Obama and Clinton: Equal Opportunity?

AOL is presently featuring one of those typical pro-Obama stoires about Obama's assertiona that he is more "for equal pay for women" than John McCain--based on letislation (unexplained by the Associated Press), which Obama supported and McCain did not.  The legislation would actually would merely make it EASY from women to sue (whether they are right or wrong), by making procedural changes in what is ALREADY THE LAW.  As challenged below, I dare you to find read the full AP story on AOL and figure out what the legistaltion really does, and what the issue really is.  All the AP does is quote a single line of McCain's response to the effect that he "supports equal pay" (of course he does, since it has been the law from all of these DECADES), but opposes this legislation (again, see if you can figure out from AOL and the AP WHAT legislation) because it merely encourages lawsuits.

Equal pay for (substantially) the same job has been the law of this land for some 40 years.  In fact, employment discrimination in general has been the law of the land (by act of Congress in the same Cvil Rights Act that probited discrimination on the basis of race, for more than forty years.

It is classic Obama (playing his role as the leftist Messiah) to suggest that "equal pay" is HIS idea (undoubtedly causing some women to faint even as the Democratic Party failed them with Hillary, and Obama opposed her despite LESSER qualifications--a classic case of employment discriniation, and violating Obama' own previous statement, in Illionois, that he would be embarrassed to ask somone to vote forhim as President before he had proven  himselfin his newlwy elected job as U.S.Senator).

In fact, as a lawyer I SUED  Continetal Arilines more than THIRTY years ago for (allegedly) giving a job to a LESSER qualified male.  That is what the Democratic Party has done with regrad to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

The way this story is presented is totally biased BS.  The issue is clearly NOT equal pay.  IF a law were to say that women suing corporations wre enttiled to automatically win (without showing their employer did anyting wrong), would that be a good law?   For leftist Democratts, maybe it would be.  That is the ISSUE with regard to the legislation Obama supports--whether it makes it impossible for an employer to avoid litigation with any disgruntled woman employee--whether or not the employee has a legitimate claim).  I challege you:  See if YOU can figure out what the legislation actually IS (factually) from this article.  Then consider just how bad the despicable Associated Press is to OBFUSCATE the real "issue" here (remember, NOT "equal pay for equal work"), rather than illuninate it.

 

P.S.  Yes, I survived my "family reunion" (not groans of disappointment, please).  I am back.
