Book: Women in Obama White House felt excluded and ignored (Dunn & Romer)
Washington Post ^ | September 16, 2011 | Nia-Malika Henderson and Peter Wallsten

Posted on 09/16/2011 3:25:43 PM PDT by Seizethecarp

A new book claims that the Obama White House is a boys’ club marred by rampant infighting that has hindered the administration’s economic policy and left top female advisers feeling excluded from key conversations.

In an excerpt obtained by The Post, a female senior aide to President Obama called the White House a hostile environment for women.

“This place would be in court for a hostile workplace,” former White House communications director Anita Dunn is quoted as saying. “Because it actually fit all of the classic legal requirements for a genuinely hostile workplace to women.”

“I felt like a piece of meat,” Christina Romer, former head of the Council of Economic Advisers, said of one meeting in which Suskind writes she was “boxed out” by Summers.

Well, what do you expect when you work in Islamic-oriented organization?

“The president has a real woman problem,”

No sh&t Sherlock. We knew that years ago. Hillary found out the hard way.

Are you suggesting that there might be an ISLAMIC connection with this phenomenon?

Bingo!

Here’s a little something that might explain a lot about Obambi (Deer Leeder) and his relationship with women... and such... (if you can stand it):

“Ann Barnhardt ‘Islamic Sexuality: A Survey of Evil’ Part 2 of 4” (You Tube)

If you have the time, watch all 4 parts of her lecture.
This woman is a hoot, and pulls no punches on the ROP!
Were I young and single again, I’d be in love!

Sorry, one daughter. I don’t know what gender you are, your homepage suggests nothing. Your post read like a man’s but if I’m wrong I sincerely apologize.

Yes, many people believe Rahm and Barry are gay - surely you’ve been on FR long enough to know that, right? I believe these broads are suggesting that. For further info, go to Hill Buzz out of Chicago which will tell you all about the bathhouses of Boystown and Barry and Rahm’s romps.

And I don’t believe you can compare your daughter who is a CPA to working in the White House, lol! Others here think it’s silly because two to three men ganged up on these women. The President of the United States and his Chief of Staff! Not exactly middle management at Price Waterhouse.

Personally, I’m thrilled these women went to print with this story and the Washington Post picked it up.
