In reply to the discussion: Ann Romney's chart [View all]Fire Walk With Me
(38,893 posts)47. "Ann Romney Says It’s Ridiculous That You Think They Don’t Have Empathy"
http://www.politicususa.com/ann-romney-ridiculous-empathy.html
While extolling her own suffering, Ann Romney complained about how You People have demonized the great compassion evinced in The Mitt Romney, and added, And for people to think that we dont have empathy just because were not suffering like theyre suffering is is ridiculous. Its its ridiculous to think that you cant have empathy for somebody thats struggling.
Mrs. Romney did concede that their suffering has not been financial, contrary to the story of tuna on the ironing board told at the RNC. But she is here to tell you that just because they havent suffered financially doesnt mean they havent suffered; she has MS. She wants you to believe in their compassion.

I've seen one photo of her and her toy horse; in it, I feel that the horse is frightened of her.

Oh - we wouldn't get along at all, in fact, we'd be showing fangs within 18" of each other. nt
