Women Are Powerful

power women.JPG
Do you agree with Forbes’ list of the 100 most powerful women? Merkel is #1, fine, but Oprah below the CEO of Rite Aid (the logic here is that America’s housewives need their prescription refills to tolerate the massive emotional swings required of an Oprah viewing without lighting themselves on fire)? Ruth Bader Ginsburg below the CEO of Sara Lee (deliciousness is never un-constitutional). Hillary Clinton below ‘I am important in my own special and deserved way’ Melinda Gates? Queen Elizabeth II at #23 (ok, we don’t know if we’d put her higher or lower, but we love the fact that her occupation is “Queen”). The ghost of Nina Wang conspicuously absent from the list? No Melanie Griffith’s character from “Working Girl”? No Rosie the Riveter?

    And they would trade it all for a big hairy dick.

    When I saw Christiane Amanpour @74 I swear to God I choked on my own vomit.

    Maybe if France added a few more powerful women to their overall ranks, they wouldn’t surrender as often.

    Whatever, Oprah is numbers 1-5, everyone else is at least is 6+

    The way Carney is treated here reminds me of how Sean Connery treats Alex Trebek on the Jeopardy SNL skit.
    “Thats a nice suit Trebek. Do they make it for men?”

    This is like ranking the LPGA. Does it really matter?

    Once Carney gets that tummy tuck, he will likely crack the top 25.

    Sonia Gandhi is the President of what exactly?

    But seriously, how many of these 100 women would you actually do?
    (unless you were really, really horny)

    All “successful” women have one thing in common: a dad who didnt love them.

    Shouldn’t Malinda Gates be a little higher than that no-talent-hack-windbag Oprah and her legion of wide assed soccer moms?

    Oprah is arguably the most powerful african american on the planet, moreso than Condi, Barak, Mandela, Michael Jordan even.
    Should she be though? Of course not.

    Anon at 6:00,
    I love how you described Mandela as an “African American.” How idiotic is that PC term? How weak-minded are those who use it?

    What about the current President of Philippine Republic? Looking at the list of Forbes Powerful Women,I bet they will all hide under the bed or run faster than the bullet train during coup d’ etat a.k.a military rebillion.That President handled it so well .It’s also a country with so many problems but able to maintain a modest growth.

    Queen Elizabeth? What these people in Forbes magazine thinking? The Queen should thank her ancestors.

    The real question is how many of these 100 women would consider humping you? Probably none.
