In reply to the discussion: Top Dems distance themselves from Hilary Rosen. DNC: she doesn't work for us [View all]asjr
(10,479 posts)2. I heard Hilary's remark and can't understand
all the brouhaha. She simply made a statement. Anything she said against Ann Romney would have been refuted by the Republicans, but to have the Democrats pile on her was the wrong thing to do. Did they ever pile on Republicans when one called Obama stupid? How many refuted the ones who were birthers, death panelists, and lately one who is utterly dangerous to be around, said about 81 Democrats in D.C. were communists. There are some W.H. Democrats who are beginning to make me irritable. When our country has been reduced to second-grade political shenanigans what can we do. I am with Hilary Rosen!

I agree that they shouldn't pile on her, but your argument is apples and oranges...
