Palin a 'disgrace to women' - Bardot

From correspondents in Paris

October 08, 2008 04:22am Article from: Agence France-Presse

FRENCH film star-turned-activist Brigitte Bardot took a swipe at Sarah Palin today, saying the US vice presidential candidate was a disgrace to women.

"I hope you lose these elections because that would be a victory for the world," Bardot wrote in an open letter to Republican John McCain's running mate in the November vote.

"By denying the responsibility of man in global warming, by advocating gun rights and making statements that are disconcertingly stupid, you are a disgrace to women and you alone represent a terrible threat, a true environmental catastrophe," wrote Bardot.

The screen icon from the 1960s, who now heads an animal rights foundation, went on to assail Gov Palin for supporting Arctic oil exploration that could jeopardise delicate animal habitats and for dismissing measures to protect polar bears.

"This shows your total lack of responsibility, your inability to protect or simply respect animal life," Bardot wrote.

I always felt for Bardot when the anti-free speech zealots in Europe were after her. Now, they can lock her in jail and throw away the key for all I care.

Brilliant ! Sheer genius ! --- but seemingly limited only to when she speaks out on immigration.

If she lost about 60 lbs., cut her hair and colored it, she would look fine for a woman her age. It doesn’t take cosmetic surgery. That straggly, frizzy grey mess around her mug is hardly beautifying.

But if she lost weight, all the skin on her face would fall even further. And that would be even more unpleasant.

That could imply that a McCain/Palin win would be a victory for America.

Interesting.

There's a show on cable this evening...Shalako

It's a better than average western with Sean Connery and Bardot. It just shows to go you it really doesn't require intellegence to be an actress. There probably isn't any harm in having half a brain, but it isn't a prerequisite.

Bardot has only one thing going for her:

A personal Vagina Monologue.

And she won't let IT talk.

Wonder why?

It could be Ms. Bardot has a little too much on her mind, lately.

WESTERN RESISTANCE.com - blog: "FRANCE: BARDOT FINED FOR MUSLIM COMMENTS" (June 3, 2008)

WESTERN RESISTANCE.com: "FRANCE: BARDOT'S MUSLIM COMMENTS PROSECUTED AS RACIST" (April 15, 2008)

...Just a thought.
