Answer 1

The article goes on to say McCain pays the women on his staff more than the men. I guess he hates his own gender. That's probably why he chose a female VP.

What I just wrote makes about as much sense as claiming Obama is a sexist.

Answer 2

Don't believe everything you read on newsmax.com.  It's controlled by Rove-type people.

Obama pays equal pay for equal work.

Answer 3

Because Obama is a Muslim. Women are worthless to him  

Answer 4

Wow, amazing how I can find this all over right wing sites and blogs but nothing mentioned anywhere else to get the other side of this story.

Answer 5

because women are not worth as much in his opinion, didn't you notice that he passed over Hillary for th VP spot?

Answer 6

Could it be because he's sexist?

Just a guess. . .

Answer 7

Because typically Liberals can do no wrong in their own eyes and he knows it so he gets away with it. I'm surprised he doesnt make them cover themselves from head to toe and fan him with big palm leaves. Im sure goofy Liberals would still cheer and wave Obama banners.

Answer 8

because he is a egotistical male chauvinistic pig.
