1. Could you post a pic of yourself after a hard days work?

[dsc]

2. Would we dare make this kind of comment about a man?

[bigdarryl]

5. I was just posting a pic of how much makeup can change a womans appearance ...

it's nothing to be ashame of

[DURHAM D]

13. See response #11 below. n/t

[liberalnurse]

15. You apparently resemble

Pinocchio..................And I'm not refering to your Johnson.

[mtnsnake]

16. Makeup? It's not just that. Take a pic of yourself w/a strong light from the side &

see how you look, BigD, when you've got strong shadows highlighting any imperfections you might have.

Shit, even I can't pass the light from the right test and come out looking perfect! :evilgrin:

[Buck Laser]

17. I can't believe you'd overlook the msg to comment on looks...

She simply looks like a hard-working person. I carry no particular brief for Senator Clinton, but I do think stooping to comment on her appearance is about as snarky as can be.

[TankLV]

36. snarky and low...

but them some people have an agenda that is all too obvious...

we don't need the repukes to fight with - we have our very own circular firing squad that has reported for duty...

[AlCzervik]

52. yah. thats the ticket.

:sarcasm:

[countingbluecars]

3. She looks just fine to me. eom

[TankLV]

37. me too...

[Frank Cannon]

51. She looks just fine. I don't get it.

Is she supposed to look like a Bratz doll or something? :shrug:

[Catchawave]

4. Horrible angle and lighting.......

not even a supermodel would pass that test.

[mtnsnake]

12. Exactly. The light is coming directly fromt the right, casting shadows

on every little bump and wrinkle, and she still looks alright.

[NYCGirl]

6. What a steaming pile of shit post. NT

[Dawgs]

7. I don't have a problem with the post.

She doesn't look good in that picture. Would you deny that?

[NYCGirl]

8. She looks fine. NT

[DURHAM D]

11. What a surprise - Saturday morning and the

little men are on the internet. Go chop down a tree if you want to feel manly.

[Benhurst]

20. I do. She looks fine. I'm tired of all the 40 going on 85 facelifted

types.

While I may disagree with her on many issues (she's too DLC/pro-business for me), I think she looks fine. Distinguished, in fact.

On edit: ABC News has just reported Senator Clinton has said from Iraq that it is time to redeploy the troops home.

Go, Hillary! :bounce:

[CarolNYC]

45. Yep, I agree...

I think she looks fine...and distinguished.

[TomInTib]

27. I will look for your reply on the next Condi or Pickles post

Come on, now.

[NYCGirl]

42. Their looks don't matter either. NT

[Debi]

9. I wonder what this has to do with her ability to lead??? n/t

[Warren Stupidity]

10. eh?

First, why on earth is Senator Clinton's 'without makeup' appearance of interest? I am interested in her response to Dumbass's speech, I am not interested in how she looks.

Second, she looks fine to me as a woman in her late 50's who looks like a woman in her late 50s. Is she supposed to look 20? I find the botox and surgery and collogen disasters that the hollywood women in their 50's and beyond have done to themselves idiotic and grotesque. People who are comfortable with themselves and their age are far more attractive to me than those who desperately try to look like something that they cannot possibly be. I'll choose Meryl Streep over Melanie Griffith any day.

[Skittles]

34. thanks, Warren

I'm struck by how often I look at a Hollywood gal and instead of thinking she looks good, I'm thinking gawd why is she still trying to look like she's in her 20's? People lose the character in their face when they cannot smile or make a decent expression.....I'll take my wrinkles any day over a permanent look of surprise.

[Warren Stupidity]

47. Wrinkled and proud.

Us wrinkled folks have to stick together.

[xultar]

14. DU's. Most. Sexist. Igorant. ASSED. Post. EVER!

[liberalnurse]

22. This poster is one I will be

playing close attention to...............:argh:

[TomInTib]

30. Have you ever seen any of the Laura or Condi pic posts here?

and was your response the same as it was to this one?

Just wondering

[beyurslf]

18. Why is that important?

[shireen]

19. Hillary is beautiful

the face lines that women develop as they age make them look more compellingly attractive. It shows wisdom, maturity, and character.

Yesterday, I told a friend i was 42 years old. She looked at me and said: you look younger, I thought you were in your 30s! Most women would have been flattered by that remark. I was not ... I really want face lines! :)

[mzteris]

21. Senator Clinton's views on Iraq - ignored in this post -

WOW - what a surprise....

Because after all, it's much more important what she LOOKS LIKE than what she's thinking. She's only a woman.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

23. Why is this an issue?

Why should women "have" to wear makeup, "have" to "look young", "have" to have children (now I'm thinking of the repuke reaction to Boxer's remarks to Rice)? Isn't this buying into a sexual stereotype? I'm more interested in what she DOES than how she LOOKS.

