Bwahahahahah. Hypocrisy Watch O Day. John McCain says that the CEOS ought to give back the millions of bucks in severance packages. Um, except for the woman he *disappeared* last week after she said neither he nor Palin were able to run a corporation. heh.
But what about Fiorna? "I believe that Carly Fiorina is a role model to millions of young Americans," McCain said.
"She started out as a part-time secretary and she ended up a CEO of one of the major corporations in America. I'm proud of her record and so I want everybody to know that Carly Fiorina is a person that I admire and respect."
Um. Apparenlty he has forgotten that she ran HP into the ground -maybe it's another one of his senior moments.
Look, I'm all for women role models. But it is SEXIST to trumpet what a woman does or does not when you are talking about CEOs (gender neutral) and whether they deserve(d) their compensation. If a person, male or female, runs a company into the ground, is incompetent, is a failure, that PERSON doesn't deserve a nickel.. but to be fired. Which is what HP did to Fiorina.
And unless McCain thinks that a good role model for women is INCOMPETENCE, then he should be consistent and say that Fiorina should give back her dough, too. But then, this is the type of guy that thinks women that work for him Learn AT the Feet of The Master
