LOL, Obama never ever did his Homework ,why start now
Once you’ve passed a law for every move a person could possibly make what else is there for statists to do but get to work on passing two?
Let’s be fair about this.
Obama was obviously talking about the need for an equal pay law in his own country.
When you get to the point where they propose laws that are already on the books, you know that the government is already too big.................
Does not matter one single bit if it is true or not. He said it on live TV to the world. That’s all that matters. The truth will never get around to his believers. And if it did they wouldn’t care.
Next he’ll tell us that the reason for open borders is that there are no rules on limiting immigration. Then he’ll tell us there is no legal reason for guarded border crossings.
Really, what he did was tell a whole bunch of lies in one statement, and garner support from perpetually aggrieved “social justice” leftists.
Lie - law doesn’t exist
Lie - women paid less than men for same work
Lie - his opponents oppose equal pay
Cracked me up hearing that, was the first thing I thought of.
He’ll be happy to know that Republican women of that era were actually the main sponsors.
He should have talked about selective enforcement of laws instead.
Exactly what I said during his national ramble last night.
I believe that a strong majority of Americans watched “anything else” during the SOTU speech last night.
The vast majority of the actual viewing audience were “Low Information Voters” to whom these so-called proposals were being heard for the first time. To them, the presidential “goals” were in the classification of “Social Justice”.
He probably thought half a dozen new sexes to add.
Hahahahaha!
Dope.
Get used to this meme, it’ll run 24/7 for the next two years - Obama promising fluffy puppies and rainbow skittles for everyone, then blaming the Republican Congress when it doesn’t show up.
My PoliSci professor covered this within a few weeks of starting our class. It’s not a hard concept to grasp, and can be covered in half an hour. Things like this prove to me that Obama never got within 10 feet of a class that had anything to do with American government/history.
Hello Mr. Moseley. Thank you for providing more evidence that lawless Constitution “expert” Obama doesn’t do his homework.
Also, unless you can show otherwise, please note that the Equal Pay Act of 1963, and the FDR-era Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 which it amended, are based on constitutionally nonexistent federal government powers, both acts likely made to win the support of misguided voters for Constitution-ignoring Democrats during the FDR and Kennedy Administrations.
More specifically, regardless what FDR’s activist justices wanted everybody to believe about Congress’s Commerce Clause powers when they wrongly decided Wickard v. Filburn in Congress’s favor in 1942, FDR’s justices wrongly ignored that the Supreme Court had previously clarified that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution the specific power to regulate intrastate commerce.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
And since pay issues for intrastate workers are reasonably an aspect of intrastate commerce, both the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Equal Pay Act are based on state powers which the corrupt feds stole from the sleeping states imo.
