Palin's skirt is embarassingly short for a serious politician in her NBC interview

[Coexist]

her too-much-showing legs with Gramps sitting nearby grunting and nodding, makes the Benny Hill ticket look even funnier.

1. Works for me. :) (n/t)

[ShortnFiery]

51. Keep it in check!

That OTHER head shouldn't be doing that thinking for you. :evilgrin:

[debbierlus]

189. I don't understand how any male could be attracted to such an ugly person....

In my opinion, she looks like your generic white trash big haired barbie doll with too much makeup and crummy taste in clothes.

If that does it for you, I don't know how just knowing what she is and what she stands for...while I guess I would have thought
that would have made any male go limp.

Weird.

[Doremus]

73. Exactly why they're doing it. The horny male vote, lol n/t

76. Any distraction from her giant, square "man head" works for me, too.

As long as I don't have to see her garish tranny-face.

Regardless, she's such an evil cretin, she couldn't even be desirable with a face transplant.

[npincus]

134. ewwwww....

must be a guy-thing.

I for one am not turned on by stupid men or men with idiotic opinions, no matter how physically attractive they may be.

[seabeyond]

142. an immature guy thing. too many guys agree with you assessment

of what makes a female attractive.

[glitch]

151. I for two. Mel Gibson andTom Selleck spring to mind as the most obvious examples.

Very attractive until you hear their opinions, then nada.

[bvar22]

181. This guy....

...wouldn't touch her.
Plastic Stepford Women like her have never been a turn on for me.

However, Tina Fey is maximum HOT!
Go Figure.

[helderheid]

193. Ditto. Quayle is a prime example. He had that "ken doll" look but there is NOTHING attractive about

him. Dumber than a box of rocks.

[boppers]

120. Sadly, she's still running.

Must be the endless supply of 300 dollar clear nail polish.

[shaniqua6392]

6. She will have to get another one at Neiman Marcus after the interview.

I guess the RNC bought her a short skirt. They must have gotten fashion advice from the "ladies" over at Fixed News!!! LOL!!!

[VolcanoJen]

7. Chucky T just noted the complete lack of chemistry between McCain and Palin.

He says it was just staggering, they are not comfortable with each other. He also said they KNOW they're losing. That they're drained, they're guarded, and the whole campaign staff is down.

Works for me. :-) :thumbsup:

[CrispyQ]

165. I read that yesterday & watched a clip of them on stage together.

One of them was speaking - can't remember who. But afterwards, they gave each other a quick hug & then stood their with their arms around each other, for just a second until she broke it off very quickly.

I think each of them is just dying to blame the other one for their bad numbers.

[LSparkle]

8. She looks like a FauxBot ...

I LOVE the Todd critique: "There was a negative energy
in that room."

:rofl:

[KingFlorez]

9. That's part of their strategy

They think they can sew up more of the Male vote is Palin goes on television dressed like this.

[Blaq Dem]

I can see her slapping him on the head in the middle of him saying something odd and then the two of them chasing each other with the camera sped up.

out on the national stage?????? Jesus. That man has ZERO class and ZERO self-control.

[trueblue2007]

18. I said Palin was a slut...and got hollered at. I still say that.

Palin is NOT a professional. I think she is a slap to professional women. No presidential candidate or vice presidential candidate should wear dresses down to their navel or wear short skirts.

She is a MIDDLE AGED WOMAN. She isn't a teenager. I'm not saying she should dress dowdy. I am saying she should dress with decorum.

[yardwork]

20. I wouldn't have hollered at you. She dresses like a slut.

I don't know for a fact that she is a slut, but she dresses, talks, and acts like a slut. Just saying.

[monmouth]

27. Is that like the duck and the quack thing? I agree....LOL..n/t

[kestrel91316]

46. I totally agree. And by looking and acting this way, she has singlehandedly

set back women in politics THIRTY YEARS.

[yardwork]

48. I hope not. I don't think many people will compare her to other female politicians.

Palin is a joke, and she'd be a joke if she were male. She's out-Quayled Dan Quayle.

