In reply to the discussion: Pic Of The Moment: Rep. Who Gave GOP SOTU Response Tells Big Lie About Support For Women [View all]Marthe48
(16,963 posts)Her lie doesn't stand: if she supports equal pay for equal work personally, she certainly doesn't support it politically. If she personally supports equal pay and yet can't bring herself to vote for equal pay laws, she doesn't have the courage of her convictions and isn't fit to have a leadership position. Do Congresswomen earn as much as Congressmen? In order to make the Congresswomen like this one understand what the pay disparity means, should they be paid .77 for every $1.00 a Congressman makes? Would they like earning less than their male counterparts? If they got paid less than the Congressmen, would they support equal pay more strenuously? Are they like the pigs in Animal Farm? "Some of us are more equal than others?"
And like other Republicans who routinely lie, does she understand about video tape, the Congressional Record, Roll Call and other permanent historical records that can be referred to by any interested person and even quoted from on TV and in newspapers? Is she stupid as well as dishonest? And she has a following of constituents who are ok with the lying and the stupidity? And the same constituents are patriotic God-fearing Americans? There is just so much wrong with this.
