or issue some Strongly-Worded-Letter (!) and MAYBE they'll sue but in reality, they probably won't, and really, nobody's gonna do anything so hey - every man for himself! It's full speed ahead.

There should be a HUGE price to pay for people like breitbart pulling shit like this. And there is NONE. Which, in effect, is nothing but a green light to continue pulling shit like this. It's like he's begging for it with his "well, who's gonna stop me?" attitude. And nobody seems to want to try to stop him.

Doing shit like this needs to hurt. It needs to be painful, a huge hassle, and horribly expensive.
