Will Obama Apologize to Ann Romney Like He Did Sandra Fluke?

I don't think it's fair to fault her for coming from a wealthy background, she can't help where she was born or from whom. I don't think a person has to struggle in order to learn the values of motherhood or the values of women' s issues. She could have discussions with people who suffer from these issues, she could have taken women's studies classes who knows, but those comments made by Rosen are just dumb and there is no way to turn them into anything besides crap.

I think Mrs. Romney could make a wonderful first lady if her husband is elected and she may make women's issues a priority as her pet project.

 

Why would a president of the US call a female college student?

 

To ask her out on a date duh lol. (sorry too easy)

 

I am sure Bill Clinton would...also too easy

 

DUH! Because this "civilian" suffered bashing and insults from the worse talking mouth in the GOP. . .SOLELY because she offered to speak for women!

She never was a "public figure." She should have been off limit to anyone, but obviously the stupidity and corruption of Limppaw knows no limit!

Mrs. Romney is lovely (for the little I know of her) and doesn't deserve being insulted. . .but she wasn't! A statement was made that can be argued by anyone. . . and I would agree that it was uncalled for and insensitive. But. . .it certainly was NOT an insult, and it most certainly expressed the truth about the difference between the life of "multi-millionaire" women and the life of the 99.5 other women who have to deal with both raising children AND providing food, clothing, and education for them!

 

I’ve already answered your question? So why stupidly ask it again? Maybe you really don’t have the guts to address my comments. But if it makes you feel comfortable go ahead and ask the same question again.

 

No one "fault" her for coming from a wealthy background. Someone just pointed out that HER experience with the "struggles" of motherhood mixed with the "struggles" of making a living are VERY different if you have to work for a living and still be 100% responsible for raising your children, or if you have a "house staff" 24/7 and your "job" consists of attending board meeting at your favorite charity!

It was just pointing out that, if Romney really believe that his wife has lived the "typical" mother/worker/bread winner life of the average woman in the US. . .he is TOTALLY out of touch with reality!

And, I agree that Mrs. Romney would probably make a pretty good First Lady. . .she might actually have more sensitivity and understanding about women issues than her husband. . .but certainly NOT from experience!

 

Yeah, just the other day a woman was telling Mrs. Romney that with the bank collapse until the TARP taxpayer bailout, this friend of hers had to lay off the personal masseuse her hsuband flew to her each week from Italy for a special massage!

It as the WORST two months of her life!!!!

So indeed, Mrs. Romney knows ALL about raising children on $20,000/yr!

 

But she spoke out and was trashed for being a stay at home mom. She offered to speak for women. for stay at home mothers. Fluke was a public figure once she stepped foot in the room sharing what she believed.

There is no difference in the rich being moms or the poor or middle class. A mother is a mother. No matter how much money you have, doesn't mean you are less of a mom or less of a citizen.

Mitt worked hard, its not like money just fell into their bank account. He worked many hours, made alot of tough choices and did things that probably kept Ann home by herself on many occasions raising their children. stop with the warfare already.

 

But it would be phony. I don't think Mrs. Romney has shown a lifelong pursuit of women's issues. Just the opposite, she's a total opportunist like her husband. If her husband wasn't running for office she could care less about women's issues. Once he loses she'll go back to the leisurely life of a wealthy man's wife

 

No, you didn't answer it.

 

What is the matter with you people?????????

This strategist doesn't work for Obama.

Obama is not responsible for everything pundits on CNN say.

Ann Romney went from college, to marrying the son of the American Motors CEO, and while stay at home Moms have a busy, and noble job, something tells me the wealthy stay at home moms might have more domestic help than middle class stay at home moms who don't have a couple of Caddilacs.

So the image of Ann Romney breaking a sweat, and having trouble making ends meet, isn't materializing for me.

She's a nice lady I'm sure, and she shouldn't be offended that someone would point out how she's never earned a paycheck as an adult, and never had any money worries.

How stupid, there's real difference between the choices every day mother's have to make compared to a wealthy women aided by maids and tutors and whatever else makes child rearing a lot easier for her than the majority of moms. But the fact that you and Mrs. Romney don't know the difference is exactly why Mitt will lose women voters and the election.

 

And the middle class too.

 

she doesn't? http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/04/white-house-distances-itself-from-hilary-rosen/

She only visted the white house 35 times!

 

Here we have it. moms aren't really moms, if they have alot of money. Liberalism strikes again folks.

 

From your article...

This doesn't prove that Obama had any knowlege that this woman would speak the truth about Ann Romney, and get all the righties frothed up into yet another childish phoney outrage tantrum

 

What a pathetic OP.

 

I have no idea what the women are like where you live.

But out here in Lala land...I don't know anyone who apsires to be a stay at home parent.

Men or Women

Most couldn't afford that if they wanted, and the rest think it'll be boring.

My Mum was a stay at home Mom, back in the 60's-70's. She figured out how boring it was, and went back to work after we all were in school.

But I guess if you're spoiled and rich...all those tennis lessons, charity events, and servants might make being lazy at home tolerable

 

There is a HUGE difference between being a struggling mom raising 5 kids (or even 2!) and a multi-millionaire mom who NEVER had to wonder if she would have enough money to put a meal on the table for her kids. . .in spite of working two jobs and shopping for clothes at the good will!

There is a HUGE difference between wondering which of the two cadillacs one will take to go have lunch with friends or whether one's 10 year old car will have enough gas to make it to work, or if the transmission will last another two months!

There is a HUGE difference between considering spending Easter vacation with the kids in one of the three or four luxury homes one owns, or hoping that the section 8 HUD housing certificate that one has applied for and has been waiting for for the last 3 years will come through in time to avoid being kicked out of the women's shelter because your 60 day "stay" eligibility is about to expire.

There may be the same love for your children, the same concern about their future, the same concern about their health. . .BUT

Millions of women struggle with how they would get health care for their child if he/she should break a leg playing soccer, while the other just worry about the suffering breaking a leg would mean for her child. . .but KNOWS that, if this should happen, her child would get the best of care!

Millions of women dream of a better life for their kids, are proud of the effort and accomplishments their kid is making in the local public school, and are praying every day to be able to find a way to support their "brilliant" child through college, even junior college. . .while one woman knows that, if her kid fails, she can offer him/her the best tutoring, buy his/her way to the best private school and send a large endowment to an Ivy league university (maybe even build and new library) and assure that, no matter the level of intellect, or the level of interest in academic achievements they show, HER kids will graduate from the best university and enter into the "family business" with afortune to carry them through any "difficult time!"

If you do not see that. . .I can't help you. . .in fact, no one can!

 

I'm curious as to why anyone needs to apologize to Ann Romney for pointing out the fact that she is the pampered wife of a millionaire?

 

Yes. . .it was not an insult. It was just a reality check!

And people who can't see that are out of touch with reality.
