Survey Says GOP
Women Are Prettier

Daily Beast, by Allison Yarrow

Original Article

They’re calling it the Michele Bachmann effect. And no, it’s not the Minnesota congresswoman’s crusade to ban falafel from public schools. It refers to the relationship between a woman’s politics and her face. Women politicians with “stereotypical feminine facial features” are more often Republicans, found researchers at UCLA]. And the more feminine their features, the more conservative their voting records. They also found the reverse—that women with more masculine facial features tended to be Democrats. Less gender-typical visages tracked with more liberal voting records. The correlation between face and party ideology was stronger for Republican women politicians than Democrats.

Comments:
A little light stuff for Sunday...

FTA:

Participants said ‘piercing eyes,’ blonde hair, and perceived plastic surgery seemed more Republican.

How do they explain Nancy Pelosi? She has the most perceived plastic surgery I've ever seen outside of those freak websites that feature the really bad stuff. And her eyes are rabid.

Yes, we are, thank you very much.

In other news, we know how to use shampoos, a comb and brush, and apply makeup.

We do have our shortcomings, we do not have a handle on the ammunition belt as fashion accessory. We wear sleeves as appropriate and seldom drop down and do pushups.

Is it the successful get first pick of the ladies or the pretty ladies get first pick of the men? Either way this survey should come as no surprise.

This is also the reason the population is slowly getting taller and blonder……chosen sooner, start breeding younger, more kids.

Conversely, when your prospective mate is decided by goat dowries, I can understand why some become angry with the world once the burqa is removed. Burqas prevent evolution.

Rush nailed it years ago when he said Feminism was established to allow unattractive women access to mainstream society. I only wish CNN and MSNBC hadn't taken it to the limit of a man's endurance.

#8, then think of the Republican ladies: Palin, Bachmann, Hayworth, Haley, Blackburn, Love, and the earlier leading ladies like Elizabeth Dole, the soon-to-retire Kay Bailey Hutchinson, Christie Whitman, even the late Millicent Fenwick, who was a Republican, albeit a progressive one.

I take the use of the phrase "dog whistle" during the campaign has to do with making sure dems keep their females from straying?

#19, Bravo! Well said. I have to comment about conservative women, they really are the cream of the crop, hands down. The rugerman's Mrs. is a hard core conservative and after all these many years together, whether she's in an evening gown or decked out in full camo with her deer rifle,,,still a knock out. I'm a blessed man. God bless our precious conservative ladies.

So that's where the name "Daily Beast" comes from! Why didn't I see that before?

I guess,when your baseline includes Rosie, Waters, Candy Crowley, Napolitano, Pelosi, Helen Thomas, Hillary, and the other Leftist dolls being mentioned, it's like conservatives are running the Indy 500 with a 499-mile head-start.

FTA: " ..dowdy suits, a serious gaze and close-cropped bobs read Democrat. Democrats interviewed said politicians who looked trustworthy or professional were Democrats, like themselves."

Yet more symbolism over substance. Dem women (both politicians and voters) are almost uniformly dummies. So I guess they figure the only way they can pretend to be smart is to look like the stereotypical librarian before the transformation, LOL!!

I find it interesting that the Democrats being interviewed would overlook the feminine attractiveness and focus on pearls or dental work, assuming as given that the Republicans are the 'party of the rich'...

If you recall seeing Caroline Heldman from Occidental College on Fox News, you may remember her as a liberal with patently ridiculous arguments. At first glance, she is stunningly beautiful, but when you listen to the dopey stuff that comes out of that beautiful face, she starts to look hideously ugly.

Girls often sense at an early age whether they are attractive to the opposite sex. Those who are not will be more likely to see themselves as disrespected and less likely to be protected by males in general. A powerful government becomes the substitute dependable partner.

Mrs. Holliday is also proof positive. I am a lucky man.

And this survey is actually true. I am not saying that we have a lock on all the good looking ones (the knockout Hollywood nitwit bimbos) but the left has a lock on the absolutely dog-ugly ones....Helen Thomas wodd scare s**t off a shovel for instance. Someone mentioned Bella Abzug who belonged in a haunted house right next to Pelosi. If Nancy has one more facelift she will have a goatee.

#12 does "moderately attractive" also mean "moderately ugly"?

Well, if this isn't the Duh of the Day.

