    I also want to know why the President runs a White House that is a hostile work environment for women according to former White House communications director and Mao Tse-tung fan Anita Dunn .
    Why is the President waging war on women?

    Equal work for equal pay, so prove that the averages may be different but the pay is not the same. Should I give you a link AGAIN as to what levels of staff get what level of pay?

    I have also provided a link for the Dunn statement if you had bothered to read it.

    Romney spun his comments about hiring women to make it look like it was his idea when in fact it was MASSGAP who approached him and his opponent and other state candidates in Massechusets lobbying for more females to be appointed.

    That's the LIE, he initiated nothing.

    And so he pledged then actively sought out women after he won. Misleading maybe, a lie, no. Unlike POTUS who has great difficulty keeping any promise, he did what he said he would do.

    Did Romney support Lily Ledbetter? Or did he support the BLUNT bill?

    Tal is actually correct.

    The way the sentences are constructed Romney didn't bring us any binders full of women. It was the women's groups that did the bringing.

    The clumsy grammar is actually at the end of the Romney quote. In fact the three quotes provide in the article are grammatically poor.

    Obama is only interested in votes, Romney actually made good on his promise to women.

    My comment wasn't actually directed at one individual.The three quotes provided are in fact from three individuals.

    Making good policy decisions is not going to win him enough votes. He needs to create more anxiety.

    The exact opposite is true.

    R want to get us women home from work in time to make dinner for the family--and to give foot rubs to the master.

    So is that why he hired so many women as governor, to give foot rubs and cook dinner?

    Again you show why I can't take you seriously.

    Good thing he's rich. I don't think he will be successful this time either.

    Hello again, tal:

    The right wing doesn't believe there IS a war on women. That's why Romney is trying to COUNTER it with his new push for women... Yeah, I know... Doesn't make sense..

    So, if the right wing can believe there's NO war on women, they can CERTAINLY convince themselves that Romney is very PRO women...

    But, THAT is entirely NUTS. We don't want a NUT in the Whitehouse... I didn't like Bush.. But, he wasn't NUTS!

    Mitts 5 point plan is the same one GWB had, and his advisors are neocons from the Bush administration. He is more aggressive, less funny, and suffers from Romnesia.

    You tell me the difference!

    At least of the 112 justices on the SCOTUS, 4 have been women and half have been appointed by Obama. Ya think Mitt has a binder for that?

    Were they the most qualified ;or were they part of a quota system ? Did Obama find them in a binder ?

    They were confirmed by the senate, so why does it matter?

    Elena Kagan Supreme Court nomination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    63-37

    Sonia Sotomayor Supreme Court nomination - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    68-31

    Bi partisan agreement! What more could you ask for?