[jazzjunkysue]

104. Honestly, about 5 more inches of skirt was called for on national TV.

But that's only if she wants to be taken seriously.

[AlCzervik]

[afridemo]

21. Did you notice that Brian's question of 'preconditions' went

answered? Instead she started reciting their talking points, bla,bla bla.

C.Todd said he observed that there is little or no chemistry between McCain and Palin.

[LiberalAndProud]

49. Tweety to Brian Williams: "That's indicative of what?"

Before Brian answered, I'm sure it went through his head, "Indicative that Sarah Palin is simperingly stupid."

Of course he couldn't say it, but I'm pretty sure he thought it.

[LibraLiz1973]

97. Chucky T said it was straight up uncomfortable

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

23. she's shootin' beaver now?

[tabasco]

28. That's the funniest thing I've read all day.

From hunting moose to shooting beavers.

Is she "coming" up there too?

[Libby2]

[EvolveOrConvolve]

112. Oh Jeebus, that's wrong

but so damn funny!:spank:

[Bucky]

25. Are you also offended by Obama's shirtless photos on the beach?

If you can't see beaver (or the lack thereof) it ain't too short.

I have a wacky suggestion: talk about issues.

[Coexist]

26. gee... I am duly chastised.

presentation does matter, and at the beach, bathing suits are fine.

Lighten up, Frances.

[noiretextatique]

41. i think you make an excellent point...this silly woman

thinks she can compensate for her limited intellect by basically "showing her tits." she is an insult to women everywhere. and yes...her fng skirt is too short.

[traveller]

179. I find your

post to insulting. Dems do not need sexist comments.

[nichomachus]

155. What's wrong with being shirtless at the beach

It's wearing a pole-dancer outfit on national TV for a serious interview that's a problem.

Richard Nixon wore a tie and wingtips to the beach -- that didn't turn out so well.

[Debi]

31. I thought the Beavers were in Oregon...

Did you mean her vagina Bucky? That's the word grown ups use. And a skirt can still be considered too short before seeing a woman's vagina peaking out when she is sitting down.

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

44. Actually, only classless ignoramuses say vagina

It would be highly unusual to see a woman's vagina while looking up her skirt.

The entirety of the external female sex organs is the vulva.

You would see labia majora. You might see labia minora. You would be very unlikely to see "vagina" unless the pose was quite extreme.

Words have meanings. Learn them before snarking off on others.

[Debi]

56. Thank you for the anatomy lesson!

:rofl:

Where in your response was the word 'beaver'?

[1corona4u]

90. Only classless ignoramuses use classless descriptions,

such as beaver, when they should have just said crotch;

Dictionary.com Unabridged
crotch;
–noun 1. a forking or place of forking, as of the human body between the legs.

But I usually don't mention it!

[demokatgurrl]

133. Thank you for that, you are 100% correct.

If you're seeing vagina, you must be a gynecologist.

[ZeitGuy]

207. Touche. (nt)

[road2000]

68. Hey, Debi --

Please take this in the humorous spirit in which it's meant: I hope my vagina never "peaks out!"

[Debi]

88. I did - and was just giving Bucky shit

I'm going to guess Bucky knew that as there was no 'tart' response.

(except for the last part that is....a skirt can be too short w/out lady business peaking out! - speaking of lady business http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Night_Live/video/clips/woomba/229062/ )

[jazzjunkysue]

109. She wasn't able to snatch anything else out of her closet on short notice.

Just a guess.

[insanity]

158. As an Oregon State Student,

I do not like seeing my beloved Benny Beaver in any thread with Sarah Palin's name.

Also, I've heard every beaver joke ever from UO students.

[Debi]

170. Growing up in Montana - the Dillion High School mascot was the Beavers

I cannot tell you how many of us girls from Bozeman would be nice to those Dillion boys just to get our hands on a 'Beaver Football' T-shirt! :bounce:

[noiretextatique]

37. too short does not mean you "see beaver"

professional women, especially those on the public eye, shouldn't dress like hookers. just another example of palin's appalling lack of judgment (and intelligence).

