The President has the right to be a male. The same awful attacks were leveled at President Clinton during his second term as well.

As the nation continues debating just how sexist President Obama was yesterday for calling California attorney general Kamala Harris "brilliant," "dedicated," and "by far, the best looking attorney general," it's worth adding this context: Usually, when Obama says a high-ranking government official is "good-looking," he's referring to a man.

Introducing HUD secretary Shaun Donovan last February, Obama declared, "There he is, the good-looking guy in the front here."

At a speech last March, Obama pointed out his secretary of the Interior, Ken Salazar, by calling him "a good-looking guy.”

A couple of months ago, Obama gave a shout-out to the "outstanding Secretary of the Navy," Ray Mabus. "There he is right there — the good-looking guy over at the end."

Obama even extended his favorite compliment to the Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins. "I have to say all of you look pretty good without your playoff beards," Obama said during a White House ceremony. "They're pretty good-looking guys without all that.”

In short, Obama is an equal-opportunity flatterer, not a shallow, sexist pig. Calling people "good-looking" — men, women, Penguins — is just something he does. It's almost a tic at this point. He doesn't mean anything by it.

At first I thought Obama was standing up for principles. Now it looks like he just wants to flatter people. What an unprincipled wuss. When will we have a man of Clinton's moral standing in the oval office again?

Obama has apologized to Kamala Harris for calling her the best looking Attorney General. 

So Obama capitulates to the demands of the media once more. And I was hoping we had a principled man leading this nation.
