48. Her eyes are misaligned in more ways than one.
Tue Feb 7, 2023, 03:33 PM
Feb 2023

If you look closely, you can see that her right eye seems to be looking straight ahead, while the other eye is turned slightly to the left. I noticed it when she was doing press briefings for Trump, and once I became aware of it, I couldn't not see it.

What baffles me is that this condition (strabismus) is surgically correctable, at any age. My sister in law (who was 20 years older than me) had an eye that was turned in to an extreme degree. She had surgery when she was in her 50s, and no one who saw her for the first time afterwards would have ever guessed there had been anything wrong with it.

Every time I see Sanders, I mentally side eye her parents for not having it taken care of properly when she was a child. In my sil's case, I don't think they knew how to treat it properly yet (she grew up in the 1930s), but the Huckabees don't have that excuse.

71. Amblyopia and strabismus are closely related.
Tue Feb 7, 2023, 10:04 PM
Feb 2023
https://www.seevividly.com/blog/177/What_is_the_difference_between_Amblyopia_and_Strabismus
Very simply, Strabismus, the medical term for "crossed-eye", is a problem with eye alignment, in which both eyes do not look at the same place at the same time. Amblyopia, the medical term for "lazy-eye", is a problem with visual acuity, or eyesight. Many people make the mistake of saying that a person who has a crossed or turned eye (strabismus) has a "lazy-eye," but lazy-eye (amblyopia) and strabismus are not the same condition.

Both conditions are highly treatable and are usually diagnosed and corrected in early childhood, which is why it's rare to see an adult with eyes as noticeably misaligned as Sarah's.

is NO HORIZONTAL STRIPES!!!

You might as well be wearing a sandwich board with “Wide Load” printed on it.

I was a chubby kid - and I’ve had to count calories all my life. And one of the first things I learned, way early, was strategic dressing to emphasize the vertical and minimize the horizontal. Encourage the eye away from how broad your middle is. Vertical lines ONLY. You want to imply length, NOT width. P

And bright colors and pastels are NOT your friends. All they do is scream for attention. Why not just cut to the chase and wear a neon sign?

A friend had a job in Macy's and did the looking for me, just bringing me things to try on. Looked a lot better than what I would have picked. Sarah needs that kind of help.

So does the GOP think that Sarah Huckabee is their next rising star?

We've all seen what happened to up-and-coming republicans who have given the State of the Union response in the past. It seems to be a career ending experience for many. In Sarah's case, it couldn't happen to a more deserving politician.

Seems that's why they chose her to respond to Joe Bidens SOTU speech, in which he will try to describe the state of the real world. Not to mention that no other Republican was willing to take on "The Response" job.

And regarding Huckabee's inability to deal with truth, below is a link to a short article on Rachel Maddow's blog that was posted this morning.
