Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) promised that he would post a picture from his boyhood Bar Mitzvah when he hit 10,000 followers on Twitter. He made his goal last Thursday, Feb. 10, but followers are still waiting for the promised picture a week later.
According to Weiner, followers will have to wait for his mom to dig up the photo. Last Thursday, he tweeted, “My mom is looking for the pic.
Followers waiting impatiently to see a 13-year-old Weiner photo might excuse the congressman for spending long hours on the House floor participating in the continuing resolution debate.
As of Friday, Weiner has 10,820 followers.
From a previous YWN Story: In this video, Weiner’s mother tells YWN that she is unequivocally Jewish, which makes her son Halachically Jewish. Anthony is married to a Muslim woman, and is still proud to yell “Am Yisroel Chai” (Jewish Nation Live) on a megaphone at the Israeli Day Parade in Manhattan.
Curious Jewish observers would like to know, how does the “Jewish Nation Live” if our highest profile Jews intermarry?

Wouldn’t it be a shailoh since his Bar MItzvah was probably on Shabbos, meaning the photography was made on Shabbos?
A liberal Jew is a liberal first and perhaps a Jew second.
A shailoh of what?
Like, hello? The guy married a goy, what exactly are you expecting from him?
What exactly is your point?
Either this joins the ranks of BHO’s “birth certificates” or it takes time to Photoshop a non-existent dpcument. BTW: His mother is not a valid eid.
No. 1: Are you saying only frum Jews are Jewish?
