WHOOPI GOLDEBERG: So, on a completely different note, after Mitt Romney said his wife Ann tells him about economic issues women face today, Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen is under fire for responding with this, and I quote. His wife has actually never worked a day in her life. She’s never really dealt with the kind of economic issues that a majority of women in this country are facing.

JOY BEHAR: Yeah, it’s true.  I mean, you know, you can say it was sort of a mishandled sort of quote. But whenever the wife of a politician, very few of them actually work for a living. And she’s talking about economic issues — and she’s not the one who’s putting bread on the table as millions of women are doing.

ELIZABETH HASSELBECK: Hang on hang on.  Women work in partnership with their partners. And I think it’s terrible that a DNC insider, a liberal insider, hang on, gets out there
 
GOLDBERG: Just call her a strategist.  

HASSELBECK: And marginalizes and discriminates against any woman whether she’s home or working or has kids.

BEHAR: She’s not marginalizing.  She’s talking about a specific thing. She’s talking about earning money

HASSELBECK: She’s talking about any woman who is home who may be home with their kids.

GOLDBERG: I’m sorry, I just feel like — and I’ll tell you why I don’t like what she said, because women who stay home and raise their children are working.

SHERRI SHEPHERD: They work.

GOLDBERG: This is something that we have had to deal with for years, trying to explain to men about what raising children is like. So, for me, I just thought it was — she spoke before she thought.

SHEPHERD: And even if she thought —

BARBARA WALTERS: Also, you know, there was a time with the women’s movement, when if you didn’t have a job you know, if you stayed home and you said I’m a housewife or I raised my children, you had to get any kind of a job, we have gotten to the point I hope where there is a choice. What Mrs. Romney said was, I made a choice. To stay home and raise five boys. And believe me, it was hard work.  So I mean…

BEHAR: . But it wasn’t about economic– it wasn’t economic work, it wasn’t that she had to go out and fry doughnuts at Wendy’s.

HASSELBECK: How was her husband supposed to be gone if she wasn’t there? Let me tell you something…let me finish.  

BEHAR: No let me finish.  It’s nothing wrong with staying home with a child. I did it myself for three years when my child was born.

HASSELBECK: Who handled the bills?  Who saw the money coming in?  Who went to the grocery store and knew how much milk was costing when the husband was at work?  

BEHAR: We had no money so that’s not even an issue. In all seriousness, she’s talking about earning money, that’s all she’s talking about.

Hasselbeck: No, she’s not.

BEHAR: And she’s talking about women out there who are not rich like the Romney’s .  

GOLDBERG: This young woman made a misstep.  I don’t…I think if she had thought about what she meant to say, this would not have been the way she said it. I think the way she said it was really wrong.  And that’s why everybody is You know, I think —

SHEPHERD: And I think that even she would have been in trouble, cuz it’s almost like that subject of, you know, do you breast-feed or don’t you breast-feed? Whenever you say you don’t know what it’s like as a stay-at-home mom and what we’re going through you always will get in trouble. I’m not quite sure how she could have phrased it to stay out of —

BEHAR: The problem Sherri is when she said she never worked a day in her life, there was something snotty about that.  

GOLDBERG: That is the issue and it’s wrong.

BEHAR: But I understand what she meant.  

WALTERS: But Romney has from the very beginning in a sense said don’t hate me because I’m rich, you know how we all hate those women who say, don’t hate me because I’m beautiful? What he has said, and I don’t want to quote, what he has said, you know one of the good things is that I am able to make money and I can tell you how to make money. When we have had both Bush’s, the wives stayed home. Reagan, Nancy Reagan, stayed home. This is a woman who knows what the problems are with raising children. What the problems are with trying to keep a marriage that’s balanced. There are other things.

SHEPHERD: But does she know what the problems are if I don’t have health insurance for my kids?

WALTERS: She doesn’t have to.  

GOLDBERG: But that’s — but what she says is, you know, there are some problems I didn’t have, but there are other problems that I did have to face.

HASSELBECK: Is it fair she has MS?  Is it fair she had breast cancer?

BEHAR: That’s irrelevant to this point.  

GOLDBERG: Well, the issue is, I think, and you know,  this is just me, I think she could have phrased what she had to say in a completely different way.

HASSELBECK: She won’t do that Whoopi.  She’s unapologetic.  She’s gone on.  Cuz I give you credit for being so far right now.   

GOLDBERG: But I’m just telling you where I’m at. I just think she’s…I just…whatever.

WALTERS: Thank goodness, I hope we have gotten to the point in this country, it has taken many years where women can choose. If you can afford to stay home with your kids —

BEHAR: if you can afford it.

WALTERS: Otherwise, you have to pay for nannies.
