US politician in urinal cake controversy‎

Pictures of a former Bonita Springs councilman are showing up in some very unusual public places and the story is generating a steady stream of controversy.

When you head to the restroom to do your business, you don't expect to see a face staring at you - especially one of a politician. "One of our regulars walked out and said, ‘Whose face am I peeing on?'" said Angela Johnson, a bartender at Lansdowne Street.



The face popping up on urinal pucks around Bonita Springs is that of fire commissioner candidate and former city councilman Pat McCourt.

A group called Citizens Against Destruction claimed responsibility for releasing the cakes into the public - naming the Lansdowne Street Pub and the Hickory Fishing Nook as two of many locations where people could "express their feelings about McCourt."

I dunno, I think it might be quite satisfying to pee on a politician's photo - especially if they're in a party in opposition to your own political feelings.
