Turns out, Conway is not even housebroken

[dixiegrrrrl]

[guillaumeb]

1. Why is she even sitting in that position?

Very strange.

[Bucky]

28. force of habit?

[guillaumeb]

44. Leading to a question that I will not ask. eom

[yeoman6987]

29. She was taking a picture of the educators

It's all over twitter.

[Kingofalldems]

42. So that's an excuse for her behavior, yeoman6987?

[Orrex]

79. It's taken out of context, unfortunately

She took a picture from that position in order to get all of the subjects in the frame. This is shown in the pic immediately prior to the one we're all lampooning.

In the much-mocked image, she's checking the pic that she just snapped, to see if she got everyone.

She's kneeling in that position (i.e., "her behavior&quot because it was the best way to get all of the people in the picture.


It's fun to mock her, of course, but we're going to look like idiots if we don't shut up about this.

[guillaumeb]

45. I showed the picture to my wife.

Her comments were:

Conway is too old to be wearing that dress, and

What is she advertising?

And there are plenty of photographers who could take a picture without being in that position.

[yeoman6987]

54. Lol. I can't dispute any of your wife's questions.

She's right on all 3.

[appleannie1943]

2. Showed that picture to my 81 yr. old hubby. He said

What a F-ing pig. Is she advertising or what?

[Warpy]

8. Your dad and I had the same nasty thought

Maybe she thinks if she gives all those men a show by making it easy to look up her skirt, she can keep her job for a while longer.

It's completely inappropriate to the situation. Shit, I'm the original slob and even I know when I need to keep my feet on the floor.

[malaise]

19. Slutty and classless

but I expect no less

[guillaumeb]

46. Just the way Trump likes them?

I had to ask.

[whathehell]

71. Oh please...This pic would have barely gotten a second look if she were an "approved" woman

I can't stand Conway, but there really ARE better reasons to attack her than this...I feel like I'm sitting with a bunch of catty old crones.

[LOL Lib]

76. Really?

I don't think ANY man or woman should have such disrespect for the Oval Office.

[whathehell]

80. Yes really

It looks somewhat inappropriate, but hardly deserving of all the ridiculous slut shaming. Ffs, you'd have thought she was sitting there naked.

[LOL Lib]

81. If she had been kneeling on the ground,

I would have no problem with it. The fact that she has no goddamned respect for the furniture pisses me off. Would you be pissed off if she came to your home and used your sofa as a door mat for her filthy shoes? I have no pity for her, sorry. She is a 50 something adult. She knows what she is doing.

[appleannie1943]

84. And most little girls are taught by the age of 5 or 6 to sit with their knees together and their

feet on the floor. And when they get old enough to wear high heels, acting like an adult and not jamming the heels into the upholstery are part of the territory of adulthood. My husband took one look at that picture, without me saying anything, and asked if she was advertising or giving it away.

[LOL Lib]

87. Thank you!

You and your hub totally get it.

[whathehell]

92. Tsk, tsk..

Poor Miss Kellyann just didn't get the proper raising, I guess....Let's all snub her at our next Catty Mean Girl Slut Shaming session.

[LOL Lib]

88. Nice try.

LOL you almost had me until you brought up Bill and Monica. And yes there is another pic that clearly showed her heels on the sofa.

[whathehell]

90. Lol, who needs to "try" with you?

Your 'point' is so petty and lame.

[csziggy]

93. Snopes shows a photo that proves she had her high heels on

With the heel of at least one of them digging into the upholstery.

http://www.snopes.com/2017/02/28/kellyanne-conway-couch/

But I sort of agree with the Washington Post as quoted by Snopes - "This tempest in a teapot is, in a word, dumb."

ETA - there a much more important things we should spend our time on.

[whathehell]

94. Oh my Gawwd..

Call the Palace Guard...This is stake burning stuff!

Seriously, though, Snopes and WaPo are right..Tempest in a Teapot, and dumb. We do have bigger fish to fry.

[csziggy]

96. I have to be honest - if she did that in my house on my furniture

She would have been thrown out immediately. But then, given her history I would never have let her in the front (or back) door in the first place.

But I get the feeling that Conway will be out pretty soon - her usefulness to Trump was exhausted when the media stopped letting her air alternative facts.

[whathehell]

97. That's okay..

I'm guessing she'd prefer the White House over your house anyway..

[appleannie1943]

23. She had a large audience but no one seemed interested. LOL

[whathehell]

72. She is facing AWAY from them...

Hence, no "audience" involved.

[appleannie1943]

73. No. If you look at the whole picture she is in the middle with a line of men behind her and a line

of men in front of her. Trumpery is in the middle behind his gold plated desk. They sort of form a tunnel in front of him.

[whathehell]

83. Who cares? The point is, both her distance and her posture relative

to the group -- they standing, she sitting -- make exposure impossible. .

