Politics and domestics, Sooner style

The following clip is quoted verbatim from "News Quirks," a collection of strange news stories compiled by Roland Sweet...
PICTURE THIS
The police chief, mayor, and a city councilman in Snyder, Oklahoma, resigned after the chief's 300-pound, tattooed wife posted nude photos of herself on a web site. Some of the pictures showed her with an American flag draped off her shoulder. Dozens of residents of the town of 1500 had demanded Police Chief Tod Ozmun's resignation, and the district attorney recommended an obscenity investigation, but the City Council decided that the pictures were protected by the First Amendment. Ozmun, Mayor Dale Moore and Councilman Clifford Barnard quit because they were fed up with the public attention and criticism of the chief.
The police chief defended his 43-year-old wife, Doris, saying, "People in this country do what she does on a daily basis." He added that he had long discussions with her about the photos but noted, "My wife is 6'3" and weighs 300 pounds. If there is somebody that thinks they can control her, have at it. I have tried for 11 yeas and haven't been able to."

Mmmmm-yeahhhh. There's a happy family. The man admits he tried to "control" his wife, and she looks for attention on the internet because apparently she's not getting it at home.

Guess we all know who wears the pants in that household.
Oh, no, wait. She doesn't.

"Dozens of people" in that city sure like their porn don't they? By calling and complaining about it...that just shows their own complete and utter lack of brains, not to mention their dirty little secret.
