Et tu, Sheena?

Perhaps you've been too long in the jungle, but even that old curmudgeon, Bob Novak, wrote an article delineating and praising Jeri Thompson's professional achievements in her chosen career of big league politics (before she met Fred, BTW).

She also achieved motherhood with two darling crumb crunchers, a commendable achievement in itself.

Pray tell me why would I be "kidding" when I comment on women of achievement in the Republican Party?

“Single, but still reeling from the painful breakup of a 10-year romance, Jeri stayed in touch with Fred. ‘I was never an older-man-dater kind of girl before,’ she says. Sparks flew only later when the couple had lunch in Washington, where Jeri had moved in 1998. Jeri says she was entranced by Fred’s passion for his subject that afternoon, a campaign finance investigation; he caught her attention with a single phrase. ‘He said, I want to “lift the curtain” so people understand,’ she recalls. Clifford May, who hired her as a media strategist for the Republican National Committee, says he took a chance on the D.C. newcomer because she was ‘bright and energetic’; she was also, by then, a close friend of a Republican senator.”

Actually, she was involved with Fred when she was hired by the RNC. There is actually nothing in terms of professional achievements in her life, before Fred.
