TORONTO - 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, Ont., according to Sakach.
"He is pretty upset and embarrassed," Sakach said of a photo that was posted on Lepp's account Sunday. "It was removed as soon as it came to his attention."
QMI Agency obtained grainy copies of the Twitter page images before they were removed.
The pictures - too graphic to reproduce - are of a man naked from the waist down, showing a close up of his penis and his crossed legs.
Sakach said the device was operating on camera mode in his front pant pocket when it went missing. He added that Lepp suspects it was taken as he was jostled by protestors outside the Dixon Rd. convention centre where the Tories met for the party's weekend convention.
Sakash said he didn't know if police were called about the stolen BlackBerry.
"It was an unfortunate circumstance," Sakach said Sunday. "This is pretty low and juvenile, and we don't believe it is politically motivated."

That’s incredibly implausible.
Very difficult to believe.
It seems there are an unusual number of flashers in politics. I guess it gives them a thrill.
Well it is one the wiener could use

Har dee har har, CNNews
Clad or not clad, male or female, pretty much any picture of a politician is a picture of a putz.
No kidding! Even if he was wearing very loose pants, with a hugh hole in the pocket, and no underwear, it would be DARK.
What is *wrong* with these people? Newsflash, guys ... nobody who has ever changed a diaper wants to see your dinglebob. That’s why we have a switch to turn out the lights.
It is sometimes very funny (and revealing), when they show us how stupid they really think we are. The bigger joke will be how many libs defend this.
That's an understatement.
I am not sure I understand the explanation.
First I heard of this kind of thing was with the Bret Favre pics. It doesn’t seem to be restricted to politicians.
While he was getting jostled by protesters???? Was he standing there with his legs crossed? Did he have to make a pee-pee?? Also, was he “going commando” that day? And wouldn’t it be super dark inside his pants?
TO MEN EVERYWHERE: Stop taking pictures of your junk!!! Unless you wish to attract gay men, no one else wants to see your naughty bits!!!!!
My penis has a first name, its Oscar,
My penis has a second name, its......
“dinglebob”
Lol! Chalk this up as a nickname I have never heard for a penis. Lol again!
LOL! Yeah, it was pretty desperate.
Who the heck knew that we had all these flashers in politics?
FWIW, I read an analysis of flashers many years ago that said that many of them are impotent in the act itself or are in circumstances that make them feel impotent, and thus rely on flashing views of their little buddy when it wakes up from time to time. They honestly think women are going to be impressed by this.
Yuck!
Wait a minute. Why was this guy running around with a picture of his privates? The “phone in the front pocket” doesn’t answer the question. This guy is plain weird.
Yeah, what I just said! Someone on another thread said it best - paraphrasing here:
Penises are like squid. They might be wonderful when ready and well-prepared, but no one wants to see pictures of them on the menu.
Wish I could give credit to the person who said it.
His explanation seems to be for how the picture got onto Twitter and not for how or why it came to be. The picture was on his Blackberry when it 'went missing,' i.e., was stolen from his pocket.
What a cockamamie story.
I’m missing something. Are they saying the photo was taken by the blackbery while in his pocket or that the blackberry was taken from his pocket and a photo was taken by someone else and posted using his blackberry??
