OCinBuffalo Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 You can struggle to defend it but this post will go down in history with the Dwight Drane hot sauce prediction post as one of the crazier rantings ever. I don't have to defend anything. You missed the obvious. That's all there is to say.
Wacka Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 This is why I watch Anderson Cooper. He has people on his show just so that he can call them out. Did his boyfriend give him back his balls??
Magox Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Anderson Cooper eat's Moveon's Executive Director for lunch for the claim of Republican's War on Women: http://www.cnn.com/video/?hpt=hp_t3#/video/bestoftv/2012/05/04/ac-moveon-women-health-care.cnn Wow! That was a Royal ass whooping handed down by Anderson Cooper.

Beating that twerp down was a significant non-event; he was about as incoherent and confused as DiN. I doubt he could answer "What'd you have for lunch?" without spazzing out.

I doubt he could answer "What'd you have for lunch?" without spazzing out. The only reason the Cooper video has any value to it is because he did that to a person at MoveOn.org. You simply don't expect anyone from the MSM giving anyone at MoveOn a hard time about anything. Next time, MoveOn would do well to give CNN someone who has the ability to think for themselves.

Isn't that like giving Sean Connnery to the New Jersey Gay Men's Choir?
IDBillzFan Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 The War on Women is really heating up. South Carolina AFC-CIO President beats up a pinata of Nikki Haley while Hustler today releases a large, doctored photo of S.E. Cupp with a dick in her mouth because she is a conservative woman. Desperation is everywhere these days.
IDBillzFan Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 They still make Hustler?!? Last I heard, you're not viable publication worthy of attention or respect unless you're on the shelf at a newsstand.

I'm sure Barry loves having Flynt's support.

IDBillzFan Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 I'd be surprised if Flynt weren't a Ron Paul supporter. I don't think so because I'm told last month's issue of Hustler had a photo of Ron Paul with a dick in his mouth, so....
Doc Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 I'd be surprised if Flynt weren't a Ron Paul supporter. Flynn has already come out and said he's supporting Barry.

erynthered Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 http://freebeacon.co...s-betray-lilly/ Typicle hypocrits. snip.. A group of Democratic female senators on Wednesday declared war on the so-called “gender pay gap,” urging their colleagues to pass the aptly named Paycheck Fairness Act when Congress returns from recess next month. However, a substantial gender pay gap exists in their own offices, a Washington Free Beacon analysis of Senate salary data reveals. Of the five senators who participated in Wednesday’s press conference—Barbara Mikulski (D., Md.), Patty Murray (D., Wash.), Debbie Stabenow (D., Mich.), Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) and Barbara Boxer (D., Calif.)—three pay their female staff members significantly less than male staffers. Murray, who has repeatedly accused Republicans of waging a “war a women,” is one of the worst offenders. Female members of Murray’s staff made about $21,000 less per year than male staffers in 2011, a difference of 35.2 percent. That is well above the 23 percent gap that Democrats claim exists between male and female workers nationwide. The figure is based on a 2010 U.S. Census Bureau report, and is technically accurate. However, as CNN’s Lisa Sylvester has reported, when factors such as area of employment, hours of work, and time in the workplace are taken into account, the gap shrinks to about 5 percent. A significant “gender gap” exists in Feinstein’s office, where women also made about $21,000 less than men in 2011, but the percentage difference—41 percent—was even higher than Murray’s. Boxer’s female staffers made about $5,000 less, a difference of 7.3 percent. The Free Beacon used publicly available salary data from the transparency website Legistorm to calculate the figures, and considered only current full-time staff members who were employed for the entirety of fiscal year 2011. The employee gender pay gap among Senate Democrats was not limited to Murray, Boxer, and Feinstein. Of the 50 members of the Senate Democratic caucus examined in the analysis, 37 senators paid their female staffers less than male staffers. Senators elected in 2010—Joe Manchin, Chris Coons, and Richard Blumenthal—were not considered due to incomplete salary data. Women working for Senate Democrats in 2011 pulled in an average salary of $60,877. Men made about $6,500 more. While the gap is significant, it is slightly smaller than that of the White House, which pays men about $10,000, or 13 percent, more on average, according to a previous Free Beacon analysis. The pay differential is quite striking in some cases, especially among leading Democrats. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.), who runs the Senate Democratic messaging operation, paid men $19,454 more on average, a 36 percent difference. Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D., Ill.) paid men $13,063 more, a difference of 23 percent. Other notable Senators whose “gender pay gap” was larger than 23 percent: Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.)—47.6 percent Sen. Jeff Bingaman (D., N.M.)—40 percent Sen. Jon Tester (D., Mont.)—34.2 percent Sen. Ben Cardin (D., Md.)—31.5 percent Sen. Tom Carper (D., Del.)—30.4 percent Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.)–29.7 percent Sen. Kent Conrad (D., N.D.)–29.2 percent Sen. Bill Nelson (D., Fla.)—26.5 percent Sen. Ron Wyden (D., Ore)—26.4 percent Sen. Tom Harkin (D., Iowa)—23.2 percent

If you're going to champion a bill (something I kinda agree on), get your own payroll in order to set an example. Wow.

Is there some sort of Congressional payscale or is this difference attributable to the congress people? If it's right, this website says Congress members determine it. http://www.legistorm...laries/faq.html Edited May 24, 2012 by John Adams

Are they actually comparing across the same or similar jobs, or are they comparing female college interns to male staffers with 25 years experience?

THAT'S the executive director??? He shouldn't get stoned before he goes on T.V. Cooper made him look like a fool, but as others pointed out, that didn't seem very hard...
