Yeah, she's got this heavy-brow/neanderthal thing kind of going, but that wouldn't stop me from tapping her like a vermont maple.

Whoa, what is happening here? N8 slows down the onslaught of signle minded cut and paste threads and now he does not want to attend a republican dinner, not because of all the backstabbing scumbags regulars but because of a hot chick. I'm not sure if he is coming out of the closet or might actually be thinking for himself?

Follow-up: looking more stupid than ever...

Jessica Simpson snubs Bush

By Steve Gorman Thu Mar 16, 1:11 AM ET

Concerned about politicising her favourite charity, singer-actress Jessica Simpson on Wednesday turned down a invitation to meet with U.S. President George W. Bush, a snub that left Republicans dismayed.

The apparent final word that Simpson would be a no-show at a major Republican fund-raiser with Bush and congressional leaders on Thursday night came after a day of conflicting reports from her camp and organisers of the event.

The blond star of the film "The Dukes of Hazzard" still plans to visit Washington on Thursday to lobby members of Congress on behalf of Operation Smile, a non-profit venture offering free plastic surgery for disadvantaged children overseas with facial deformities.

People close to Simpson said she declined a request to appear that same evening at the gala fund-raiser of the National Republican Congressional Committee -- even after she was offered some private face time with Bush -- because Operation Smile is a non-partisan group.

"It just feels wrong," one Simpson insider told Reuters on Wednesday, adding that the actress keeps her political views private. "She would love to meet the president and talk about Operation Smile ... but she can't do it at a fund-raiser for the Republican Party."

NRCC spokesman Carl Forti said he was surprised at Simpson's position.

"It's never been a problem for Bono," he said, referring to the U2 rock star who has met regularly with political leaders of all stripes to promote various causes, including Third World debt relief. "I find it hard to believe she would pass up an opportunity to lobby the president on behalf of Operation Smile."

Although Simpson's publicists insisted she never had planned to attend the fund-raiser, Forti said the actress initially accepted the NRCC invitation when it was extended on Tuesday night, only to change her mind the next evening.

Forti said the Republican group had even arranged for Simpson to dine at one of the head tables with U.S. House of Representatives Majority Leader John Boehner, an Ohio Republican. The NRCC hopes the $2,500 (1,433 pounds) -per-plate dinner event will raise $7.5 million for Republican candidates in the congressional midterm elections in November.

Simpson, 25, a Texas native who started out singing in her church choir, became a star on the Christian music circuit as a teenager and crossed over to the pop mainstream with her major-label debut album "Sweet Kisses" in 1999.

She became an overnight MTV sensation in 2003 as co-star of a reality show chronicling her first year of wedlock with fellow pop vocalist Nick Lachey, but she filed for divorce in December after three stormy years of marriage. Simpson is currently featured wearing cowboy boots and hot pants in a TV pizza ad.

I love that this is the closing paragraphs of that article start like this:
"Simpson, 25, a Texas native who started out singing in her church choir, became a star on the Christian music circuit as a teenager"

and end like this:
"Simpson is currently featured wearing cowboy boots and hot pants in a TV pizza ad."

No additional comment necessary.

Not to claim that Simpson actually understands any of this, but Operation Smile DOES happen to be a pretty amazing charity. In countries where a cleft palate not only has health implications, but carries a major social stigma (to the point where the person is unemployable and unmarriable [is that a word?]), the surgery can be a much more sustainable solution (think "teach a man to fish...") than a soup kitchen for deformed beggars.

I don't think they are giving them "Perfect 10" smiles so much as they are corrcting DEFORMITIES.

I like making fun of blonde bimbos as much as the next person, but give a little credit where it's due. She's helping children. Can't fault her for that.

Edit: Ohio beat me to it and said it better.

I'm still gob-smacked that republicans wanna help these kids in the first place. I mean if God didn't wanna them to live lives ridiculed and shunned by society he wouldn't have given them cleft palates.

Sure she can. She can say, I would love to meet with these lawmakers to discuss my charity, but the charity has no political affiliation so using a few thousand dollars of their money to go to a party fund-raising is an inappropriate venue.

Sorta like this?

I guess that's why you do what you do and she's an actress/singer figurehead for a charity.

No I don't, but those are technically accounting firms. I'm more akin to the two Bobs from Office Space.

However, I'm in the process of moving back into product design (my previous field)... if I actually like the next gig, y'all may have the pleasure of not having to hear from me 10 times a day.
