Ok, but he (?) suggested Mr. Weiner say “I didn’t take a picture of my junk”, which would not rule out the possibility of someone else doing it, unless Weiner has already said so? I’ll admit I’m not following this too closely.

Okay you’re right there would have been nothing wrong with his first sentence.

“Weiner screwed up. All he had to say was ” I didn’t take a picture of my junk and post it to my twitter acct.”

But then he adds

“For some reason he left open the possibility that it was his junk.”

Ignoring the obvious fact that the reason Weiner had to leave at least some possibility that it was his junk out there is because given Murphy’s law + the natural perversity of human beings + how powerful our technology is, there’s no way he can be 100% certain that it isn’t his junk, which should be obvious if you think things through.
