Look, the previous post wasn't to pick on the current administration. In fact, there are alot of easy to find sites out there that list really obnoxious, crude, and somewhat infantile quotes from alot of previous presidents and cabinet members. This one struck me as somewhat offensive, being a female and all that jazz. If I was a high ranking official in the White House, especially one that is under so much scrutiny (with every mistep and positive step forward Obama makes), I would be so very careful about what I say OUTLOUD during any private, much less public appearance. These days, it seems people can't get away with saying anything off the cuff, or in the heat of the moment without it becomming public, due to texting, the internet and easy fast exchange of information.
Why aren't they more careful? Why don't they respect their own highly place positions? Doesn't Emanuel realize that his administration is under more watchful eyes than any before them, due to the technology of today? It's not about being partisan, or the fact that "the other party" wants their downfall ( a position I take personal offense to as a conservative minded voter) - it's just common sense.
I wonder if Obama is getting annoyed yet at his somewhat immature sounding go-to guy. Are they going to have a private talk soon where Obama says "look, man, we've got alot of serious things to do for this country, and comments don't help us seem like intelligent people". I hope so. I hope Obama whips his men and women into shape and tells them to start behaving like the top ranking officials they are. Only then will the respect follow. He's got a few years left, and that's not alot of time.
