Another Democrat goes green. With envy.

A dear young friend who reads (but does not usually comment on) this blog sent me an email yesterday.
She said some nice things, then used the term “bated breath” in wondering when I planned to address last week’s Ann-Romney-has-never-worked-a day-in-her-life controversy.
I rarely pass up the thrown-down gauntlet, so here you go.
Let me preface my remarks by pointing out something my daughter Audrey said, and I paraphrase: Before last week, who ever heard of Hilary Rosen?
Precisely.
I did know, however, who Ann Romney was. I still know who she is.
Although her husband was not my favorite pick for GOP nominee and POTUS 45 -- he’s not nearly conservative enough -- I believe Ann Romney is the next First Lady of the United States of America.
We could do lots worse. We are doing a great deal worse.
And it doesn’t bother me a bit that Mrs. Mitt Romney, mother of five, has never held a job in a big corporation, or even a small one.
Because even though in a way it’s not saying much -- her being a multi-millionaire and all that -- I can relate to Ann a lot better than I ever would to Hilary what’s-her-name.
I mean, Ann and I both drive Cadillacs. I’m pretty sure hers are nicer than mine, but still. We’ve got a bond.
But the day I have anything in common with a pudgy lib-loon lesbian who gussies up for cocktails at an ultra-radical White House once a month will be the same day I share a pack of peanut butter crackers with Johnny Depp.
On Pluto. While being serenaded by Chanel-clad ferrets crooning Unchained Melody in perfect Portuguese.
Ain’t gonna happen, y’all.
So if Ms. Rosen’s point was that the average American woman relates better to her -- because she “works” -- than to Ann Romney, who doesn’t work, that was a pretty spectacular fail for one whose sole claim to fame is tacky friends in high places.
Those same friends who pretend to champion women while actually holding them in the lowest contempt imaginable.
Because lets face it: millions of the women Hilary Rosen purports to represent with her lifestyle and employment choices wouldn’t know a job if it bit them on the nose.
I speak of the immoral, indecent, one-hundred-percent-on-welfare females with six kids by six different babydaddies and not a wedding ring in sight.
In other words, ahhh, uhm, ohhh, ahhh ... Obummer’s voter base.
The closest these gals come to “working” is the twenty dollars they get for leaving the couch long enough to lumber down to the polling place and axe how does you spell Democrat.
If a girl played her cards right, she could make a hundred bucks in a single day doing that! Added to her food stamps, it’s a real nice haul. Beats turning tricks.
Vote early and often, Dims. It’s the only way your strategy will “work.”
But the Hilary Rosens of this world count on the middle-class American woman never putting two and two together and coming up with four.
She thinks the hard-working, law-abiding, God-fearing, traditionally married, taxpaying mothers (and there are still more of our kind than there are of hers) of America are stupid. Or not paying attention.
Because wait! I thought the liberal message was that a woman’s body is her own and she alone has the right to choose what she’ll do with it.
Like, if she uses it to be faithful in a marriage to one man, or to hold a job for thirty-five years, or if she decides to stay home and rear children, or to pop out a passel of welfare babies, or get an abortion or a dozen abortions, it’s nobody’s business but hers.
Work this out, Hilary: What really puts a crease in your liberal cranium is not a woman who is unemployed, but a woman who lives her life morally and in subjection to a man. A man who provides for her while she bears and nurtures his children to productive adulthood according to traditional family values.
It curdles your cerebral cortex that more women like that will be voting in November for Ann Romney's husband, than women like you voting for your pathetic dweeb of a socialistic race-hustling savior.
TG and I were at our married daughter’s house this past weekend, to celebrate Allissa’s birthday.
Stephanie hasn’t been employed since 2007, when she quit her part-time teaching job to become a full-time pastor’s wife.
She has a seven-year-old with special needs, a four-year-old who’s a pistol, and a two-month-old with colic. As such I assure you she works. Seven days a week. For no pay. The hours are terrible.
But there are some wonderful benefits. My sweet friend who suggested I write this post -- who is herself the (married) mother of two and runs a successful home-based business -- knows what they are, and so does my daughter.
Hilary something or other? The one whose name you already forgot? She’s not only malicious, perverted, immoral, and mentally ill.