50. It's kind of sad that we have to point this out on Democratic Underground.

126. Yes.

[RollWithIt]

194. Wanted to point out, she's not at the beach, she's giving a nationally televised interview...

Now, if Obama showed up wearing short shorts and no shirt to an NBC interview I'd be upset.

[madaboutharry]

30. I thought it was too short.

The skirt was too short. It wasn't appropriate. And McCain looks like a dirty old man when he is around her.

[olegramps]

136. Correction: McCain is a confirmed Dirty Old Man.

[rvablue]

32. I wrote about this when she was at the UN and got a little burnt for it

She is totally and completely inappropriate!!

Of course, she is completely aware as to how much leg she is showing and how it will be caught by the cameras during a wide shot. She's a whore! I said it. I'm a woman, BTW, and I like girly/feminine clothes, but when you are being considered for serious position you dress the part. I woulnd't wear a skirt like that to a job interview if I wanted to be taken seriously.....she's just tacky!

[trueblue2007]

83. rvablue - I agree with you. I got hollered at here on DU

I said Palin acted like or dressed like a slut. Glad to see another gal is pointing that decorum and dressing the part is important.

Everyone made fun of Hillary's pantsuits. But Hillary was tasteful. I felt embarrassed for Palin and her skirt up to here!!! Maybe I'm not saying that right. Hope you understand.

[crazy_vanilla]

59. she is following the example of Paris, Lindsey, and Britney

A little bit too long in the tooth for that, hee?

[Uzybone]

65. I just saw it..you guys are right

its at least 3-5 inches too short. No serious woman would wear something like that while trying to get an important job.

[Thrill]

67. what happened to the conservative christain bs?

[olegramps]

143. That all depends where she applying for a job. Pimps would think it appropriate.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

66. I just saw it on MSNBC - the skirt was nearly mid-thigh when she was seated

Personally, it doesn't bother me and it's not a factor in my dislike for this person, but it doesn't seem too classy for a VP candidate.

The shorter the skirt, the uglier the face, usually.

Sort of like talking about gays, guns, and god in lieu of real politics.

[DeschutesRiver]

98. Palin is an Anna Nicole Smith clone draped across a hot car to sell it

to a bunch of washed up geezers and hooters type guys.

Except she doesn't have the hooters, so they tossed in a bunch of knee high leather boots and really short skirts to make up the deficit - plus cue the flirty bar fly gestures every couple of minutes. Stroke this, stroke that, lick up that finger and wave it around, wink, wink.

A breast enhancement job would be too obvious at his late date, so the poor thing is working with what she's got. Like, not much.

Ewww. I need a shower after the ugly visuals in this thread. We are talking about a moron who could actually end up PRESIDENT. Never thought I'd live long enough to see someone this frivolous and low IQ be taken at all seriously for this position.

[Orsino]

114. Draped across a jalopy.

A jalopy that leaks radioactive oil and blood.

[DeschutesRiver]

173. Yeah, this would be funny imagery, but for the fact if elected, she'd have that manicured finger on

the nuke button.

[Carni]

156. OMG You just pegged it! *flirty bar fly gestures*

You just put the last piece in the puzzle for me...

YES! She reminds me of an 80's bar fly type!

Speaking of that...what in the name of God is up with the red leather blazer/jacket I have seen her in on the campaign trail? UG!

[DeschutesRiver]

172. Haven't seen the red leather blazer yet, but I am sick to death of those knee high leather boots

They give her enough money to buy a house, send her into the nation's premiere shopping meccas, and she loads up on utter crap. Just like the stuff she used to wear, but with a higher price tag. I had been watching her and thinking what stupid outfits - sometimes she is dressed in a white shirt with a black skirt, and all I think is "steakhouse waitress" flirting for tips.

Then I see the leather boots, and "these boots are made for walking....", that song just replays in my head.

And now I find out that she went into stores that serve those high in society, and spent serious republican party members' donation money on this crap? This is wrong on so many levels.

Like apparently you can put lipstick on a pig, but it is still a pig. Can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Palin will learn to have good taste when pigs fly.

