I don't think you're going to be liking most of his appointments in that case.

I'm not remembering whom it was Spence...
just that when she was over their doing her job
they blew her off and didn't even show up....
~
i'll have to look for that... granted she has confidence and power... no question there,
but just by being female she creates tensions
and they (certain leaders)
don't want to be talked down to
by a woman...

Bill Richardson on the other hand puts them all at ease

I know.. his chief of staff is a great example of that.


hmmm.

Sex schmex - jesus, at least the Dems affairs are heterosexual and the GOP...well...:bshake::humpty:

Hey, not that there's anything wrong with that - it's still pretty much a free country regardless of Bush's best efforts.

Honestly, in my lifetime the rule on political scandals has always seemed to be:

- If it's a Democrat, it's sex,

- And if it's a Republican, it's fraud, thievery, chicanery, abuse of power and an all out assault on the rights granted to us by the Constitution.

Sex always seems to be secondary at best to members of the GOP. Gotta be a WASP thing, I dunno, we've never had a Republican in the wood-pile in my family so I wouldn't really know :hihi:

if all the foreign leaders had to come to this country

that would be one thing....

but going over there they have more clout and attitude.

THAT's the voice I hear in my head all the time!:laugha:

I can see pantsuits becoming a global fashion statement.

Anyone remember Wilbur Mills, and his stripper friend, the Argentinian Firecracker? :buds:

There was a guy who went down in flames, with style :humpty:

Wilbur and the Firecracker flamed out in the Tidal Basin in DC. Now THAT was an epic night out!!

Okay, Karl, ya got me there - but at least they don't make any bones about it...ooops, probably not the right thing to say...

I guess it's the hypocrisy issue for me - many of these Republicans who were outted by being caught in the act had previously taken very strong stances against that behavior :hs:

Barney is frequently seen down at the MM clinic i've read.

The fact is the aunt was a very important person in his life and not a distant relative. The guy could not get a job in the secret service.He couldn't pass a background check for a lot of jobs.

Very important? Based on what?
