Ann Romney's 'Stay-at-home feminism'


Here's an excerpt from a smart piece by Tim Stanley on the Democrat-spawned controversy surrounding Ann Romney's decision to stay at home to raise her five children. From the Telegraph:
The war on women has flipped. Until yesterday, it was the Republicans attacking women by confiscating their contraceptives and forcing them to wear a veil in public (or whatever Obama said). Today it’s Democrats slandering stay-at-home moms as antediluvian fembots who let their sisters down by not pursuing a career in nuclear physics. Of course, both sides have descended into rhetorical absurdity. But it’s interesting to see an unlikely hero emerge from the latest dive down the rabbit hole. Ann Romney, it would seem, is pretty cool.

Looks like Ann will be a force to be reckoned with this election cycle.

  1. Raising five kids is not a joke. It is more work in one day than any person can do in the workplace in a whole lifetime. To call Mrs. Romney a hero would be an understatement. She is in a league of her own, where no women in the workplace can come close to.
