Not enough cabinet appointments according to the groups - I assume they wanted parity with male appointments.

Also they brought up in passing that progressives aren't happy w Obama because the cabinet is centrist and then the CNN talking heads bashed the progressives for expecting any kind of seat at the table.

We can have him completely neutered!

5. Reverse sexism
Unless they have someone in particular in mind, they have only a gender in mind for the position, not an individual.

I wish they would report on where the fuck the bailout money to the banks went. My brother has buyers for cars but the banks won't give out money...even to people with pretty decent credit. How about a report on that?

or as Bachmann stated: a penetrating expose! LOL

8. Isn't Obama allowed to choose people based on who he views
as fitting for the job at hand - someone he can work with - rather than 1 appointment from list A, 1 from list B, etc. Everyone can get in a snit over something. MSM is phishing for a negative Obama story.

10. Obama has put three women (3:6) in charge of national security. That's bold any way you slice it.

11. This swine compares abortion to the Holocaust. And if Obama didn't know that
then he and his team dropped the ball.

12. He also says that women should submit to men in all things
Why would that upset women's groups? :sarcasm:

15. Wtf, Obama has two daughters.
Whatever benefit his team thinks he'll get from this, they're wrong.
