Answer 1

Women haven't reached four-star rank because by law they are excluded from serving in combat roles, which historically have been the path to the highest-ranking positions. That exclusion still applies, but with Dunwoody the Army has chosen to cast aside its customary limitations on promotion.

Clinton had Republican congress.

Answer 2

B/c the GOP is starting to sweat like g*y guys at a weenie roast. They know Obama is a shoe in.

Anybody with an I.Q. at room temp or better isn't going to fall for that latest GOP ploy.

Answer 3

They were too busy trying to fend off Slick Willy to focus on their careers. ;-)

Here's what else didn't happen under a Democratic administration: the capture of Bin Laden. Some African country was ready to serve him up on a silver platter, but Slick Willy didn't think there was enough evidence against him.

Let's hope we don't get to find out any more things that don't happen under a democratic administration for the next four years!

Answer 4

The last 20 out of 28 years have been run by the Republicans and you have the nerve to ask this question.

Answer 5

Because Democrats don't have to beg forgiveness from unemployed mothers; and employed wives, and give stimulating handouts - for selling our country and involving us in their p**s poor military strategy.  Just like the Week men that run the oppressive, and non productive capitalist businesses I have to work in, and the victims of ill run homes I have to deal with, they have to blame a woman for their failure.  I told them how to run the place, and she kept her mouth shut.  They ran it wrong just to spite me, and they know I will whip their rich, and sissy *** in front of their wives, and prostitutes if they try to blame us.

Answer 6

Proof that Bush's Admin. isn't that bad?

Answer 7

A better question may be. Why didn't this happen under one of the many previous Republican administrations? Do you know how many 1, 2, and 3 star female generals were granted under Democratic administrations? Food for thought.
