Just In Case You Needed Another Reason To Be Ecstatic Ann Romney's Not Your FLOTUS

21. We dodged a bullet alright

As if I didn't have enough against Queen Ann - she went and ruined the good name of dressage. It's a truly demanding art and the supreme exhibition of horse and rider as one. Now I can never watch it again (used to ride) w/o wanting to retch because of the recent association.

However, that does remind me to thank David Letterman for helping stop the GOP. His rants about the horse, the dog, and the GOP Chicken too scared to ever appear on his show must've done some real damage. At least it encouraged the faithful. During the campaign I bought my dog a big rubber chicken to carry around the yard and chew on while it squawked. I wrote "Chicken Mitt" on its belly and also hung one from the big wood sign I so lovingly crafted for the front yard. Thank God for fences - it drove my tea drinking neighbors madder than ever.

I don't know how I could've borne up if they'd won.
