COMMENTARY | The Washington Free Beacon is reporting that if anyone is conducting a war on women, it is the Obama White House. Women employees at the White House make 18 percent less of the median salary as do male employees.
Back on topic, the opinion piece doesn't really say if the women are working equivalent jobs. I heard Barack's secretary makes 90K a year, which isn't too bad in my book.
Maybe this will set up a good reason for Obama to replace Biden with Hilary Clinton or better yet, a rising star woman in the party to run in 2016 like Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Supposedly Romney is looking at a couple different women to be his VP, Haley the southern governor and someone else.

The Most Self-Discrediting Partisan Attack of 2012
The Washington Free Beacon is a rapid response operation that does some journalism in hopes that an aura of credibility will permeate its unbylined attacks; its staffers are being paid to turn inconsequential nothings into partisan zingers; and it all adds up to a new low point in someone's Washington, D.C., experience: he or she arrived ready to change the world, and eventually wound up scrolling through the people that an Obama campaign staffer follows on Twitter in order to discredit her by asserting that by virtue of following them she condones their worst behavior.
There have been a few threads about the republicans weakness, womans rights. I don't care how you slice and dice the issue. It is a problem for the right. This thread is a typical Rovian tactic, attach others on your own weakness. Simple. We will see more weak attempts to paint the left as against women, but we know what the real issue is don't we.... you see it here the way women are treated. Even ScienceChick, who always takes the highroad, get slandered by the neanderthals righties on this board..... what a bunch of cowards.

I predict Romney will pick a woman as VP...it's long past due that we had a woman in one of the highest positions. I would pick Condi but I know she wouldn't want the job.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Are you talking about turning inconsequential nothings into partisan zingers?
Stop the Republican War on Women!
Whether it’s denying half the population necessary health care, holding a House panel on contraception with no women on it, or suggesting that holding an aspirin between the knees is all the birth control women need, it’s clear that Republicans are shockingly out of touch on issues of fairness and equality.
Sign our petition, and call them out. Demand that Republicans drop their war on women. Gender discrimination is wrong. It’s time Republicans stopped trying to write it into law.
I demand that Republicans stop their war on women. Gender discrimination is wrong. Republicans must stop trying to write it into law.
Pelosi accuses GOP of waging 'war on women' in fundraising pitch
In the Democrats' latest fundraising bid, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday accused Republicans of waging a "war on women."
The California Democrat is hoping the GOP's high-profile opposition to President Obama's birth-control mandate will alienate women and independent voters — and lure campaign cash to the Democrats' coffers.
In an email blasted by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), Pelosi urged a $3 donation "to send a clear message that we will not tolerate or stand by while Republicans wage war on women’s rights."
"March 31st is the first quarterly Federal Election Commission (FEC) deadline of 2012 and the first since the Republicans’ unprecedented assault on women’s rights," Pelosi said. "The national media and our opponents will use our grassroots fundraising totals to measure the strength of our opposition to the Republicans’ War on Women."
