Mary Landrieu calls latest attack ad against her sexist
NOLA.com ^

Posted on 11/17/2014 5:07:02 PM PST by TigerClaws

Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu is denouncing an attack ad against her as being sexist because it shows her aging.

The ad, paid for by the Ending Spending Action Fund, suggests Washington has changed Landrieu, 58, over time and uses the age progression to illustrate that change.

Landrieu campaign spokesperson Fabien Levy called the ad "appalling." He said it's an example of Republican challenger Rep. Bill Cassidy and his allies distracting from the issues.

"It is appalling that Congressman Cassidy and his allies would illustrate the senator's age progression with a leading phrase that Washington has 'changed' her," Levy said. "The ad is as classless as it is sexist, and Congressman Cassidy and his allies should remove [it] from television immediately."

showing someone’s face aging isn’t sexist.

Have you seen miss Mary Piggy, crawling in the dirt, and if you vote for Mary Piggy, your brain and soul would hurt, clutching for her seat, to save her bacon.

Time is sexist for aging her. Food is sexist for going in her mouth. Mirrors are sexist.

Why doesn’t this dried-up, old-hag, criminal degenerate STFU. She’s older, she’s fatter...and she’s dumber (if that is possible) than she was. The progression is continuing hourly.

I’m confused: At exactly what point do professional women, who spend soooo much time and money on improving their looks, want us to forget about their looks and pretend looks are irrelevant— when they’re old and ugly?

I lost my copy of The Feminist Rule Book...

Landfills don’t have sexuality. Neither does Mary. Looks like a landfill, Bayou-style. Gator bait. Baby Beluga. Orca-junior.

What a crybaby! Even Huey Long won’t have nailed her.

They should show quick scenes from a demolition derby and say that it’s time to trade her in for a new model.

Great ad....but it’s funny how they ignore the meat of the ad that outs her corruption.

Oh, and I suppose if they show a clip of her eating with her mouth open, as she does, is sexist also, right?
