The study's analysts didn't control for occupation...

No. It depends on your field more than on getting more education.

Right, but it's nowhere near 77 cents on the dollar. Which is a statistic derived from simple surveys of annual income that don't take those variables into account.

Truth. When I was a kid, I was the first at my school to have trolls when they reappeared en masse in the early '90s. They were a pretty major obsession and I created enough character/backstory/adventures for them, I could have written it down and produced a long-running TV show about them (if I weren't eight at the…

Wyoming, however, is far behind the curve, not seeing pay equality until approximately 2159.

It comes from a youtube interview in the show and then is used in the theme song. Even for people who agree with you about the use of "females" vs. "women" (which is probably most of the people…

Bitch jumped off a sinking ship while her dress was on fire.

Frankly - getting rid of state sanctioned marriage is probably a good idea. Of course, there will need to be all sorts of work done to clean up the books. Family and relationships don't fit into a well defined box anymore and clearly anything stretching the definition causes decades and decades of strife.

Can I dislike Clinton AND the GOP dipshits?

This site is full of lefties and they seem to dig Hillary just fine. For some reason, they don't care so much that she supported Bush's war, Bush's Patriot Act, her husband's ban on gay marriage, her husband's slashing of welfare.

You cannot run a campaign with only yes men. The email scandal would never happened if someone would have pointed it out to her. She would not have been taken in 2008 if anyone would have engaged her in reality of what the country wanted.

UMM 15+6= 21...not 23... I think you'd get left at the altar, too.

Um, 15+6 = 21 , not 23.

Sounds like a wonderful affirmation of the great American pastime: Not Reading Things.
