…if there ever was such a thing.
OK. So this post isn’t likely to generate a lot of positive feedback from my female readers. Not only will this rank up there as one of the more pointless posts I’ve done, but I can just hear the Andre Louis = Shallow “A.L.” insults coming. I’m bracing myself for it. The following includes a list of hot women; but not just any women. These are hot women in the most unexpected place: politics.
Before I start, I should point out that being on my list has absolutely nothing to do with personalities or politics. In fact, with the exception of a few of the folks on my list, I’m not even that hip to their positions on things. They just happen to be fine as all outdoors.
First, I’ll start with the honorable mention list. These women didn’t quite make the cut. But they still have some element of hotness to them worth commending:
*Note: These are in no particular order*
Elizabeth Kucinich. All around hottie and wife of policitian Dennis Kucinich. A most unusual couple indeed.
Michelle Obama. Future First lady. Even if she doesn’t secure the first lady position, she’s still pretty damn hot. But I’ll have to write one hell of a retraction. Yes, we can. And yes you are!
Nancy Pelosi. U.S. Speaker of the House. Yes, she’s old enough to remember when electricity was discovered. Nevertheless, she’s still pretty hot. Then again, a lot of Italian-Americans can still rock passed 100.
Elizabeth Wong. Former Chinese politician. Not exactly sure on how to say “Good Lord, she’s fine!” in Chinese…
Condoleezza Rice. U.S. Secretary of State. Maybe it’s her power. Maybe it’s her smarts. Maybe it’s just her amazing legs. I dunno what it is, but Condi is pretty hot.
Jennifer Granholm. Governor of Michigan. Probably one of the worst governors in the history of Michigan. But definitely the hottest.
Benazir Bhutto. Former Prime Minister of Pakistan. I didn’t agree with most of her politics. But fortunately, that’s not a requirement on this list.
Hannah Yeoh. Malaysian politician. My age. Hmmmm…
Ayaan Hirsi. African born politician and writer. As a feminist, she would probably beat my ass for putting her on this type of list.
Gretchen Whitmer. Michigan State Senator. I actually met Sen. Whitmer during my last visit to the Capitol. She’s even hotter in person. Getting a glimpse at her restores my faith in my state government. Well, maybe not. But you get the point.
And now, to steal the idea from T-Mobile, my top five:
5th place: Nurul Izzah Anwar. Malaysian politicial. Has – quite possibly – the most amazing eyes I’ve ever seen (besides mine and Greeny’s of course. 🙂 )
4th place: Yulia Tymoshenko. Former Prime Minister of Ukraine. She’s one tough cookie, but my God is she gorgeous!
3rd place: Nikki Tinker. Tennessee laywer and former congressional candidate. Amazingly gorgeous. Even more amazingly soulless.
2nd place: Rania Al Abdullah. Queen of Jordan. I had a little bit of trepidation with putting royalty on my list. But dagnamit, it she’s not one of the hottest politicians on the planet…
And the award for the Hottest Female Politician goes to…
Alaskan governor/Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin. Sweet mother of damn…this woman is hot. It’s hard to imagine that she’s a mother of five, a conservative, and a gun nut. Who would’ve ever thunk it? All that notwithstanding, she has to go down as my pick for the hottest politican. Oh to be the lucky guy who gets to come home to her.
There you have it. My list of the hottest politicians of the female variety. I’m sorry if this came across as sexist. But what can I say? I’m a man. Sometimes a brotha just can’t help it.

