		<description>My mind is still reeling as to what Jessica&#039;s clothing, stance or breast size had to do with anything. Althouse is the most juvenile adult I&#039;ve ever had the pleasure of not meeting.

Jessica posed exactly how one in a group photo should pose: slightly turned so as not to take up too much space and so as not to block the view of those standing behind her.

One has to wonder though... if Clinton were not in the photo, would any of this stupid crap have been brought up by the mouth-breathers?</description>

		<description>partly from the advice here &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.digitalcamerau.com/2006/08/10/5-steps-to%20being-more-photogenic/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and partly from this advice I got from an extremely photogenic friend:

&quot;A three-quarter turn is the most flattering way to stand for a full-length picture.  It helps keep off the extra ten pounds the camera likes to add.  Turn your body inward, plant your front foot facing the camera, shoulders relaxed, arms at your sides, and turn your face to the camera.&quot;

Seems like Jessica is guilty of not wanting to look like crap in a photo with An Important Person, and of knowing the right pose to prevent such an occurrence.  God forbid.</description>

		<description>First off, I didn&#039;t check the Internets until yesterday evening, and I was appalled about this!  I looked at the photo after seeing the post topic in Pandagon without really reading the content, because I was wanting to see if I could spot exactly what the fuck was so offensive.  Of course, I couldn&#039;t.  I thought it was maybe about that blonde lady (I don&#039;t know her name, sorry) in the front, because her dress was somewhat low-cut, if you looked really, really hard.  

Anyway, Jessica, if you&#039;re reading this, I think you RULE, and as a woman your age with OMG BOOBIES and brown hair, I have nothing but admiration for you.

I&#039;m trying to figure out if she deliberately made the snarky &quot;intern&quot; comment in hopes of starting this exact chain of events, or if she made the comment as a sort of inside joke (because, you know, fucking intern comments 8 years after the fact are so clever) and didn&#039;t expect to get called out on it.  I&#039;m going with the latter, actually, because I don&#039;t think she&#039;s that diabolical--just unoriginal and clueless.  And, as others have pointed out, instead of backing down and apologizing, she escalated the situation and became completely nasty.  I could have a small amount of respect for her if she had at least said, &quot;Oops, sorry.  Didn&#039;t know.&quot;  It&#039;s still sexist and disgusting, but at least it was a stupid joke that Jay Leno could have made.

		<description>This Althouse creature closed her comments section, because the truth hurts. This was her response to my comment:

&quot;Uhh.... no. And that&#039;s completely incoherent. What the hell are you trying to say? Ever heard of proofreading... and, uh, like, thinking? And that reading thing too. I kinda like you know recommend it. &quot;

I would have thought that a person of her education would have figured our that irony is clearly not one of her greatest assets. </description>

		<description>That woman is an idiot. Yes, i&#039;m sure her concern is for Jessica&#039;s feminism... that&#039;s why she&#039;s encouraging the sexist comments the post received.

When I looked at the picture in question, I had two thoughts. The first was (knowing what it was a photo of) &quot;Gee. That blogger conference sure does consist of a whole bunch of whitefellas. *cranky*&quot; The second was &quot;I hope that dude on the end is a friend of that woman he&#039;s manhandling...&quot;

		<description>&gt;(Of course, her entire post was over-the-line.) She let the commentary about Jessica run wild, but she expects other people to defend her?

Yah, that&#039;s pretty classic, too.  </description>
