http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/07/24/swedish-lawmaker-accidentally-posts-penis-picture-on-instagram/A Swedish lawmaker was caught with his pants down Wednesday after flashing his private parts in a picture meant to show off his newly-inked Liverpool football club tattoo.
A picture of former Left Party leader Lars Ohlys tattoo inspired by the Premier League teams Liver Bird emblem was deleted by the politician after his followers on the photo-sharing network Instagram pointed out that they could also see his penis.
Ha, ha, I accidentally posted a picture on Instagram that showed more than intended. Now corrected, Ohly wrote on Twitter.

Congratulations to you, after all these years, for getting this genuinely public breakthrough! conservative Foreign Minister Carl Bildt, a political opponent, tweeted.

A little different perspective and response, n'est-ce pas?

it sounds like the only "accidental" was that it showed more than he meant; he wasn't deliberately posting an image of his unit and setting it public instead of private (unlike ex-Congressman Punchline).
