McCain opposes equal pay for women
Try this one on for size:
Hmmm. The ultimate objective is no more lawsuits, I guess. Well then, let's do away with all anti-discrimination legislation. Oh, I forgot, the Supreme Court is already well on it's way to doing that. Women can't file suit for sex discrimination unless they catch it within six months of it's first occurrence. Right now, the Supremes are considering whether the aged should bear the burden of proof in age discrimination suits (you can figure out where the Bush court will take that one). I suppose we could just go back to the days of caveat emptor ("buyer beware") where the seller has no responsibility for anything. That would get rid of a few suits.
Oh my, I forgot. We'd have to do away with divorce too. Now, where would that leave John McCain?
