Not my fault Republicans: K. Harris blames doctored photos for bad image
Katherine Harris has a new reason why people didn't like her: Apparently newspapers colorized her makeup to make her look more extreme.

snip:
On Monday, on a conservative radio talk show, Harris, now a congresswoman from Longboat Key running for the U.S. Senate, hit back, blaming newspapers for the criticism and charging that some - without saying which - altered her photographs.

``I'm actually very sensitive about those things, and it's personally painful,'' Harris said when host Sean Hannity asked about her image problems from 2000.

``But they're outrageously false, No. 1, and No. 2, you know, whenever they made fun of my makeup, it was because the newspapers colorized my photograph,'' Harris said.

She didn't explain what she meant by ``colorized.''

Asked Tuesday to point to an altered photograph, Harris and her staff could not.

30. I am sure that no one here has ever seen while she is relaxing at home...
I have heard that some people have said she does have 8 teats and walks around on fours when no one is watching...

Nobody needed to doctor her photos. She always looked like Tammy Faye on crystal meth.

15. What doctoring? The woman had no clue how to put on makeup!
Edited on Wed Aug-03-05 01:34 PM by Walt Starr
See the evidence for yourself:













Then they went into "makeover mode" because she wanted to run for congress and somebody actually taught her how to put on makeup and not look like a clown:

28. Walt, you commie bastard, she's just being patriotic!


I mean, look:

Bright red blusher
Bright white bleached teeth
Bright blue eyeshadow

But you're right, eye makeup isn't SUPPOSED to go on the sides of your nose!

18. NO! They just don't want to be hung with you in the Cunningham/MZM mess!
Folks investigating them will follow the money to you! They don't like that MZM likes you so much! Won't look good for them if they stand up for you!

24. Tangential Funny story
I was in a casino in Dec 2000. Someone started causing a problem at a blackjack table and the dealer called over one of the pit bosses. The pit boss was very professional, but when genius boy who started the altercation told her that she looked like Katherine Harris there was a moment of silence after which she had him kicked out by security so fast it defied belief.

Beauty is only skin deep but ugly is to the bone.
