Shamed Spanish politician poses nude for magazine to try to restore her reputation

A Spanish politician who feels she was wrongly fired by her party after it was revealed that she was claiming travel expenses for commuting from the United States to her job back in Spain wants people to know the naked truth … literally.

Carmen López, a 43-year old former beauty queen who became a lawyer and politician, appeared completely nude on the cover of a Spanish magazine this week in an effort to repair her reputation and tell her side of events.

López said she was forced to relocate to Chicago after her husband found a job as a professor after a stretch of being unemployed. She added that her party, Ciudadanos ("Citizens"), was fully aware of her plans to commute 4,000 or so miles from the Windy City to Seville to attend council meetings.

"I moved [to Chicago] out of absolute economic necessity ... My husband, who is a philologist, was out of work, and I had dedicated my time exclusively to the Ciudadanos party and to local politics – without receiving a penny for it and being supported by my parents," López, who appeared on over a dozen pages of racy photos in the latest edition of Interviú, told the magazine.

"Then after the elections, my husband was assigned a job as a teacher in Chicago through the Education Ministry," she explained.

López also said that her party leaked her expense claim to the media in order to force her out of her job. "I requested to use video conferencing, which is free, but it was denied. It left me no choice," she said, according to the English-language Spanish news outlet, The Local. "The trap was set, and I fell into it."

When the scandal broke, López was quickly asked to leave her post by Ciudadanos leadership as "serving the interests of a small town in Andalucia of about 17,000 inhabitants from over 6,000 kilometers away seems a bit difficult," a party spokesperson said.

López, the former Miss Seville, became Castilleja de la Cuesta's only councilor from the Ciudadanos party in May, when the centrist political party that started in Catalunia for the first time won a number of local and regional elections in other parts of the country.

López's sexy photo shoot isn't a first for politicians. Ciudadanos party founder, Albert Rivera, stripped off his clothes for posters during his first campaign for Parliament in 2006.

Rivera responded to the Interviú magazine cover with a comment on Twitter: "Mine used less Photoshop."

Earlier this year, the Party for Freedom – Clean Hands candidate for mayor in Portugalete in the Basque region of the country, Yolanda Couceiro Morín, also posed naked for campaign posters to dramatize the need for transparency in government. She lost to socialist incumbent, Mikel Torres.

They are not hung up on nudity as though it were evil but instead see nudity as a celebration of life and being comfortable with oneself. Americans tend to have a jaundiced view of the human form and cloak it with moral foolishness and double standards ...

* It is very nice to see more women getting into politics.

** If we all vote according to "hot bodies", Ms. Clinton could lose votes ;) . Eye Candy in American politics would get the voters "hot". Beauty and Brains would be nice. A future "Water-gate" would take place in the hot-tub. love

* A warm hello to SassyEuro2, flowerforyou

Shamed Spanish politician poses nude for magazine to try to restore her reputation

To me her picture on the cover looks weird.
Looks like her legs are super long and her arms would end just barely above the knee.
Almost like one of those "gray" aliens.

...Oh no.

They are among us!

slaphead Check ALL the definitions of 'perverse' & re-read the thread title & my post.

You are the one viewing the male & female political leaders as sexual...
I didn't. * But with that user name.. spock well, ya know *

What is perverse (& unique) imo, is that they (or Spain) thinks it 'saves' their political reputation or may get them votes, or that it is part of a competition, or makes them creditable.

Well Now... Getting down the bare nakedness of the story... chuckling all the way

So if in Spain you get naked and tell your story it is more believable?
Okay...
Hmmmm I am so glad our politicians here don't do that. That is some mental picture I am going to have to work on all day to get out of my head.

I read the title,

And my first thought was;

"OMG! Lawd Almighty,
please don't let it be Hilary Clinton.."

I exhaled a sigh of relief,
as I read the story.

:laughing:

Yeah, that's my thought too. Glad she's attractive enough to carry it off.

Conceptually of course, it's another variation on what our politicians all do. Get accused of screwing around on your wife? Go on a wife-hugging tour, showing her more ostentatious public affection than you've shown to anyone ever before in your life. Accused of being gay? Don't want to admit it? Have an affair with another woman, and make sure you get caught.

But no, please, don't make me go anywhere NEAR imagining this present day crop of....things, posing nude.
