Discussion: Ann Romney: 'War On Women' Is 'Ridiculous' And 'Offensive'

Evidently Queen Ann, you learned absolutely nothing about how voters loath elitists like you, on your clueless husband’s last failed Presidential attempt, but the two words you uttered with seething anger, “YOU PEOPLE” showed far more about what an elitist snob you are than you will ever realize.

What is “ridiculous and offensive” to us average women, is you being born with a gold spoon in your mouth, being raised in wealth, and being a rich man’s pampered little wife, never having to struggle to feed her kids or pay her bills, telling the rest of us women that your damn party is not waging a CLEAR war on us women.

We do not need an elitist snob like you telling us women what is going on in this country, and obviously millions of us had the good sense to vote against the misogynist that is your husband in 2012, knowing full well what hell we would be living in if he had won. Now go sit back down on your throne, command your kingdom of servants, and shut the hell up. Every time you open your elitist mouth, you become more “ridiculous and offensive” to this woman.

Ann, have a seat. You weren’t crowned queen, your views have no relevance and you are, after all, married to Mr. “binders of women.” Stop the Stepford wife act.

Ann Romney’s Mormon faith makes her see her husband as Lord and Master, and woman to always be second class to man.

It takes such a toll on the body that sometimes she needs to take an afternoon nap, not long after her mid-morning nap.

I could have sworn the headline said:

Ann Romney Is “Ridiculous” and "Offensive"

and that made perfect sense.

She’d also like you to know that hunger and homelessness are no longer problems. After all, Ann has never seen any beggars in her gated community.

Interesting to read of Ann after watching Ken Burns’ The Roosevelts last week. The wealthy used to believe in noblesse oblige. Proof that todays wealthy, while upper income, are definitely not upper class.

An you know, Ann you are a good Mormon wife, and to a billionaire to boot, what do you know about real life? Remember “those people” the ones beneath your shoes, I bet you don’t even see them when you drive down the street.

In addition to refuting the potential of the “War on Women” campaign

Aaaaaargh!!!

No, no, no, fucking no.

Nobody fucking refuted anything. To refute means to prove the case against. All she did here was to reject the argument. There isn’t the smallest hint of any actual refutation there.

Sorry, one of my major grammatical bugbears.

I don’t remember Pat Nixon in 1960, Margaret Goldwater in 1964, Muriel Humphrey in 1968, Eleanor McGovern in 1972, Betty Ford in 1976, Rosalyn Carter in 1980, Joan Mondale in 1984, Kitty Dukakis in 1988, Barbara bush in 1992, Elizabeth Dole in 1996, Tipper Gore in 2000 or Teresa Kerry in 2004 - after their husbands’ losses - spending the next 4 years bitching on television.
