Sure there have been exceptions: St. Ronald Reagan photo-oping himself as the Marlboro Man out on his California ranch; Dubya photo-oping himself riding around in his pick up truck, wearing a t-shirt, jeans and cowboy hat &#8216;clearing brush&#8217; (because that&#8217;s what all manly men like to do on their vacations); and of course Spiff Romney photo-oping, wearing his blue denim button down shirt with the top button opened up just enough so we can see the top of his t-shirt (or it might have been his magic, Mormon undergarment). It&#8217;s no secret that many religious conservatives (not only christians) are repressed about sex and about their bodies. Some can&#8217;t even say the words penis or vagina without turning fifteen shades of crimson. Some even cover themselves up at all times&#8230;even in the hot tub???<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a photo-toon from our April 11, 2004 issue just after Condoleezza Rice bamboozled the 9\/11 commission, showing what kind of wanton antics happen when conservatives get their phreak on.
