Collins Report

By Kevin “Coach” Collins

Here’s another story that would be front page if a Republican was president. It’s being smothered by the Democrat controlled media because it exposes their master as a sexist hypocrite. Where are the hundreds of female journalists who should be demanding an answer as to why Obama pays women less than men?

His “do as I say not as I do” attitude has been the M.O. for Obama since his first day in office.

On July 1 a report on the salaries of Obama White House staffers was quietly released and shoved under the rug by the media. It showed the average female staffer is paid $9,168 less than Obama’s male employees. This is hypocritical in the extreme.

Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009

“Ledbetter” extended the time to sue for gender based pay discrimination.

Yet no one has asked Obama why this isn’t a violation of the spirit if not the letter of Ledbetter a bill he made such a big deal out of signing with less than ten days in office. No one has pointed out that Barack Obama campaigned on promises to do everything he could to equalize pay scales between the genders, and even mentioned “Ledbetter” several times.

This was the first bill Obama signed upon becoming President. In doing so he even committed the first violation of his promise to give Americans five days to comment on Congressional acts before he would sign it into law. When questioned about violating his own “five day commentary” rule, Obama said signing it was “too important to wait.”

Obama has no trouble dictating to private industry who it will hire and how much those employees will be paid. He even has a Czar for pay. Will the “Pay Czar” take up this disparity? Don’t hold your breath.

The Democrats’ stink of hypocrisy

Since he has come on the scene, Obama has continually shown himself to be a hypocrite in things big and small. But his presidency brings to mind Lincoln’s warning about no one being able to fool all of the people all of the time. He fooled enough people briefly last November, but he is quickly losing his ability to fool the majority of people. Now precisely because the media has squandered what little influence it had in its failed effort to cover up for Obama, when the nation’s frustration dam breaks there will be a tidal wave of lies washing over him and his party. Obama’s ability to govern will be washed away and sweep him out of office.

The stink of hypocrisy is hanging all over the Democrats and this is why they are sinking in the polls. This is getting interesting.
