Queen Ann Romney is Not Off Limits.

Martin just showed a video of her 'weighing in' on policy. Talking about cuts to everybody who doesn't have a dancing horse.

I'm sorry you have an illness, your ladyship. But you want to cut help to Millions who have illnesses, that do not have a lifelong multi-millionaire in their beds.

We will deny you your 'deserved' throne.

She's one fixed election away from being queen.

Let's not elevate her just yet....

tax policy, health care, horse dressage, you name it.

That's her right, but then she's part of Willard's campaign, and should be viewed as a co-candidate, just as Michelle gets criticized.

We should be hearing something like this after the hurricane hits New Orleans: "The people being housed in the Astrodome were underprivileged anyway so this is working very well for them."

Baking cookies in the kitchen? Isn't that her place? It's what the GOP thought of Hillary. I can only imagine the outrage if Michelle had said something like this in 2008.

Yeah...um...ok....I'm sure you and the Mitt-Ster regularly stroll the Costco aisles stocking up on bargains.

If Mitt compares himself to Popeye with his "I am what I am and that's all that I am", what does that make Ann? And I guess Rafalca is Bluto, always vying for the affections of the fickle Olive.

By the great unwashed masses. It should be obvious to all you heathens than the only people above Ann's contempt are wearing Mormon magic underwear and paying a full tithe to "The Church."

The rest of you bastards are sub-human.

She sticks her beak into policy then it's fair game. They raked Hillary over the coals when Clinton was first running didn't see the media come to her defense then they piled on instead. They rake Michelle over the coals because she says it's healthier for kids to eat a carrot then candy. And spare me the sympathy because of her disease millions of "you people" suffer terrible diseases and they don't get to buy a million dollar horse they get a cat or dog for comfort of course we know how that turned out for a dog at the Romney residence(s).

are hers to rule. She has an offensive way of being which doesn't dovetail at all with her mercurial, finger in the air, checking the wind constantly, no change in policy is too big or too off the wall, husband.
