Inexpugnably ugly? Ugliness that can't be beaten out?
Or was it inexpungeably ugly--unable to be expunged?
It turns out "expugnable" is an entry on dictionary.reference.com and means "conquerable". So "unconquerably ugly".

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom is a national treasure. Read him, embrace him, learn from him, and follow him as we all work for social change."
From Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."
I completely agree with Thom's opening statement. However, in his examples of a common man committing a crime such as killing his neighbor because the neighbor killed his dog will be put in jail, Thom neglected to say "as well he should be". I know this is a minor point, but to the uncritical ear, one might think Thom is actually trying to say committing a crime if you're in the 99% is OK if its OK for the 1%, and I'm pretty sure that isn't the meme Thom is trying to convey.
