lol, monovillage getting shit on this morning. Wouldn't have it any other way.
What I want to know is why the Governor is suddenly trumpeting his affirmative action in filling cabinet positions. Does the governor support affimative action, or not?
You can believe a nameless blog or you can believe the women that worked for Romney. I'll believe the women that actually know and worked for Romney myself.
Her perception is obviously skewed, she married you after all.
Ouch!!!Was it affirmative action when Romney rejected male applicants because they were men, and asked for women?
Was there a law forcing him to do it?
Christ... you folks can't even tell the difference between being forced to do something and choosing it for yourself...

hehe, he took credit for work already being done by other people.
Now one of the reasons I was able to get so many good women to be part of that team was because of our recruiting effort. But number two, because I recognized that if you're going to have women in the workforce that sometimes you need to be more flexible. My chief of staff, for instance, had two kids that were still in school.
She said, I can't be here until 7 or 8 o'clock at night. I need to be able to get home at 5 o'clock so I can be there for making dinner for my kids and being with them when they get home from school. So we said fine. Let's have a flexible schedule so you can have hours that work for you.

binders full of women...
Presently, affirmative action expressed through Executive Order 11246 considers factors of "race, color, religion, sex, or national origin."
so that's how Mormons find their wives
also..

But the complaint seems to be about the term "binders full of women"...
Romney did indeed receive "binders full of women"...
The complaint doesn't seem to be about when the binders were compiled or whether Romney had anything to do with it, or whether Romney is remembering things accurately.
It seems to be based on his use of that term, which seems to be an accurate term.
So the problem is that Romney was truthful for once
Mitt Romney, takin' special considerations to make sure the Women on his team can get home in time to make their Husbands a Sammich and raise their children.

How is it a lie? How is
"And -- and so we -- we took a concerted effort to go out and find women who had backgrounds that could be qualified to become members of our cabinet.
I went to a number of women's groups and said, "Can you help us find folks," and they brought us whole binders full of women."
mutually exclusive to
"There were more than 40 organizations involved with the Massachusetts Women's Political Caucus (also bipartisan) as the lead sponsor.
They did the research and put together the binder full of women qualified for all the different cabinet positions, agency heads, and authorities and commissions. They presented this binder to Governor Romney when he was elected."
? Hint? It's not.
The funny part is you actually think it's a bad thing to be more flexible to what women want or need in a career.
Clearly the female Chief of Staff that requested those working conditions was being misogynist.
To inject a little bit of reality word into your faux-feminist idiocy, women under 35 are more likely to be stay at home moms now than in 1970. That is, being flexible with working hours and condition matters more now than it did in the 50s sexist stereotype you were trying to play off of there...