[whathehell]

64. Um, before we all get carried away with the slut-shaming..

She is clearly faced AWAY from the men, so there is no "show" being given.

Given that, it seems wiser to focus on RELEVANT matters concerning Conway, rather than

petty, sexist drivel....Just a thought.

[NCTraveler]

75. "RELEVANT matters concerning Conway"

Like her complete lack of character or respect that is on full display here. Maybe you find it to be professional behavior. I say it paints a bigger picture as to how unprofessional she is. The exact "relevant" points you claim we should be focusing on.

[whathehell]

82. "full display" my ass...She is facing AWAY from the people

standing there -- Nothing to see.

Not, it's not particularly professional, but it's not Whore of Babylon stuff, either, and wouldn't be treated as such if she weren't a WOMAN we dislike for far different reasons.

[appleannie1943]

86. Then what are those black man like things in suits that are standing in front of her? Robots?

[whathehell]

89. Have you had your vision checked lately? NO one is directly in front

of her...A man is standing to her front left and again, their relative vantage points make exposure impossible...Get that?

[NCTraveler]

114. Never said they were. You completely made that up.

And here is the bullshit you dumped I'm my inbox.

"> and if you'd read even a sampling of the posts on the thread you would know that....One poster asked d if she was "wearing underpants", another if she was "offering or advertising". Still another reported that her husband called her a "pig" and another, in the subject line, no less, calls her "Slutty and classless"
>
> Sorry, NC, you may not have referenced the W of B stuff, but others certainly were...Disgusting, overblown, sexism that would be
> never have been thrown at a male OR a democratic woman. "

Keep it to yourself. You keep speaking for me. You do so while referencing things I have never said. That is extremely shady. Now you are PMing me with your bullshit. Keep it to yourself. It is truly classless to communicate in the dishonest manner in which you have. If you want to go that far in making things up, do it publicly on the board, as you have been doing. I speak for myself. You should stop making things up that I have said.

"you may not have referenced the W of B stuff"

Glad you were honest enough to put that bit of truth in there. It clearly displays that the rest of your reply to me is completely made up bunk trying to associate me with others.

[NCTraveler]

104. It's not about what people can see. It's about setting and decorum.

"it's not particularly professional"

We fully agree yet you are arguing. I don't get it.

"but it's not Whore of Babylon stuff"

When did I reference anything even close to that?

You are fighting just to fight. Nothing new.

[Goblinmonger]

112. You do know she was on the sofa for a picture angle, right?

This link has a picture of her taking the picture.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/03/01/kellyanne-conway-explains-disrespectful-oval-office-sofa-picture/

We need to let this go. It makes us look stupid.

[whathehell]

91. All those men can't get a "show" when she's turned AWAY from them

and at a vantage point (they standing, she sitting) which makes exposure impossible...But don't let that stop all the petty, slut shaming 'fun'.

[Goblinmonger]

105. Yes. Let's slut shame her.

That's really progressive of us.

[Renew Deal]

3. Is that real?

[onenote]

4. What we should be asking is why the repubs aren't criticizing her

the way they went after Obama for putting his feet up on the Oval Office desk.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

6. Can you imagine what would happen if Michele Obama did that?

[Jeroen]

7. Torches and pitchforks for sure

[demmiblue]

53. They would be talking about it for the next couple of decades.

Shite, she was castigated for being sleeveless!

[Goblinmonger]

106. That's not a solid reason to go after her, though.

I think this is being blown out of proportion by the left and makes us look silly.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

118. I don't disagree.

Just like when they did it to President Obama, I knew it would take all of three seconds to find pics of the other side doing it.

That doesn't mean we can't have some fun with it.

And yeah, it was sort of disrespectful not to move out of the way once she was done. She ruined the 'Take A Photo With Cracker Before He Gets Impeached Day' photo op.

[Demsrule86]

5. Trashy.

[gopiscrap]

9. no kidding

[Arkansas Granny]

10. I came of age during the 60's. I remember quite well the struggle that women had in gaining equal

rights in the workplace. It was impressed upon us how hard it would be to gain acceptance into a world of men and how the actions of one could have an impact on the careers of many. If we wished to be treated as professionals, we had to act in a professional manner at all times.

Kellyanne's position is Counselor to the President of the United States. You would think that someone who had attained a job at that level would know better than to give crotch shots in the Oval Office in front of a visiting delegation. She knew that photographers were recording the meeting. I'll bet the gentlemen standing across from her could tell you the color of her panties.

She should be ashamed, but I'm betting that she's not.

[dixiegrrrrl]

12. I am trying to figure out where her shoes are.

Is she walking around the Oval Office shoeless?
or does she have her shoes on the furniture under her butt?

and why or why would anyone sit like that--esp during a meeting in the OO?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

18. They're on the couch

Link to tweet

[Bucky]

30. They were on. Which is just as tacky as walking around the Oval shoelace.

[calguy]

14. Maybe she wasn't wearing any

[Arkansas Granny]

15. Aarghh! Now you've done it!

[guillaumeb]

47. Underwear or shoes?

On second thought, please do not answer.

