No, it's about fairness

Yesterday, republicans in the Senate voted unanimously against the Paycheck Fairness Act--and then claimed that the Democratic vote was just "politics...so [Democrats] can use it in campaigns."

No, it's about what the name implies--fairness.  The latest study shows that as of 2013, women still only earn 78 cents for every dollar a man earns.  There is no good reason for the gender wage gap to be so large--other than that the republican party is happy to continue its war on women and workers to allow its wealthy benefactors to keep feeding at the trough of avarice.

A recent poll from ABC News and the Washington Post, shows the republican party with an approval rating of 21% and and a disapproval rating of 72%.  Someday some smart son of a bitch is going to figure out that in election races we should be running ads against the republican party and not just individual candidates--guilt by association, so to speak.  Think of it--immigration reform, minimum wage hike, paycheck fairness, marriage equality, the right to choose.  It's a plethora of issues that the majority of Americans agree with us on and we can brand republicans with a scarlet "A" for being assholes.

Because again and again they show that, en masse, republicans flat do not care about average Americans.
