You can't really have elections in New Zealand without this kind of shit happening.
Get your fill of sci-fi, science, and mockery of stupid ideas

Brash bans talk of testicles
15 September 2005
National Party leader Don Brash has given his besieged Tauranga candidate Bob Clarkson a bollocking and suggested the subject of testicles be dropped from the election campaign.
A testy Dr Brash was forced into damage control yesterday over the sexual harassment claims against Mr Clarkson, sparked by his penchant for using his private parts in conversation and for placing bets.
When asked if he would prefer that Mr Clarkson refrained from discussing the subject, Dr Brash said: "I don't want any candidates talking about their testicles, to be quite frank."
Mr Clarkson, described by National as a "rough diamond" possessing an "earthy" sense of humour, yesterday dropped threats to sue over the matter. The harassment allegations, raised by NZ First leader Winston Peters, have added extra spice to the two Tauranga candidates' sole head-to-head campaign debate in the city tonight.