She’s just plain jealous.
That is all!

Well, wowza' on the post, but I could hardly read it for looking at all the preciousness on the way down. Little Andrew is just the cutest ever, exactly like his big sisters are also. Squeezably cute. Amen to that?..........G.
And a p.s. to that, I meant to say Happy Birthday to Alissa. Her cake looked so good, Birthday cake is my favorite thing, among many other things, so I'm in the kitchen now looking for something that can measure up to that. Ha.....G. again
Hooray for your post filled with wisdom & humor! Thank God for women who are stay at home moms! & happy birthday to your daughter too!
And where do I begin - with the cuteness in this post, or the wisdom in the words?
First - I have to say that your grandbabies are just the cutest things ever (along with Alaina) That last picture of little Andrew is adorable! Happy Birthday to Allisa too.
As usual, you hit the nail on the head with this post. These liberal woman don't seem to have a clue what they are missing in life. Do you notice that so many of them seem to have a lot of anger brewing and they explode so easily? I think it's because they really aren't happy!
I would say you are far better being similar to Ann Romney than Hilary Rosen. :)
Those grand babies are adorable. And while I don't pretend to know a lot about the politics of your wonderful country. I do agree that a woman with 5 children and a husband in public life is most definitely a WORKING WOMAN. And perhaps she drives a nicer Cadillac than you she, she still has SOME responsibilities which for a mom are never the same two days in a row. Why is it that women who don't know the joys of motherhood, always think we are sitting around eating bon bons, and that we are so rare. Well I do admit to eating a bon bon or two, but I had to go and buy it myself and usually I don't have the energy to do one more thing so a bon bon is a good thing. Pooh to Ms. Hilary Rosen.
Oh my stars...those pictures... I can hardly take it. He (all of them) are the cutest most delectable EVER!!
Spot on with the post!
You never disappoint! I came home this evening, saw your new post, and after I had comforted my sick two-year old, who has kept me up all hours of the past three nights, I finally had a chance to read and enjoy! He is now crying and calling "mama" again, so I guess this night will be no different. But that's OK since I "don't work" and my five-year old will understand why I want to sleep on the couch all day tomorrow. I'm sure he won't expect me to make his breakfast, play Legos, or help him craft a new home in a mason jar for the pet caterpillar he collected and "rescued" from the yard... all while caring for his sick partner in crime:)
Loved it! Blessings!
Game, set, match, goes to Ann Romney and her stalwart defender, Jennifer!
oh nooo....I'm Still upset over this! A guy on FaceBook said THIS:
Ann Romney can talk about how difficult it was to be a stay-at-home mom and raise five sons, but before I feel sorry for her, I want to know how many maids, nannies, chauffeurs and gardeners she had at her several estates. You know, money talks and bull**** walks. Poor Ann Romney. It's so tough to be rich in this country.
I was outraged and REPLIED:
No matter How rich OR poor you are, you Still have a right to voice ur opinion about the economy... and that's what got this firestorm started. Ann Romney, who stayed at home and tended to the kids (WHILE, fighting cancer and Muscular dystrophy), shouldn't be able to give her now-candidate husband ANY advice on our economy through the eyes of a stay-at-home mom? She deals with finances every day just like you and I do...No right to an opinion? Has nothing to do with how many maids she may or may not have had...I'm happy for Anyone who can make a great living and prosper...it's called Capitalism. I'd rather keep my freedom then wait for the government to send me a check or what medical treatments I can or can't have....
PS- The above was in response to Mr Bridges opinion...I use to be a stay at home Mom...hope that doesn't disqualify my opinion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm Still p***ed at his flippant attitude!
Anyhoo...now I need an Excedrin (glad I stocked up...Excedrin is STILL out of product!!)
hughugs
Fantastic job. You express my feelings perfectly. Great pictures too.
I could not be an at home mom, I had no choice but to work outside the home. My hubby was in school and I had to work. Having said that, I would pull my hair out if I HAD to be a stay at home mom. I consider it much harder than working outside the home.
(On another note, since you mentioned Johnny Depp.. . He has a new movie out I saw the previews a few days ago. Looks like it might be a good one.)
