In reply to the discussion: Kirsten Sinema does not appear to be a serious legislator [View all]Hekate
(100,133 posts)79. Look around the room and you'll spot the serious legislators of both parties. Take notes...
How you dress actually says something about you and about your attitude toward the occasion, whatever that may be. Mostly they dress as if for an executive job.
Would you wear sweaty gym clothes to a wedding? Gee, why not? After all, Ted Cruz recently showed up in his to take a Senate vote.
Adolescents want to go on about being genuine and expressing themselves, yadda yadda, but eventually most of them grow out of it when they get a job. Kirsten is more than a little too old for this nonsense, especially that big flashy ring she wore on a trip home this year, the one that said FUCK YOU in big letters. That registered with me on the same scale as the khaki jacket that said I Dont Really Care, Do U? on the back.

Most of the time she dresses like she's going to a picnic, not to a congressional chamber.

In 5th grade, I had a pair of white go-go boots & I felt like a rock star when I wore them!

Yes, unique in her being a rare Democrat that gave Trump a standing ovation.

I think he's telling us the Sinema uses her "sexuality" to serve her own self interest.

What I'm hearing is that he's judgemental and a poor ally. Why is "sexuality" in quotes?

In what way is *she* blocking a bill that has never been introduced on the floor?

Oh you are playing the "if it hasn't been voted on it's not blocked" game to cover for those two.

"Ally" means someone who is not a member of the community. I was correcting you.

If she thinks *that* getup is sexy she's seriously confused - but I doubt that's it.

I think men or women in their 40's who constantly posts gifs or smileys is worse than that.
