CBS: WH 'Roughed Up By Its Own Pay Equity Rhetoric'
Even CBS pointing out hypocrisy of Obama White House. Shocking to see them off of the reservation....
"The White House is getting, as you indicated Norah, roughed up by its own pay equity rhetoric," reported Major Garrett. "In an analysis of White House salaries, which nobody here disputes, shows that the median income of female staffers is 88 percent of that of male staffers."
"Now the study also showed that men and women with the same White House jobs earn exactly the same salary. Now the White House said its gender pay gap is tied to job experience, education, and hours worked among other factors. This matters because those explanations, according to the Labor Department, explain a good deal of the gender pay gap nationally. The big difference in these stories: When President Obama discusses this issue nationally, he doesn't mention those other work variables, only the broad figure, that 77 cents for every dollar is what women earn compared to men," said Garrett.
"When the factors that the White House used to defend its gender pay gap are used nationally, the Labor Department says the difference in median wages between men and women shrinks to about 5 cents to 7 cents on the dollar."

UH OH, CBS and CNN are becoming racist television stations... I'm telling Alberta Sharpton and Jessica Jackson, I'm sure they're half dead by now... No racist drama to them is like no blood to a vampire.

The dumb asses will think they're still helping out and continue to write this off...

War On Women: Senate Dems Pay Female Staffers $5,500 Less Than Men – Dems Declare Today “Equal Pay Day”…
The hypocrisy knows no bounds with these Libs....
As President Barack Obama and the Democrats prepare to honor “Equal Pay Day,” Senate Democrats continue to pay female employees significantly less than their male counterparts, according to an analysis of Senate salary data in Democratic offices.
Senate Democrats plan to vote on the Paycheck Fairness Act on Tuesday, though the vote is largely symbolic given the unlikelihood that the bill will be brought to the floor of the Republican-controlled House.
Democrats have a lot of work to do in their own offices, according to an analysis of salary figures compiled from secretary of the Senate reportscovering the fiscal year 2013.
The analysis shows female staffers in Democratic Senate offices were paid just 91 cents for each dollar paid to male staffers. The average salary for a woman was more than $5,500 below the average salary for a man. [...]
Among those with the greatest disparity is Sen. Mark Warner (D., Va.), who paid his female staffers only 72 cents on the dollar compared to male staffers. The average female salary was $20,861 below the average male salary.
Alaska’s Sen. Mark Begich (D.) was even tougher on his female staffers. He paid his female employees just 71 cents on the dollar, for a gender pay gap of $23,504.
Sen. Mary Landrieu (D., La.), who just last week held a press conference on the issue of equal pay, was also found to pay her female staffers far less compared to males. The average male salary was $13,037 higher than the average female salary. Women made just 82 cents for each dollar made by men.
Numerous senators up for reelection have an especially large gap between male and female salaries:
Sen. Kay Hagan (D., N.C.): $15,343 higher average male salary;
Sen. Mark Udall (D., Colo.): $9,783 higher average male salary;
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D., N.H.): $6,267 higher average male salary;
Sen. Mary Pryor (D., Ark.): $5,799 higher average male salary;
Sen. Jeff Merkley (D., Ore.): $3,189 higher average male salary.

We shouldn't make a big deal about this because our elected officials just might tax us more money to pay people that they originally didn't think was worth it. So if anything, pay the men less.
