I have to say Senator Dole is looking..

[Virginia Dare]

very well preserved these days. Hats off to her surgeon, I hardly recognize her anymore. Looking good Liddy, perhaps a run for V.P. next year?

[On the Road]

1. Looks Just Like a Happy Housefrau

[Warpy]

14. More like a typical Republic who really knows her place

but who has had to step outside it in order to force the rest of us into that place. What an admirable sacrifice she has made.

:sarcasm: for the slow.

Yes, she's had work done, nipping and tightening, collagen into upper lip and cheeks, "windswept" eyes. About all she can do in the future is her neck and under her chin, or she'll be turning Japanese (I really think so). Her hair is heavily dyed and the makeup was applied with a heavy hand.

She looks incredibly unnatural.

Makes me glad I decided to go to pot naturally. The years will write their passing on our bodies one way or another, and having somebody else's face trying to deny them seems like a weird way to live.

[Virginia Dare]

23. She's been a very useful tool..

that's why I wouldn't be surprised to see them drag her out for V.P., especially if Hillary Clinton is in for the nomination.

[On the Road]

49. I Hadn't Thought about That

but that could very well be. And if Obama is nominated, they'll pull out Powell, Rice, or another token black to be the VP nominee.

[SusanaMontana41]

35. lol!

:rofl:

[leftofthedial]

2. looks like a mask

[Supersedeas]

44. the joker

[blondeatlast]

3. The outer eye corner is a dead giveaway. Pickles has the same surgeon, I believe. nt

[Mz Pip]

4. She definitely

has that face in a wind tunnel look from too many face lifts. At that age 'perky' would not be what I would be going for.

Mz Pip
:dem:

[TwilightGardener]

She's got the tell-tale "faux-Asian" eyes and terminally-surprised expression.

Yep, she a nipper AND a tucker.

[mondo joe]

16. If her eyebrows were pulled back any further she could wipe her own ass with them. NT

[TwilightGardener]

22. OK, that was uncalled-for imagery...

:rofl:

[Beelzebud]

5. It takes a master leatherworker to tan a hide that well.

[Iris]

40. good one. n/t

[Spazito]

6. Geez, her face has been lifted so high, her eyebrows are really

just plucked and shaped pubic hair!

Looking good? Hardly!

[spanone]

7. God, that's frightening

[K8-EEE]

8. YIKES!!! I really don't get the eyebrow lift phenom

That's one frozen-faced woman there. Remember those Bob Dole viagra ads?? What a couple....blech!!

[K8-EEE]

10. When she crosses her legs, her mouth opens

old Joan Rivers joke!

[Virginia Dare]

12. One more face lift..

and the world is her gynecologist, old Ab Fab joke..:rofl:

[tridim]

17. But does she get "love" from her OBGYN?

[tridim]

18. I don't care what anybody says, Joan Rivers was hillarious in her day.

Unfortunately her day has long passed, and her daughter has no talent.

[0007]

62. Aiming Joan's old joke at that old hag is indeed funny....nt

[melody]

9. She looks like Cesar Romero

My apologies to the late Mr. Romero.

[K8-EEE]

11. Give To Caesar What Is Caesar's!

O...M...G....YOU'RE RIGHT!! Whe went into the doctor and asked for the Ceasar Romero special!

[mondo joe]

13. Why are all the GOP wives starting to look like actors in The Joker role?

Very curious!

[melody]

34. Maybe the new summer fashion theme is Batman villains? n/t

[K8-EEE]

36. The whole BushCo Admin. are batman villains! Cheney is penguin! n/t

[blondeatlast]

19. Oh, geez, you are correct!

:rofl:

[Virginia Dare]

21. Yes, she and Pickles are beginning to look like twins...

eerie, like how Julie Andrews and Carol Burnett ended up looking...

[Parche]

54. Cesar

Yes I can see the resemblence!! :rofl: :rofl: :hi:
Viagra as a face cream......good choice

[tridim]

15. It's a perfect Republican woman face..

Just like Nixon's head mused in Futurama..

"Ah yes, I remember MY body - pale, flabby, ...riddled with phlebitis ...a good republican body!"

[Donnachaidh]

20. wonder how much TAXPAYER money went into the face jobs?

After all, the medical care in washington is the BEST, right?

[zabet]

24. She looks like the clown from....

the cover of the Stephen King book "It".
Scaaaarrrryyyy!!!!:scared:

[K8-EEE]

38. You have a point....

He must have gone to the same surgeon!

[question everything]

25. Shame on you, and on others in this thread

would you have similar comments on a male senator?

Double standard is alive and well in DU.

What I would like to know is: has she accomplished anything as a Senator? Even from a Republican POV?

[K8-EEE]

27. If we make fun of Tommy Thomspon's hair does it make it all better?

She's a BushCo republican so that answers the part about her "accomplishments."

[Virginia Dare]

28. I have no problems bashing male Republicans as well as female..

if you want to start a thread on Liddy Dole's accomplishments, by all means do.

[flakey_foont]

29. she is my Senator

and she seems to be one of the more useless members of the Senate,,,,,,
plus, I've written to her a few times and not once received a reply
I wrote to John Edwards when he was in the Senate and received a personal reply

[leftchick]

46. mine too

between her and Burr (who takes more cash from big pharma than anyone) we are screwed.

