“It is fitting that with.. the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act we are upholding one of this nation’s first principles: that we are all created equal and each deserve a chance to pursue our own version of happiness,” the president said.

Sure. We're all equal and fully interchangeable. Let's just have Michael Jordan performing open heart surgery, Albert Einstein playing professional basketball and Micheal DeBakey designing nuclear weapons...or perhaps Michelle Obama could step in a quarterback for the Steelers this weekend. As long as everyone is happy.

“...or perhaps Michelle Obama could step in as quarterback for the Steelers this weekend...”
