As predictable as CAIR crying “Islamophobia.”
(Daily Caller) — Women advocates, both liberal and conservative, are frustrated by the media’s fascination with the narrative that for the first time in American history, women, not men, were supposedly key in pushing for the use of military force against a foreign government.
Reports highlight that the three-woman diplomatic team of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice and the Office of Multilateral and Human Rights Director Samantha Power pushed the male-dominated administration to take military action against Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi.
Many women are not impressed, believing that it is somewhat sexist and condescending to be surprised that a woman could make a traditionally male decision.
According to The Nation’s Katha Pollitt, the very fact that people are pointing out that it is odd for women to push for military action is sexist in and of itself.
