Basketball game sparks complaints of a man’s world at White House
By Mark Leibovich
New York Times / October 25, 2009

WASHINGTON - Does the White House feel like a frat house?

The suspicion flared in recent weeks - and not for the first time - after President Obama was criticized by women’s advocates and liberal bloggers for hosting a high-level basketball game with no female players.

The president, after all, is an unabashed First Guy’s Guy. Since being elected, he has demonstrated an encyclopedic knowledge of college hoops on ESPN, indulged a craving for weekend golf, expressed a preference for adopting a “big rambunctious dog’’ over a “girlie dog,’’ and hoisted beer in a peace-making effort.

He presides over a White House rife with fist-bumping young men who call one another “dude’’ and testosterone-brimming personalities like Rahm Emanuel, the often-profane chief of staff; Lawrence Summers, the brash economic adviser; and Robert Gibbs, the press secretary, who habitually speaks in sports metaphors.

Too many writers, not enough topics.

Manufactured insanity.
