Wow! That first picture is frighteningly "KKK" looking! I don't even think they allowed a Jew in that photo. And they sent the guy who tried to not wear a black suit to Gitmo!

Obama's got to work on diversifying. I mean, Christ, 80 percent of the women in that photo are wearing red!

dude, the first thing we learn in college is that red makes us look powerful.

well, that's actually the second thing. the first is that black makes us look thin.

the third is to go to public restrooms in groups.

That explains why everyone says I look like a powerful woman when I wear my red Nationals sweatshirt.

I don't think I've ever seen Barbara Mikulski look so proud and happy. :-) How wonderful.

So the lesson here is...
our new Pres digs hanging out with chicks and the last one was scared of 'em?

I made the bottom picture my desktop background at the office. It's both inspiring to me and sends a good "you'd better be paying this biznatch her fair share, punk" message to any boss types.
