The UK Daily Mail tackles all the big news. Every article concerns a hot looking girl. LeAnn Rimes has a perfect body, while Kate Middleton looks fab in Jersey, and our Texas gal is looking good.

I'm sure if the student were ugly, this wouldn't be news.

i dismiss this except the fact that she is the president of the university of texas college republicans.

she has an obligation to be professional as she is the representative of republicans on campus.

her position gives me the go ahead to call her an idiot, for the simple fact that her group will get blow back for her stupid statements since she is the head of the group.

there already distancing themselves from her, and she'll probably be gone in a week or so.

Not a bright remark on her part, and she's entitled to her opinion. But it made to the Mail Online? Slow news day I take it.

Funny, I see far worse comments from posters here every day.

It's also pretty hypocritical to say "stupid hoe" or "she should be dropped off in the hood", considering those are worse than what she wrote.

If you are going to insult someone with stereotypes, you should at least get them right. You don't snort crack.

As far as I know, one doesn't snort crack. And smack is heroin.

Not sure if you were joking, but that was written by Jack Kerouac.

It can't be a day here in political with someone posting up someone saying something stupid and then we all pile on with our pre-conceptions to label entire groups as bad, dumb, communist, racist etc etc etc.

Can we just get a sticky made that says "Everyone that doesn't share my views is a poo poo head?" It would be about 12,000 pages long by now.
