Mr. Lepp's Penis

(Warning!  Graphic image below!)

You know, you get emails sometimes.  And late today I got one with this attached:

...purporting to show the penis of PCPO candidate for Niagara-on-the-Lake George Lepp.  I thought, yeah right.  Considering the proximity to this incident, which also involved twitter and yfrog, I figured that at most people might have figured out how to hack these social networking services and post naughty pictures from the accounts of political candidates.

But tonight I see this:

Rookie PC candidate George Lepp says he’s embarrassed that a photo of his family jewels was posted on his campaign twitter account for about 20 minutes before it was quickly unzipped.

Alan Sakach, communications director for the Ontario Conservatives, said the photo was inadvertently taken by Lepp’s BlackBerry when it was in his front pocket. The photo was posted after someone took it from the candidate for the riding of Niagara Falls, according to Sakach.

I don't want to spend too much time on the likeliness of Mr. Lepp's account.  I would just point out that, however strange it might seem, the alternative is considerably worse.  Back in my day, the best "fun" you could have at Conservative conventions was when they buried the live chickens in sand, and everyone got drunk on rot-gut and tried to shoot their heads off.  If Mr. Lepp is not being honest here, then believe it or not the Tories have learned how to throw a better party.
