This from a national review column:
Those words were spoken someone called Mark Krikorian (no clue who that is, may have to google him in a bit) about Obama.
This is what he had to say:
Before you send me any burning bras, the problem is not with women leaders — the enemies of the Virgin Queen and the Iron Lady can attest to that. The problem is not even with the president having strong female subordinates. Rather, Obama’s pusillanimity has been hugely magnified by the contrast with the women directing his foreign policy and the fact that they nagged him to attack Libya until he gave in. Maybe it’s unfair and there shouldn’t be any difference from having a male secretary of state do the same thing, but there is.
So the problem isn't with the "nagging" women, its with Obama LETTING himself be "nagged". hmm.
He goes on:
Do you think Putin and A-jad and Chavez and the ChiComs are more afraid of Obama now? It was obvious to most of us that Hillary has more, uh, stones than Obama, but to have it confirmed so publicly for less-attentive foreign goons means they’re that much more likely to try to push us and see how The One responds.
Ah excellent... Obama is finally exposed for who he is.. a man with no "stones". And now all the "enemies" are no longer afraid of him because they all know that he does anything those "nagging" females tell him to do.
He thinks that taking advice from a female constitues being nagged into it and thus means men that do, in this case Obama, isn't a real man at all. Apparently real men don't hire women to work with them, nor do they seek advice from them. A "real man" would only rely on other "real men" to give them advice. Real men like Dick Cheney maybe?
What a total piece of idiocy. Sounds exactly what Rush Limbaugh would say. These republican males have some real issues with females. What astounds me is that any woman would put up with this kind of crap. But sadly they do.

As Gooserock correctly points out that Conservatives like this Mark person, have racist views about black men's sexuality and how white women respond.
