“Katie Britt is just the latest in a long line of Republican women who aren’t stay-at-home mothers but play them on TV. Sarah Palin called herself “just an average hockey mom” when in fact she had been a career politician since her 20s. Phyllis Schlafly claimed her place was in the kitchen when she actually spent the entire 1970s traveling the country to defeat the ERA. I encourage all women who want to pursue their political ambitions to do so. But pretending that you spend every night around the kitchen table is an insult to the millions of women who do the hard (and unpaid) work of stay-at-home parenting, and it’s as phony an act as Reagan chopping wood at the ranch.”

And they spent more than a lifetime ridiculing Hillary Clinton for her cookies comment.
[i]
When Hillary was asked about Brown's comment, she responded: "I suppose I could have stayed home, baked cookies, and had teas." The remark outraged many voters, who perceived it as a knock against stay-at-home wives and moms. Not surprisingly, the full quote was not reported. After mentioning cookies, Hillary went on to say, "The work that I have done as a professional, a public advocate, has been aimed . . . to assure that women can make the choices whether it's full-time career, full-time motherhood, or some combination." Despite her efforts for accepting all women, the damage was done. [/i][/quote]
