    Texas Congressman Joe Barton apologizes for nude photo

    Texas Congressman Joe Barton apologized on Wednesday after a nude photo of him circulated on social media.Barton issued a statement saying that while separated from his second wife, prior to their divorce in 2015, he had sexual relationships "with other mature adult women." The 68-year-old Republican said each relationship was consensual and has since ended.


    "I am sorry I did not use better judgment during those days. I am sorry that I let my constituents down," Barton, the longest-serving member of Congress from Texas, said in a statement released to the media.

    His spokeswoman told The Dallas Morning News that Barton has no plans to step down.
    Barton, a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, announced his re-election bid this month. His district includes several counties in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

    Ah. He should learn to play the victim card better. It's all the rage these days.

    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    Ya' might want to get the above pic copied before it gets blocked again, while I'll figure a way to get it permanent.

    so, they "changed the user agreement for the hosting of images on third-party sites, and as a consequence truly
    may have "broken the Internet" . . . the service today hosts billions of photos.

    I sure agree about the "broken the Internet" part . . . if every photo ever posted to the host has the link broken now - I had no idea . . .

    Someday I'll figure out a new pic hosting site that works . . .
    but, not sure if that'd be before the next Congressman nude selfie, though.
