So because she ended up with a guy who went on to amass great wealth she should just be allowed to
live her life in a glass jar and not be "allowed" to talk or to share her views on anything.
Geez the more time I spend here the more depressed I get about how there is so much hatred coming from the Democrat party.
Ann Romney has every right to talk or share her views. But don't try to portray those views as anything but what they are...a view from the top. The view from a life that knows nothing about struggle or worry how the next bill will be paid. It is an insulated view.
Here is a great op-ed...
Dear Ann Romney: I Felt Forgotten
Ann Romney, if you recognize that women are the ones that have to do a little bit more, and work a little harder throughout the day to earn that respect at work. and to then come home and help with a book report, then I challenge you to do something about it.
If you recognize the unfair duality of the worker-care taker role, if you recognize the injustices in the workforce, if you recognize all the inconsistencies in womens lives then I challenge you to . DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
If you believe in your speech that women really are, the best of America .the hope of America and that there would not be an America without (us .and that you would like to) Salute and sing (our) praises .than DONT FORGET ABOUT US.
You took the time to single us out, to describe our story. You sang our praises for all the sacrifices we make, and how hard life is to be a woman in America and then, you just moved on. You kept us there in that depressing, struggling state. You moved onto your husbands accolades and this life you two built up together into the limelight and didnt even mention us again.
Is your story supposed to save us, the downtrodden American woman? Was your message to infer that we too should find nice husbands to have five babies with? Because even though I listened to all 22 minutes of your speech, I didnt hear you refer back to us and our struggle. I didnt even hear you refer back to women outside of your own identity as a wife or mother.
I felt forgotten. Just like the American political system has a tendency of doing to us women, as a subgroup. Unless, of course, our wombs or vaginas or identities as mothers and wives are needed to tote the political limelight. Then, like in your speech tonight, you remember us.
man that was some ugly shit..typical of a hateful ugly liberal though
