Hype v. fact
The hype...
Obama will be releasing an ad attacking McCain on pay for women. In the ad Obama will claim that McCain opposed legislation requiring women receive equal pay for equal work. Phyllis Schlafly has been a long critic of such legislation, pointing out that it is rarely for equal work. From my own experience I've seen the same thing.
The facts..
"Barack Obama says he's for equal pay for women, but women working in his Senate office earn an average of $9,000 less than men. By contrast, women in John McCain's Senate office actually earn an average of nearly $2,000 more than men. The American people understand that real leadership for the change we need is all about what you do, not just empty words." -- McCain-Palin spokesman Brian Rogers

"The study that McCain's campaign cites, however, notes that a major reason for the disparity is that McCain has more women in senior, higher-paid positions -- not that women are being paid less than men for the same job."

Funny how both you and McCain left that out. Just goes to show that neither of you care about fact or truth.
LOL, so not only does McCain pays women more, he respects their abilities more...
You libs are absolutely hilarious.
