Plausible Denial

"I can't say for certain it hadda be
A shot of my private anatomy,
As it's not ev'ryday
I confront in this way
A depiction of this or of that o' me."

If, as was recently the case for Rep. Anthony Weiner (Dem., NY), you should find that a photo of a male member (perhaps of the House of Representatives, perhaps not) had issued forth from your Twitter account and caromed around the internet and the mainstream media, the only logical response is a sincere profession of ignorance. After all, no-one can say from the evidence whether the man behind the photo is standing for Congress; and of course, all men are endowed by their Creator with the inalienable right to a presumption of innocence.

  2. YOU ARE WHAT YOU TWEET

    Rep. Weiner’s considered a grandstanding ham.
    He thought himself sexy, this fine-lady’s man.
    But he can’t pass the buck
    for that stroke of bad luck
    that sent out porky beef cake as spam.
