    Well that's an unbiased site, it is using the same lame statistics the idiot woman used in her question. I can assure you, if you are a woman as an associate at Cravath, she makes the same $160,000 year that a man does. If she doesn't make the hours to get her bonus, she will make less.

    What the hell is this question?

    Jesus, there are so many other issues than to ask this.

    So she's an idiot because she wants equal pay?

    This. We bend over backwards to hire and retain women. They earn the same. They leave sooner because they cant/won't hack the hours.

    No.
    A waste of time.

    She is if she doesn't perform EQUAL WORK. Is this that difficult to understand?

    Agreed. Might as well ask if she was an ice cream cone, what would he do to her.

    Did she say she doesn't want equal work? NO

    This is really embarrassing. I don't know how anyone can want to vote for either of these guys

    Agreed. This is a trainwreck.
    Obama goes after Romney on China, but he screws it up.
    Go into the policy on how difficult it would be to press China, and that it is easy to talk, but harder to act. Instead, he uses a cheap attack.

    Leaving at 6:00 to pick up your kids while someone else pulls an all-nighter is not equal work, and it happens often. One of my best friends at my old shop had her own contract with the firm - she was a partner but she made less than most senior associates because she had three young children it was important for her to be at home at night. So since she made $150,000 while a male senior associate pulled in $180,000, that's discrimination?

    Get of the Points gentlemen.

    Then again, these questions just suck.
    On another note, Verlander looks sick.

    Anyone who thinks Romney is winning....go read reactions from Republicans pundits. They are either stone silent or talking about how the President is angry

    MR is polite when he is supposed to interrupt (during when there is supposed to be back and forth), then tries to make up for it when it is time to move on. Mod should probably try to force more banter because it's how this dumbass format is supposed to work.

    Plus, as he talks now it's going to even back up

    Actually he isn't


    Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump
    Obama is looking rhetorical and weak. @MittRomney is looking strong and sharp.

    No one wins this God awful train wreck.
    What the hell has any of them said that has swayed undecided?
    They have just alienated them.

    Hell, I can't stand either of these guys right now.
