"Sen. Obama's policies would make it harder for women to start new businesses, harder for women to create or find new jobs, harder for women to manage the family budget, and harder for women and their families to meet their tax burden."

Obama Camp Responds to McCain Comments on Women From the Obama campaign:

“Senator Obama understands that the challenges facing women and families in the 21st century are very different than the challenges of the past, but John McCain seems stuck in an outdated view of American families. Senator Obama believes every woman deserves equal pay for equal work. He has a plan to help working women by guaranteeing seven paid sick days to the 22 million who currently have none, and by providing child tax credits, additional after-school programs, and a tax cut for 71 million working women and eliminating capital gains taxes for 8.7 million women who own small businesses or start-ups. Senator McCain thinks the Supreme Court was right to make it harder for women to challenge pay discrimination at work, and he opposed legislation that Obama co-sponsored to reverse that decision. Senator McCain has suggested that the reason women don’t have equal pay isn’t discrimination on the job-it’s because they need more education and training. Senator Obama couldn’t disagree more,” said Obama campaign senior advisor Anita Dunn.

[jefferson_dem]

3. Given his use of the word "harder", methinks he's still reeling from that Viagra question.

n/t

5. He should be.

He's shown himself to be completely out of touch.

6. Well, we know he has a flimsy grasp at best...

of the issues that really matter.

2. BTW, John McCain called his wife a cunt.

4. McCain is just pulling things out of his a** and sounds like one, to boot.

And, yes, his a** should get booted, right out of this election.

What a sorry excuse for a candidate he is, Mr. McLawnDoctor.

7. John McSame divorced his first wife because she gained a little wieght

8. Yikes!

Make sure to read the rest of the article on McSame's get together with the ladies.

The event had a friendly, often lighthearted feel. The woman who warmed up the crowd spoke of buying clothes, losing weight and getting divorced and remarried (more than once).

Cindy McCain continued the theme in introducing her husband. She said helping run a presidential campaign was a good way to lose 30 pounds, adding that the white slacks she was wearing were two sizes too large.

The event was held in a converted warehouse, where some men's bathrooms were converted to ladies' rooms, forcing male volunteers to stand in line while the women's restrooms were wait-free.

It's like they took an issue of COSMO and converted it into a policy platform.
