Is it just me or....

[gopiscrap]

did you want to puke when Ann Romney was talking about their early married days when they were supposedly poor? All I could think was you fucking pampered piece of shit! Both these people had all the resources and advantages than anyone could think of. Not at any time in their lives did they ever fear being on the street or not having something to cook for dinner. Her whole speech sounded plastic to me...but maybe I am just biased! How about some concern for those less fortunate than yourself? How about doing something to uplift the voiceless and those who have no voice of advocacy...all I heard was just a bunch of arrogant, self serving bullshit!!!

1. Well I buy her struggling with a new kid

babies are a lot of work...

Being away from her family, sure.

Struggling economically... not so much.

Ann should try to raise a kid while hubby is deployed while on food stamps.

5. In a rough neighborhood, riding on the bus, with a pig boss, no health insurance or safe daycare.

Oh, she is miles away from the lives of many American women. The ones that Mitt says need to go to work. You know, 'the poor.'

9. Well I gave the example of the women

I shared a lot of my early marriage years... you know the Navy wife, of an E-3, who was on food stamps and I took her part on the they need soap at the boat because Halliburton has no clue how to do supply in theater, or toilet paper... or batteries. No, I am not kidding. She was in tears. It came out of the special chief's fund... aka what should have gone into savings that month.

2. Trying To Conjure Up An Image Like The Obama's When They Were In Their Early Married Days.....

it's just more lies. They keep piling them on.

3. yeah, I was crying my eyes out over her medical issues

Talk about tough.

Ann, what's really tough is when you face these problems with no insurance.

Now there's a real testament to character--when you can survive republican policies and come out alive with no insurance.

4. they lived off of investments... hope the MSM points that out.

She has NO clue, does she? Does she think the media and everyone doesn't remember that she said they lived off investments??? A rich young is NEVER poor...

6. I think the Romneys would have been better off

to talk about the advantages they have in life and being real with people instead of trying to pretend they ever had economic struggles. Wealth does not make one a Repub as we have had the Kennedys and the Roosevelts prove. But Mitt never seemed to use what he was given to help others.

7. But they ate off an ironing board, you guys!!!

So stop saying that!

8. Reminds me of Barbara Bush talking about their early days in Texas....

....in "That little shotgun house" they lived in while Poppy built his oil business! Total tripe!
