CNSNews.com) - Non-intern female employees did better working on the Senate staffs of John McCain and Hillary Clinton during the latest public reporting period than they did working for Barack Obama, Cybercast News Service determined through an analysis of payroll data published by the Secretary of the Senate.
On average, women working in Obama’s Senate office were paid at least $6,000 below the average man working for the Illinois senator. That’s according to data calculated from the Report of the Secretary of the Senate, which covered the six-month period ending Sept. 30, 2007. Of the five people in Obama’s Senate office who were paid $100,000 or more on an annual basis, only one — Obama’s administrative manager — was a woman.
The average pay for the 33 men on Obama’s staff (who earned more than $23,000, the lowest annual salary paid for non-intern employees) was $59,207. The average pay for the 31 women on Obama’s staff who earned more than $23,000 per year was $48,729.91. (The average pay for all 36 male employees on Obama’s staff was $55,962; and the average pay for all 31 female employees was $48,729. The report indicated that Obama had only one paid intern during the period, who was a male.)
McCain, an Arizona senator, employed a total of 69 people during the reporting period ending in the fall of 2007, but 23 of them were interns. Of his non-intern employees, 30 were women and 16 were men. After excluding interns, the average pay for the 30 women on McCain’s staff was $59,104.51. The 16 non-intern males in McCain’s office, by comparison, were paid an average of $56,628.83.

Boys raised in Muslim cultures (such as Indonesia) learn to distain women early.
Remember how he condescendingly he treated Hillary Clinton during that New Hampshire Primary debate?
This is what FR is all about!
Good to see you home and healthy again!
Well, she had a lot of responsibility in the campaign: she had to handle all of Edwards' deposits.
I don't know. I'd think Michelle would be "payback" enough, especially after he loses to his chosen adversary, a (soemewhat) typical white woman. Gives me the willies just thinking about it.
Let's hope the kids shun their parents theology of racism and hatred, and live a life with their hearts filled with Jesus's Love.
I’m sure this is important for the campaign, but we need also to take into account that salary scale increase by experience. Obama has been in office only for 4 years, while Hillary 8 yrs and McCain more than 20 yrs.
Save for future reference. Obama discrimates againsts women...whoda thunkit.
no doubt about it
he is sexist and racist also arrogant and elitist.
Just how this man can get any votes is beyond me.
Even when I see a yard sign or sticker I have the urge and have done to ask them why they support someone who is racist and sexist.
tell you what anyone who votes for this man is voting for racism , sexism and elitistsm and they should be ashamed
This article needs to be posted over at the Hillary Supporters for McCain/Pain website. They will push this into the national spotlight.

Dems- the gift that just keeps giving....
Now this is news ...
This should be made into a ad ..
Obama should have put Elliot Spitzer on his staff - that would have raised the average paid to women significantly...
Gotta get this news out - AMAZING.
Does anyone post on that Hillary Forum? :-)
That's the truth, but the RATS use "apples and oranges", as "well as out of context" statistics all the time.
It's about time it burned them.
Why isn’t this on CNN?????????? How freaky.
That only matters in raw numbers, you look at the relative pay scales within each office.
