Another 'No We Can't moment for the Cream of Wheat poster boy. After babbling how woman should be paid as much as males last monday, Odumbo turns out to be paying them way less. What a Baboon.

Obama Pays Female Staff Less Than Males

Tuesday, July 1, 2008 8:29 AM

While Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has vowed to make pay equity for women a top priority if elected president, an analysis of his Senate staff shows that women are outnumbered and out-paid by men.

That is in contrast to Republican presidential candidate John McCain's Senate office, where women, for the most part, out-rank and are paid more than men.

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.)

Many Hillary Clinton supporters have claimed for months now that Mr. Barry's "commitment" to equal rights for women has been mostly lip service. Thank you for the proof. What is your source, please? Thank you.
