Nancy Pelosi's Ethical Hypocrisy

[Amazon 7]

Quote

Affirmative Action.

There you go again....

Are you really going to sit there and tell me that we have a level playing field in this country for ANY kind of position for women and minorities when it comes to hiring by the Good Ole Boys?????

I suppose there is no wage discrimination either....

Or even VERY SHORT men.
at least the military has a bit more of a level field that is somewhat based on merit.

It has nothing to do with "controlled". It has everything to do with "political affiliations"

Nope, women and minorities have the leg up.

Gee how come so many Women and minorities then.. make only a fraction thatn the typical white male in nearly every job category.

According to U.S. census data, for every dollar men earned, women earned $.76 in 2003, down from $.77 in 2002. The wage difference cannot all be explained away by factors such as experience, education, and time in the workforce. However, working women have a legal right to a fair and equal salary, per certain federal laws.

The Equal Pay Act of 1963: Employers cannot pay unequal wages to men and women if their jobs require substantially equal skill, effort, and responsibility and are performed under similar working conditions.

Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act: This applies to companies with more than 15 employees. Wage discrimination is prohibited on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, or disability.

Are You Being Discriminated Against?
Signs of discrimination:

You are paid less than men who do the same or comparable work
You have been denied promotions or training opportunities
You are kept from high paying jobs and professions
Can You Do Anything?
Yes. You have a legal right to file a complaint. According to Equal Right Advocates, if you suspect discrimination, you can do these things:





Want to try that fantasy again there bucko?????

Use whatever logic you like to justify your support of racial discrimination or sexual discrimination. Racial and sexual discrimination they remain.

>Right wing controlld mass media?

The idea of a right wing controlled mass media is as stupid as the idea of a left wing controlled mass media. We have a profit controlled mass media. If they can make money bashing democrats, they will. If they can make money trumpeting every detail of Clinton's affair with an intern, or supporting the rationale for war without doing the slightest bit of investigative journalism, they will. Doesn't mean they're controlled by the republicans.

Likewise, if they can make money talking about the culture of corruption, or carrying pictures of burning oil refineries in Iraq, they will. Doesn't mean they're controlled by democrats.

All too often, members of the victim culture in both parties choose the media as their latest oppressor. "We would be doing great in Iraq/would have won the election/wouldn't have had such a big stink if not for that pesky media that the other guys control!" It's more an admission of defeat than anything else.

According to polls I've seen, over 80% of the mainstream media vote Democrat.

We'll see as the story develops as to what the actual facts are.

The right wing controlled mass media is a lapdog to the rescumlicans.Oh dam, thank you, it has been a long day and I needed that

I don't buy the presented bullshit for one moment. I'll bet that the Republican Speakers of the House that preceeded Pelosi did exactly as she is trying to do now. They are pitching a bitch to make her look bad. It is all about power, and the perception of power. She can't back down because the rescumlicans win.

The morons fall for it, just like they did with the "I WANT MY PLANE!!!" bullshit. Anyone with a slight grasp of basic civics knows that the SOH is second in line for the Presidency, after the VP, and as such, gets a much higher level of security than your basic House member. Non-stop flight is safer and faster than having to stop for fuel. Your biggest risk in flight is in the airport area = smart folks do nonstops. The security concerns were why the decison was made BY OTHERS about what type of plane would be provided to the SOH. In other words, the rescumlican spin was presented as fact by outlets such as Lush Rimjob and Faux news, and the sheeple bought it, hook line and sinker.

Why would the truth be funny?

Anyone with the ability to basic internet research and the common sense to avoid the fringe elements can discover truth. It isn't that hard. You should try it sometime.

Refer to mnealtx's post.

Oh God, thanks again

Nice PA's by the way

I wonder how much can be explained away by experience, education, and time in the workforce???

90 percent?

95 percent?

99 percent?

Hmm.

I'll assume 100% - However, "capitalist" has zero correlation with either dem or rep. At least capitalist has a functional and productive meaning whereas dem or rep are just nonsense terms.

BV's point about media being profit controlled is the truth - the rest is petty bunk.

"Faux News" actually was pretty clever - much less childish than the other stuff. Whoever came up with that - nicely done.

Subject at hand - If Nancy is allowed a single freebie to use for a support companion any way she wants, then fine. I don't care if it's a spouse, ONE child, or a personal assistant.

Personally, I don't get to take anyone along on my business trips. Why should any member of congress get any better? I'm paying for it and I think zero is the right number.

Use whatever "logic" you would like to continue to support the REAL discrimination... its out there in NUMEROUS reports... you guys just cant handle the reality.... but you support your fantasy that everyone is out to get you because you are a white male in this society....the statistics show a far darker picture that shows its alive and well.. but that is just fine with you.

Just because the web site says it cannot be explained away doesn't mean it cannot be explained away. And most of it is easy to show - the focus on the 'wrong' majors at college, the need to be out of the workplace to have children (society values this, but the workplace does not), and a greater tendency to accept the salary offered rather than to negotiate for more.

I work in a group with 20 other men. The only woman in our group moved back to New Orleans last year (where I hear tech people can write their tickets). This isn't a white male conspiracy - the head of the group is Indian and we have blacks and Chinese as well.

Easy enough to leave Rather out of it and STILL find plenty of dishonorable conduct...

But if one of us would have done it.. it would have been time in the brig...or jail.. and a less than honorable discharge.. seem you do not mind that though...I thought conservatives were all about serving the country... when you sign on the dotted line.. its a contract.. and you are THERE till the END of the contract.. PERIOD.

READ IT this time...but I guess the truth is just to hard for you righties to stomach.. that some fucknuts fooled you so completely and utterly on so many levels.

I did read it. Don't necessarily *disagree* with the points made.

Also don't give much of a shit about training dates missed 30+ years ago... sort of like the Dems don't care about Clinton breaking his promised military commitment 30+ years ago or his history of sexual abuse.
