Lauren Boebert holding up a “hottest woman in Congress” award.

The certificate spelled her name incorrectly and came with a Red Lobster gift card.

She's all about appearances, and nothing about actual accomplishments. Granted, she has no real accomplishments to brag about.

...if I were to put on my basic brained, "00s Harvard Mark Zuckerberg" hat for just a second, I would actually go with California Congresswoman Sarah Jacobs even moreso than AOC.



Of course, both Congresswomen Jacobs and Ocasio-Cortez qualify as "women of accomplishment."

Lauren Boebert does not.

"women of accomplishment."

BTW in "hot congresspersons" I like the brain on Chrissy Houlahan

Stanford University (BS)
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MS)

BTW our talent pool in smart congress critters goes way deep and none of them had to drop out of high school
in 11th grade after getting pregnant too.

End of story. And at the end of the day we are sexual beings.

Not in a grotesque manner. But, the OP has a photo of Lauren Boebert holding up a "hottest woman in Congress" award. Your reply contradicts that by by showing a cheesecake photo and smoky-eye photo of AOC instead.

Your comment was "The "hottest woman in Congress" Please" Obviously, taken in context and observed as a whole... the underlying message is something along the lines of Oh, please... Boebert isn't hot, but here's someone who actually is hot.

I'm not really sure how else it could be interpreted. --- Truthfully, I have no problems at all in laughing at and ridiculing someone like Boebert who wants to do stupid things like boasting about being "hot". But holding up one of our own as an alternative (or genuine example) of someone who's "hot" ... well... no.

Bribery, illegal contribution, failing to report a gift or donation.

Something.

Just a hunch, no proof.

They also left off a word. Shouldn’t that be “hottest-HEADED woman in Congress”? And even there you run into serious competition for the prize, since Marjorie Greene and Elise Stefanik still have their seats.

Arvid Engen from Head of the Class. Which isn’t to say Dan Frischman wasn’t a good looking guy when he had a different wardrobe and hairstyle.

PS. I don’t think she’ll like Red Lobster. No armed waitresses like Shooters Grill.

A grown woman proudly displays of her faux award (and Red Lobster gift certificate).

So adolescent.

In fact, Boebe(a)rt puts adolescents to shame. What a feat!

If someone gave me a certificate for being the hottest person at my workplace, I’d probably laugh uncomfortably and toss it in the garbage at the first opportunity. Let’s make it clear: I am definitely not hot. But I wouldn’t want my value at the workplace diminished to that. I don’t know how women deal with that crap and remain sane. I also can’t imagine being dimwitted enough to find that flattering.
