"As a mother — who plans to transition to a new job later this year in order to spend more time with her 13-year-old son. . . " That makes it pretty clear that the "disclosure" of her Mao remarks is not the reason for her departure nor is Obama "throwing her under the bus". Mercy, I'm tired of that expression, especially when it's used erroneously. But most of you continue to claim some sort of victory with her exodus. Silly. It's good to read a few voices from intelligent progressives in these threads. Too bad they're ignored unless they can be (in your view) reprimanded.
