Ann Romney on Fox News today: 'I don't even consider myself wealthy'

[240 is Back]

Apparently “Romneying” — defined as “accidentally bragging about your place high up in the economic stratosphere” — runs in the family.
 His wife, Ann Romney, inexplicably talked about her wealth this afternoon during an interview on Fox News. “We can be poor in spirit, and I don’t even consider myself wealthy, which is an interesting thing, it can be here today and gone tomorrow,” she said.

LMAO.

Seriously, I can see why repubs are worried.   Once the campaign is open on a national level, Romney will be talking to reporters 12 to 16 hours EVERY DAY.

Imagine the funny shit he will say as he gets more and more desperate.

Like I said - can't believe it has come to this. 

Two choices  - immediate destruction and collapse or gaffomatic 24/7

Yup.  communism or Socialism-lite - take your choice.


I have been listening to some of Breitbarts old clips.  He was a genius in how he dissected the media filters and narratives that are created and foisted on us. 

I really think he was offed the more I think about it when looking at the accumulating circumstances and he more than most others threatend the existing order.

LOL, she says they can be poor in spirit and you're worried about the context?  Sorry, this is a funny joke in any context coming from them.

what i dont understand is that mittens has been running for President now for the last 6 years - 6 YEARS - and he still is this tone deaf? 

I mean WTF - really?

At least he's not as bad as Santorum.  Now that man says some really stupid shit.

Santorum cant help himself - mittens and Co. should know better. 

[Butterbean]

It sounds like she does not consider her material wealth as something that can be counted on (and she's right) and she may not feel it is hers but her God's.....but yes, what she said can sound crazy and even insulting to a lot of people.

it may be a sympton of the bigger problem.   Romney simply doesn't understand the WORLD that 300 million americans live in.

he doesn't have to go to grocery stores, drive thrus.   He doesn't know what the car repair district looks like in most towns.  He doesn't know what people talk about when they're chilling on the street corner all day.  He doesn't know the FRUSTRATION that most people have.

He's never had to worry about money.  Can you IMAGINE that?  A guy who has always had a million bucks in his bank account his entire life. When he talks to poor people - he REALLY desn't konw what they're feeling.  You can't describe the uncertain feeling of "I'm broke and there aren't any options for me..."   Well, all of us probably can.  Mitt can't.


SO IMO, a brokered convention is going to be needed to save the GOP's chances.   Mitt will continue this - and if he's polling down 12 points to obama in september, he's going to throw wild pitches on the fly - and we'll get even worse gaffes.

[Soul Crusher]

Mittens makes me want to scream.  I can belt off dozens of better one liners than him off the cuff on things that would set that communist thug back on his heels. 

My answer yesterday to you about the fluke call and obama and what mittens should say ias what someone w bals would say to obama, but mittens and his wife are two spoiled pussies. 

[blacken700]

i think she probably doesn't think shes rich,people like her have always had it so they don't know any different,they live in a world most of us will never have.i don't think she was bragging,that's just all she knows

[Shockwave]

Lol, or it means the ROMNEY FAMILY is horribly out of touch with people.
For someone who gets so flipped out about stereotypes youre sure quick to use the words of 2 people to attack an entire group of people that comprise HALF THE FUCKING COUNTRY.

Remember that the next time you start say something about discrimination or white people stereotyping other ethnic groups. lol.
