Candi CROWley says Democrats are " Broken"

[goclark]

Did you see that fat piece of crap do her dirt just now?

I can not stand that scum of the earth ~ she is interviewing " Rethug plants" on the street that are all saying Democrats don't have a plan, are stupid, and on and on...

Am I the only one that saw her do this trash? :puke:

[Obamarama]

1. Even if that WERE true (and it isn't)....

You can fix "broken", you ignorant cow.....but you can't fix UGLY. God know's that GOP whore is proof of that.

[Missy Vixen]

31. Wow, what's her crime?

>You can fix "broken", you ignorant cow.....but you can't fix UGLY.<

Did she disagree with you, or are ugly women not allowed to walk the same earth and breathe the same air?

Julie

[bobbolink]

40. Exactly, Julie!! I"m so tired of the sexism here! *THAT'S* what's

BROKEN!

[ThomCat]

63. Excellent post!

:applause:

Say it, Julie!

[Obamarama]

65. Oh please....give it a rest.

FYI, I was referring to the ugliness that comes from inside, and based on that standard, the bitch is truly one ugly lady. YOU were the one who jumped to conclusions and thought I was referring to her outward appearance.

[EvangelOphileBlican]

44. I think thats Dennis Hastert in drag, don't let um fool ya. n/t

3. What does her weight have to do with it? n/t

[w13rd0]

6. Pound for pound....

...she's got a higher ratio of headfat than most "journalists" who aren't already employed at Faux Newz, regardless her weight issues. I for one don't hate her because of her weight, it's just that for many, evidenced herein, the weight is an easy target for insult when she does things singularly stupid, which is frequently. I do concur though, insult her for being a fatHEAD, not for being overweight.

[Judi Lynn]

29. She has been Bush's behemoth love slave since the Presidential campaign of 2000.

She startled and dismayed audiences keenly on election night 2000 with her appallingly devoted, utterly conspicuous, emotional attachment to him, and her rumbling rancor and suspicion Al Gore might try something sneaky to steal the election away from him.

Many people sensed she wasn't quite all right all those years ago!

[Reciprocity]

49. I totally agree with your assessment.

Her weight is an easy target, however politically incorrect it my be. I have called her far worse than fat.

[Iris]

7. Nothing, but you will see a lot of this sort of thoughtless misogyny on DU.

But welcome, anyway! And thanks for chiming in on the weight thing!

:toast:

[RandiFan1290]

12. Exactly right

We're only allowed to make fun of fat men around here, like Rush. Women are off limits.

:eyes:

[rzemanfl]

16. From your keyboard to God's monitor. n/t

[American Jesus]

43. God has read this thread, of that you can be sure.

And His message to you, His children is this: Worry not about the fullness of Candy Crowley's body, but rather the emptiness of her head. Same goes for Limbaugh.

Thus sayeth My Dad.

[jobycom]

20. Shouldn't comment on Rush's size, either. It implies that our real problem

with him is his appearance, rather than his ideology. Cheapens the debate, and insults anyone else who might have similar weights, even if their ideology is perfect.

Not that I haven't slipped up from time to time. It's easy to do. Being good is more difficult, but it doesn't mean we shouldn't try.

[RandiFan1290]

30. Of course you are right

It's just that I only see this concern manifest itself in the fat women threads. I didn't think it had anything to do with misogyny.

[Missy Vixen]

32. I spoke up in one of the "Limbaugh is fat and ugly" threads

I don't care for the man, and I never will. At the same time, I'm a little tired of reading the constant "we can say whatever we want" refrain, when the same people here are OUTRAGED!!!!!111!!!!! when someone on FR makes an insulting comment about someone they like's appearance.

I also think it's amusing that those parties must explain their obvious dislike and bigotry towards anyone who's not physically perfect.

Julie

[Vorta]

21. I would have asked the same thing if the remark had been made about Limbaugh or Hastert n/t

[Dr.Phool]

23. I'm a fat guy!

Lemme have it!

[bunkerbuster1]

27. I figure if I make 50 "Fatass Hastert" comments

... well, to be honest, I probably still wouldn't make a nasty comment about a prominent woman's weight. Women have to put up with so much shit about their bodies from the stupider sex (that'd be mine) that I'm willing to cut 'em some slack here.

[goclark]

28. I'm the pleasing plump poster

and she is scum of the fat earth to me. :puke:

[Cha]

53. Don't forget that

that slobbering denny bastert. ;)

[Zomby Woof]

15. Not true

We just love to slam obese Republicans. Dennis Hastert, Lou Dobbs, and Rush Limbaugh also bear the brunt of weight slurs. So actually, the fat men outweigh (pun intended) the fat women by a 3-1 ratio.

[KalicoKitty]

24. Lou Dobbs????

Haven't you heard how he bashes Bush & Company?

[Zomby Woof]

25. Sometimes he defends them

He creamed his pants over Bush signing that wall into law. But my point was not so much what are his leanings, but that he has been slammed here based on his weight, especially over his immigration views.

[leftchick]

22. how is it misogyny?

rush limbaugh is regularly referred to as a fat ass around here. Equal opportunity insults.

[Iris]

37. Ok. So men who are fat get poked at but with women, it's too fat, too thin,

too mannish, whatever.. .

[libodem]

33. I don't see 'a lot' of misogyny on DU

if this place is so sexist post in a women friendly environment

[Iris]

36. you're blind.

And I would expect this to be a woman friendly environment

[Cha]

54. I don't see any misogyny

around here. Maybe that's just me. I think we're equal opportunity fascist bashers. IMO, it has nothing to do with sex, race, or who you like to go out with :)

[mitchtv]

38. Besides, If you Really Hate her

you will call her Gay
that's the DU way

[davidinalameda]

57. you're so bad

:rofl:

[readmoreoften]

59. Yes. She's probably a lesbian. She's unattractive.

Oh wait, lesbians are uberhot porn stars. I totally forgot. :sarcasm:

I don't give a shit how fat, thin, bald, or handsome a sociopath is. I just want them out of office.

