French President Jacques Chirac kisses the hand of Austria's Foreign Minister Ursula Plassnik (R) upon her arrival at the International Conference for Support to Lebanon in Paris January 25, 2007. REUTERS/Charles Platiau (FRANCE)OMG, Chirac was really slutting it up yesterday! Kissing all the girls, and probably the boys, too! I don't know whose hands he slobbered on first, Condi's or Ursula's, but shame, Mr. Chirac, shame.
Also, gosh, Ursula looks so naked with not even a necklace around her neck. I'm assuming that just to her left, out of the frame, stands a lady-in-waiting patiently holding a magnificent, amazonian scarf for our towering beauty.
What really makes me weep, though, is that obviously Condi and Ursula were at the same place at the same time yesterday, and nobody thought to take their picture together? Oh, Reuters, how could you?
EDIT: In other news this morning, are you all aware that this blog is racist and misogynist?
UPDATE: It turns out I'm not! Yay!

When I saw the previous photos with the over-sized couches, I thought "Did the French think to Ursula-size one of their meeting rooms? That's mighty thought-y of them."
But I resisted typing it. I didn't want to make everything about Ursula. Just because I think about her constantly doesn't mean everyone thinks about her constantly. I mean, not everybody practices writing "Mr. Ursula Plassnik" in their notebook all day long or has UP + MB written inside hearts in the borders of their calculus book.
DAMN YOU, Princess Sparkle Pony! I damn you for shoving the knowledge of Ursula Plassnik into the minefield that I once called my mind.
And bless you... bless you from the bottom of my itty bitty broken heart.
Yummm... tastes like shrimp from the barbie.
It's obvious to me, PSP, what's going through her mind. That is a bit of sneer on her face. I'm sure she can't get it off her mind that Marie Antoinette (Austrian) was beheaded by the French.
Let's compare the reaction of Condi having her hand kissed to the reaction of Ursula.
Condi's all like isn't this neat-o? And Ursula's all like 'you know it should be my ass, frenchie'.
I looked it up: Chirac is either 6' 1-3/4" or 6' 2-1/2" depending on the source. Ursula is 6' 3". This photo proves she does not limit herself to flats!!! Brave, Urs, truly brave.
You forgot "impudent," silly!
Re the commentary about your blog on Palo Alto online... "This will really fry your egg"... PSP, you always fry my egg, over easy and just so nice.
Not "hateful and mysogynistic," the comment said RACIST and mysogynistic, honey.
Matty Boy---quick, I started a program for Men And Women Who Love Ursula P. Too Much (MAMWLUPTM or 'Mammary Will Up'---aw forget it) . I'm hoping to turn it into a franchise, anyone wanna lend me the startup? I'm living in a tuna can right now---PU.
On Jess Wundrun's observation that Ursula wears heels, THANK YOU for doing that research. It proves she is a Woman Who Loves Herself or it proves she knows how to look down on heads of state. Which of course, Chirac is oblivious too as he flaps his lips about over women's hands. Do frogs have lips? Apparently oui oui!
Princess, this blog is WHAT? Ah....the Irony-Free zone that circles most major University towns in California. They can't help it--- lack of pesticides in food when growing up causes heavy loss of irony and permanently pursed lips. Horrid wrinkles!
Time to march at Stanford carrying Pink Ponies and declaring our defense and love of Condi. Maybe we'll even be stoned....
Dearest PSP, some folks in the 30% (we all know which 30%, don't we?) just LOVE to throw around racist (and misogynist) because they themselves have been accused so many times.
If you don't fawn over Dr. Ferragamo, you hate all black people and probably all women.
If you criticize Alberto Gonzalez, you hate all Hispanics.
If you say unkind things about Dick Cheney, you renounce Satan and all his works. (Wait... that may not be the 30% comeback.)
Here we had this lovely Ursula moment - even sans scarf - and some mean dumb people have to go ruin it for the rest of us.
p.s. Dear Guru, I like the idea, though I am unclear on the concept of too much. The first step is admitting you have a problem... so, no problem! Also, I am short on seed money, as I am currently living in a totally cool fort made out of old macaroni and cheese boxes.
Ha ha! You know, I don't do independent Tzipi searches, so I only notice her when she falls into Condiorbit. I also haven't been keeping up with new superstar Micheline.
And you know what's really sad? I really do search almost daily for Karen Hughes news, but she just doesn't get photographed much. That makes me sad.
Ursula does look a bit wary. I wonder if anyone, including the French, still thinks that hand kissing is at all charming and not a really easy way to pass on cooties.
You get my vote for more Tzipi searches, though. Hardly anyone does annoyed or P.O.'d better than a sabra* girl. Love them!
* Didn't know this until just now: word means "prickly pear" in Hebrew. Cool!
Tzipi's pretty dull, aside from her name (which is Tzipi). Something about Tzipi makes you want to say "Tzipi" or type "Tzipi" over and over again!
"Racist and myscogynistic" Yeah, uhh. I've always loved the internet because it allows me to meet the craziest people in the world without having to smell their apartments.
