The Presidential Boys Club.

Joe Scarborough went on a rant this morning about what a chauvinist President Obama was because he did not have any women among his new cabinet appointments. His rant and tete-a-tete with his co-host  was sparked by that pic you see accompanying this post. 
 
Poor Mika Brzezinski almost lost her Starbucks and was furious that Joe Scarborough would imply that President Obama runs a boyz club and does not respect women. I wonder if Joe realized that other than Mika, he was talking to a room full of men. In fact, I have never seen any women working behind the scenes on Joe's show.
Scarborough, of course, cried double standard, and he went on to cry a river about Mitt Romney’s "binders full of women" gaffe and how the MSM ran with it.
Dude seemed genuinely outraged that Obama would get a free pass on issues of gender equality. Memo to Joe: First start by respecting your own wife before you start pointing fingers at his Oness for his dearth of those of the more feminine persuasion in his cabinet. (I see you Mr. and Mrs.Klausutis. I want to know what happened to your daughter as well.)
 
So anyhoo, skip over the next paragraph Obamaholics, I still have to slam your boy. Mr. President, I know that you have a much better record than your predecessor (and most republicans for that matter) when it comes to these issues, but optics is everything. The president has a way of defaulting to the Ivy League boys club, or going for the "safe" pic when it comes to these things. It's as if he is always afraid of having certain folks in America say he is hooking up his peeps. Honestly, I don't know why, they are going to hate him no matter what.  
 
But back to Joe and Mika. Joe proceeded to rip Mika a new one and dared her to say that he didn't care about women. He berated, scolded, and embarrassed her for five full minutes before she relented and basically said that Joe was a good Godfather.
 
"You really — knowing me and seeing me work around here for five years — you want to call me a chauvinist on television?” Scarborough asked, with Brzezinski replying that she wasn’t calling him that.
 
“I said the way you’re acting is chauvinistic,” she responded, “especially the way you were handling this conversation. It’s not funny.”  

Do I act like a chauvinist in Congress, the way I ran my office there, the way run my office here? I am a chauvinist?” Scarborough repeatedly pressed, as they argued and talked over each other. “Read your own book!”
“You can’t throw around attacks like that,” he said, “because you’re embarrassed about what Barack Obama’s doing.”

(Update: Later in the show, Brzezinski apologized to Scarborough, saying his “entire career” backs up the fact that he is not, indeed, a chauvinist. She reiterated her point that she disliked how Scarborough handled the segment.)" [Source]
 
In other words, Joe please don't fire me, I need those checks. Anyway Mika, you might want to reconsider the "entire career" part. Just ask Mr. and Mrs. Klausutis. 
 
Finally, speaking of women, it's sad that the lame stream media is ignoring the House republicans failure to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Yes, it expired on January 2nd of this year. It's sad, because the VAWA was a good thing.
 
"As the 112th Congress came to a close, wrapped up in the drama of the so-called fiscal cliff, it failed to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. It was the first time Congress has failed to do so.

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) was enacted by Congress in 1994. Among its many provisions were tougher penalties for repeat sexual offenders, funding to train law enforcement in appropriate responses to domestic violence cases, and establishing the National Domestic Violence Hotline where victims can call for help and guidance. It focused attention on underserved groups of women, including immigrant and Native American populations.
VAWA created a federal rape shield law, which prevents a woman's past sexual history from being used against her in a rape trial. It provided economic relief to rape victims by mandating that they don't have to pay for their own rape exams.

Just as importantly, the enactment of VAWA publicly acknowledged the abuse suffered by hundreds of thousands of women every year. Not only did it put in place changes in how the legal system treated abused women, it was a statement that violence against women would no longer be met with indifference and ambivalence but would be prosecuted with vigor and diligence.
It was long overdue. The outcry against violence against women had reached a level that could no longer be ignored. The numbers didn't lie, and the Violence Against Women Act was enacted to combat them. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC): [Source] 

Joe, instead of the lack of women in O's binder, maybe you should have been talking about this

    Okay, I had some free time so I've started working on the official rap song for Wayne's blog. I'm a little nervous about unveiling it, kind of like opening night on Broadway. Here goes:

    -----------------

    My name is Wayne
    and I'm a Negro
    I want to be your friend

    I love all people
    except for Whitey
    I hates Whitey 'til the end

    -----------------

    That's a pretty good start. See how I put in "hates" Whitey to Ebonicize it? Negores love it when you don't speak English correctly.

    Wayne, you set this to a jungle beat and the white skank girls will be following you all around town. No, no... don't thank me. I'm just glad to help.

    Field, you just now criticizing the President for ignoring us Negroes?

    Obama has been ignoring and insulting us Negroes during his entire first term.

    When did you get the courage to speak the truth--from Tavis and Cornel?

    And from 'whom' did you muster the 'moral' integrity to do so?

    Not at all. Just because you are White does not make you confused. However, if you are White, Republican and think like McConnell, where you vote against your own proposed bill, then you ARE White and confused.

    However, I wouldn't worry too much about even that. McConnell knows that any white man is still better off than most Blacks in America.

    It's damn depressing to be Black in America.

    A lawyer was driving his big BMW down the highway, singing to himself, "I love my BMW, I love my BMW." Focusing on his car, not his driving, he smashed into a tree. He miraculously survived, but his car was totaled.

    "My BMW! My BMW!" he sobbed. A good Samaritan drove by and cried out, "Sir, sir, you're bleeding--my God, your left arm is gone!"
    The lawyer, horrified, screamed, "My Rolex! My Rolex!" LOL

    Dear Mr Field, your posts coupled with the brilliant and insightful comments made by anons and others here are much too valuable to be delayed for long moderation. So many of us can hardly wait to read and reply to your posts and comments by your readers.

    I find it painful to have to wait through the night, Mr Field. Surely you must know how important it is to post comments right away for those who are anxiously waiting with held breath.

    To make us wait is cruel and unusual punishment. We might as well be whipped like slaves in Django.

    Please have a little mercy on us. Post more comments before you go to bed; and post more comments around 1AM. And post more comments around 4am. It won't hurt you to do that at night.

    FYI: It is a known fact that the more a blogger interrupts his sleep at night, the more satisfied and happier he will be the next day. I know you are thinking this Bullshit but it is not. However, you must give it a try for 90 days before you start to feel the full benefits of what I'm talking about.

    Actually you don't even have to go for 90 days. 30 days will do.

    I probably shouldn't tell you, it might ruin the fun. But lets go with another one of your shallow thoughts.

    I personally hope you always are around and keep doing what you do.

    You are the quintessential stereotype and can be used by children as an example how not to become a hoochie mama who thinks shouting something over and over makes it true.

    ----------

    If you are trying to convince anyone here that you are either educated or successful, you have failed badly. You have very few rivals when it comes to displaying ignorance and insecurity.

    Just to recap: Spending your life in college collecting useless degrees does not make one "educated".

    Using the honorific "Dr." when never actually earning the degree does not make one "successful".

    You will never be a doctor.

    This is no doubt way above your ability to comprehend, but you are living proof.

    "Achievement can be inversely related to self-esteem. “American students, for example, took first place in self-judged mathematical ability in a comparative study of eight countries, but last place in actual mathematical competency. Korean students, in contrast, ranked themselves last in self-judged mathematical skills and took first place in actual mathematical performance.”

    Government officials who link self-esteem to better performance have gotten causation backwards. It is better performance that eventually leads to higher self-esteem, not higher self-esteem that causes better performance.

    Decades of liberal feel good policies have weakened American achievement and intellectual capacity.
