the obama supporters are in full jealousy mode.

The obama camp is distorting McCain stance on equal pay. In fact McCain pays his female staff more than the male staff. In obama's camp he pays the females less than the males. don't believe me...look it up.

I don't get it, can you really just lie about your record that easily and get away with it? "I have worked my whole life fighting for civil rights, and that has been my record." Yes he even voted against the MLK holiday, who is stupid enough to do that! "As a matter of fact I received the highest award from literally every veteran's organization in America." Even though he got a 'D' from the AIVAs and voted only 20% with the DVA and now this?!

The man lies as much as Bush/Cheney do.

McFlip for equal pay after he was against it? I think he wants votes.

McFlop? Sorry for being straight with you: it's payback time for you and your party.

"In April, McCain opposed a major Senate bill seeking equal pay for women... In 2000, McCain opposed an amendment that aimed to 'provide more effective remedies to victims of discrimination in the payment of wages on the basis of sex.' In 1985, McCain voted against a study to investigate pay differences among federal employees, and determine whether they were the result of discrimination."