[rzemanfl]

26. You do her a courtesy by assuming she is wearing panties. n/t

[CTyankee]

27. Do you think she is even wearing UNDERPANTS?

[Arkansas Granny]

38. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt, but with such a ladylike pose, you've got to wonder.

You're not the first poster to make that observation.

[CTyankee]

39. I see that. Well, GMTA, or something...

[whathehell]

55. Oh please..

not the lame sexism again.

[CTyankee]

61. Oh please, dumb is dumb and we can take that. We're all grown ups.

This woman has outlasted her time on stage. Time to retire the act. She ain't fooling anyone.

[whathehell]

62. And that has WHAT to do with silly, over the top speculation about "underpants"?

Last edited Wed Mar 1, 2017, 05:05 AM - Edit history (1)

You're right....That IS dumb.

[Dem2]

11. this photo is everywhere

[dixiegrrrrl]

24. and even more so now.

Twitter is saying Twitler is getting tired of seeing this photo and of Conway creating negative news.

Good!!!!

[CTyankee]

32. Well, he knew what he was getting when he hired her...

[msongs]

13. maybe she gets photo shoot tips from melania nt

[SwissTony]

16. I know I'm quoting "West Wing" but...

isn't the rule "When the president stands, everybody stands" actually a rule?

[dixiegrrrrl]

25. That is what hubris leads people to do...

She obviously is special, if only in her own mind.
too bad Trump lacks the awareness to catch her message, in that behavior.

[smirkymonkey]

20. It's just so unprofessional!

That's something you might do when you are home at night in your pajamas, but not when you are in a professional role at the White House in a formal meeting. She is completely classless!

[Arkansas Granny]

40. Exactly. She's a Counselor to the President of the United States.

I can't stand her and I can't stand the President, but she could show a little decorum when they have a delegation of professional people in the Oval Office. It just shows what little regard and respect she has for the office or the people that the President meets with.

[Mendocino]

21. Maybe there's a litter box under her.

She tweets while on the crapper just like the boss.

[MineralMan]

22. I've seen 14 year old girls sit that way on a couch.

Kellyanne ain't 14. She should know better. It's not cute, Kellyanne. You're not cute, Kellyanne. Stop that!

[CTyankee]

31. Can't wait to hear Morning Mika tomorrow...she's kinda prim...she'll have an opinion...

[madaboutharry]

35. Mika is prim and proper, this kind of stuff seems to bother her.

It will be interesting if she mentions it.

[CTyankee]

36. She'll be confused. Joe will be shaking his head. I wanna hear what Colbert has to say...

he can get pretty risque at times...

[11 Bravo]

33. As always, elegant and tasteful.

[SticksnStones]

34. Even more disturbing, it hardly looks like this was the first time she's done that.

No. Just no.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

37. I don't think she's on the "good furniture"

Just some old couch left there by the previous tenant.

It'll be replaced by something much more audacious.

[RelativelyJones]

41. It's just disrespectful

Like she just doesn't give a shit; which she doesn't.

[lunatica]

43. Showing everyone that she feels right at home in the Oval Office

Her message is quite clear. This is something most people never do in someone else's house. Only in their own. So she's showing everyone there that this is her house.

And that "Daddy" allows it. He's over there, grinning like a fool. See? He loves it.

[Mariana]

78. I don't think most people do that in their own homes.

Who puts their feet on the upholstery while they're wearing shoes? The heel on the shoe looks like it's going to puncture the fabric.

[demmiblue]

52. That's a position a lot of women are well acquainted with...

nothing wrong with that. It is the setting that is the problem.

[Goblinmonger]

107. Yeah. She has sex. What a fucking loser she is.

Is this seriously what this place has become?

[BannonsLiver]

49. Ordinarily I'd advocate the couch be burned because she probably has crabs

Or worse. But in this case who GAF if someone gets them.

[ileus]

50. What a goofy old bag.

[Eliot Rosewater]

51. These ugly, horrible AWFUL people dont deserve to visit that room let alone inhabit it

[Blue_Roses]

56. Not sure how to respond

to this since so many thoughts run through my mind. But, have to say the first thought is "tacky". I read an article in the Washington Post, that said "liberals" are making a big deal out of this picture and that it wasn't that big of a deal. WRONG.

As one who was born and raised in the Deep South, you can bet your shiney ass that there are many southern, conservative, GOP women, "whispering" about how "un-ladylike" this is. Can you imagine Laura Bush, Michelle Obama, or Hillary Clinton sitting like this? I couldn't even see the Bush twins doing it.

