Yesterday we talked about how I was wrong about Congressman Anthony Weiner, D. of NY, and whether what he did rises to the level of a cause for his resignation. Should he resign? Hell no! He will probably be re-elected because his constituents are happy with the work he has done on their behalf. Tony is a fighter, and he truly mixes it up with his opponents - all for his constituents. I named  at least 12 Republicans, and only some of their scandals. I could write a book on Henry Hyde alone. And Newt Gingrich? The gloves are off, baby. So today I'll give a few more minutes toTony, why he shouldn't resign, and a couple of Republican scandals that were ignored, swept under the rug, or pushed aside, and now forgotten by yet some other scandal - namely Henry Hyde's.

Yesterday, we didn't get to all the reasons why I feel that women make better leaders. One of my favorite quotes -and I may be paraphrasing it here - is, "Women half to work twice as hard as men to get half the recognition. Fortunately, that isn't difficult." I have tried to find the actual quote, and it has been attributed to many women, including Charlotte Whitton, the former mayor of Ottawa. Maybe you can help me find the original, and it's "author."

I'd like to explore with you why it is that as of 2010 there were only 26 women in CEO positions within Fortune 500 companies.

I hope you'll join me.
