Political sources revealed to The ENQUIRER that MICHELLE OBAMA brain-stormed the scheme to sic a pit bull strategist on the GOP contender’s wife ANN ROMNEY and it backfired! Talking head Hilary Rosen set off a firestorm when she mocked Mitt Romney for relying on his wife for advice on the economy, sniping that Ann – who raised five sons, has battled breast cancer and suffers from multiple sclerosis – “never worked a day in her life!” Rosen was forced to apologize, saying her words were “poorly chosen.” Even President Obama got into the act, saying there’s “no tougher job than being a mom.” A publicly sympathetic Michelle, 48, tapped out a message on Twitter, writing: “Every mother works hard, and every woman deserves to be respected.” But behind the scenes, her fingerprints were all over the scandal, said an inside source. “Michelle had her claws out to get Ann, but it quickly backfired and Barack was livid when he heard she had secretly directed the attack,” said the source. “What Michelle didn’t remember was that when Barack was running for president, he told ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ that it was unfair to attack Michelle, saying his wife was off limits. Here they were, however, doing the same thing to Romney’s wife four years later. “But even though Michelle was the instigator, the political grenade blew up in the president’s face.” The White House also caught heat when it was revealed Rosen had been a guest there 35 times – three times more often than Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta. “Michelle thought Rosen, an out-of-the-closet lesbian and close pal, could be their attack dog, but she miscalculated badly by going after stay-at-home moms,” said the source. “Behind the scenes, Michelle has vented that she worked hard as a lawyer in addition to being a mom. She also made jokes about Ann Romney ‘working at leading a rich lifestyle,’ including the fact that Ann competes in horse shows. “Michelle is determined to do whatever it takes to keep her husband in the White House. She’s learned politics is a dirty business. It’s only a matter of time before she comes up with another plan to go after Ann.” BUT ANN, 63 – a dedicated homemaker who’s been married to the former Massachusetts governor for 43 years – is getting the last laugh in the first face-off of what promises to be a months-long catfight. She’s stepped up to become a champion for the rights of stay-at-home moms. “My career choice was to be a mother,” Ann told a TV reporter. “And I think all of us need to know that we need to respect choices that women make.”

Really? How much work is involved in having a 6-figure no-show job? How many court cases has she won. Or even argued?

Not all lawyers, or even most, are litigators.
