Third, note that in Romney's story as he tells it, this man who had led and consulted for businesses for 25 years didn't know any qualified women, or know where to find any qualified women. So what does that say?

that he needed to have found that binder much much earlier???

Errmm...not really.

Unintentional blunder would be more correct. What he said and the way he said it just reflects his attitude towards women.

some of my closest friends are women... in fact i married one.

Obama was right on target...this is not just a women's issue. I was happy to hear that

I don't understand the issue of what was wrong with that comment.

Ok... So first... We're talking about the odd turn of phrase itself. There were no women in those binders, there were resumes of women who would be qualified for cabinet positions. Not like I haven't said a few daft things off the top of my head.

The bugger issue is that this was someone who brags about all of his business experience and yet didn't know any qualified women, so he needed to contact an outside firm to harvest them.

It also conjures up and image of a Japanese mail order bride catalogue. It suggests that he was really just pandering and trying to randomly find some token women to fill empty slots.


(Personally, I was hoping people would jump on his "I know how to create 12 million jobs... I know how to do that" which was followed up an hour later with him angrily pointing at the president while spitting out "government cannot create jobs! Government cannot create jobs!" Not like I'd expect a pig like him to even give a shit if his soundbyte Lego pieces fit together into anything, but he does know we can hear him, right?)

Plus, he totally didn't answer the question. Should have been as easy question to answer, too, if you give even half a shit about pay equity.

Sort of like John McCain angrily wandering around the stage in 2008.

He looks scary here... wouldn't want to be in his binder :shock:

It also seemed like he didn't know what to do with his limbs...awkward

Somebody's gotta start up a parody band called Binders Full of Women. Have the singer wear a Mitt Romney mask, shove it on a mike stand and stuff a cigarette in it's mouth.

Just a cup of coffee would do.
