Despite what NOW says, men and women are different. As such, they gravitate to different occupations. Not many women out in the oil patch. And men don't neglect their careers by taking time off when their children are born.
Nature makes the sexes different, not Republicans.
But Uncle Barack would change that wouldn't he?
anything to take a stab at obama, eh? you are like an automaton, you just can't help yourself.
i actually agree with you...men and women ARE different. but the lily leadbetter fair pay act gives women who have been pay discriminated AT THE SAME JOB as their male counterpart more time to seek justice for any pay discrimination they faced.
but i forgot, you turn this one into a statute of limitations argument (which it is not based on how the bill works) and then say you only support longer statute of limitations on murder.
i'm sure you would tell your daughter the same thing if she faced pay discrimination.
and i'm sure you know why women "neglect" their careers....they have a VAGINA. perhaps you have heard of this magnificent organ.
Translation: The profit motive is evil. Everybody who is not affluent is entitled to free everything.
It's our right!
you said that, not me. i never said the profit motive was evil. trying to put words in my mouth is your folly.
what i was getting at is that dropping someone who has paid their premiums for years and years and years based on any conceivable technicality once they get sick, or even before, is EVIL.
if you are in the business of insuring my health and wellbeing as well my family, i am going to expect and DEMAND that you treat me and my family fairly.
it's healhcare, not a netflix subscription.
If green energy were economically viable everybody would already have solar panels on their own roofs. In order for alternative energy to be able to compete, the Boy Genius must first bankrupt the coal industry - just like he said he planned to do.
Enter Owl Gore with his manufactured global crisis and his Cap and Trade scheme/solution to scare the pudding out of kindergartners with tales of rising oceans and dead polar bears.
i never said anything about bankrupting coal, what you say is a 'manufactured' case for cimate change, or the competitiveness of alternative energy.
what i was referring to was the part of the american recovery and reinvestment act that basically turned the dept of energy into what is more or less a large venture capital fund for making smarter, alternative energies more viable within our lifetimes (while leveraging those evil private sector dollars at a nifty rate, to boot).
obviously yet another obama plot to destroy america, right aong with paying my daughter fairly and making my insurer behave ethically.
No one is saying they can't because the Constitution says they can. What many are saying is they should give our sensibilities the same consideration they demand from us.
all they 'demand' is to be treated fairly, like normal human beings who want to worship peacefully. treating all muslims as terrorists and saying they
shouldn't build somewhere tat they have every right to so as to not offend your delicate sensibilities means they should be able to do the same in reverse, which they do not.
besides, your contempt for muslims is well known. does not surprise me coming from a texan, where 25% of the population thought obama was a muslim when they went to vote in 2008. gem of a state. in the running with az as most regressive state in the union.
Saying the sky is blue does not make me an 'end timer.' And neither does my speaking the truth about our Dear Leader.
yes, truth and facts are fine. but your OPINION that obama's agenda is destructive, especially when it is consistent with these "china will own us", "the republic will fall", and "america will soon be a third world country" types, does make you sound like someone who does not get it - these are hard times, not end times. take a breather. chill.
