Man Vs. Wild With “Bare” Grylls
By Wyatt Earp | June 29, 2009
What the Hell has happened to the Republicans? Have they all gone mad after two consecutive trouncings at the polls?
CLAYTON, Ga. — Naked time got a little out of hand for a former Gainesville mayor.
Authorities arrested Mark Musselwhite and charged him with public indecency last weekend after state Department of Natural Resources officers found him sitting nude at his Rabun County campsite.
In his defense, he was trying to start a fire by rubbing two . . . Oh, I’ve said too much.
Officers had received a complaint about a naked man walking along a nearby road earlier in the day, but the 43-year-old Musselwhite said he was not the same man.
Musselwhite, a Republican, was elected to the Gainesville City Council in 2000, where he served for six years, including a stint as mayor. He lost a bid for a state Senate seat in 2006. (H/T – FOXNews)
I have not spoken with Musselwhite, but I can guess what some of his excuses will be. To wit:
1. It was really, really, hot that day.
2. He was trying to put the “ass” back in grassroots organizations.
3. Musselwhite had to remove his clothes in order to “pitch his tent.”
Did I miss any? If so, add them in the comments section.

When his weekend warrior buddies suggested a commando type weekend in the woods, he simply misunderstood.

Maybe he was doing some advertising for his new breakfast cereal… “Nuts and Berries”.

He needed a chance to air his thoughts but aired his brain by accident.
There was this Argentinian bear and he fell in love with her smile and curves and the passion and oh, by the way, sorry for the humiliation, family.
He left his clothes bag in a Minneapolis airport bathroom stall.
He read that article last week about nudity helping to reduce global warming.
Alien abduction?
