I'd invite Lizzie Velasquez to dinner with my Family before most public & political women out there today...

[Nea Wood]

I agree. There are plenty of people, without diseases, who are uglier than this lady.

[angcat]

Ugly is inside therefore Michelle Obama she be awarded this title.

[Salamander]

Not at all.

Skeeter’s just given me a giggle...:)

When Velasquez was in high school, she discovered an eight second video of herself on YouTube titled “World’s Ugliest Woman.” The video garnered millions of views and comments. Perhaps one of the most hurtful was one who told her to “put a gun to her head and kill herself,” according to IB Times. But this only motivated Velasquez to rise up against cyber bullying.

I thought Youtube had a pollicy against this sort of thing. They certainly showed no restraint in deleting Michele Malkin's videos when they "offended" someone.

Just imagine what Nancy Pelosi would look like WITHOUT her plastic surgery.

Cries of “guilty” are usually found in threads with mugshot photos for people who’ve already done bad things (”allegedly”).

Nothing this woman has done has invited scorn or rejection from the peanut gallery.

She might live forever...

Sadly in the jury box, vile attractive women are also often “not guilty,” and men, ugly or attractive, are often “guilty.” I think we see many cases where a woman gets nothing or a slap on the wrist for crimes that eould send a man away. That’s even worse sexism!

May cause premature death? I’d say at 60lbs or so that that is a high probability. It’s what she’s doing with her time that is inspiring. I hope she knows Jesus and is serving him.

[beandog]

Then why are so many ugly women elected to the house and senate?

[informavoracious]

Pretty women marry rich men?

[stylin19a]

sorry....it aint official until it come from the hit man

[beandog]

My point is if ugly women are so degraded and picked upon they wouldn’t be in such high office. People wouldn’t vote for them.

[informavoracious]

My point is maybe ugly women are all they had to pick from.

[beandog]

That’s certainly not the case in my state. Babs Mikulski is about as ugly as they come. Attractive people have run against her. They like her because she’s liberal and butt ugly. Lots of attractive women have run and not won. I think a lot of men talk a lot about attractive women but in reality they don’t trust them and would rather vote for a ugly woman.

You forgot that far-left epitome of beauty....Democrat Cong. Rosa DeLauro.

She's so ugly her face could stop a sun dial.

(I'm a gal, so I can call 'em as I see 'em, LOL)

[Lazamataz]

She’s cool. I like her.

[Lazamataz]

I don't see ugly when I look at that picture.

I'm with you. Ugly is an attitude. Boxer, Pelosi, Hitler, Reid, Obama, Stalin, Soros, Feinstein.... those are UGLY people.

I thought I would scroll through the rest of the thread before commenting the same thing. This person needs to check out Salamanders page. I SERIOUSLY would NOT want to mess with her!
