The Breast… uh, Best… of 'Chicago Republicans'
Publius Forum ^ | 04/08/10 | Warner Todd Huston

A tempest in a tea pot has roared into Chicago and this time it edges toward the risque. Riling the tongue cluckers is a website called Chicago Republicans which featured a post that ostensibly was to be about taking John Edwards and Bill Clinton to task for their exploitation of women. But the text of the post isn't what is raising eyebrows. The photo accompanying the blog post shows some very healthy… er… lungs, if you will, of a very pretty woman.

The post titled The Female Century vs The Hetaerae Century & The John Edwards "Affair" features an artsy photo by Russian photographer Vyacheslav Potemkin of nude model Natasha Volkova and has tongues wagging all across the nets tonight. The post was written by Lumi Boldovici a Romanian immigrant and blogger at the Chicago Republicans site.

Sadly, many of the sites posting stories about this incident are tsk tsking "the Chicago Republicans" for featuring the nudie shot and claiming that the "Chicago GOP" should be ashamed of itself. The problem is that the site featuring the nude photo is NOT a "Chicago Republican" site. The blog is operated by Tom Swiss but this site has no connection to the party itself and is operated as a group blog. Granted Swiss is the political director of the Chicago GOP but his site is not paid for by the party nor is it run by the party. It is Mr. Swiss' own privately funded and operated site...

I am starting to think a lot of people think the GOP will be better without the social conservatives. That is a huge portion of the party base and I doubt many liberals are going to come over.

Many Illinois Republicans seem to be a liberal as the Dems. Which is probably why the Dems win everything.

That's the fault of the IRCC. They're every bit as corrupt as the Dems. Once the Tea Parties get done with them they'll be gone.

Republican Potemkin nudes? Is there some kind of weird hidden meaning here?

Not even remotely guilty.

Would have to be caught in the act with full video and audio and a signed confession...

... and even then, not guilty.

In that second one, she can be forgiven. She has a blindfold on so she didn’t notice the clothing malfunction.

That quarter was redesigned in the first year of issue because it was deemed “obscene” because of the bared breast. Today it would be deemed “politically incorrect” because it depicts a glorified image of liberty.

I think it says “trvst.” Must be a Norwegian saying, or something.
