More than any of their other hate speech, the left’s attacks on women for being ugly tell you everything. There is nothing so irredeemably cruel as an attack on a woman for her looks.

I've been complaining about this tendency for years...unfortunately it's some of my fellow Freepers who are guilty. I daresay if you tune into just about any Hillary thread, you won't get far before the "She so ugly" comments show up. Ditto any liberal woman.

I'm going to use the above Anne Coulter quote from now on to bolster my argument against this childish practice.

OK. Show me a pretty liberal woman with a nice, accommodating, pleasant attitude towards life and conservatives. 8<)

I have to agree with you there. I see this a lot on FR. It's particularly bizarre when the liberal woman in question clearly ISN'T ugly. I do wonder about those whose first or most persistent argument is "She's ugly." Surely there are far better arguments than that.

I've made it my personal mission to even things out, though. Whenever a male lib is being discussed, I'll try to inject, "What an ugly, fat pig," regardless of how attractive the man might actually be. ;-)
