A few weeks ago, the former White House communications director Anita Dunn was quoted in the Washington Post as saying,
“I remember once I told Valerie [Jarrett] that, I said if it weren’t for the president, this place would be in court for a hostile workplace,” Dunn is heard telling Suskind. “Because it actually fit all of the classic legal requirements for a genuinely hostile workplace to women.”
And I saw it as a positive sign for Barack Obama. If there's anyone who he should be hostile to, it should be that moronic dishrag Dunn. This is the woman, you might recall, who idolized Chairman Mao.
Still, this brouhaha is a useful marker of how our national expectations are changing. There as a time when Americans would be surprised if the White House wasn’t a hostile workplace for women. Then there was a time when Americans would be surprised if the White House [w]as a hostile workplace for women. And at the current rate, in the near future, Americans will respond to reports like this by asking, “What’s a workplace?”
