Rep. Anthony Weiner Admits Deception

Statement Analysis gets to the truth.

First he denied, then he diverted, then he sought to blame a journalist and accuse the journalist of hacking his account.

He is someone who says voters should trust him, though his wife cannot, neither can the journalist he attempted to implicate in criminal activity of breaking into his account and stealing his identity.

 Statement Analysis showed that he was deceptive, and then body language analysis said he was deceptive. and now he says he was deceptive. Rep. Anthony Weiner now says he lied.

He cried to the media, said he is not resigning, and apologized to his wife.  He said this was an aberration from which he learned.

"I've never had sex outside my marriage" he said, abandoning his projected "deny and divert" defense policy that he employed after publicly calling out Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

He admitted lying and said he would accept responsibility.  What does that mean?  What will the acceptance of responsibility mean practically?

"I don't know the exact ages of the women but they were all adults and they were engaging in these conversations consensually" Weiner said. He released a statement which we will analyze.

"Look, I admitted I engaged in online conversations" he said in anger to the press.

He did not give the number of women he had online relationships with.

She was very unhappy; she was very disappointed, she told me as much" as to his wife.

Why did he come out now to admit?

"my primary concern was my concern about these relationships becoming public. By denying the original accusation led to tougher questions. "

He refused to answer the question as to having phone sex with various women:

Updated at 4:38 p.m.: When asked if he had phone sex with any of the six women, Weiner said that he would not answer because he wants to respect the privacy of the women. He said he has never had sex outside of his marriage.

Update at 4:35 p.m.: 
"I was embarassed and I didn't want this to lead to other embarassing things. It was a dumb thing to do to tell lies about it because it just led to more lies."

Update at 4:34 p.m.:

"The last thing on this day when I've done this harm to my wife and my family. is thinking of this or next year's election. The first thing I need to do is make sure this never happens again"

"I'm not blaming anyone. This is my own personal mistake. This is a deep weakness I have demonstrated and for this I apologize."

Updated at 4:32 p.m.: When asked if he would apologize to conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart, he said he is "first and foremost" sorry to his wife. He said the two have no plans to divorce. His wife did not appear at the press conference with him.
