Jon Stewart returned this weekend to a perfect Daily Show style scandal: the Secret Service hired prostitutes and some were kicked out of Colombia! The puns were ready, the jokes low hanging fruit, and yet he had to let it go to focus on what the media was paying attention to: “last week, some lady said a stupid thing.” The “full on media shit-tastrophe” after Democratic commentator Hilary Rosen said Ann Romney had not “worked a day in her life” yielded much to make fun of for Stewart, particularly at Fox News, where Sarah Palin even brought out a “hoohah” pin during the firestorm. ... <SNIP> ... He left off on the note that, somehow, “Mitt Romney can now campaign on motherhood being hard, probably the only thing he hasn’t flip-flopped on.” Except, of course, that there is always a tape with Mitt Romney.

1. I am stumped...

stunned, addlepated, befuddled, confused. So, Rmoney would rather pay more for mothers of two year olds to go work in a dead end job, than he would for them to stay at home with them. Got it choice is good if you are rich. It is bad if you are not.

3. Yep. That's what Romeny said January 2012

January 4, 2012
Mitt Romeny:

... while I was governor, 85% of the people on a form of welfare assistance in my state, had no work requirement. And I wanted to increase the work requirement. I said, for instance, that even if you have a child two years of age, you need to go to work. And people said, well that’s heartless. And I said no, no, I’m willing to spend more giving day care to allow those parents to go back to work. It will cost the state more, providing that day care. But I want the individuals to have the dignity of work. ...

4. hilary rosen is shill for who ever pays her the most money

she has 0 credibility when it comes to any opinion because one never knows who is paying her to utter the crap she says.

a quick google search about what she`s done and is doing pretty much sums rosen`s creditability.
