Pressure is mounting on Congressman¹ Anthony Weiner to answer two questions about that lewd² photo that was posted on his Twitter account.

How hot is it getting? Listen.

How about you do the questions, I do the answers, and this jackass interrupts me? How about that as the new rule of the game?

Let's go back and catch you up on this story. On Friday night, a picture of a man in his underwear briefly³ showed up on Weiner's Twitter account. The lewd tweet was supposedly intended for a 21-year-old woman's site.

That woman, a college student, told the "New York Daily News" that, yes, Weiner followed her on Twitter but the lewd post did not come from the congressman but from somebody who has harassed⁴ her before.

On Monday, Weiner blamed the photo on a hacker⁵. On Tuesday, CNN's Dana Bash asked him, if.. well, that was true, why not go to the police?

You're here, which we appreciate, but you're not answering the questions. Can you just say why you haven't asked law enforcement to investigate what you are alleging⁶ is a crime?

You know, Dana, if I was giving a speech to 45,000 people, and someone in the back of the room threw a pie or yelled out an insult, would I spend the next two hours responding to that? No. I would get back .. I would get back ..This is not that situation. This is not that situation.

I would get back..well, why don't you do? Do you want to do the briefing?

You're.. you've sent..Do you want to do the briefing, sir?

from your Twitter account.. a lewd photograph was sent to a college student.

Sir, sir.

Answer the question. Was it from you or not?

Sir, permit me. Do you guys want me to finish my answer?

Yes, this answer. Did you send it or not?

If I were giving a speech to 45,000 people and someone in the back threw a pie or yelled out an insult, I would not spend the next two hours of my speech responding to that pie or that insult.

But you are the one who said that you were hacked⁷.

I am.. Dana, let me..That you were hacked. And that's a criminal.. potential criminal offense⁸.

Dana, let me.. I'm going to have to ask that we follow some rules here. And one of those is you ask questions, I do the answer. That seems reasonable?

I'd love to get an answer.

That would be reasonable.
