“Carme Chacon is the first woman to serve as Spain’s defense minister, and she’s seven months pregnant. Critics say Chacon, 37, has no military experience. Supporters say the appointment demonstrates that not only can a woman hold a senior position in government or business, but she can do it while expecting a baby.”

Socialists of course, get it all wrong once again. It’s not that she’s a woman. It’s not that she’s pregnant. It’s the “no military experience” portion of resume that makes her unqualified.

She has no military experience. Kind of like Spain’s military.

Perhaps that was why she was reviewing the troops.

So does anyone know why she got the job? Forget female, forget pregnant, why is she qualified?

LOL!

Proves that the defence minister is a real **** (rhymes with "wuss-y").

Cheers!

I'd say that it's her husband, Miguel Barroso. But that's just a guess on my part.

Presumably this gentleman:

Her husband is Miguel Barroso, who in the past has worked in Zapatero's press office.

Because she's a loyal member of the ruling party, and it wanted to make a 'statement'.

Can you imagine how she and Rumsfeld would have gotten along?

Utterly ridiculous, but look at her background - she’s a lawyer. Their administration has basically declared gender war on it’s own military force, and will soon fire salvos of legal challenges to their various rules and regs.
