Sexist? Pelosi's wardrobe
AP ^ | November 21, 2006 | JOCELYN NOVECK

NEW YORK — "The emperor has no clothes," House Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi once famously said about President Bush.

Well, actually he has some fairly decent ones, but it's been Pelosi's clothes _ stylish, well-chosen and nicely cut, of the Armani variety _ that have garnered attention since she became the most powerful woman in American politics earlier this month.

She's got a nice figure and looks better than Hillary in a pant suit--that's the nicest thing I'll say about her.

The task for the media, McBride says, is to do it in proper context, and in a way that doesn't reinforce stereotypes.
Yeah, that's the task of the media alright. To make sure there's no sexism in reporting about the clothes that politicians wear. Forget about covering the biggest story of the millenium --- that .7 billion women are living in abject slavery. What's really important is that the news coverage of what Nancy Pelosi wears is fair and balanced.

Oh yeah. These "feminists" have their priorities straight. Yes indeed. They do indeedy do.

Yeah, too bad she's a nutjob. I love this from the article: "Why do we focus on Pelosi's clothes...?"

We? You mean the Upper West Side? Gawd, NYC is the most provincial town in America.

Can't stand her or her politics, but she does know how to dress.

Well .. I still suspect she disappeard just before the election to have another face job - because the "deer in the headlights" look is gone. And .. I don't recall her having that great a figure before .. so maybe a little boob job was added into the program ..??

I'm just guessing, but I just find it comical that the media is all GA GA over what she's wearing and how she looks.

So you're saying she's butter-faced?

RECENT plastic surgery!

Can we guess during the just passed election hiatus from congress? That's why she looks like a Chinaman now; her eye work hasn't quite settled in yet.

I suppose I would dress nicer also, if I was worth $160,000,000.

Maybe, but it does make her breasts look like they are hanging on her sides.