BTW, speaking of political women, esp. unattractive Dem women, what in the world has happened to Debbie Wasserman-Shultz? Somebody, put her face on a milk carton, please! Her absence may explain Obama's slowly rising poll numbers prior to his debate performance.

#34, the mention of Helen Thomas reminds me of what a funny L-dotter once said about her: "she'd back a hungry hound dog off a meat truck." Can't remember who said it, but it was a classic.

A Central Florida man who was shot and killed by an FBI agent early Wednesday morning was being investigated by the FBI and Massachusetts authorities in connection with the Boston Marathon bombings. The FBI told the Orlando Sentinel that during the early morning hours Wednesday, an FBI agent — along with two Massachusetts State Police troopers and other law enforcement personnel — were interviewing 27-year-old Ibragim Todashev in connection with the Boston Marathon bombing investigation when a violent confrontation was initiated by Todashev.

Biden Praises Jews, Goes Too Far,

Joe Biden spoke last night in honor of Jewish American Heritage Month. Biden has long, deep ties to the Jewish community — Obama actually picked him in 2008 in part to reassure skittish Jewish Democrats. Biden indeed offered fulsome, heartfelt praise in his remarks, before wandering into highly uncomfortable terrain and delivering a speech that is likely to be quoted by anti-Semites for years and decades to come. (It’s already the subject of excited discussion among the white supremacist community.)

Grief and politics don´t mix. When raw, aching grief and the dirtiest kind of politics meet, a hot volcano of pain and outrage erupts that is unstoppable. But it is necessary.(Snip)before Benghazi, there was Extortion 17, the call sign of a special operations mission in Afghanistan on Aug. 6, 2011. Three months after the strike on Osama bin Laden, 30 Americans -- including 15 from the bin Laden strike-team unit, Navy SEAL Team 6, and two other SEALs -- were killed in the costliest single-day loss for the U.S. military in the Afghanistan war, and the largest SEAL loss

A faulty steering apparatus may bring an early end to NASA’s Kepler space telescope, a $600 million tool in the space agency’s quest for life elsewhere in the universe. Kepler is the first NASA mission capable of finding Earth-size planets in or near the habitable zone, the range of distance from a star where the surface temperature of an orbiting planet might be suitable for liquid water. Launched in 2009, it has discovered thousands of such planets, including a pair just 1,200 light years away.(Snip) But yesterday, Kepler’s mission ran into trouble.

The IRS´s Nonprofit Helper
Wall Street Journal, by James Taranto    Original Article
Posted By: SoCalGal- 5/14/2013 4:10:56 PM     Post Reply
The Internal Revenue Service last year supplied a left-leaning nonprofit charity with confidential information about conservative organizations, which the charity disseminated to the public, ProPublica reported yesterday. The charity in question was ProPublica itself. We should acknowledge that "left-leaning" is our characterization; ProPublica describes itself in its own tax filings as "entirely non-partisan and non-ideological." ProPublica is legally obliged to be nonpartisan, for it enjoys tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, which means that contributions to it are tax-deductible.

If it is proven that the IRS thwarted some groups from obtaining tax-exempt status in fear that their traditional or conservative messages might hurt the 2012 Obama campaign (especially if it did so under pressure from White House-affiliated operatives), and if it is proven that the Obama administration deliberately ignored warnings about lax security at the Benghazi consulate, missed real opportunities to send help, or deliberately massaged intelligence reports in order to mislead the pre-election public about the true nature of Benghazi in order to further a false campaign narrative of a near dormant al-Qaeda

IS CONSERVATIVE THE new radical? The fashion world certainly seems to think so. This season, designers filled their runways with restrained silhouettes that echo the graceful, showing-less-is-more aesthetic of generations past. Designers are reimagining soignée staples for spring and summer—skirt suits, twin sets, below-the-knee dresses, kitten heels and frame bags—that appear anything but moth-eaten. In fact, fashion´s neoconservative coup d´état feels deliciously defiant, given the excessively revealing styles pop culture celebrates. A quick flip through any supermarket tabloid yields an

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner, whose career in public life came to an abrupt end when he sent lewd pictures to a college student on Twitter, jumped back into politics on Wednesday by announcing a bid for mayor of New York City. “Look, I’ve made some big mistakes and I know I’ve let a lot of people down,” the Democrat said in a 2-minute video announcing his bid. “But I’ve also learned some tough lessons. I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy.

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.
