[MisterEdMe]

I wonder how well a '100 Most Powerful Women' nude calendar set would sell?

 

[Darla_Darling]

You mean I missed out on making the Top 100 again this year? Fuck it.

 

[Ishmael]

Hillary's got to be pissed.

Ishmael

 

[Ishmael]

I agree, quit while your ahead.

[Cap’n AMatrixca]

They stiffed Oprah...

 

[ReadyMike]

They stiffed Oprah...

I agree, probably Melinda Gates, too. The power of media and money has passed politics in the US.

Of course, the omission of Darla D. is just a testimonial to her awesome power.

 

[clutch1]

They stiffed Oprah...

She made it to 21 in the world not bad.
But i bet she's pissed

 

[SinCityBaby]

I wonder how they defined "power" for this list since it runs the gamut from politics to big business to entertainment. I mean I'm just not sure how "powerful" someone like Katie Couric is, she's a news anchor, as compared to the Angela Merkel the Chancellor for Germany - granted their is a large disparity between the placement of the two on the list.

 

[clutch1]

I hope Ho Ching gets October.

 

[ReadyMike]

I wonder how they defined "power"

That's a good question, if power is the ability to get what they want, most political leaders should move down the list.

If power is the ability to change their community, country, the world, maybe politcal leaders move up the list. How much effect does should the power of the country have on the power of the leader? For US leaders, power is divided many ways (535 members of the House of Reps. for example).

 

[Darla_Darling]

I agree, probably Melinda Gates, too. The power of media and money has passed politics in the US.

Of course, the omission of Darla D. is just a testimonial to her awesome power.

Clearly, they did not want to risk causing offense by daring to put my name in print.

 

[bisexplicit]

I'd like to eat out the cunt of a woman like that.

Power is sexy.

She could even be on the phone making important business like calls if she didn't have enough time to fit just having her cunt licked in her schedule.

 

[GranniesJizz]

I'd like to eat out the cunt of a woman like that.

Power is sexy.

I'd love to eye-ball a woman like that

Hah.

I'd imagine it would be pretty fucking hot to dominate someone who is one of the "most powerful."

I bet whoever is fucking them makes them say that they're worthless - at least, goddamn, I hope they do.

 

[Cade Is Here]

Lol, yeah it would

 

[Manda_Lynn]

I see I didn't make it

 

[Faneros]

They stiffed Oprah...

21 Oprah Winfrey Chairman, Harpo U.S.

 

[Retrieval]

I want to spank every single one of those uppity bitches.

 

[pink]

I want to spank every single one of those uppity bitches.

i do too and i'm not even dominant. LOL

 

[coastal-boy]

to even put Rice in the top 100 shows how pathetic this "poll" is. She is and always will be a no-body...working for a no-body administration. Will she be remembered 10 years from now, let alone 50? If not...then why does she belong here? History is already writing itself and it is not favorable.

 

[hogjack]

The list has one galaxy-sized gap by excluding former professional wrestler Chyna.

Hot.

[hogjack]

Not a Candy, Destiny or Crystal in the bunch.

Sad.

 

[bisexplicit]

But, this isn't a list of the top 100 strippers.