Sigh! Men…
Hey Dre,
Nancy Pelosi ????? Yikes! If her skin was pulled any tighter she wouldn’t be able to blink. Here’s my list of people who are hotter (and younger) than San Fran Nan;
Yoda
The Crypt Keeper
Medusa
Ed McMann
Moses
Phyllis Diller
The Geiko Cave Man
Skeletor
Master Po from “Kung Fu”
Is it the big breasts that are stopping you from seeing her frightening Joker-esque face and Rodney Dangerfield eyes? Sorry Dre, I don’t get that one.
@ Cyn: I’m pleasantly suprised that a sigh was all I got. I was expecting much worse…like a groan.
@ HC: With a little skin cream and a better hairdo, Medusa would be pretty hot. Still, I guess I can kinda sorta see your point. Nevertheless, Pelosi still has some G.G.G.I.L.F. qualities to her. A net worth of about $25 million can do that to a person.
Oddly enough, I think I would’ve had the same top five. But I would’ve switched them up a bit. I would’ve had (5) Rania Al Abdullah, (4) Sarah Palin; as much as it pains you to hear that, (3) Nurul Izzah Anwar, (2) Nikki Tinker, and finally (1) Yulia Tymoshenko. I also agree with thehc, Pelosi doesn’t belong on anywhere near this post, dude. She has as much sex appeal as Gargamel.
Do pundits and political commentators go on this list also? If so, you can’t forget Amy Holmes and Kirsten Powers. All things considered, I agree with the list. You’ve got some real poli-babes here.
Andre,
Like everybody else, I was following you until you added Nancy Pelosi to this list. What, sir, were you thinking? Her being on this list is an insult to the other honorees.
If Cynthia gave you the sigh, I’ll provide the groan.
*Groan*
Andre, you think every woman you see is fine….weirdo…..
if pundits count, i could watch michelle malkin (on mute) all day.
Dag. Y’all pretty mean with the Pelosi bit. Tough crowd.
@ Jos: What can I say? I’m an equal opportuniist with the women folk.
@ KC & Ave: If commentators and pundits get added to the list, I’m feelin’ both of y’all with Holmes, Powers, and a muted Malkin. I would add most of the commentators on Fox News for that matter. I hate the station, but dammit – their anchors make up for it.

What’s going on….
Do you like WordPress so far? What kind of problems were you having w/ Blogger?
I’m thinking about moving to another blog service…. but i’m so used to blogger…. And i’ve tried wordpress before and didn’t care for it. Blogger is easier for me.
And Nancy Pelosi????? That’s troubling.
What’s up AI? Nice work you continue to do over at your joint. You know I’m a fan.
I hate to get overly dramatic here, but I had a hard time parting with Blogger. I diddled with WordPress a year or so ago, but I got incensed after going a few short rounds with it. So I stayed with Blogger. I was reintroduced to it when my campus adopted it for blog hosting. Having to manage our department’s blog, it started to grow on me a little more. I guess you can say I got to know it better before we started dating…
I don’t like the fact that certain features are only available by upgrading to a pay service (e.g the ability to design your own template or creating your own domain), but WordPress has got some pretty cool toys that I can’t find on Blogger. There are more widgets available; so I don’t have to do as much HTML. WP also allows the user to create more static pages; which is cool for a site like yours where you have a section dedicated to talking about each of your site’s contributors. I also like how WP allows me to edit comments (I don’t make it a practice to moderate comments, but I can at least edit them if the posters request it). But perhaps the thing that sold me the most was the ability of WP to import from other blogs.
Since my initially disappointing introduction to WordPress, they’ve stepped up their game some. It works for me. Hope that helps.
I see that you’re joining in the “Pelosi: WTF?!” group. I can tell now that y’all not gon’ let this one slide.
AHHHHH thank you sweetheart ,what a nice thing to say ,you made me all flush LOL
By the way I do not think you shallow ,just a MAN TEE HEE and even though you are extremely intelligent ,articulate , and driven you still think like a man ,in degrees of hot .it is a good thing your sizzlin or your female readers may have been rougher on you LOL
And handsome , you still have the best eyes I ever seen !
Greeneyes
One of the things that you definitely got right – Hirsi, with her fine self, would KICK YO A$$, son!. I like Michelle. Never liked Condi once the mouth opened up and she got to yakkin’, but, I would do that in a New York Minute!!!!! Over and over and . . . . Leggggggs. Is she really that hot, or am I just trippin’? I think it would take a whole lotta cream to pass Pelosi off as stunning, for me. Then, again, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps the women folk wouldn’t dislike lists such as these if we viewed them for what they were. Take a beauty pageant, for instance. That should be about beauty, sexuality, and eye-candy, and nothing more. Their politics, intelligence, and congeniality have nothing to do with it. It’s all about esthetics. Perhaps that why the women in blog-world may just give you a pass for this one. Hey – even women appreciate a beautiful woman (the nostrils might flare, but, they do acknowledge). Peace.
Different strokes for different folks, I guess. But Nancy Pelosi? I think I just threw up in my mouth.
Dre, what would a list of hot female politicians be without Mara Carfagna?

Oh, and yes: you’re on something for putting Nancy “Skeletor” Pelosi on your list.
