It was posted in the thread "GOP committee chair recommendations."
You should start a "Important things in the world today" if you're not satisfied with it.

WASHINGTON -- After taking heat for stacking House committee chair posts with all [angry] white men in the next Congress, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) appears to have found his binder full of women.
Boehner announced Friday that Rep. Candice Miller (R-Mich.) will chair the House Administration Committee -- a committee that Miller wasn't even on until now.
Given that Miller wasn't on the committee before, Boehner's move is a fairly transparent response to the criticisms he took -- also from some in his own party -- for failing to tap any women or minorities for committee chair slots. Many called the all-white, all-male lineup of committee chairmanships a bad move, given that Republicans are trying to appeal to both of those groups post-election.
