Fighting words!

The wife of Germany's Chancellor Schröder (yes, that's really her in the picture) attacked her husband's opponent Angela Merkel for remaining childfree.

The London Telegraph reports:
The life of Angela Merkel "is not such that she can represent the experiences of the majority of women," Doris Schröder-Köpf told Die Zeit. "They are busy trying to juggle a family and a career, or deciding whether to spend a few years at home after having a baby or wondering how best to bring up their children. This is not Angela Merkel's world," she said.

As a woman, I would much rather have a leader who was busy trying to juggle the problems of the country than constantly waffling between changing a diaper or negotiating a peace treaty.
And, while we're at it, if you have to have had the struggles she describes to adequately represent women, then wouldn't her husband also be unqualified? Perhaps Mrs. Schröder-Köpf should stick to playing with digital cameras.
