It's funny how her photos always have her looking like a shrill wack-a-doodle.

That is how right wing propaganda typically works. They do the same thing with Pelosi and Hillary.

Yup

[Zoupa]

I find her quite hot

Not disputing that. I agree.

[HVC]

Hot but in a you better not date her if you own pets kind of way

[Zoupa]

No, just hot. Women in powerful positions really freaks some of you guys out doesn't it.

Everyone does it.  It's not a right/left thing.

Honestly, derspeiss aside I think it's more that she's challenging the established order. They treat Sanders much the same way.

Ah ok. Didn't see the previous posts my bad.

She's attractive, in spite of the weird pyramid shaped nose.

Yes, plenty of websites use the least flattering pictures of Trump possible.

Though I would argue there is a qualitative difference when it is being done to those in power, vs to those who are not.

[garbon]

Where are flattering pics of him?

I think she is great.   It is very impressive that in her first few weeks in office she has moved the climate and taxation debate to the extent that she has become a fixation for the right, a constant reference in the Economist and even effective at shaping the issues being taken up with the democratic presidential hopefuls. She knows how do politics in an age of social media.

Besides, American social policy is horribly broken.  How many Americans can continue to defend a system that spends the most for mediocre at best results continues to be mystifying.

Fear mostly. Ideology. An ignorant belief that our system is the best in the world.

Edit: Well actually I think most people do want to reform the system they just have opposite views on what should be done.

The bold part has a lot to do with it, I think.  American politicians, of any stripe, are continually appealing to American exceptionalism.  Americans tell themselves they are the most free, the most democratic, the best of... well everything.  It is hard to think your country needs to improve certain aspects when you are continually bombarded with a message that you live in the best place in the world.
