Rep. Kevin Yoder stripped naked before jumping into the Sea of Galilee after dining and drinking at a waterside restaurant in the town of Tiberias, Politico reported, citing more than a dozen sources, including eyewitnesses. Other participants, including the daughter of another congressman, swam fully clothed, while some lawmakers partially disrobed, Politico reported.

Did somebody in Israel take offense?

So a bunch of guys got drunk and did something mildly stupid. Big whoop.

I suppose since any nudity is lewd in the US....

Your right...in my state any form of nudity exposing geneitalia is considered indecent exposure.

While I suppose its a good idea to not have people just walking around nude...as a rule...it does seem rather odd how scandalized some people get over nudity. We all have the same basic equipment in one form or another.

I don't know why this is a big deal. Maybe a bit embarrassing if the other Senators were taking pictures :) I do have to say, being a senator has some nice perks. Wish someone would send me on one of these fact finding missions. Of course, with my luck I'd get sent to Somalia or someplace like it.

It's a shame that simply swimming in the nude is considered lewd. I went skinny dipping with a group of friends many years ago and it was quite a liberating experience. Also, it should be known that Lake Michigan can get pretty chilly! :uhyeah:
