During a closed-door fundraiser in Florida, Ann Romney described Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen's recent criticism of her choosing to be a stay-at-home mother as an "early birthday present," according to a report by NBC News.

While speaking at the fundraiser for her husband Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, Ann Romney told the audience that Rosen's slam was a boon to her and her husband's campaign.

"It was my early birthday present for someone to be critical of me as a mother, and that was really a defining moment, and I loved it," Romney said.

Romney also said that the media's nonstop coverage of Rosen's criticism, along with the ensuing "war on moms," was a "gift" in the early stages of her husband's general election push.

Liberals ...War on Women, Now War on dogs..They never stop do they?
Ann did more than just raise kids..She can budget a home, and much more. .Libs are so jealous and always find fault cause they wish they could stay home. Bottom line ..Women's choice and we should respect their decision.
Ann is right, the left want to slam them to take away from the real issues facing this country. Jobs, bad economy, gas prices etc. Obama has nothing to run on...Zero.....Obama start packing your bags, like the secret Agents...Great men , they really work hard protecting the president..

So one of Obama's dumocrats slipped up! Rosen slammed Ann Romney. Ann didn't do the slamming, so you can't blame it on her or Mitt. The public doesn't like it, so Obama runs to take advantage of the public outcry, to try & salvage votes for himself, where votes for him are not due-they need to go to Romney, where the Presidency needs salvaging by someone other than Obama.

Bob, are you out of touch with the working class Americans?

This fauxtrage won't change any votes. The discussion of stay-at-home moms WORKING is so OLD, makes sense that the Grand OLD Party would be bringing it up decades later as some new argument for "family values." Snore. The best comment I've heard is that this latest GOP Fake Outrage was never intended to attract women voters but rather to further INCITE the MALE CHAUVENISTS inside the party. They apparently hate single moms, especially welfare moms. You know, not what God wants. http://images.sodahead.com/pr...

It was a wonderful gift that Rosen presented to our next First Lady. Yep it brought to the front that particular liberals have no respect for the homemaker and stay at home mom. I am a homemaker and took great offense to Rosen's words. What a fool. Thanks for the nice gift Rosen.

Ann Romney put her foot in her mouth when she said the Rosen comment was an"Early Birthday Present." She later stated all women should have the right to choose what is best for them.
Hooray, all women should have the right to choose all things regarding their lives, especially women's health choices.
