Sorry Charles -

I fail to see how you can appropriately comment on the way Ann Romney raised her children, seeing as you have absolutely no insight on the matter. I understand that some of this outrage is indeed just being trumpeted for political reasons - but for you to dismiss the woman’s efforts as a mother without any basis in fact seems wrong to me. It seems even more impressive that she did so while dealing with both cancer and MS.

Ann Romney’s efforts as a mother have not been dismissed at all. You fail to acknowledge that she does not live the life of a common woman, who may have had to shoulder those burdens while at the same time having to work and lacking the benefits of wealth such as hired help.

This is not being held against her, Rosen merely scoffed at the idea that she represents the perspective of women’s issues as a common woman.
