The John Locke foundation is a known conservative blog site. The president of the foundation John Hood addressed the situation stating that the illustration was offensive and he had it moved immediately. Loop21.com reports:

A blogger for the conservative North Carolina thinktank The John Locke Foundation has resigned from her position after she created and posted a picture of President Obama in S&M chains and eating fried chicken on their website.

“Meck Deck” blogger Tara Servatius, who hosted a talk show on WBT-AM (1110) until May 2011, wrote a story about the marriage amendment and attached a picture of Obama in high heels.

The photo was removed from the blog posting after the controversy began.
