The Hill's annual 50 Most Beautiful list hits the halls of Congress today. In the top ten this year is Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Alexis Latifi, a staffer for Sen. Richard Shelby(R-Ala.).

1. Almost every single one comes from a privileged background.
Old money, old connections and a club 99.9% of us can never join.

Welcome to America in the 21st century.

5. but to *them* that dosn't matter
The elites have the SAME attitude as Barbara Bush -- they don't want to bother their *beautiful minds* about the poor -- but they will preen so those same poor can worship at their huge f*cking EGOS.

That video is proof of it.

10. I know Congress.
I know the people that work in Congress. I know Congress members.

Families of privilege serve in Congress.

6. Gotta say... none of 'em are that hot.
I guess the old saying about politics being showbiz for ugly people holds true... :shrug:

7. The Hill
notoriously leans right. Notice most of these women are Republicans. Not much else to say except they do this every year and it's always funny how serious some people take it.

9. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?

Brains? Afraid not. Why anyone would assume that some 20 or 30 something hill staffers have brains because they manage brainless politicians twice their age escapes me.

11. The Hills beauty
I guess these beautiful people like the spotlight. How about a list of "ugly with brains"? I suspect that would be the top 500.. Oh, well, the veneer is more important than the brains anyway.

17. Distribution
Quick scan/rough count:

17 Republican
3 Independent
30 Democratic or thereabouts (one claims "Liberal" status, no party)

Clear, scientific proof that if you want to be good looking, you should be a Democrat. :)