Oink.

She's a bimbo. Nothing is going on upstairs and she has no choice but to wink and show some leg. It's sad.

130. Oh My God What A Bunch Of Fuckin Prudes. She Looked Fine.

The skirt is nowhere near being too short and I thought she looked quite professional, no matter how much I can't stand her. I see nothing embarrassing about it at all. We should stick to real issues.

[mtnsnake]

144. Thank you

This thread is chock full of stupid.

[Kalyke]

166. Thank you.

I wear my hems about that length and I wear high-necked suit collars. I'm 38 and professional. There is nothing wrong with the way she dresses.

It's her lack of domestic and foreign policy acuman that embarrass the hell out of me as a woman. I think her clothing is quite nice.

And, she's not too old!

[magdalena]

177. That skirt would not be allowed at many companies.

I've worked in many firms and offices with business casual and business professional environments. None of them allowed skirts that rose more than 3 inches above the knee when seated. I personally could give a shit about what she wears, but as a general standard her outfit WAS unprofessional. I do agree that we should stick to real issues, though. I'm sick of this Palin wardrobe week.

[Orsino]

178. "She looked fine" is the reason she wore it.

Had she anything of import to say, or any accomplishments to brag about, I might give her a pass on showing a little skin. It's not extreme IMO, as you say.

But that's obviously all she has going on, so it's jeer-worthy.

[Zuiderelle]

186. Nope, it's entirely unprofessional in her position and on a national interview.

I'm sick of women who use their sex appeal to get by, and she does it to the fucking hilt.

There's a place for short skirts, and I love a woman's legs as much as (or more than) you do, but there's a place and a time for it.

I would be criticizing Obama too, if he went to an interview wearing shorts. Women HAVE to stop dressing like that or we will continue to be dismissed as objects. I'd be PLEASED if all women in politics never wore dresses at all, but I know that won't happen, so I'll settle for not dressing inappropriately.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

192. No, It Really Isn't.

This whole thread is ridiculous.

[Zuiderelle]

196. Yes. It. Really. Is.

And yes, this whole thread is ridiculous.

199. No, It Really Isn't.

She looks totally professional in that clip and many in this thread remind me of whacked out fundies I'd see whining about something on fox news.

201. LOL. You're like a dog with a bone. You just can't let go.

You think whatever you like, and I'll think whatever I like. She looks UNPROFESSIONAL to me.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

203. Well Then I Guess You're The Shaggy Dog Right Next To Me.

This thread is full of the same ridiculous fundy mentality that we see on fox when they're bitching about some stupid crap.

[Zuiderelle]

204. Yep. The ridiculous fundy mentality shaggy dog bitching about stupid crap. That's me.

:patriot:

[BlooInBloo]

137. I had no problem with it. :P

[mtnsnake]

139. Bottom line is that she looks like a fucking goofball. Runaway Bride junior at the very best.

[formercia]

145. The little republican penis vote.

Desperate times require desperate measures. Out comes the rubber ruler.

[Carni]

146. LOL! So it wasn't *JUST ME* thinking this!

I am so glad you posted this!

I was just discussing this topic with a good friend of mine this morning and we were both wondering if we were sounding like old prudes lol because we bothe thought that skirt was WAYYYYY too short and looked tacky and unprofessional
(although can that dolt BE professional? I think not)

If any woman Democrat did that the media and GOPers would have a freaking field day!

[SIMPLYB1980]

148. Picard says he'd hit it. LoL!

[salinen]

149. there is a series danger here

Palin may set the standard for VP's and we may soon see Cheney
in similar dress. I don't wanna think about Cheney's junk.

[cascadiance]

153. She's "interviewing" to be a Faux News "babe" after the election...

... after she and McSame lose, and after she gets thrown out of the governorship of Alaska post election. She'll be needing a job, and I'm sure the Faux News folks are asking her to "show" how she'd fit in their operation...

[marions ghost]

162. Maybe

I betting she and Todd will become televangelists and get filthy rich.

