Democrats' War On Women: "Ann Romney Never Worked A Day In Her Life"

It's going to be an ugly campaign season.Trashing a candidate's spouse is now apparently fair game as Democrat operative and part time media talking head Hilary Rosen attacked Ann Romney on CNN today, saying 'Ann Romney never worked a day in her life'.

Rosen, describes herself as a 'separated Lesbian single mom', but she obviously doesn't know that being a stay at home mother is no life of ease no matter what your circumstances, particularly with the number of kids the Romneys have. A lot of couples from all kinds of backgrounds and circumstances make the choice to have one parent stay at home because they feel it's better for their kids than daycare, and these days, it's not always mom.

Even further, her comments reveal the Left's default contempt for women who make that choice.

And lest you believe the spin this was just some talking head going off on her own, the White House log reveals that Rosen has been to the White House 35 times, including five meetings with President Obama.

By way of comparison General David Petraeus, currently head of our CIA has been to the White House 9 times. And Former CIA director and current Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, 12 times.

This attack was planned by the campaign, and only when it didn't poll well did Rosen get tossed under the bus by David Axelrod and campaign head Jim Messina.

More proof? Look at how President Obama set this up in advance a week ago:



“And then there’s the woman who once me advised me at the law firm in Chicago where we met. Once, uh, she gave me very good advice. That’s why I decided to marry her. And once Michelle and I had our girls, she gave it her all to balance raising a family and pursuing a career. And something that, could be very difficult on her, because I was gone a lot. Once I was in the state legislature, I was teaching, I was practicing law, I’d be traveling. And we didn’t have the luxury for her not to work.

Yes, they simply couldn't get by on $160,000 per year.

I recall, oh,back in 2006, President Obama making a big deal about leaving his wife alone after certain comments she made that were a tad controversial concerning her pride in being an American. I ordinarily would let this lie, but since the president brought it up, let's examine the nature of Michelle Obama's 'work'. Her license to practice law in Illinois was revoked for reasons that have never been revealed, but she was the spouse of a prominent, up and coming Democrat politician and the daughter of a well connected ward leader in Chicago so...certain arrangements were made.

She obtained a position that apparently was created especially for her as 'vice president of community relations' at the University Of Chicago Hospital for a nifty salary of $121,910 right after Barack Obama entered the Illinois state legislature.

It gets better.

When Barack Obama became a U.S. senator in 2005, her 'salary' leapfrogged to $316,962 for the same job...and one of Senator Obama's first acts in office was to see to it that the hospital received over a million dollars of your tax dollars as an earmark.

After going on an extended leave of absence from her 'job' for months on full taxpayer- paid salary to be an important part of her husband's successful 2008 presidential campaign, Mrs. Obama moved up to the White House. But her position back in Chicago was deemed so vital and important for the day to day functioning of the hospital that they didn't even bother hiring anyone as 'vice president of community relations' to replace her. Yes, that vital job of hers, worth a salary of over $300K was quietly eliminated. Just like it all never happened.

Yes, this is the president of the United States, comparing his wife's Chicago-style quid pro quo no show job to Ann Romney's staying home to raise her kids. Not only is it embarrassing. It's embarrassing he's not embarrassed.

Hilary Rosen, apparently on orders from on high finally 'apologized' on the order of, 'gee, I'm sorry you got offended.'

This is only going to be the beginning. Expect Mrs. Romney and every one of Governor Romney's children to be Palinized by these vicious, indecent people and their media lackeys. It's simply not in their nature to be anything else.
