<snip>The Pool Pals lined up a nice group of dignitaries to be dunked. But when word got out that one dunkee might wear a George W. Bush mask, the politics hit the fan.

<snip>''This attempt at humor has no place in today's environment,'' harrumphed a Lehighton Times News editorial.

<snip>A day later, with the world watching, the Carbon County commissioners voted to oppose dunking Bush as well.
