While Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign has produced a television ad criticizing Sen. John McCain’s position on equal pay for women and pointing out that women in America are paid only 77 cents on the dollar compared to men, Obama pays his own female Senate staffers, on average, only 78 percent of what he pays male staffers.

Women on McCain’s staff, meanwhile, earn 24 percent more on average than women on Obama’s Senate staff. McCain also pays his female Senate staff members a higher average salary than his male Senate staff members.

Women occupy seven of the top 10 highest-paid positions on McCain’s staff, and five of the top 10 highest-paid positions on Obama’s staff.

The numbers come from the most recent Report of the Secretary of the Senate, which includes the salaries of every member of each U.S. senator’s staff during the period of Oct. 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008.

This is the second consecutive six-month period reviewed by CNSNews.com in which McCain, an Arizona Republican, has paid women on his Senate staff a higher average salary than he pays men and Obama has paid men a higher average salary than he pays women.

NOW President Kim Gandy did not view the pay disparity as a problem.

“It depends on what positions they’re in,” Gandy told CNSNews.com. ... We don’t advocate people be hired because of their gender. We advocated people be hired and paid without regard to their gender.”


I agree with that 100%. Don't you ?

Oh wait, you all support an unqualified person because of those tits.

While it is true that McCain's top tier female staff is paid a markedly higher wage than Obama's, it is a difference that is well earned, according to campaign co-manager Lisa Steadwell:
"Oh, our pay is excellent, I have no complaints. We do have to go the extra mile for it, though, back rubs and such."
Martha Purman, polling research, states, "Yeah, well, I don't mind the occasional invasion of my personal space too much.."
Shahirika Johnson, McCain's public speaking coach, adds: "Yea, he be on me sometime, and I, like say, be cool yo, you like a dog wit a bone, fool! But it's aiight."

Man, Republicans sure are in love with hot sweaty man-sex. What's that all about?

Is there a single non-gay Republican in here? Is there such a thing? Is the Republicans' "Big Tent" really in McCain's pants?

Why all this talk of man-sex?

Chris, Is all

WhoZIT does seem to have an endless fascination with Obama and the faintest whiff of a rumor of the possibility of hot sweaty man sex.

I think it's true love. That's so sweet, don't you think ?

I can't speak for Republicans, because I've never been one, but I do think most Republicans are flaming heterosexuals. I prefer to think of myself as a Lesbian trapped in a man's body.

Until, your, well, you know - something arises, shall we say. And man, it just ruins the illlusion right there. You must really want that sex change very badly right about then.

Oh, but your mind races immediately to the thought. It must mean you are really hoping for it to be true - so it could be YOUR butt. I bet your heart is racing as quickly as your mind.

True love, I tell you, just like in Ally McBeal.

I'm not completely sure how the Lesbian thing really works, but I'd imagine the really butch ones never go anywhere without the proper equipment. Can you confirm that for me Rue?

Hey Butch - you just told everyone here you have those, you know, urges. Too late to try and shift them onto someone else at his point. Man up, or should I say butch up, to your own words.
