Paula Jones, Katherine Harris, Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin and, most recently, Miss California, Carrie Prejean, have all come under a frenzy of attacks from liberals. Christians are supposed to be fat, balding sweaty little men with bad complexions. It's liberals who are supposed to be the sexy ones.

Most people do not even pay any attention to such a phenomenon nowadays. Some other women believe that they have to remove the lower part of their bathing suit too, although in this case they need to find a nude beach. Sunbathing nude obviously has its advantages. It gives a beautiful tan with no stripes of white skin on the body, whereas the body does not suffer from synthetic fabric. However, wearing Eve’s or Adam’s costume has its downside too. “Sunbathing for a long time can be harmful....
