More Diversity.

On April 23, I wrote about how much diversity there was in the people Obama was appointing to key positions. "The Obama Women," as they are called, are mostly black women. However, last month Obama added some more diversity as he picked a white woman to be the new consumer safety chief, and of course, Judge Sotomayor, a hispanic, for the Supreme Court. On his Supreme Court pick, there were four women and one man on the short list -- the man didn't even get an interview.

Do you think Obama picks so many women because he's a little intimidated by men? Do you think he's picking them because he thinks they're not as smart as he is? Do you think he's picking them because he thinks they'll do whatever he says without question? Or do you think he's picking them because Michelle told him to?

I think all of those reasons Essie. I think it feeds that massive ego of his to have all those women under his control.
