Brigitte Bardot slams Palin as a 'disgrace to women'

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20081007/en_afp/usvoteentertainmentpeoplepalinbardot_081007172729

"I hope you lose these elections because that would be a victory for the world," Bardot wrote in an open letter to Republican John McCain's running mate in the November vote.

"By denying the responsibility of man in global warming, by advocating gun rights and making statements that are disconcertingly stupid, you are a disgrace to women and you alone represent a terrible threat, a true environmental catastrophe," wrote Bardot.

The screen icon from the 1960s, who now heads an animal rights foundation, went on to assail Palin for supporting Arctic oil exploration that could jeopardize delicate animal habitats and for dismissing measures to protect polar bears.

"This shows your total lack of responsibility, your inability to protect or simply respect animal life," Bardot wrote.

5. Well, typically I'd start by brushing her cheek...
and then running my hand along her shoulders, and then--
Oh wait, I missed the comma in your subject header. Um, never mind.

:blush:

11. there is a pic of her, now 74 yrs. old, with the article. I didn't post it because


I knew it would get a lot of mean and hurtful comments from some men.

12. I like to see what they look like at 74 years of age.
She was the hottest thing in Europe (here too?) in the 60's.

13. I remember some of the comments about her appearance...
during the court case over the summer. Yeah, it was sad.

14. From some men, I'm sure, but everyone gets old if
they live long enough. I clicked the link fully expecting a picture of her as she looks today. Looks are fleeting, but her spirit is as strong and beautiful now as her looks were then. And that's why I still love her.
