Bob Dole's Chores?

A magazine article discussed the marriage of former Senator Bob Dole and his wife Elizabeth. The spread contained a photo of the Senator helping his wife make their bed. One incensed male reader wrote Dole "an irate letter complaining that I should never allow a picture to be taken of a man doing such things around the house."

Senator Dole says, "I wrote him back: 'Buddy, you don't know the half of it. The only reason she was helping me was because the photographer was there.'"