[mtnsnake]

24. haha, BigD's taking heavies & some of DU's finest feminists havent even seen the thread yet

Wait until Morgana gets her eyes on your post. :evilgrin:

:popcorn:

[fairfaxvadem]

25. that's an unusual shot of her

I've seen her 3 times in the past year, not from a distance but within 2 feet, and she doesn't look like that in person at all, or in most of her photographs. She's a lot more petite than she seems on tv or in photos, and she's always so well put together.

But to the substance of what she said, I'm glad she spoke out in this way. Ambitions or no, I don't think Hillary joins any choir of opinion until she is damn good and ready. And obviously, she is ready now.

[mtnsnake]

28. "She's a lot more petite than she seems on tv"

That's what surprised me so much a few years ago when my wife and I went to hear her speak in our area. She was so petite. She was also radiating in personality and looks when you got up close to her. After her talk, she stayed so everyone could come up and meet her if they wanted. Nice lady and way more personable than what people give her credit for.

[Ninja Jordan]

26. I've question the OP's motives for a while now.

Freeperish

[ruggerson]

44. You and me both n/t

[MaryBear]

29. WOW is right, if you are not interested in her ideas.

She looks thoughtful, caring, and attractive.

I love the overall response to this original message to date.

[GCP]

31. That's what an intelligent hard-working woman looks like

It's beneath you to comment on her looks when she's trying to do a good job for her country.
I wonder what you would have said about Golda Meir?

[TankLV]

32. I wish I looked THAT good some mornings/days...

we should all be so "lucky"...

now, as to your agenda for posting this crap...

[aquart]

33. Why am I not surprised? This is a post I expect in the Other Place.

Hillary isn't 21 and she's not trying to be.

[Missy M]

35. I think she looks good and remember she is 60 years old....

with no face lifts. She always looks good. She does look very tired in that photo. She is also being honest about the situation in Iraq.

[medeak]

38. how refreshing compared to botoxed stepford pickles n/t

[DU9598]

39. She is reading the Iraq Study Group Report

I don't care what she looks like, I like the looks of what she is reading. Too bad the dim son couldn't read a book.

Beautiful, distinguished woman and a beautiful soul.

[Blue_In_AK]

40. She looks fine to me. n/t

[Cocoa]

41. she looks fine, and looks like she IS wearing makeup.

[ruggerson]

43. This is a very fucked up misogynist OP

not funny in the least, this kind of humor goes over with Freepers, not here.

[AlCzervik]

46. And your point is?

[senseandsensibility]

50. exactly

The OP obviously isn't impressed with hillary's looks "without make-up". but he doesn't want to come out and say so. That must be because he realizes what a shallow, sexist opinion he really has. Too bad he didn't realize before posting that if you don't want to clearly explain your "point", there's probably something wrong with it.

[Vickers]

48. Holy crap! DUMBEST. POST. EVER.

:eyes:

[Sparkly]

49. How does Bush look without makeup?

Don't you think Cheney needs to start working out?

I've heard Robert Gates has thick ankles.

Scooter Libby had horrible cuticles...

[Lydia Leftcoast]

53. I'm not fond of Hillary, but damn it, who are you to judge her looks?

That is a superficial, sexist, immature post by someone who thinks that women have an obligation to be "pretty scenery" for him and that any woman who does not serve this function is to be ignored or ridiculed.

That's what you're really saying, isn't it, bigdarryl?

I see that mindset in a lot of different environments.

[Auntie Bush]

54. Who here can cast the first stone?

Who here pushing 60 with no makeup, still hard at work thinks they could look better? If you do...I have a bridge to hit you over the head with and you are in for a rude awaking. That wasn't a very nice post for a fellow Democrat to post. Sorry if I offended you or hurt your feelings. I'm sure you were just trying to be funny...but it was hurtful and was needed to be said. I hope others are listening...me too because I know I have also said some unkind things about others...but I'm trying to learn not to be hypocritical....learning to change our ways is a bitch!

[peace13]

55. I've said it before and I'll say it again...

All that is missing is a smile and if you expect Hillary or Nancy or any other member of Congress, male or female to be smiling anytime soon you are in for a long wait. I hope these people keep looking for the long needed solutions to this nations problems. While they are working on this I do not care what they look like. I know this has to be taking a physical toll on these folks. When I look at myself in the mirror I see it there as well. Peace on earth, Kim

[Burma Jones]

56. IBTL

[mtnsnake]

57. BigD, you have discovered The Secret Formula

in garnering overwhelming support on the Democratic Underground for Hillary Clinton.

I never thought I'd live to see the day when so many people on DU would show up on a single thread in such an outstanding showing of support for her. Here on this one thread alone, Hillary's received more sympathy and support than in all the previous threads over the last 2 years combined! You go, guy!!

:evilgrin:

Sexist flame-bait.
