In a recycling of Teresa Heinz Kerry's 2004 snide remark about Laura Bush, saying that Mrs. Bush "didn't have a real job," Democrat strategist Hilary Rosen went on national cable television to insult Mrs. Romney who stayed at home and raised her five children. More details include:

Ann Romney joined Twitter on Wednesday night after Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen said on CNN that Romney "has never actually worked a day in her life."
Speaking on Anderson Cooper 360, Rosen said that it didn't make much sense for presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney to look to Ann for advice on women's issues because she was out of touch with the problems faced by most women in America.
"His wife has actually never worked a day in her life," she said. "She's never really dealt with the kinds of economic issues that a majority of women in this country are facing."
Within minutes of Rosen's comments, Ann Romney joined Twitter, and as of late Wednesday night had tweeted out only one post: "I made a choice to stay home and raise five boys. Believe me, it was hard work."
END OF QUOTE
I've written about the original Teresa Heinz Kerry (believe me, if her middle name - and family fortune - wasn't "Heinz," her last name wouldn't be "Kerry") remark repeatedly. Once, a liberal woman in a writing class called me a throwback to an earlier time. It now appears that this "throwback" was accurately describing the liberal war against conservative women and was prescient to be able to see that liberals were not about to give up this bilious line of attack against women who chose to "only" work in the home, as if that isn't a full-time job. My only regret is that my writing course ended too soon to include these current vile remarks from the Democrat strategist and feminazi Hilary Rosen in my assignment(s).
I recall years ago, during the Bush 43 Presidency, going on an organized one day bus tour with a group of middle class New Yorkers, most of whom were Democrats. It was a quiet day in the country where we stopped for lunch at some prearranged restaurant. All of the sudden, in the middle of the meal, a woman in her 50s or 60s yelled out loud how much she hated Laura Bush. The room went silent as this shocked the group of mainstream Democrat voters who had differences with Laura Bush’s husband but bore her no ill will.
Well, Democrat (and Republican) voters, get used to it. The deranged woman yelling at the restaurant is the New Normal for the Democrat party. Hopefully she and Hilary Rosen will have an opportunity to yell over their meals about First Lady Ann Romney for years to come.

Comment by Jack Kemp on April 12, 2012 at 10:13pm David, the Democrats are doing a great job of assassinating their OWN characters this week.
Comment by David G. Lund on April 12, 2012 at 9:45pm I believe that the dysfunctional aspects of our society such as divorce rate, crime, desire to be "taken care of" rather than to support oneself, belief that "entitlement without contribution" should be guaranteed and willingness to let "others" defend the nation are byproducts of having so many mothers of the last two generations out "earning a living", when their families and nation needed them at home! Perhaps Mz. Rosen might have had a chance to be "normal" herself if her mother had been more attentive to "the world's most important task", Motherhood! Does Rosen have nothing better to do than villify others whose choices differ from hers? What did she hope to gain from such savage and meaningless comments? If she wanted notoriety for herself, she has been successful! If she meant to convince others not to vote for Mr. Romney, she has failed! She probably has garnered a significant "sympathy vote" for the Republicans. Something very sinister must lie inside someone who can insult so callously! I wonder how many more of the President's admirers are lying in wait to assassinate the characters of other innocent bystanders?
Comment by Edie Carr Benchabbat on April 12, 2012 at 8:27pm As a career coach, I've interacted with many women and men over the years. About 15 years ago, I noticed a trend of educated women deciding to stay at home with their children - at least for part of the time. I believe this trend is the result of a downsizing backlash from the undying commitment their parents gave to their work. They missed the sporting events, dance events, and major milestones - all in the name of providing for their family. This was honorable but was it worth it to only to find out that their loyalty meant nothing when a company had to downsize. Buyouts, mergers, downsizing, right-sizing, acquisitions – are just part of the business environment. However, I believe that our current and new generation of mothers are not giving the same level of blind commitment as their parents did . . . When they are at work – they do their job, do it well and go home. Losing precious time with their children is not a price they are willing to pay. Work/Life balance has evolved as a critical issue – when you have a choice. Mothers are finding creative ways to stay at home, work part-time/contract basis and/or find flexible work arrangements. The majority of adults I have worked with would take a cut in pay and responsibilities to spend more time with their families. This was true for men and women – all ages and levels in an organization.
Comment by Jack Kemp on April 12, 2012 at 7:54pm You know the answer, JpS. Hint: What political party do welfare recipients vote for?

Comment by Jack Kemp on April 12, 2012 at 2:05pm Juanita, I have a small correction. You spelled Rosen's first name the way that Mrs. Clinton spells her's (with two "LLs"). This Rosen is the OTHER Hilary who today is becoming more of a headline grabber than Mrs. Clinton.
Barbara Bush made my day today when she was asked what she thought about the woman who made the remark about Ann Romney never working a day in her life....Barbara started a comment with "Hillary whats her name." Knowing how kind Barbara Bush is, I know she did not mean it in the way a mean old lady like me would. Note: I was a Mom "who never worked a day in her life."
Comment by Jack Kemp on April 12, 2012 at 2:01pm It gets better. A woman just called Rush and asked why to the liberals attack Mrs. Romney as a stay at home mom, but never criticizes WELFARE MOMS for not working? I think we all know the answer to that one: welfare moms are a Democrat protected victim group.
Comment by Daniel Handy on April 12, 2012 at 1:35pm Since Ms/Mr Hilary Rosen doesn't need birth control, that aspect of the democrats trumped up war on women didn't fit, so she tried the parental role card. Hard for that one to fit either since she is a lesbian estranged from her "wife" who is some teachers union executive. Such role models the democrats have. I wonder if there will fights over custody of the little girl toys?