[DURHAM D]

10. The weight thing maybe should be left out. However, I

think in our culture when someone who is ugly/fat/mean/etc. speaks with that sort of arrogance, that sort of "all knowing" attitude, we react to the bullying with pure gut level anger.

It Candy's case there actually seems to be a relationship between her weight and her attitude. Go back to her earlier thinner years - she was not nearly so snarky. She needs to work on her problem if she wants to be a legitimate reporter again. The Dems are not the ones making her fat.

[Cha]

55. Wow, candi wasn't always

so bloated with hate for us Dems?

I only first saw her in 2000 and could not believe what I was hearing spewing forth from her fascist face.

[rzemanfl]

13. I think it was my thoughtless misogynist post you meant to reply

to. It is okay here to call men fat stupid pricks, but I should be more sensitive. Welcome to DU.

[jobycom]

14. Nothing at all, and thanks for pointing it out. nt

[NoPasaran]

18. It's how we distinguish her from Coultergiest

[still_one]

19. I have never understood why people who disagree with people

tend to dehumanize, and poke fun at physicial characteristics, rather than critisize them on ideas

why do we have to lower ourseleves to the level of the republican machinary?

[Iris]

4. and what would you call the Republican party?

I'd say shattered into a million pieces.

[Warpy]

5. Fatso will need a new job along with her drug addled puffball

male equivalent once we get the Fairness Doctrine reinstated, hopefully this time as a constitutional amendment.

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

8. It's weird.

I remember her when she was on NPR and she was a good reporter. I am really surprised that CNN hasn't brought her up short. Then again, I'm not.

She is much more appropriate for frothing right-wing blogging these days.

[Double T]

9. Candi is one very annoying rethugliCON shill........

and about as objective as a RW neocon.

[Old and In the Way]

11. Wonder why not "word association" about Republicans?

Notice how difficult it was to get a one word response to that? I'd like to have seen the same for the R's. Wanna bet "criminal" would have been the most popular term?

Thanks for another hack, Candi.

[NNN0LHI]

17. I would rather have Creepy Crowley on the Republicans side than ours n/t

[sandnsea]

26. Hey

That's what happens when the party won't stand together.

[otohara]

34. Wikipedia Say's Candy is a Strong Supporter of GOP

Magda "Candy" Crowley is a CNN political correspondent, specializing in U.S. presidential, gubernatorial, and Senate elections. Occasionally, she would host Inside Politics in place of Judy Woodruff before the show was replaced with The Situation Room. She is based in CNN's Washington bureau. She graduated from Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, Virginia. She is a self-professed strong supporter of the Republican party, notorious in Democratic circles for having cried on air when Democratic candidate, Al Gore, initially appeared to have won the 2000 presidential election

edited to add link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candy_Crowley

Candy Crowley is the main reason I won't watch any CNN.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

39. Is she really a "self-professed" supporter?

Because you'd assume saying something like that in public would exclude her from reporting on them......

[Catherine Vincent]

41. I'm sure she is.

Her brother works for the republican party. The republican shill is as republican as they come

[Neecy]

42. wait....

Is her first name *really* Magda? Oh, the fun we could have with that.

Saw her smear piece, btw, and as a lifelong Democrat I have to say I recognized very little of my party in it. Almost the entire hour was comprised of GOP talking points - worthless in the extreme.

[JitterbugPerfume]

35. It has nothing to do with her looks,

and most certainly not her weight.

fact is , she is a bi##ch.

[PCIntern]

47. Beauty is only skin deep,

but in this case the ugliness goes right to the core.

[Swede]

45. She seemed uncomfortable when CNN assigned her the job as

correspondent on the Democart episode of Broken Governement. She rolled her eyes and said CNN's higher ups gave her this job.

[blitzen]

46. she also says Dems are "wussies"

she has lots of journalistic integrity

[stepnw1f]

48. She Has no Professionalism

She is just a propagandist trying to "catapult" the propaganda to influence public opinion.

[GCP]

50. Is she any relation to Monica Crowley?

The seriously deluded Coulter wannabe that spouts shit from the radio on Saturdays?

[LibertyorDeath]

58. more likely Aleister

[goclark]

60. Good question, they sure have that same evil stripe nt

[AtomicKitten]

51. Feh.

She is suffering from Inflated Talking Head Syndrome.

[mykpart]

52. What do Candy Crowley and Rush Limbaugh have in common?

They are both big fat idiots.

[MzNov]

56. I saw this garbage this morning!!! CNN is a pile of crap.

Jack Cafferty was in on it too. Under their pictures was the screaming "BROKEN DEMOCRATS"

What a bunch of @##$$%%%$. It also said "Spineless" "Broken" Democrats. I wanted to put my foot through the TV. I would have but it wasn't mine.

Let's Landslide!
:bounce:

:dem:

[spanone]

61. Miss Piggy Hates Democrats.

[Mr_Spock]

62. What is her problem?

She didn't start out so bad - WTF turned her into a mean spirited seemingly anti-Democrat troll?

[Raine]

64. I'll be looking forward to her comments

about the 'broken Democrats' after they clean the reTHUGs clock on Tuesday. :evilgrin:

[Halliburton]

66. damn fat ass

the female version of rush limbaugh

[Jamastiene]

67. I don't like Candi Crowley any more than anyone else around here, but

weight is nothing to point out. Scum of the earth is fitting and piece of crap is fitting, but her weight has nothing to do with it.
