I'd like to apply for the now vacant house cleaning position at Meg Whitman's place. $23 per hour for a maid. Wow. I definitely give her credit though for treating her employees generously, unlike most employers nowadays, who expect you to do the work of 2 people for the wages of 3/4 of a person. Good for you Meg, you sound like a decent human being to me.
For those of you unfamiliar with the story, she's the Republican candidate for governor of California. The one the man hating, socialist, feminazi attorny Gloria Allred is trying to crucify over having an illegal alien housekeeper. Said housekeeper worked for Whitman for 9 years until Whitman found out she was an illegal.
I'm sure having to fire her created conflict for Whitman, she obviously must have liked the woman or she wouldn't have kept her 9 years and paid her that much. However, she knew she had to do it because of being in politics.
Allred (a Jerry Brown campaign contributor) and the housekeeper have produced a copy of a letter from the Social Security Admin. back in '03 telling Whitman that the social security number she had submitted payroll taxes for did not match the name. (Did you get that: Whitman was witholding taxes from this woman's pay, not paying her under the table!) Of course they're claiming Whitman knew all these years. Whitman says she never about anything of the sort. Having seen Whitman's denial, and considering the above mentioned withholding of taxes, and her offer to take a lie detector test; I have to believe Whitman.
It's another political hatchet job. This one just might backfire on Allred and the Dems. Latino voters may take note of the wages Whitman was paying and figure she must be a pretty decent human being, worth their vote.
Stand up for Right,
Dumb Farmer
