THE PRESIDENT'S IRONY

I have never come to this president's defense before.

And I seriously doubt if in this lifetime I ever will again. 

But some people, left and right, never tire of the PC nonsense. To begin with, the nation has bigger problems. And what the president said is a fact: the attorney general of California is an attractive lady. And so are many other hard working women in this country.

Does anyone really want a nation where all the female attorneys look like Gloria Allred? No offense intended, just a standard for comparison, like hamburger and filet mignon or Republican and Democrat or liberal and uber-liberal.

 In the last few years television has more than a handful of attractive female attorneys spouting legalese into the tube. Just about every network has at least one. Though the television executives on the left or right won't admit it, that's at least one of the reasons they're there.

And how about most of those attractive female and male television anchor people around the country? That just happens by chance? Attractive sells. It's in the human genetic code. And all the king's horses and all the king's men ain't going to issue an estoppel certificate. Though one knows lots of folks would like to.

And about those attractive male anchors, are we to believe every female who watches tuned in strictly for the news?  Truth is women chatter about men's butts, maybe not anywhere to the degree men focus on female anatomy. But it's a fact, one mostly likely in their female DNA.

How many does it take to establish a fact, 5 of 10, 8 or 9 of 10? Do what psychologists and other study-lovers love to do, slip in an unnamed photo of the California Attorney General with several other photos of females and take a survey from both women and men. 

How many women watch George Clooney movies strictly to see his acting skills? Not too long ago a national tv commercial ran of a guy wearing a particular brand of blue jeans walking down the street with several girls ogling as he went past. 

Though the commercial didn't say it, the implied message did. He looked good in those jeans and jeans are about butts. Just ask any woman.

If there's a real irony here and there is one: the president gets caught up in the PC nonsense he and his party are most responsible for foisting on society.
