WASHINGTON - The identity of another of Rep. Anthony Weiner’s social media sexting partners is emerging, but this time, by accident.
Lisa Weiss, Ginger Lee, and Megan Broussard were all too eager to provide the details, whether through photos or Facebook-strains of their online affairs with Weiner; and Gennette Cordova, the 21-year-old from Washington who received the tweet that touched off this whole scandal had no choice.
But if it were up to Traci Nobles of Athens, Ga., her contact with Weiner would have stayed a secret.
“I really regret that this was sent to you,” Nobles told the Las Vegas Sun, after confirming that an unnamed roommate went into her Facebook account, which had been inadvertently left open, and emailed the Sun a screen shot of a private conversation between Weiner and Nobles that appears to date from August. “She thought someone should know,” Nobles said.
Given the extent of the congressman’s flirtatious speech and physical details that have been made public, there’s little from the brief excerpt of the Nobles-Weiner conversation that could shock us. The bit of the conversation that was made available to the Sun shows the two exchanging terms of endearment such as “sexy” and “sugar” and arranging some sort of meeting for the next day — although it’s not clear from what’s presented whether it’s a meeting that was to take place online or in person.
Calls placed to Weiner's various offices were unsuccessful: Each was met with a busy signal, or answered by a voice mailbox that was full. An email sent to a Weiner spokesman asking for confirmation of the congressman's involvement with Nobles was not immediately returned.
Nobles, who will be 35 this month, works in physical education and health fitness promotion for elementary and middle schools and is a self-proclaimed liberal on Facebook.
Despite her reticence to reveal her private contact with Weiner, she’s not been shy about sharing her affection for the congressman publicly in the past.
She’s posted suggestive messages on his public campaign site several times, requesting right after the midterm elections to sit in Weiner’s lap, with an accompanying phallic joke, and encouraging him on more than one occasion to conduct his official business — especially if it would be broadcast on television — in the buff.
Nobles wouldn’t share any more of the exchange she had with Weiner after several requests. She and Weiner are Facebook friends.
Nobles is the fifth woman revealed to have been carrying on online contact with Weiner, who said in a news conference Monday that he had maintained such relationships with six women over the past three years, adding that he had never met any of them in the flesh.
The House Ethics Committee is expected to subpoena testimony and records from the women involved as they move forward with an examination of whether to charge Weiner with official wrongdoing. House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi requested the investigation Monday afternoon, shortly after Weiner concluded his news conference; few Democrats since have defended him, and several Republicans, and some Democrats, have been calling for his resignation.







The press isn't going to let this story go. It is only getting worse. He really should resign. We have far more important things to consider and this story only gets in the way.
I would just like to say you shouldn't be publishing this person's name or picture and bringing a private person into this public and political scandal. Especially if she is a local person you are intruding on her life and privacy, compounding the intrusion of her so called friend who compromised her Facebook correspondence. Even if other papers have no scruples and can't help but blather whatever they learn, it would be nice if one newspaper said no and did the right thing for a change. Her name and picture are none of our business.
I'll bet the FBI has Facebook on digital storage in a basement somewhere.
With women all over the country, think this man needs a weiner mobile to get around in... you just know from the second they say "I'm innocent, my account was hacked,: they be guilty as sin...
Karma has got the best of Mr. Weiner. I do agree that this story is getting old but he should just step down and save us all alot of money and aggravation. If Pelosi is true to form she will do an ethics investigation, drawn out for weeks, and again hold the taxpayers hostage. She did it with the tax cheat Rangle and she'll do it again. Problem is we all lose in he end.
Leave this guy alone, he can keep his job. I have an idea, how about those scuzzy broads who were texting him resign from their jobs. Get a life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If a CEO of a USA company did this, would they get fired by the Corporate Board?
Weiner was trying to make political hay out of being a Guardian of Internet Morality. Another hypocrite, like Ensign, show him the gate.
Apparently, New Yorker's do not want their Rep to step down...
http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/belt...
He's their guy...up to them.
Sexting might be TITILLATING...
But it ain't too bright.
Brett Favre; same New York state of mind.
"I'll show you mine if you show me yours"...
It's like grade school with these guys.
"My NAME is Weiner! You think THAT'S funny? Get a load of this!"
A serial Weiner-wagger...
If he goes into therapy, I will barf.
He doesn't need therapy, he needs to grow up.
