Inside the Beltway: Baby credentials
By Jennifer Harper
The Washington Times
Monday, August 20, 2012

Uh-oh: Mothers are vexed with the Democratic Party for its plan to “credential” infants at the Democratic National Convention next month in Charlotte, N.C., not to mention the lack of child care at the event. National Organization for Women chapters in Southern California — we’re talking Hollywood, Long Beach-South Bay, Pacific Shores and Palm Springs — have denounced what they deem discrimination, and a betrayal of sorts.

“When the Democratic Party refuses to provide child care at the convention and denies automatic access for young children to join their moms who serve as delegates on the convention floor, an entire group of women are disenfranchised,” says Susie Shannon, a convention delegate and mother. “Moms with young children 6 years of age and under who cannot be left at home, some of whom are breast-feeding, are relegated to second-class status within the Democratic convention.”

(Hey, moms, keep your freeloading kids away from this place. Maybe they'll grow up and actually amount to something.)

“When the Democratic Party refuses to provide child care

What? No free hand outs from the free hand out party? What gives? Are they declaring a war on women?

These mothers should count their blessings. The democrats are allowing their infants to live.

Not to worry, the DNC will have a booth handing out free contraceptives and abortion discount coupons.

Why not leave them at home with their daddies?

Oh wait. These are democrats. Never mind.

But these same mothers, who are too dumb to be able to pool & organize a child care suite on their own, will scream, clap, and cheer every time some Dim stands at the podium denouncing the “Republican War On Women”.

Babies aren’t people.

And who cares - they can’t vote anyway.

- Liberal thoughts

There’s an “insurmountable barrier for mothers,” says Lindsey Horvath, president of Hollywood NOW. “The DNC requires children and babies to have a credential to enter the convention, and then denies these credential requests from moms. The DNC credentialing process is being used as a tool to prevent mothers from participating at the convention and is nothing short of discriminatory.”

That can't be good.

Have their father take care of them. Hire a baby sitter. Have your next-door neighbor take care of them. Or - and here’s a revolutionary concept - put the care of your child as a higher priority than going to a political convention.

Ditto. I wonder what we can do to help exploit this anger.

I have to say I have never even considered free day care being available at a convention, because I would never consider taking a child to something like that! Good Lord liberals want the government to practically wipe their bottoms for them, don’t they?
