Was Patty saying the fact male actors get paid more than female actors a violation of some “right” ?

Seems this scary mooselimb woman would have had enough influence on the White House to make sure that king Hussein’s administration was practicing equal pay for women.

Valerie, How about practicing something before preaching it to others .... you hypocrite.

How come no one complains that female models make more than males do?

Great now maybe she can get Obama and the rest of the Democrats to start paying women in their staff the same as men.

I believe the law says SS protection can be extended to anybody by POTUS executive order.
Axlegrease did too before he went back to Chicago.

So since she's all for "equal pay" does that mean she wants to normalize her salary to equal that of the lowest paid supporting actress with a similar amount of screen time? Equal work then.

Better yet, work for a fixed hourly rate applied to all actors? Then it's truly equal pay for equal work.

Or does she think her work is worth more than others?

I think she was saying we should all be paid as much as Oprah.

The states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to police employers for vote-winning, equal pay for low-information voters. So if these misguided, low-information celebrities really want the corrupt feds to win votes from such voters on that basis then they must do the following.

They must work with Congress to propose an equal pay amendment to the Constitution to the states. And if the states choose to ratify their amendment then Congress will have the constitutional authority that it needs to win votes by policing exployers for equal pay and the celebrities will be heroes.

Yeah. There were several levels of propaganda going on last night.

One that no one seems to be talking about is the fact that the Oscars are suddenly all about families. J.K. Simmons actually does have some conservative leanings so his comments weren’t out of character. What was out of character was the media fixation with families and the Hollywood types who suddenly decided to bring their families. Even the chef catering the event was interviewed and had his kids with him.

Even Lady Gaga was downright classy and very traditional despite the bugles tattooed on her arms. Long white gown, singing The Hills are alive with the sound of Music with tuxedoed and topphatted dancers. It looked like something you would expect from the Oscars in the 1950s.

What bothers me about it is the fact that it comes at a time when the left are trying to revamp their image to appear more traditional while still clinging to their rabid imorality. (Fool the people)

Why is it that most everything the left clings to is imaginary? If women actually did do the same jobs as men, for less pay, they would be in extremely high demand throughout the whole world.

Gads, liberals think everyone has no brain. Including other liberals. They spew equal pay for women without considering a few things:

1)Most women (historically) don't get/have the education that men have
2)Many women take time off to have and/or raise children at some point. Most men don't
3)Even their master, 0 doesn't pay the WH women the same as men.

Doesn't point 3 alone weaken their argument?

This is all about fooling the low-info Julias into thinking that the Federal Government can force her employer to pay her as much as the breadwinner/man who dumped her. Not logistically possible, but it turns ‘em out at the polls.
