They account for one third of President Obama's cabinet, and some have been on the job for four months, but the women of the administration are still waiting for their first girls' night out on the town. The reason, says Janet Napolitano, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security: They're just too dang busy. But should things settle down in the summer, look for a gathering of the seven. "We haven't had any, like, dinner party," Napolitano says. "It's a good idea, but we just haven't had a chance."
