ARLINGTON, Ore. (AP) - Mayor Carmen Kontur-Gronquist's name is sure to be mentioned when Arlington holds its annual town meeting Wednesday.

Some of the mayor's roughly 500 constituents will want to know her views on the issues affecting the Eastern Oregon community; others will want to talk about her underwear.

The mayor's lingerie is a hot topic here, with some residents upset that she posted pictures of herself wearing only a black bra and panties on her MySpace page. She was on one of the town's fire engines.

Kontur-Gronquist's MySpace page is blocked to all but her friends, but the pictures were at one time available to all users. In an interview with the (Pendleton) East Oregonian, the mayor said she did nothing wrong and those who are offended need to get over it.

"I'm not going to change who I am," she said. "There's a lot of officials that have a personal life, and you have people in this community who have nothing better to do than scrape up stuff like this."

"It's a picture of her in bra and panties on a rural protection fire truck in a rural protection fire hall," Woods said. "This isn't the way we want our city to be portrayed."

[Beelzebud]

3. OMG put that woman in a burka!

[ingac70]

4. Oh, sexy....

You can see the outline of her implant under her skin.

[underpants]

5. She works out!!!

:P

[ingac70]

10. Obviously...

If she had more body fat, her implants wouldn't be as obvious.

:puke:

[RebelOne]

6. Meow!!! Want a saucer of milk?

I can't stand cattiness.

[redqueen]

16. "Cattiness"?

How is that remark "catty"?

[ingac70]

17. I reckon it could be construed as catty...

if the person making the accusation has implants.

[redqueen]

18. I do not think that word means what they think it means. (nt)

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

13. Why do women feel the need for implants?

The only ones I can understand having them are women who have had radical mastectomies.

[ingac70]

15. They think it is "hot"....

My cousin's wife bought her some titties and likes to stick them in every bodies face at family gatherings and rubs them incessantly.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

20. Not something I'd want to do

or have done for me, that's for sure.

[bemildred]

22. Same sort of reason guys obsess about their schlong.

Not that I think it's a good thing. I say play the cards you are dealt. Let people take you as you are, or not, as the case may be.

24. Because They Never Realize This Will Happen to Them

8. LOL... might bring in some tourism dollars (nt)

[dkofos]

9. So, that's a MILF.

[liberal N proud]

11. Far more risque places she could be posting

[Hardrada]

12. Where's the total picture? As an historian, I need a complete

overview of this situation for proper context. To paraphrase Ronnie Reagan, "Where's the rest of her?"

[bemildred]

14. WGAS?

Is she a good mayor?

[swag]

19. Arlington's a sweet little rest-stop on the way out east on I-84.

Lots of Columbia River windsurfers put off there.

I'm sure she's a windsurfer.

[derby378]

21. Maybe it's a statement on global warming?

The higher temperatures rise, the fewer clothes are needed. She's a defender of the environment!

:rofl:

[jmowreader]

23. Scrape up stuff?

She put the picture on MySpace. Did she think someone WASN'T going to find it? :eyesroll:

Now...if she'd get her hair out of her face and bring her left arm forward a bit so you can't see her armpit, it would be a hell of a lot better photo.

[madmom]

25. I suppose bikinis are also a no-no, fer crying out loud.
