2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWhy is Bernie Sander's hand on model Anne V's ass
at the White House Correspondent's Dinner? The photo below was posted from that event on another thread, and has been turned into some kind of Sanders campaign collateral material:
So, I wondered who the woman was. I discovered who, after a brief search. It's supermodel Anne V (Anne Vyalitsyna). She was at the dinner, as a guest of someone, I suppose. In fact, here's a photo of her there on the red carpet:
So, what's Bernie doing playing grab-ass with a supermodel at that event? Seems a little creepy to me, really. Now, I'm a little envious of Bernie, you understand, but I can't figure out why someone would think that's a great image of the candidate, really.
Curious, huh?

(20,176 posts)but, no, that doesn't work.
1.) You generally end up with a sleazier looking photo, as she's leaning in closer to him...not only would your hand be more-directly on her ass, her boob would be pressed against you slightly.
2.) It's not all that comfortable, as you would turn back from the hip as the person leaned into you, which makes for an awkward way of standing.
3.) It would be worse if his hand was on bare skin. Normally, you'd put the arm on the side...but there's a cut-out there. Shoulder doesn't work either. That's literally the best place for him to have put his hand...on her hip.
Chan790, takes pictures with lots of random women...I don't know what it is, women of my generation like to capture first dates in selfies. Other than the date that grabbed my hand and put it on her boob as she made a shocked face, I try to be conscious of where my hands are as to not be sexually-presumptuous on early dates.

However, I'm not reading too much into it. The photographer probably kept admonishing them to get in close.
But if I were his campaign advisor, I'd tell him to do it your way.
A Simple Game
(9,214 posts)His hand should be pawing through the filth in the gutter looking for his mind so he could remove it from the slime. Why do Conservatives always sink to the lowest levels of discourse?
What a harmless photo, politicians have those taken every day and he knows that. As for his hand being on her butt? She doesn't even have a butt.

(62,444 posts)In order to do a side hug with someone in that dress, then you have to make a quick decision between your hand on bare skin, or the best-covered region of hip one can find.

(16,950 posts)was a little bit of kidding...? I was kidding, anyway. Sort of. This is how ridiculous the glib, never-ending anti-Hillary "concerns" sound, so why not put the shoe on the other foot, so to speak.
Bernie's one-size-fits-all lingo about EVIL corporations is so trite and meaningless with its tiresome repetition, that his corporate shoes just jumped out of the picture as proof of the phoniness of it all. New Balance doesn't make everything in the U.S. And they are worth billions. Of course, all corporations and billionaires that Bernie wears or likes are A-Okay..., lol.
I thought you were going to put me on ignore. "Full" ignore. Oh well, glad you didn't. Hang in there!

Hang/yourself.
R B Garr
(16,950 posts)And look at more of this pathetic phoniness. Bernie himself does nothing but whine and moan about CORORATIONS and how evil they are. But God Forbid someone points out a corporate logo he's wearing.
And Hillary doesn't present herself as a morally righteous phony. But it figures your only response is to try and bring her into it. Good Lord.

CincyDem
(6,355 posts)And it goes both ways.
The only time I've ever been grab assed was at a black tie symphony opening about 20 years ago. Two women walked past, I got grabbed, they kept moving on giggling. I think it was a contest between them and they seemed to have having a harmless good time around the room. lol
And you're right, it is pretty funny, especially in today's world of the ubiquitous cell phone cam.

Sadly the photo cuts off the location of his other hand - but with your worldview, and the angle of his arm - what do you think?
And their "chest areas" (don't want to offend your tender sensibilities by being any more specific!) are actually touching. This is a much more intimate pose than the one of Bernie which has you all kerfluffled!

(15,480 posts)The taxpayer watchdog group Judicial Watch announced Tuesday that it filed suit for the costs of U.S. Secret Service protection of former President Bill Clinton when he rode on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's private jet, dubbed the "Lolita Express."
The group filed suit after the Department of Homeland Security failed to comply with a prior Freedom of Information Act request from earlier this year.
According to news reports, the former president took several flights on the jet to the Epstein's island, and at least on one was accompanied by "4 secret service," according to a flight logbook first reported on by Gawker.com.

Flight logs on pedophile Jeffrey Epsteins private jet puts Bill Clinton sharing a ride with a pornstar, as well as a woman who procured underage hookers for the billionaire.
Bill Clinton has been snared in the Jeffrey Epstein pedophile sex scandal. Flight logs from Epsteins private jet, dubbed the Lolita Express, showed Clinton to be a frequent flyer along with a madame who allegedly hooked up Epstein with underage girls.
Clinton allegedly was on board at least a dozen flights with a woman whom federal prosecutors believe procured underage girls to sexually service Epstein and his friends, according to Gawker, which unearthed the flight logs.
Among other names unearthed in the flight logs are former Treasury Secretary and Harvard president Larry Summers, supermodel Naomi Campbell and scientist Stephen Pinker, according to Gawker.
If Clinton had sexual relations with an underage girl he could face severe penalties, even if the sex act took place outside the United States.

Really gross to characterize this as grab-ass, and really not fair to use this woman as a prop for your trolling.

I don't like Bernie. But we're winning this thing; no reason to resort to this sort of tawdry innuendo. Let's keep it classy.

(854 posts)So let me get this right: Bernie with his arms around a supporter = Hillarians get the vapors.
Bill masturbates an intern with a cigar in the Oval Office, gets a blowjob from that intern then lies about it under oath = nothing to see here???
Ok then. Carry on with that outrage, brave political warriors. Your cause is righteous.

IMO unfairly sexualizing an otherwise harmless moment is pretty creepy too.

(50,269 posts)let's face it, that's all the back of the dress is. If you guys are suddenly going all prude, you'd better lay in the tranquilizers for the general election. There is about to be another "bimbo eruption" (Hillary's words, not mine).

Youtube and yahoo have more intelligent commentary.
Not much hope for this place after this convention..... I don't think.

There is much to criticize Bernie for, but this ain't it.

Seriously, this is where your mind roams, to smutty innuendo? That's the level of political discourse you're bring to the DU table these days?

(1,166 posts)when she put her arm around him for a photo? I imagine you believe that Clinton already has the nomination all sewn up. If that's the case, what's the point of this post?

Talk about sexism, the sight of a woman is all it takes to make some people have 'grab ass' fantasies.

Why is Bernie Sander's hand on model Anne V's ass
at the White House Correspondent's Dinner? The photo below was posted from that event on another thread, and has been turned into some kind of Sanders campaign collateral material:
So, I wondered who the woman was. I discovered who, after a brief search. It's supermodel Anne V (Anne Vyalitsyna). She was at the dinner, as a guest of someone, I suppose. In fact, here's a photo of her there on the red carpet:
So, what's Bernie doing playing grab-ass with a supermodel at that event? Seems a little creepy to me, really. Now, I'm a little envious of Bernie, you understand, but I can't figure out why someone would think that's a great image of the candidate, really.
Curious, huh?
