And would you say the same thing about Justin Trudeau, lobster? That he only got into office because he is drop dead gorgeous? I mean, look at your guy Trump's wife and daughter drooling over him.
It does work both ways, sometimes. Bush II got elected partly because he was more handsome than Kerry. Kerry was a pretty shitty candidate though, so that cannot be overlooked. Kerry was basically Biden 1.0. Trump is not "my guy." I just think he was a better option than Hillary.
The bottom line is, there's nothing wrong with stating AOC has a pretty face and a nice figure. Men look for women who are pretty, and most women like to seen as pretty. It's not complicated.
You said she only got to where she is because of her looks. That's very different than just saying she is attractive. Are you being dishonest or are you that stupid?
I'd like to see Lobbie address this as well. But he won't. Pussy.

If anyone was seriously upset about what I said, there are events you can attend to voice your concerns. Chiknbut will welcome you there in pink arms.
We all know that no one was really offended. Rather, people just pretend to be upset because they don't like that I'm often right about things.

Today In: Obviously, Hers Is Bigger Than Yours Lobster, "Conservative" Republicans, and Incels:
On Wednesday, a story from a conservative news outlet that shall not be named—nor linked to—attempted to manufacture outrage over Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s hair salon bill: There was a reported $80 cut, $180 for lowlights, and pure speculation about a $52 tip, for a grand total of approximately $312. The (pretty deluded) message? How dare a democratic socialist—and someone in the public eye whose appearance very much matters, for better or for worse—get a haircut at market price for a major metropolis?
Other publications have subsequently seized on the invented “controversy,” even if no one seems truly mad about it except for conservative talking heads. On the contrary, much of the outrage online seems to be on AOC’s behalf—that harping on her haircut is gendered (recall Mitt Romney’s comparably priced $70 cut back in 2011, or John Edwards’s $1,250 hair bills in 2007). But leaping to AOC’s defense can feel pretty senseless when, in fact, no one is better at crafting the perfect response to hypocrisy and nonsense than AOC herself.
In today’s edition of AOC supremely owning Twitter, the New York congresswoman noted that if you’re mad about her $80 haircut, which, by the way, she paid for herself, you’re bound to hate vice president Mike Pence’s $600,000 limo bill from his official visit to Ireland last month, which, according to Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, Pence billed to taxpayers. You know, the same who should be offended by AOC’s hair-care regimen. Citing State Department contracts, CREW writes that Pence racked up the steep bill because, despite meetings in Dublin, the VP elected to drive four hours away in order to stay at—imagine a patented Coleen Rooney ellipsis here—President Trump’s golf resort in Doonbeg...

This is the sort of shit our elected officials fill their day mucking around in rather than doing for the folks. Any wonder the folks hate the ruling class.

Your President sends 1,000 petty BS tweets a day and you have a problem with one petty response by AOC in response to thousands of Trump supporters attacking her for how much she spent on a hair cut.
Meanwhile you ignore, justify and defend the thousands of blatantly corrupt activities by your President.
This is the sort of shit Trump supporters fill their day with rather than admitting they are getting duped by a group of con men. Any wonder why some folks are mystified by Trump supporters.

Oh, and can you imagine how much taxpayers are paying to have our President rolled in Cheeto dust and to have that absurd comb over maintained?!?!

He didn't even say anything about trump. He made a reasonable complaint about nobody in particular.
Then you did the old "what about ism".
LOL. Deep breaths.

With DC mostly AWOL, it's good to have the "conservative" braintrust of Mich & Illi back together again.
Exciting to consider all we're about to learn from them!

What's a bigger problem, AOC paying $80 out of her own pocket for a haircut (I freaking wish my wife only spent $80 to do her hair) or the vice President billing the US taxpayer $600,000 for limo service on a trip because he chose to stay at a Trump hotel 4 HOURS from where the meetings that he was there for were happening?
Michael has been completely silent about Giuliani associates getting arrested, completely silent about them funneling hundreds of thousands dollars to GOP politicians and completely silent about them funneling illegal campaign contributions from Ukrainians to Trump.
But a tweet from AOC pointing out Pence fleecing US taxpayers to line Trump's pocket? He's all over that to tell us what a waste of taxpayer money THAT 5 seconds it took for her to type that post is. The absurd hypocrisy and blatant ignorance is mind boggling.

Dammit...I have been trying to get that song out of my head for 2 weeks.
BTW, I confess to having a serious crush on K Hanna back in the day.

That we agree on.
The main difference is I see it/am bothered by it on both sides and you only care if it's republicans.

Really? Because you seem to have only responded to my posts on the topic and it was just a whine about how aggressively I responded to Michhawk's ignorance.
