"The Women of Qumar" is the 52nd episode of The West Wing.
It is C.J. vs. the rest of the senior staff—and the President—over whether to make public the possibility of an outbreak of mad-cow disease. C.J. is also up in arms about arms sales to a Persian Gulf state, Qumar, known for its poor treatment of women. Meanwhile, Josh tangles with a women's-group lobbyist over wording in a treaty concerning prostitution; Toby meets with veterans upset about the content of a Smithsonian Pearl Harbor exhibition; and Sam's concerned about a lawsuit against the President involving automobile seatbelts.