I'm not sure how I feel about him having to be terminated or to self terminate i.e., resign.
But one thing I do know for certain, what a dummy. There is no privacy on facebook or twitter especially if you are on there as yourself and especially if you are a known public figure. How else could he have expected all this to turn out?
For godsakes, set-up a fake profile and photo using an assumed name or alias on some adult oriented websites if this is your thing.
And even then I am sure he would have been busted. When you are a politician there will always be opponents from both within your own party and especially from the opposing party looking for ways to discredit you and get you out of the way.
And sometimes too the same applies to even more of the common man.
@cibolojack..Good observation about the wienermobile.
I feel sorry for the wife. She is married to that pervy little guy and now they are expecting.If it were me, I would dump him. That whole scene would be way too weird for me. He likes to get his freak on and needs to be single ala Tiger Woods.
Tune into tonight to hear Bill O'Reilly talk to Dick Morris about sexual texting and the like...the experts on this topic???

Dear Ms. Pelosi,
Thank you for your announcement of investigation into Weinergate scandal by the United States Congress.
At the same time, please check the computers and telephone logs of all of the politicians, including congressmen and senators. You will be surprised to find out that Mr. Weiner is not the ONLY one who has done what he did.
It will be appropriate to get rid of all of them, who are guilty of doing t the same things that Mr. Weiner did and have a clean house and senate all over once again and for good.
Wishing you good luck in this venture and many more to come, God willing.
May God Almighty help all of us, Amen.
The House Ethics Committee isn't going to do much to Weiner the wennie wagger because he has the ethics of the dummycrat party.
Truth is starting to emerge. Congressman Anthony Weiner is the victim here. Those women, no longer vestal virgins, are pro. They are the ones who breached the terms of privacy expected of those who are into this Facebook thing. Why did Weiner send them the photo of his penis? Did they ask for it? If they were decent women, no man in his right mind would ever expose himself. Breitbart became a party of this blackmail. And the press. They are jumping ship because it is becoming obvious that the Messiah they had been waiting for turned out to be fake.
Voters, beware! The DemocRATS are feeding Congressman Weiner to the limp wrist media by throwing him under the bus and abandoning him. If they can betray their own kind, they can do this to you and me. Let us vote these scoundrels out of office. Weiner is being discriminated against because he is only a Jew. How about Barney Frank whose male lover ran a male prostitution ring? How about Walters and Rangels who practiced graft and corruption? How about Gates who allowed the gays to join the military? How about the entire DemocRATs members of Congress and Senate who turned our country into a Third World nation?
What a jerk Wiener is as a man and as a politician. His big ego nailed him and now he has to pay the piper! Too bad for his wife who has to go cry on Hillary's shoulders. Can you imagine that conversation! As for the women, they are just as dumb and stupid. Did they think they were that good as to attract the attention of a married congressman? If you have BF's I hope they either dump you or trick you out to some other scumbag!
I can't imagine being a public figure whose profession depends largely upon image and perception, and engaging in something like this. Public forums like Facebook and Twitter have brought down many a man (and even a government in Egypt). Why risk it? Sooner or later someone will find out (whether it is a reporter or someone looking to cash in or get publicity), and you have left a trail of documentation. Pretty hard to deny what you have left in print and digital images.
This absolute loser is so "ripped" but is such a tiny guy. cant even fill out a suit. WTf weiner you are an idiot. loser loser loser. wow he is in shape? really? time to pound the creatine powder assssssss/ my wife could take him cor crying out loud
I think Congressman Weenie represents the Democrat party perfectly. You had Barney Frank with a male house of prostitution for queers operating out of his home in DC. You had Ted Kennedy who killed a young girl when he left her to drown in his car after his night of drinking. You had Clinton getting "serviced" by a young lady on the government payroll. You have Sen. Charles Schumer praising Congressman Weenie for his work ethics. You have Sen. Reid (NV) selling property that does not belong to him. You had JFK having an affair with a Nazi spy in DC during WWII. So what is wrong with having a Congressman spending all day on his federally owned computer sending naked pictures of himself around the country. You don't really think the Democrats have any ethics do you??
It's best that this all came out. People who are as stupid as Wiener apparently is, should not be representing the people.
Corrupt perverted politicians, yet another violation of our rights. Add it to the list of gov't violations of our rights:
They violate the 1st Amendment by placing protesters in cages, banning books like "America Deceived II" and censoring the internet.
They violate the 2nd Amendment by confiscating guns.
