Joe “I always say what I mean” Biden has admitted before that he and President Obama have a “fundamentally different vision,” and it seems they might not see eye-to-eye on the Lilly Ledbetter Act. At a campaign event in St. Augustine, Fla.,today, Biden told the crowd that the act is “a big deal for women, but it’s not a big deal in terms of equal pay.”
Biden’s remark comes on the same day that the president’s campaign Twitter feed was promoting the Lilly Ledbetter Act as a highlight of his administration’s accomplishments.
Lilly Ledbetter knows that equal pay for equal work isn't just a women’s issue—it’s a family issue: http://t.co/IB3tpO6M

Time to put Biden back in time out?
Biden, a bit off message, expl. Ledbetter, "It's not a big deal…it's a big deal for women, but it's not a big deal in terms of equal pay."