[flakey_foont]

50. totally agree

what exactly does Dole do up in DC? I never hear her name mentioned.....I suppose she is just a loyal GOP foot soldier ...vote how they tell her

[question everything]

59. Makes sense, since even as a former "cabinet member"

she did not accomplish anything except... putting the brakes lights at the rear windows?

[mondo joe]

33. On a male? Like The Chimp?

You bet.

[Bluebear]

39. Double standard, please.

How many Mr. Clairol Strom Thurmond Moonlight Auburn #230B threads do you need to see?

[mondo joe]

43. To say nothing of Bush=Chimp, Fat Tony Scalia, Bush's pimp outfit, his socks,

McCain=Casper, and others.

[yy4me]

42. Never saw a real close-up of a male senator but if I have the

opportunity to check out any that seem to have a very unnatural physiognomy (gotta love that word, first time I ever had occasion to type it), I will be sure to comment. Severely arched and penciled eyebrows on a male senator should be a laugh, chipmunk cheeks? That would be worthy of a word or two.

I wonder if I should delete this?? I'm not usually catty but the way I feel about the bunch in Washington, it just feels good.

[question everything]

60. Remember how upset we were when Cheney had a comment

about Kerry's "tan," back in 2004?

Yes, it did look unnatural but we wanted to concentrate on the issues.

[yy4me]

63. Point well made.

[Hekate]

48. Actually I've been astonished at the number of bad comb-overs in the Senate!

I had a chance to sit in the gallery for an hour during the Bill Clinton impeachment process so I got a good look at the tops of a lot of Senatorial heads. They must use super-glue to keep those strands in place.

Hekate

[KamaAina]

64. Not to mention out-and-out rugs

Salon once actually counted up the number of Senatorial rugs, plugs, combovers, etc., and came up with an astonishing 21 out of (at the time) 91 male Senators, of which eight were full-on rugs.

http://archive.salon.com/people/feature/1999/11/22/toupees/index.html

Now to Congress. Availing myself of pictures I found on the Internet, I conducted my own survey of all the toupees, transplants, weaves and hair pieces in the United States Senate.

Out of our current 99 senators, I found 97, and took away for statistical purposes the nine women (to whom we'll return when we revisit the dye issue) as well as Ben Nighthorse Campbell (who enjoys a hair surplus). That left me with a base of 87, from which I've concluded that there are two transplants, eight hairpieces and the possibility of 12 additional variations on hair augmentation or enhancement in the Senate.

Sens. Joseph Biden, D-Del., and Strom Thurmond, R-S.C., are the transplant leaders. Thurmond, who was born in 1902, is at 97, probably entitled to all the plugs and brown hair and cosmetic surgery his heart desires. Just keep him away from foreign policy. William Roth, R-Del., has what must be the most egregious wig in the Senate, but you have to give him credit for at least going with gray, in keeping with his 78 years. Sen. Bob Smith, R-N.H., with his rugged movie star looks (well, he kind of looks like Wallace Beery), has the second worst toupee; although Sen. Daniel Akaka, D-Hawaii, looks like his is the one that covers the most territory.

[melody]

57. There have been thousands of similar threads about men

In fact, I see a lot more of these about men than women.

[yy4me]

26. Skin too tight, eyebrows too arched. Where do the surgeons

find these "looks" Do you open a photo book and say," I'll have those eyes, that chin, those cheeks etc. She should have aged gracefully, like most of us do. At least our wrinkles are real, we don't look waxy and taught.

Speaking of eyebrows, someone should advise Mrs. Pelosi to assess her startled deer-in-the-headlights brow arch. Now I'm just being catty, I know.

[1620rock]

30. She's still an old bag...they just stretched the bag.

[K8-EEE]

31. K&R....this thread is hilarious....n/t

[dweller]

32. aaaaccccccckkkkkkkk!

there goes lunch.


dp

[snooper2]

37. I think she's got the look...

[asjr]

41. Are those cheek implants or did

someone put crabapples in her face?

[Hekate]

45. Now that is just strange.Weird.Scary.I don't think I ever want to do that,thank you.

She really does look like Laura B's sister now.

Hekate

[moondust]

47. Don't stand too close to the fire, Liddy.

:evilgrin:

[Bluebear]

51. At least now when she & Laura converse they both look constantly interested

They both have the perpetual "you don't say!!!" look courtesy of the knife.

[Vinca]

52. Apparently Liddy's going for the space alien look. nt

[valerief]

53. A surprise birthday party every minute of day for this Dole-Money-Into-My-Wallet. nt

[Blackhatjack]

55. Her poll numbers are not that good in NC, but she has a boatload of money to spend...

That appears to the be the problem in getting a top-line Democrat to oppose her.

Some political strategists here in NC predict that it will take approximately $3 mil to run against her, and many Dems have been shy about jumping in because the 2008 presidential race and other races are already draining contributors' pockets.

IMHO she is now the most vulnerable as compared with any other time she has held the Senate seat.

What we need is another 'John Edwards' to step up and take her on, like he did with incumbent Repub Lauch Faircloth. If they don't come forward, they will miss a golden opportunity.

[damntexdem]

56. Is it the result of her hubbie's Viagra?

Or does she just have the usual GOP deal with the Devil?

[kskiska]

58. Maybe they had a "Buy One Get One Free" deal

Remember, her husband had a face lift immediately after he lost to Clinton. His face was tight as a drum for a while. Looks like he's had some tucks since, too.

[Javaman]

61. If she had anymore of a face life she would have a flesh knot on the top of her head. nt
