Another struggle in the fight for freedom

It's a tough job but somebody has to do it.

I have been doing my bit for the War against woman-hating, religious bigotry by checking out the Miss Universe finalists. Personally I think the registered Republican Miss USA looked much better than Miss Australia, the eventual winner.

Useful sociological experiment: check out Miss Sweden and try to focus on horrible tax rates in that country. So if Sweden had the burqah, perhaps they would have lower taxes. Tough call.

I like Miss Aussie's pose and that she appears to be covered in flesh rather than porcelain.

Miss Sweden all the way...

Er.... Miss Costa Rica had me and the missus mesmerized: could she possibly have been real? By this I mean to imply I prefer her to the Anglo-spheric blondes you lot seem to prefer.

Miss USA looks like a damn Disneyworld animatronic. I'll go for Australia.

Miss Sweden all the way

In your dreams, Andrew, in your dreams.

RCD,
Is your last sentence not missing the word "wet"?

If Aryan maidens float your boat then check out Miss Norway.

My personal favourites so far are Miss Brazil and Miss Netherlands.

I also wish to add Miss Poland and Miss Chile to the list.

Who cares? I'm just drooling.

My girlfriend is getting a bit jittery as I scroll through the list of nations. Miss Chile is lovely, and Miss Australia is a honey.

I need a cold shower.

Interesting. I'm rather partial to Miss Israel, and Miss Poland. Tho Miss Norway is rather nice as well.