They violate the 4th and 5th Amendment by molesting airline passengers.
They violate the entire Constitution by starting undeclared wars for foreign countries.
Impeach Obama, vote for Ron Paul.

I think calling for his resignation is a joke. If he does, then lets make every politician that has flirted on or offline, or, outright cheated on their spouse, leave office. That way we'll start over with a 95% NEW congress.
These women he was involved with must have seen some kind of fame and/or fortune in him because he certainly doesn't have any looks. It seems all we can come up with lately - both Dems. and Repubs. are these scumbags - is this really the best this Country can come up with - egad - I sure hope not.
It was Stupid! If this is the new standard for resignation though, let's put David Vitter at the Head If The Line, He had Actual Sex with a Hooker supplied by the DC Madam and then Paraded his Wife out to admit it, all the while running on his Holier Than Though Stick. Wieners Voters in His District (if he has one left after redistricting) will decide.
mred - "Tune into tonight to hear Bill O'Reilly talk to Dick Morris about sexual texting and the like...the experts on this topic???"
Bwaahaha .. the pot and the kettle.
LOL... Weinermobile.... LOL
@Freddie - if, at you put it, those "scuzzy broads" were on the public dole - then YES - they should go if they're being paid with taxpayer dollars. As for the 'scuzzy broads'.. well the only thing scuzzier than looking at the pictures is POSING for them. Now THAT, my friend, is SCUZZY!
I really fail to understand what women find so sexy about this guy. I guess that some women really are just attracted to power. And that, in a nutshell, most likely explains why a little toad like Weiner actually got into politics in the first place. Let's face it, if he was an insurance claims adjuster, no attractive woman would give him the time of day. He was probably shot down repeatedly by girls during his school years, so now he just can't help but use his power and influence to attract all of those women that he could never get before. Being married to a beautiful woman doesn't seem to be enough.
The man needs psychiatric help! Not only do his actions betray a childish insecurity, they show a woeful lack of judgment, and a blithe disregard for basic ethics. But, just like his house colleague Charles Rangel, Weiner's constituents are typical left-wing New York zombies who would vote for Beelzebub, as long as he had a (D) in front of his name. We should start expecting more form our elected officials, regardless of party.
Mr Wiener needs to resign maybe Oscar Meyer Corp needs someone to drive the wiener mobile this summer
The Henderson resident who works at Belligio-was told by her Boss to stay home for 1 week is hiding in her home worried about losing her job.
I guess the paid interviews were worth it
This guy is a pervert....
he is not worthy of being a congressman.
He needs psychiatric help; he needs to commit himself.
He is unlikely to be a worthwhile part of American society again with out help from others.
He is a creep - and women should detest him.
How about the truth. I dated Traci Nobles for the last two or three months. First and foremost SHE SENT THE FILE. THERE WAS NO ROOMMATE. She told me that right after she showed me the article. It is a bunch of lies that she will tell the press, she has no emotion, almost that of a sociopath. She left her husband to come down to see me. Then she told her husband (Norman) that she had been unfaithful. She moved in with a friend of hers in Madison, and came down every other week, telling me she loved me, and deeply cared about me. I knew nothing of the scandal, Then when this hit we had been doing great. Yesterday she completely talked to me like a piece of trash, and told THAT I WAS BEING SELFISH.(Boy that's the pot calling the kettle black.) I spent all night trying to get in touch with her, and she has just ignored me, and in a round about way that she was not seeing me any longer" I have the truth about Traci Nobles.I know the truth, and I have other things that can back my story. So she deserves what she gets for sure. It's women like her, (also men) that have NO HEART . That dosen't care what they do to other people, and hurt others with no sense of apology, or remorse.that make this country bad. She was a follower of Weiner, now she is lying , and sending him up the river.. GIVE ME A BREAK.
The guy is a snake. But this woman is a snake as well. Traci is a who-e who is trying to start something with this guy who is married. Traci, the gal Edwards poked, Monica, they are all trash.
He's a democrat, what do you expect?
These are the leaders we want our children to look at as icons of American values and judgment?
Whatever party you are affiliated with, how can anyone not think this bozo should quit, go hide and not come out of his house for about two years....
Is this Congressman still in the House? He should have been booted a week ago and we would have forgotten his name by now.
Mr Chair, I would like to introduce a new amendment to our ethics regulations:
AB145: If you text your meat, you lose your seat.
