I worked around Victoria while working on the X Files. We didnt speak directly to each other but there was a group of us involved in a conversation about who knows what and she was walking by. She stopped for a second exchanged some words with us and moved on.
Working around her for a couple of days and observing her I remember thinking that she was like a ray of sunshine. She was always smiling and her blue eyes would just sparkle. I half expected her to run and do cartwheels at any moment.
She was absolutely gorgeous. A bit chubby but thats not a bad thing.
I would have married her myself right then and there. She was just so sweet.
Thats the image I had of her for years. Just a sweetheart.
Ive seen and done alot of things in my life but Im absolutely shocked that such a sweetheart is actually a racist, homophobe, right wing, wannabe American Taliban, religious fanatic PSYCHO.
It actually makes me kind of sad.
Its too bad. -

Except for the fact that "Politichicks" has very little visual impact, which doesn't do much for the fact that the women on the show are spewing near-insanity at times.
Not trying to take a shot, but only the African-American, and blonde woman (who isn't Victoria) are the closest thing to sweet and attractive. They're both cute, but they open their mouths, and it's impossible to continue listening for sense, and the attractiveness goes out the window.
I assume Victoria is there to add a level of "fame" to the show, but the fact that she's the "fame" on the show is a joke in itself.
I'm starting to winder if "Politichicks" is an Andy Kaufman-esque type comedy show. If not, it's an amazing failure at talking sense to anyone who doesn't already buy the line of weirdness these people put out there. -

OP,
Maybe you need to re-think your political assumptions about those who disagree with your precious positions. If she was as you describe her from your personal encounter, then she is not a "racist, homophobe, right wing, wannabe American Taliban religious fanatic PSYCHO". Unless you are truly lousy at reading people's personalities, you have a dilemma to resolve. You can go the really easy route and think the worst of her, or perhaps you can consider that a person can hold positions different from yours and still be a decent person. You choose for yourself.

No, she definitely is. She's two manifestos short of a Unibomber.

Read the Unabomber Manifesto section entitled Psychology of modern leftism, it is spot on.

Not even remotely "spot on". Sorry.
Ted K. was just another delusional, pissed-off right-winger.
Ironically, when he's ranting about the feelings of inferiority and powerlessness in the left, he's actually just engaging in some projection of his own.Fox "News": We lie, you panic!

I met her as well - we sat next to each other on a long plane flight and chatted extens5b4ively.
I understand exactly what the OP means. In person, she's very sweet and likeable and the very personification of words like "perky" and "ray of sunshine".
However, her political views are the exact opposite dark, angry, bitter and hateful.
On one hand, I can understand some of it. She told me about some of the things that she's been through in her personal life and I can understand why a person who'd been through those things would have some stored-up bitterness and anger.
What I don't understand is her buying into the wholesale delusions of the nuttiest fringe aspects of the religious right.
However, I see her, as PG Wodehouse would have said, "more to be pitied than censured".
Like cat who is cute and adorable, but because of what it has endured, scratches and claws people at random.Fox "News": We lie, you panic!

The OP's story and how he remembers her was exactly what I thought of her as a kid too. It's literally saddening and shocking to learn her true colors. I've never given up one of my childhood crushes so quick lol. She's ugly af now, and not because of her looks, but her beliefs and attitude.
