“Politics is showbiz for ugly people”

If you ever doubted it, check out the list of The Hottest Heads of State.

Only in that list would Rafael Correa and Cristina Fernandez come in fifth and sixth place, respectively.

Since the Nobel Peace Prize committee didn’t have a say, Obama came in 15th.

    I think that Cristina looks quite good. of course I wouldn’t think of voting for her, but that’s another matter.

    Silvio was placed in 65th?
    He’s had more… er.. “successes” than anyone else on that list, by miles!

    I think the Nobel committee is stuffing this ballot box too. There’s no way that O should be that well placed. Some weeks past when Silvio met O and Michelle, (at a G20 meeting?) O stepped between them and only allowed a handshake, so maybe O knows something in the power of Silvio… I’m just sayin.

    Yes, well, there is a difference between Head of State and Head of Government in many countries (though not in the USA). Thus a Prime Minister is Head of Government whereas a King/Queen/Prince/Duke or a President is Head of State.

    There should be a prize for the goofiest headgear.