And not to mention how unprofessional it looks. I strongly believe the way one carries themself is a true testament to their moral code. Have a little class for pete's sake, Kellyanne.

Maybe on a Friday night, at home, while eating pizza and watching a movie, but here, in this setting. Um, No.

[wildeyed]

57. That is a bizarre photo.

I sit with my legs folded all the time, but not in a skirt. Particularly not in front of a bunch of men in a professional situation.

[whathehell]

63. Um, she is facing away from them..

I can't stand Conway, but all this cluck clucking about her "unladylike" posture in one photo

seems a bit over the top.

[Tree-Hugger]

66. This nt

[wildeyed]

69. A man sitting like that in a professional setting would be bizarre too.

Even more bizarre if he was wearing shorts that allowed people to see his drawers from certain angles.

[whathehell]

70. Minus the all important slut shaming, perhaps..

This one photo would have gone virtually unnoticed were it someone politically "approved" and I think we all know that.

As for "seeing his drawers", the only way hers could be seen is if someone bent over sideways to see them.

[moriah]

102. It's not "unladylike", it's unprofessional.....

.... especially when there are people in suits standing for a photo.

"Go right ahead, I've got to finish this tweet"...

[Goblinmonger]

108. She was taking their picture and checking to see if it was a good picture.

But, yeah, the tweet thing makes her sound worse, so let's go with that.

[moriah]

110. Is your opinion based on more than just the photo?

Based from both the angle of her phone and the angle she was sitting, it looks like she was either tweeting or checking email without context on when the photo was taken. Everyone else still seems camera-ready.

I don't know the backstory, so if you would be so kind as to explain why you perceived the photo that way, it would be much appreciated. A link would really help, but if you don't have one handy I understand.

[Goblinmonger]

111. From what I have read

she said that right before this picture was taken, she had taken the picture of all those present with Trump. As the picture was snapped, she was looking at the picture on her phone to see if she needed to take another. That explanation makes sense to me. I could try find the article I read, but I'm sure there are multiple out there saying that.

I don't think I read it on the Telegraph, but this is the top link that came up. This article has a photo of her on the sofa taking a picture of everyone.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/03/01/kellyanne-conway-explains-disrespectful-oval-office-sofa-picture/

[skypilot]

116. This is the OTHER picture...

...that is not being shown. I think it provides more context and, in my opinion, explains her position on the couch in the more infamous picture.

[moriah]

117. Thanks. I'm still slightly unconvinced, since she was holding her phone in portrait mode.....

... and the photo was in landscape. But if does give *some* other explanation, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt... somewhat.

I would have expected if she was sitting that way and at that angle it was a photo for her to share, not a test for the eventual photo or an attempt to avoid being over the seal on the floor.

The misogynistic attacks have been uncalled for. Takei's "Don't pick on her, she's a double amputee from the Bowling Green Massacre", however, was funny. Very very funny.

[Takket]

58. i guess she couldn't find a single person in the room she wanted to talk to

[IcyPeas]

59. oh, who cares?

I don't. c'mon

[6000eliot]

60. Maybe the room full of educators whose dignity she is insulting care.

Can anyone in this administration do ANY fucking thing to reach out to those they have marginalized without also insulting them?

[Goblinmonger]

109. She was taking their picture.

To publicize it. Shich seems like she's trying to not marginalize them. But, hey, she's a horrible person so let's go after her about this. Which makes us look silly, but do carry on.

[6000eliot]

113. Not interested in arguing this.

[Goblinmonger]

115. Well, if you continue to say things that are not correct

then expect to be called on it. Your "arguing" of it notwithstanding.

I don't like her. At all. But making this the thing we are going to hit her hard on is just silly.

[Warren DeMontague]

65. ehhhh with this guy apparently that's not a bug, it's a feature

[Tree-Hugger]

67. Don't care

I can see that she is in that position to take photos. Don't care. I don't care that her shoes are on the couch. I don't care what she is wearing, which is a completely regular dress that a woman of any age can wear if she chooses. It is very disappointing to read some of the responses here. Plenty of misogyny to go around.

I care about the fact that a picture of Kellyann goes unnoticed by the GOP humpers, but if Michelle had dared to tuck her feet under her on the Oval Office couch while taking pics you can bet your sweet bippy that GOP nuts would have Damn near burned the White House down.

[whistler162]

68. Where is Martin Sheen when you need him

?t=26

[Act_of_Reparation]

74. She's sitting on a couch in an unorthodox manner.

Who fucking cares. If this is the worst thing she does all week, it will come as sweet relief.

[LOL Lib]

77. It seems to me like she was overcome with giddiness.

She would have stood on her head to get a picture of the SCROTUS with all those smiling "black people."

95. Much Ado About Nothing - nt

the office furniture? The horror, the horror!

[whathehell]

100. Exactly..
