The dinosaur media wasn't going to fill you in on this part

Hillary Rosen, of "Ann-Romney-has-never-worked-a-day-in-her-life" sudden fame, is half of a well-connected and politically strident lesbian couple. The other half is a teacher's union activist.

What I want to weigh in on is Rosen's subsequent attempt at walking back her original outburst. I mean the business about the hypothetical diner waitress in small-town Nevada with two kids and a dependence on government-funded daycare.

She couches what she says about that in terms that assume anyone would think a cut in such funding would of course be bad.

She's not that stupid, is she? Nowhere near everybody thinks that. I certainly don't. What the hell is the federal government doing funding daycare anywhere, to any extent?

The things Freedom-Haters assume other people's assumptions to be.
