Last night Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow hosted a fundraiser for President Obama and the Democrats at her ritzy home in Brentwood, California. Paltrow is worth $140 million dollars and was raised in a rich, privileged family before making her way to the big screen. But that didn't stop her from classifying herself as a "working mother" concerned about equal pay for women, an issue Obama has been dishonestly harping on.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL! I didn't realize that gwyn had such a funny streak. She probably had a "real stern/serious" look on her face when she talked to the lyin' king too. Then they probably both fell to the floor laughing hysterically.

Gwyneth is a victim of the Republican war on women.

Who knew?

She wants to get paid the same as George Clooney.

Oh my Lord. Just ... oh my Lord.

She really just doesn’t realize how stupid she is, does she?

Oh my Lord.

This, from the woman who said:

“I think to have a regular job and be a mom is not as, of course there are challenges, but it’s not like being on set,” . . . . “I am who I am. I can’t pretend to be somebody who makes $25,000 a year.”

We should call out Obama and liberals on this issue of equal pay for women.

The Equal Pay Act of 1963 prohibits paying women less for doing the same job as a man .

Obama and others have been saying that women are being paid less than men doing the same job.

If this is true, then what has Obama been doing about this alleged problem for the last six years he has been president?

If there is rampant pay discrimination as noted, then Obama and Eric Holder already have all of the legal tools at their disposal, to file lawsuits and otherwise enforce the law already on the books.

These people create a false impression, vote Democrat and you will see women get equal pay for equal work.

The fact is, this law is already on the books. If you vote Democrat because you are concerned about this issue, they are not going to pass a law covering this, because the law is already there.

Obama should be questioned as to, since he has identified this as a major problem, why has he not been enforcing this law for the last six years????

"But that didn't stop her from classifying herself as a "working mother" concerned about equal pay for women, an issue Obama has been dishonestly harping on."

I'm concerned also Gwyn. So it seems that it would only be fair if you would just give some of your 140 million bucks to my wife and many other women across America. Gwyn should try to get a gig in the Hunger Games series. She would be perfect as one of the out of touch people that live at the seat of the government. It wouldn't actually be acting for her. She could just be herself...

With the money they have, they don’t have to smart. Just “act” like they are. Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye.

LOL! Sorry. I guessed wrong on thinking the title alone would have been sufficient warning.

I walk into my credit union... Working there are 2 men and over 25 women. No mention in MSM that there are FAR MORE women in the workforce than men.

College grads are 60% women, 40% men.

If the credit union’s payroll is analyzed 90% of it goes to women, with 10% to men.

I cry inequality against males and men. Crickets from MSM.

I read on another thread, that idiot comedienne Sarah Silverman, has said women pay a “vagina” tax, because of being paid less than men.

She makes gobs of money per picture. What does she know about working women and what they’re paid? She might have had a real job at one time, but she hasn’t had to work in some “common” job for some time.

Hollywood types don’t live in the real world.
