Fake Outrage of the Day: Hilary Rosen Criticizes Ann Romney, Right Wing Goes Nuts

Rosen did not put down stay-at-home moms. That’s the fake outrage. She criticized Mitt Romney for trying to use his wife to immunize himself against the charge that he’s terrible on women’s right — and he IS terrible on women’s rights.

Don’t buy into this bogus framing, that Rosen was saying mothers don’t work. She did not say that at all. She said Ann Romney didn’t work, and she was right. How many nannies, housekeepers, and au pairs has Ann Romney employed? Her experience raising kids is nothing like the average woman’s, and Mitt’s attempt to picture it like that is simply dishonest.
