Amazing how anyone could even think about voting someone in as President who has openly admitted that he learns about women in the countries views from his wife.
Are Women too far below Romney for him to even try and get their views himself???????????
ROFLMAO! So where is he supposed to get this info from?? You're trying to make us all believe that he shouldn't be listening to his wife at all. If he WASN"T listening to his wife the left would be screaming about what a misoginist he is for not even listening to his wife on women's issues. When he DOES listen to his wife, she's not qualified... because she's not a woman? Or do only poor women count?
The left is just pissed that every chance they get to throw something at Mitt, lately, it comes back to bite them in the ass (dog pun intended)!
Maybe you guys should try arguing the actual issues at hand, instead of trying to paint people in a bad light personally. Of course, then you'd have to try and defend Obama's record.. and I can totally understand why you wouldn't want to go there!
You know you've lost the fight when all you can resort to is name calling. And this "rich against poor" crap is just another form of name calling. Only those who blindly follow are fooled by it.
No, I'm saying that she had a lot of help and never had to worry about money. She's not one of the folk like she's trying to paint herself to be. She's trying to say "See? I'm just like you!" Yeah, she's just like me with hundreds of millions in the bank
Very few American women have these kinds of issues? Our family consists of a professional husband, a stay at home mom, and 2 school age kids and we have these kids of issues, or have had them at one time (DH made half what he makes now when our first child was born). I would say most American families have these financial concerns! I don't know where you're living, but even the middle class people I know are struggling in one way or another.
So basically, you're saying that the economy is a big concern for you ... just like Ann Romney said! Yea, can't imagine why Mitt would be listening to her.
Can you please explain how you know all these intimate details of the Mittens' household(s)?
Seriously, have you been to their home(s)? Have you seen Mrs. Mittens slaving over a hot stove?
Have you seen her vacuuming the living room? Or doing laundry?
Hell, with all their multiple homes, I'll bet she's not even sure in which closet of each mansion the vacuum cleaners are even kept.
So funny.
Actually those of us who volunteer for the campaign have gotten to know a lot of the family fairly well, but no I wasn't there. I have seen family photos and heard family and friends talk about it though and I doubt they are fabricating it. I am sure if they had maids and butlers, the liberal media would have found them and put them on tv round the clock talking about it.
Furthermore, I don't really care if they had ten butlers, twenty maids and round the clock nannies as long as I wasn't paying for it. What business is it of mine....or yours for that matter? It's not and it doesn't make one bit of difference.
People like you need to get a life and worry about things that are more important.
I doubt Ann had many servants when she had a child in a basement apartment while still in college with Mitt. I doubt many mothers have raise five children without any help either from family or hired help.
Why do Democrats make such a big fuss over Republican presidential candidates who are wealthy?
I don't recall such bluster and hand-wringing over the Kennedy fortune. Or, for that matter, John Kerry. Or the fact that John Kerry gave virtually nothing to charity while Romney gave something on the order of $4 million...in addition to his entire inheritance from his father. Biden gave less than 1.5% of his income to charity.
Oh. Wait. I just remembered. Romney is Republican.
Kerry and the Kennedys are Democrats.
Also, Romney worked for his money.
Kennedy inherited his.
And Kerry married his.
This whole issue of Ann Romney is like a able bodied fit person saying that they have all the problems of mobility as a disabled or wheel chair bound person.... of course they don't.
No it isn't. Ann Romney never said she had the same struggles a lot of women are facing in this country right now, she said she was talking to women on the campaign trail and they are expressing those issues to her and the things they want done about them.
So, it's like someone who wishes to help someone with a disability listening to what they are going through and having empathy for them. To have empathy and understand does not require having been there. It helps, but if were necessary, people would never get the help they need.
ROFLMAO! So where is he supposed to get this info from?? You're trying to make us all believe that he shouldn't be listening to his wife at all. If he WASN"T listening to his wife the left would be screaming about what a misoginist he is for not even listening to his wife on women's issues. When he DOES listen to his wife, she's not qualified... because she's not a woman? Or do only poor women count?
Big difference between listening to his wife and sending her out to gather info from women as he is either too dumb to do it himself or he feels that to go out and speak to women is far too demeaning for him. I speak to my wife but if i want to learn something from anyone, man or woman, i go ask myself. It was Romney himself who made the big thing about asking his wife what women thought anyway........... LOL
The left is just pissed that every chance they get to throw something at Mitt, lately, it comes back to bite them in the ass (dog pun intended)!
The left doesn't have to make Mitt look bad... he is quite capable of doing that himself....... "i love firing people" or "not sure about these cookies"...
He guessed that a plate of cookies set on the table was from "a local 7-Eleven bakery or whatever."
............OUCH!
Maybe you guys should try arguing the actual issues at hand, instead of trying to paint people in a bad light personally. Of course, then you'd have to try and defend Obama's record.. and I can totally understand why you wouldn't want to go there!
Obama's record defends itself..... Economy recovering... Even Romney agrees to that and i know you hate that fact!
You know you've lost the fight when all you can resort to is name calling. And this "rich against poor" crap is just another form of name calling. Only those who blindly follow are fooled by it.
Not sure where i was "name calling" but if you think i was..... oh well!
She was also ordered to give back the donations solicited to her "Legal Fund". She was also ordered to pay back per diems that she collected for living in her own home.
She is using SarahPac as her family slush fund. If you donated to it, you paid for that silly aborted family vacation/bus tour last summer. She has paid out tons of $$ to "consultants" and "clerical" but very little to political causes. A lot of the $$ in SarahPac has been spent asking for more donations.
And of course, anyone is free to be the next Kardashian. But that doesn't merit respect or admiration in my eyes.
So basically, you're saying that the economy is a big concern for you ... just like Ann Romney said! Yea, can't imagine why Mitt would be listening to her.
No, I'm saying she doesn't speak for me. Besides that, it doesn't take a genius to know that everyone is concerned about the economy. Mitt was being dismissive of women's other concerns about their rights being trampled on when he said that he talked to Ann and Ann talked to some women and they're concerned about the economy...now shut up about the transvaginal ultrasounds and that other stuff, you silly women.
I'm tired of explaining it to people who are pretending not to understand
