I'm all about speaking out against sexual harassment, but this is ridiculous.

SEE IT: GOP senator calls teenage pages 'beautiful girls' - NY Daily News

Quote:
GOP Sen. Roger Wicker was caught on a hot mic gushing about "beautiful" teenage Senate pages as Congress geared up to pass a short term spending bill on Monday.

Wicker made the questionable comment while speaking with Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), who had mentioned that one page was from one of the most beautiful parts of the country, the Mississippi senator's spokesman, Ryan Taylor, told the Daily News.

Oh my goodness. And he didn't even call the pages beautiful girls he said she was from one of the most beautiful parts of the country.

A while back I commented that our basketball players were beautiful girls. I guess I better watch my mouth.

This is a very desperate attempt to make something out of nothing.

What questionable comment?

You can tell when the Democrats are losing badly, when they try to pretend normal and acceptable conversation is somehow wrong. They have nothing else.

I'd be mortally offended and complain bitterly if I was one of the girls and I wasn't beautiful.

I hear little 3 and 4 year old girls called "beautiful girls" all of the time, which obviously is not meant in a sexual way. Everything has to be sexualized now and nothing can be innocent.
