As a footnote to the Hilary Rosen-Ann Romney affair, in which liberals are passionately arguing that women who stay at home, especially wealthy women, have zero intellectual capacity to understand the world in which we live--a modern take on the "why don't you just shut up and make me a sandwich" sexist philosophy--the President reminded Americans that Michelle "didn't have the luxury" of forgoing work to raise their kids. Since Obama brought it up, I thought now would be a great time to reexamine the First Lady's background and all the noble things she has accomplished working outside the home.
