MySpace Photos of Oregon Mayor Causing Stir in Arlington.

It is the "Home of the Honkers" and it is hard to miss the irony. A scantily clad image of the city of Arlington, Oregon's mayor is making the rounds on the Web today after news agencies lifted the image from her public MySpace page.

When Christians today sing “O little town of Bethlehem” they seldom think of the real city with the real people.
