Breitbart extorted Weiner (a U.S. Congressman) into giving him a public apology in the press conference OR ELSE he'd release the picture of Wiener's penis. If that apology (services) wasn't delivered, then Breitbart would reveal THE FULL ANTHONY.

Weiner did something much less worse than many of you stone throwers in your glass houses have done. (It isn't like the guy was fucking hookers, right?) He then went into full panic mode and bungled the cover-up by trying to lie and tell the truth at the same time. If he was a good liar, he would have known to deny EVERYTHING and then shut up about it. He was too truthful during the cover-up and all but gave himself away with words like "certitude".

Some were saying Rep. Weiner was damaging Breitbart's reputation. How the hell could one damage Breitbart's reputation? But I digress.
This is different than what we do, in that we are not Congressmen. At least I'm not, maybe KCBigPapa is, but most of us aren't. As such, Rep. Weiner wields considerable influence over appropriations, and more importantly, may be privy to national security secrets. Behavior like this, especially if he is dumb enough to get caught, makes him a prime target for some real extortion from some who may want more than an apology, they may want money or secrets. Then it becomes a HUGE problem. No pun intended.
So this needs to be investigated fully, and then Congress should decide what to do with him. He will never have the influence and trust he once had. Too bad. He probably could have been a Senator or even President. Again, even though I thoroughly disagree with his policies, I think it is terrible this happened to him. I thought he had more on the ball. Sorry, no pun intended there either.
