Katherine Harris's Polarizing Figure

kharris_hc.jpg


We're positive that it wasn't mere coincidence that Rep. Katherine Harris' (R-FL) perky breasts were prominently featured in a 6 minute segment earlier this week on Hannity and Colmes. If you watch the video (available at Crooks and Liars) it's impossible not to notice how prominently her boobs are featured in her profile shot. While a Fox News PA, or the camera person, was probably responsible for making sure the H&C gabfest got Harris's best side, her swaying and chest jutting (whether intentional or not) certainly indicate she knows how to "work it."

The former Florida Secretary of State's assets are hardly a secret. Last year Drudge featured the picture below...


Love her or hate her, Harris is giving new meaning to the term polarizing figure...

-S-:

Argh...surefire giveaway that Harris is posing on that horse: her toes are down, something anyone with any familiarity, much less skill, in equestrianism would ever do.

I watched that FOX appearance and wondered about that posing, given that every time Harris started to turn from the initial struck pose (with breasts featured) she seemed to be responding to some directive and would jerk back into stance. I think she should try to dampen the sexual connotations a tad since it's offputting to many adult females. At least, as to public embraces and kissing and such, which Harris does with a certain suggestiveness that is odd, out of place.

Which is also a lot of why she was wearing so much makeup and for so long...I notice that she's now gotten the message and toned down the eye makeup, which is good if she wants to pursue her role in politics, but she's applying a sorta "Hi, I'm Katherine, Fly Me" quality to her candidacy that I do hope she stops or at least, puts the breakers on.

If only for the reason that it is easily ridiculed.

I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT IF SHE'S SHOWING OFF. I WOULD IF I COULD. SHE'S A GOOD CONSERVATIVE, AND SHE LOOKS GOOD DOING IT. WE SHOULD ENCOURAGE BEATIFUL GOOD CONSERVATIVE WOMEN. THERE ARE MANY.

But I'm not going to vote for her in her Senate bid. She's way too easily swayed by populist sentiment, voting in favor of restrictions on speech--particularly films--among other things.

Cute, but vapid.

SR:

Just like her photos. It isn't the image that has beeen doctored. Katherine is a flirt and a phony. Did everyone see the "Canoodle" segment from CNN where she comes on to male Rep Congressman during debate on homeland security. Does anyone remember the lies about terrorists in Indiana? Forget about her abuse of power in 2000, she has been an embarrassment since 2002. Her morals are even too low for the likes of Karl Rove, and that's about as low as you can get.

A friend once accidentally bumped into Katherine's chest. They aren't real.

ICallMasICM:

'Forget about her abuse of power in 2000'

Actually she was about the only one doing her job. Her job was to certify the vote absent of seriuos evidence of fraud or malfunction which is what she did.

Your 'abuse of power in 2000' assertion is about as believable as 'A friend once accidentally bumped into Katherine's chest'.

...Did everyone see the "Canoodle" segment from CNN where she comes on to male Rep Congressman during debate on homeland security...

No, but not surprising. Fewer and fewer are watching CNN every day. By the time K. Harris gets reelected as Senator, CNN will be hitting up underprivileged kids and seniors for milk money and TV dinners.


...Her morals are even too low for the likes of Karl Rove, and that's about as low as you can get...

Ahh, had to get Rove in there. So satisfying to see such consistency. Having such a predictable lot makes winning elections that much simpler.

Roger:

If you don't like the woman, fine, but don't make fun of how she looks. I don't see any of you making fun of Ted Kennedy's tomato-red face when he's ranting, or of his hypocrisy and lies. For a group that claims to be the embodiment of tolerance, I see them hurling a lot of intolerance at anyone they don't like. She did her job in 2000, according to the law, and all I see on the left is a bunch of crybabies who don't like the fact that Gore lost and try to take it out on anyone who had anything to do with it. That was more than four years ago: get over it!

She does look good. I noticed that stance on Fox too. I also thought it looked a bit like a beauty pageant pose. She has a certain airy way about her. Not sure that is bad. I don't know her take on the issues, but then I don't have the opportunity to vote for her either.

Geez, can we lighten up? So she did a publicity shot on a horse, and her stirrups are not adjusted and her toes are not pointed correctly. And she is exploiting her appearance. What a slut!

-S-:

Michael...the thing about the non-fitted stirrups and her seat in that saddle is that she's obviously faking. That thing about reality...when you get on a horse, I mean, faking it is a sure giveaway that you are, um, a faker. Faking it, as in, "yeah, my friend wants your number."

That sorta stupid faking. It tends to offput females, mostly, who evaluate other women differently (ahem) than men.

But, I like Harris and I'm a female, just not in the way that most on this thread "like" Harris. Ha.

I was earlier trying to give her a few pointers -- no pun intended -- because if us conservatives can ridicule her so, just wait for the liberal screed. And it'll be about: (1.) her appearance; (2.) her posing; (3.) "she's so false"; (4.) that makeup; (5.) "she's so false..."

Just trying to head them off at the pass, so to speak. Harris ought to not have allowed that photo to be taken of her on that horse so ill-fitted because other people who would never do that notice. It matters.

On the other hand, I'd rather see a posing, obviously staged, Harris on the horse than Hillary Clinton ANY day.

SR:

The problem with Harris is not the eyeshadow, the plastic surgery or the posturing. Those are just blue eyeshadow herrings. The problem is that she is a liar and a fake politically and a public embarrassment. She has a history of sleazy campaigning - including guesting at the illegal Delay Texas fundraisers - lying about imagined terrorist cells in Indiana, stalling and delaying and finally blocking the 2000 Fl vote recount, lying about her Congressional opponent, flirting inappropriately on camera.

Why doesn't Rove want her running for the Senate? Could it be because she is incomepetent?
