Obama is fucking Lilly Ledbetter up the ass in the White House, and you libtards want to whine about binders?he was asked a fairly simple question about what his position was on the ledbetter law. he went into a diatribe about how he had binders of women brought to him and then went on to talk about women needing flex time.
i'm sorry... what part of that does someone like you actually think means he supports legislation assuring equal pay for equal work?
It really was awkward when he answered that question in that manner...
because it really shouldn't have been so difficult for him to say "of course i support equal pay for equal work"
the fact that he couldn't spoke volumes.
But President Obama's own record on closing the gender pay gap is less than stellar. Using late 2011 figures, the latest available at the time, The Washington Times earlier this year surveyed 121 White House employees who were paid at least $100,000 and found that 47 were women and 74 were men. That is only slightly better than in 2003, the third year of the Bush administration, when 39 of the top 121 employees were women.
When all White House employees are considered, the Obama administration's record dims a bit further. Female employees earn a median salary of $60,000, roughly 18 percent less than men, whose median salary is $71,000.
And statistics don't tell the whole story. Despite progress on closing pay disparities and hiring women for senior roles, the president has incurred persistent criticism that women in his White House for the most part are kept out of the inner circle.

you might as well have answered, 'but,but,but". It would have meant the same thing.

Sorry, but that doesn't change the gross inaccuracies in his debate claims.

Oh wait thats what this thread is about?
"Someone like me"?
What's next?
"you people"?
Does Obama sptt. Equal pay?
But data from the Obama White House’s 2011 annual report show that female staffers there earn a median salary 18 percent lower than that of men.
And nearly four years ago, at the height of the 2008 election season, Scripps Howard syndicated columnist Deroy Murdock wrote that female staffers in Obama’s U.S. Senate office, too, were shortchanged.
“Obama’s average male employee earned $54,397,” Murdock determined from online Senate salary records. But the future president’s “30 female employees … [earned] $45,152, on*average.”
By contrast, 2008 Republican presidential nominee Sen. John McCain paid his female staffers higher average salaries than his male employees at the time, with women earning an average of*$55,878 and men taking home*$53,936.

Democrats focus on equal pay issue while Obama White House pays women less - Yahoo! News
Maybe, someone should have asked him, then candy could have followed up with this "fact"......
i'm sorry...an article from the daily caller isn't very compelling to me and shouldn't be to anyone else.
the reality is that the president signed the ledbetter law which was only necessary because the far right judges on the court eviscerated employment laws in the ledbetter case.
and if romney were elected, he'd appoint more judges like that... and if an amendment came to him which would cut the legs off of the ledbetter law, he'd sign it.
and ultimately, that's why he couldn't say that he supports the law.... because all those people telling their employees that they'll lose their jobs if they don't vote against their own interests don't want it.

Or.....oh oh.....Time magazine, does that pass muster Jillian?
Nearly every professional woman has had the experience of saying something in a meeting, receiving no response, and then listening as a male colleague offers the same thought or suggestion minutes later to great acclaim. The first time it happens, she feels slightly foolish and is a little unsettled. Did I say that out loud or just in my head? Maybe he made the point better than I did. The second time it happens, she gets frustrated. The third time, she gets angry.
Look at the senior women meeting with Obama in this White House photo*at a dinner they called to discuss their invisibility. Look at their faces and body language.*They are pissed off.
And again, the pay disparity too:
I knew the problem wasnt a lack of women on staff at the White House. A 2009 analysis of White House salary data did find that while women outnumbered men in the lowest salary brackets, there were only 58 women in the 142 highest senior staff positions at the Obama White House. But those 58 were still a huge leap over the 32 highly-paid women in George W. Bushs White House in 2007. Even so, it didnt matter how many senior women were on staff if they werent in the room with the boss when it mattered. There, a comparison with Bushs White House is also instructive. Valerie Jarrett is obviously a key member of Obamas inner circle, but her role is largely a personal one, to protect Obamas brand. For the most part, she does not fill the same position of political or policy guru that Karen Hughes and Condi Rice respectively did in Bushs brain trust.

that number dropped to 55 in 2011. So it has gotten even worse.
sorry , you need stop now, they need to HEAR Romney say- he supports Equal Pay etc. ......Events? Deeds? Meaningless in the land of the Unicorns.
you might as well have answered, 'but,but,but". It would have meant the same thing.Sorry, but that doesn't change the gross inaccuracies in his debate claims.
Romney lied on stage about directing that the "binders full of women" be created. Without asking for them, Willard was given the binders...making his binders story a lie. What you posted has nothing to do with my statements. Much like Reversible Mitten's answer had nothing to do with the question.