[zulchzulu]

154. At least she wasn't wearing her dominatrix boots...

McCreepy would have stuck out his tongue again.

[marions ghost]

157. Gramp and Vamp

as somebody around here described the matchup.

Another cute little made for TV pseudo-flirtation. The old folks really get off on this stuff, I know because my Dad (big Obama supporter) is a youthful 80, but I can tell the McDuck/Pailin combo stimulates his fantasies....

She's thinking: "OK time to butter up the old fool. Jesus knows he gives me the creeps! Ick."

He's thinking: "Dumb as a post, so just smile and show appreciation of the bod & do some damage control. I can't believe they stuck me with her...oh well, if I lose, at least they'll blame her."

[Loge23]

159. Garbage wrapped in skin

Can't see the skin for all the garbage.

[Eurobabe]

160. Silly Bristol forgot to read the cleaning instructions n/t

[ksoze]

163. Brian said he could see the Volva River & the Black Sea from his seat

[merh]

164. I didn't see the interview

Is there an image/photo?

[CrispyQ]

167. Stacy & Clinton say no mini-skirts after 40.

I was cleaning out my closet a few weeks ago - something I haven't done in ages. I have a few skirts that I loved when I was younger & they are still in good condition & fit, but when I tried them on, I looked like one of those women who can't come to terms with her age & so dresses like she's still 30. They are now in a box to be donated to the thrift shop. Let some young woman have them & enjoy them as much as I did when I was young!

If my husband read this he would scratch his head & wonder when was the last time I wore a skirt!

[jberryhill]

168. Much of the world will not take her seriously due to that

Not that I support or favor standards applied only to women, but it would impact our world influence if she were to be elected and not dress modestly.

Hillary Clinton is impressive and influential according to what counts, which is from the neck up.

[krkaufman]

169. What? Do you see some men wearing skirts?

What male politician doesn't dress "modestly"?

[jberryhill]

205. International business attire - IMHO - whether male or female

Should not expose legs, arms or toes.

Even if it is a man in a skirt:

[terrya]

171. I'm shuddering picturing a President Palin at the G8 summit looking like some goddamned hooker.

[Left Is Write]

174. Eep.

There are two words in that sentence that should never be put together...!

[zonkers]

175. Bennie Hill Ticket.. if this is your line, you should write comedy.

[Coexist]

209. it is my line... and thanks

call Jon Stewart for me, will ya!

[genna]

180. This might be counterintuitive but she could have on a hooker's mini & it'd be alright

with me. Women pass 40 can wear whatever they want. If that is how she wants to present herself, FINE BY ME!

[cascadiance]

182. She's already getting foreign leaders "in trouble"...

Check out this "fatwa" against the new leader of Pakistan (it does sound a bit "onionesque"...)

[David__77]

183. It was short. Their joint interviews are weird.

It makes her look like weak. It makes him look old.

[Nye Bevan]

185. OMG! You *could* see her knees!

And her ankles! I am *shocked* that NBC did not pixellate out these private body-parts. This might have prevented some of the "frustration" that many seem to be venting in this thread.

[janx]

212. haha!

I'm a writer woman and think I am in love with you.

[TexasObserver]

187. It's her short resume' that causes her ass to show, not her skirt.

[olegramps]

190. The gals of the night were hoping that she isn't working their corner.

It goes that they are going to be first in line to scarf up her outfits.

[renie408]

197. I thought the same thing. She was showing an awful lot of thigh for someone who wants to be taken

seriously.

[Liberal_in_LA]

198. And what middle aged female politician or business women goes bare legged. She had no nylons on

[FlaDem83]

200. I agree!! I really do. Drives me nuts.

[Zuiderelle]

202. Yep.

And interesting that most of the ones saying that it's perfectly ok are men. Um... that's part of the point. I'm sure it IS ok with a lot of men. It would be ok if we all wore bikinis to work and danced on poles too.

[Nye Bevan]

210. Of course it would.

I believe in a woman's right to choose. Especially if that choice is wearing a bikini to work. ;-)

[Liberal_in_LA]

213. lol.
