Meet Gabrielle Reilly

I had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Reilly today. I was on the website for Republican congressional candidate Howard Kaloogian, when I spoted this endorsement on his site:

Gabrielle Reilly, Columnist
International Political Activist & Swimsuit Model

I had to follow the accompanying link and learn more about Ms. Reilly. From her own web site I learned:

"Gabrielle is a Australian/American swimsuit model, political commentator and international celebrity." Mel Gibson, vegamite sandwiches and now Gabrielle Reilly. Screw you, Australia!

"She works as an international diplomat bringing understanding between countries, political parties, governments and the people." No shit! Thank god we have Gabrielle to keep open those delicate backchannels with Australia! Remember the Australian Missle Crisis, when they aimed their nukes right for Seattle? It was Gabrielle who eased tensions and saved Starbucks.

"Gabrielle is interviewed via phone and email by leading newspapers and radiostations throughout the world to explain US policy and ideals to the international pop culture and mainstream." I definately want the world turning to Gabrielle. All those ugly university professor, elected officials, and state department employees hardly show any boobs when explaining our imperialist interest in sub-saharan Africa.

"As a swimsuit model she is greeted in market segments that most Statesmen would not be greeted, giving her the opportunity to address politically sensitive issues in typically hard to penetrate demographics throughout the world." What kind of places might those be? Nudes, Nudes, Nudes down near the airport? And did someone really suggest that she can "penetrate" anything? Horrible choice of words!

Gabby got to interview Howard Kaloogian and she had some wonderful insights. The interview is a great read with lots of hard hitting questions. At the end of it, she shows her boobs. (I'm assuming. I figure she can't go anywhere without showing them off, so she must have given Kaloogian a peek!)
