1. Uglier than, say, Bay Buchannan? |
|
Bay Buchannan is as beautiful inside as she is on the outside.

4. They say it is what is on the inside that counts. |
|
In her case, it is equally the same.

9. Thanks for yet another reminder for the women on DU |
|
That being female equals always being judged on our looks.
We don't get near enough of that in our lives, as I'm sure you are aware.

5. Her problem isn't her looks, it's the dumb shit she says. |
|
While it's true that she's a bit on the chunky side, I wouldn't have any problem watching her if she'd just pull her head out of her large ass. I change the channel when she appears because she's so full of crap, not because of her looks.

11. If vicitms of Parkinsons disease are fair game |
|
then a morbidly obese bloatmeister like Crowley is also. BTW, why all the crowley threads all of a sudden? Has CNN trotted her out for a little pre election repub fellatio again?

in past few minutes talking about a woman's looks. I can think of plenty of male journalists who are unattractive but it's not a worthwhile topic of discussion especially just 2 weeks away from an important election. I think we have more important issues to talk about...

Absolutely. After all, everyone else is responsible for the GOTV efforts, aren't they?

20. You're right about one thing. ....... |
|
Looks shouldn't count, and........
I've been guilty at times of doing the same thing, holding judgement on people's looks from birthright, then I look in the mirror and remember that I didn't choose how I look, I didn't choose the length of my nose, my ears, or my eye color...
and then I begin to recognize the things I can change, my health, my body, my mind...including my own tendency to judge others based soley on physical appearances, and work on changing THOSE things...
and if I can't change those things I try to search deeper in myself and others for a redeeming quality.
To release judgement is to free oneself from the bondage OF that judgement.

31. Candy Crowley is UGLY on the INSIDE. |
|
And that makes her UGLY on the OUTSIDE as well.
There are heavy people who are a joy to know. Their weight is not a consideration, you love them just the same. (Perhaps you secretly wish they'd lose a few pounds for their own well being, because you'd like for them to be around in the years to come.)
Mama Cass Elliot was such a person.
Candy Crowley is not.

35. It's hard to deal with her constant hostility toward Dems |
|
Obviously, the easiest way to lash out at her unfair, biased, sneering coverage of Democrats is to poke fun at her weight. It's easy to type something along the lines of "Hey, Crowley looks like she needs to take a 300-pound shit" but that's really missing the point.
What we SHOULD be doing is flooding CNN with complaints about having her - AGAIN - covering Democratic candidates when she's shown in abundance how she's unable to hide her partisan hatred of all things D. Yes, CNN has ignored our complaints in the past, but we still need to express our outrage, freely and often.
