OBAMA ORDERS, “DO AS I SAY…NOT AS I DO”….
Once again we seem to be hearing that which amounts to being nothing more than the same kind of advice that we always seem to be coming from Barry "Almighty", our ‘Dear Beloved Leader’. And once again there will apparently be two sets of rules to be followed, one by Barry and one by the rest of us. Because at the very same time that he intends to sign two new executive actions aimed at narrowing the wage gap between men and women on Tuesday, it’s also very widely known that Barry’s White House pays its female staffers less than men.
According to what’s now being reported, the first of these executive actions will be an order banning all federal contractors from retaliation against employees who disclose or ask about their wages. Barry’s second executive action will require federal contractors to submit data to the government about their employees compensation by sex and race. By doing so Barry, I’m quite sure, is hoping to apply pressure on those in the private sector to follow suit, and thus be able to show, in this election year, that he his truly is on their side.
Barry’s signing of these two actions just happens to coincide, or so we’re supposed to believe, with the fact that tomorrow has been identified by advocates as being "Equal Pay Day". Done so, I assume, in order to somehow symbolize the plight of women and the amount of time they had to work before being able to make as much as men did the year before. Barry "Almighty" will sign these two executive orders at the White House. And in the process, and is usually the case with this guy, spew as much nonsensical rhetoric as possible.
According to some empty-headed ACLU bimbo by the name of Deborah J. Vagins, who is also the co-chair of some idiotic little group called the National Paycheck Fairness Coalition, "From making the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act the first bill he signed into law to these actions, the President has proven himself to be a true champion for women in the workplace." Oh really? She can’t be talking about the very same guy who has been paying the men who for him much more than he pays the women who do, can she? I’m afraid that she is.
This moron went to say, "Congress still needs to do its part and pass the Paycheck Fairness Act, but we’re one step closer to achieving pay equity thanks to this White House." Like I said, this genius seems to ignore completely, as liberals always do whenever it comes to anything that involves Barry, the fact that "this White House" can also be said to be guilty of never having paid women the same as men. This is all nothing more than another example of the hypocrisy that is so rampant amongst those who identify themselves as Democrats.
Because despite advocates’ cheers about paycheck equity, Barry’s White House has consistently paid women less than men for years. According to a Daily Caller analysis of "2013 Annual Report to Congress on White House Staff," the most recent available data on White House pay, the White House paid women an estimated 11.8 percent less than men in 2013. And the fact that these people can so easily ignore that fact reveals that their motives are nothing if not highly suspect. It’s not about women receiving equal pay, it’s about politics.
And it was in the year prior, 2012, that the White House paid women 13 percent less than men, and in 2011, according to the Free Beacon, women were paid 18 percent less. To be sure, all the analyzed years were better than what the federal government says is the current wage gap: 23 percent. So what we, more than likely, have taking place here is yet another attempt by Barry to minimize the damage from an election which has now been described by many as likely to be a bloodbath for the Democrats. So we’ll see if women are stupid enough to take the bait.
