What Political Correspondant Gets You Going?

[zoid]

Am I the only one who's hot for Karen Finney?
She certainly not the stereotypical tiny little thing we usually see on TV, but DAMN she wears it well.

NBC's boyish but swashbuckling foreign correspondent Richard Engel: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lf...e8x6o1_500.jpg

Please don't get all blowed-up.

[zoid]

Dear lord Eve! As a straight man I have to say that boy sure is pretty
And I really don't know why but for some odd reason "swashbuckling" seems to fit him perfectly.

When Richard Engel and Brian Williams have a, umm, "two-way" on the news, I have thoughts. And since they are usually talking about massacres in Syria or Lebanon, I have to put it on mute and pretend they are talking about me.

[Inner Stickler]

Wow, I clicked on the Engel link thinking it'd be some sorta-pretty-in-a-squint-your-eyes sort of way, but that man is grade-A certified hunk.

Oh man. Richard Engel can buckle my swashes anytime he wants. (picture my eyebrows flapping)

He does look good in blue, doesn't he?

My, my, my (as granny used to say).

Thanks, Eve.

Krystal Ball, who often appears on MSNBC. They introduce her as a Democratic strategist.

[Lionne]

Ari Shapiro looks as good as he sounds on NPR.

"Krystal Ball?!" She sounds like a stripper at the Troc!

[PoorYorick]

I've been a little in love with Christiane Amanpour since Gulf War I, even more so when I saw her on Craig Ferguson recently. She's as old as I am, but, unlike me, wears it well.

I came in to mention Ari. When I first saw a photo of him I was sort of outraged that someone that pretty was working radio and that I'd been listening to him for years without knowing. Sadly, he's married.

OMG, I thought I was the only one. When he's on TV, he could be announcing the end of the world, but in my head I hear a steamy romance novel scene playing out with images of him....

Oh, wow, even the sight of him in that picture makes my mind click into 'total chic' mode... *tabs back to linked picture*

[etv78]

Alex Wagner's easy on the eyes.

[Robot Arm]

Do they have to be current, or can we go into the archives? I always thought Campbell Brown was smokin'.

[etv78]

Even though she makes me think,"So pretty, SOO stupid," I think Michelle Malkin is attractive.

[Taomist]

Does Anderson Cooper count?
'cause he makes me wish I were a gay man. <3

I know!

Richard Engel: "A suicide bomb attack in Egypt today killed 28 people, including a mother and her newborn . . . "

Eve: "He's so dreeeeeaaaamy . . . "

Yes, I could totally hate-fuck her.

Apparently her dad was a physicist and did his dissertation on crystals. The first time I saw her, I had to look her up to figure out if she took a spouse's surname and I thought that must really be love - or her original surname was terrible! Instead, the answer appears to be that she really does love her dad even though he has a terrible sense of humor.

And yes, Richard Engel. Mmmm. My love for Brian Williams (even though he could stand to lay off the tanning a tad) was cemented by his performance as guest host on Saturday Night Live a few years back. The man can act!

I asked my wife, "What do you think Ari Shapiro looks like?" She said, "I don't know. Probably short, bald, and a little fat." I showed her the picture you linked, and her jaw dropped a little. She gasped, "Oh my god!"

Brian Williams could slow jam me anytime.

I am quite aware that I am no one's "type," dear heart, so you can reassure Messrs. Engel and Williams that I have no designs on them.

Pfft. As if any of us in this thread have a snowball's chance with any of these lovelies.

But I can still have happy thoughts!

This is out of line and jerkish. Do not post like this again. This is a warning.

[River Hippie]

Not sure if she qualifies as a political correspondent but Lara Logan could have her way with me...(I'll be in my bunk.)
