Ann Romney Orders Women to Wake Up and Vote for Mitt
Ladies, Ann Romney has some news for you! You thought you were looking for hope and change (also known as equal pay and rights over your body), but it turns out you should be looking for Mr. Fix It, ‘cuz nothing says independence like marrying well -er, voting for Mitt Romney who supports the Personhood Amendment.
Speaking from the Winebrenner Theological Seminary in Findlay, Ohio today, Ann assured us that we’ve “come a long way, baby” (nothing says progress like invoking the 1968 ad campaign for Virginia Slims) and that we work harder than the guys do (how cute!). Mrs. Romney said, “I love the women of America. We’ve come a long way baby, we really have.”
Also, Ann is still mad that someone suggested that she doesn’t work, when she works super duper hard. Yes, it’s true that she told the Boston Globe that she didn’t work, but that was years ago when Mitt was running for Senate. Back then, referring to being a mom as “not working” was cool apparently, and also a status thing.
In these modern times of Looking for Mr Fix It, “We work harder than most of you guys out there, I think you know that. Our work is never done. I think you kind of know that I work hard too, even though I’ve been told that I haven’t.”
But now, we womens are all about the progress! So, Mrs. Romney tells you ladies to “wake up!” already.
“Women, you need to wake up. Women have to ask themselves who’s going to have and be there for you. I can promise you, I know, that Mitt will be there for you. He will stand up for you, he will hear your voices.”
Yeah, you wanna know who’s gonna be there for you? It’s not Mr. Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay guy, oh no. It’s the guy you have to please in order to beg for the equal pay. If you’re a good girl, though, you get all the spoils! FREEDOM!
Whatever you do, ladies, do not pay attention to this.
In case you thought Mitt and Ann were running because Mitt likes titles (since he sorta quit on Massachusetts half way through when he didn’t get his way), Ann has news for you:
“We aren’t running to make our lives better. We’re running for you.”
Also, when Mitt sees a problem, he just fixes it for you, “He sees a problem, he goes out and fixes it.” And the problem he sees right now is you ladies having control over your body and demanding equal pay. Oh, and the birth control and the in vitro and the Planned Parenthoods.
Mr. Fix It is going to fix all of that mess right up, ladies. ‘Cuz nothing says we’ve come a long way baby like defunding Planned Parenthood as Mitt promised to do and making birth control illegal!
Though to be fair, Mitt was for it before he was against it and now he’s sorta for it again, though not really. But he did differentiate himself from his running mate by saying that he thinks women should be able to live if they get pregnant, so that’s a huge bonus for us ladies. But if he meant his support for the Personhood Amendment, then he secretly does not support us living. Tough to know, at this point, but hey, you people need to stop focusing on trivial things! Just trust him.
Wake up, already!

Gawd Ann is ugly! But funny thing, she ORDERS conservative-god-fearing-christian-women to vote, but I thought the Sky-Spook want women at home?

Is it me? Or is she keeping her hands in her pockets so that she won’t start shaking fingers at us. I’d hate to have been her kids’ nanny or the housekeeper….or the gardener. Or the tutor. Or the cook.

I kid you not. The RW women will love this. They are so incredibly small minded and continually kid themselves with this fake LOVE ALL YOU WOMEN ANN. Ann, please. We know you wouldn’t stop to talk to me if you saw me. I’m of latin descent. Only in the under $100thou a year bracket. Mother, gradmother, work at work and at home. My job never ends. I have no car garage in my house to save me the steps to the garage (in your house probably a mile away so I can understand your position and concern) I have to look at my checkbook every day to make sure I have all I need just to get by during every week. I would love to know when the last time was you had to look at your checkbook ti be sure you had enough for your family. I know. Just because all your sons already have 100 million in their accoutns no need for us to be so unfair. Please stop insulting our integrity with your wanna be sympatheties for my situation. Which really isn’t that bad. But I know. And I wish you would stop making empty promises to us poorer women making under $1 mill a year. Just stop. Please. The FIRST LADY SPOKE. It pretty much made you look like a second class lady for lying so much thru your teeth. Very happy marriage you and Mitt. Both liars. You’ll stay together forever!

TigerLily, you are so wrong in assuming that Ann wouldn’t speak to you. She would talk to you all the time, asking for her coffee with cream, get her shirt ironed, please toast a piece of bread. See? She is just like you and feels your pain.

TL, remember she said about her “blind trust” that she’s had it for YEEAAARRRRSSSS and she has NO IDEA what’s in it!
Do YOU have the luxury to have disposable cash at your beck and call 24/7 to not have to worry for YEEAAARRRSSS what is in your bloated, tax-dodging,foreign-deposited, multi-million “blind trust”?
YES, we are all alike, us women!

“I can promise you, I know, that Mitt will be there for you. He will stand up for you, he will hear your voices.”
Each one of these statements says, “WILL”. That tells me he hasn’t been standing up for women.
He didn’t say a word about Rush Limpbaughs remarks about Sandra Fluke, and he didn’t even know what the Lilly Ledbetter Act was.
He’s a clueless liar and so is his wife.

Stand up for us? He doesn’t even talk to us. Ann is the go-between between his highness and us. He gets all of his information about women’s concerns from her. He can’t even bring himself to talk to us but he’s going to stand up for us?
If you really believe that, Ann, I own an Arctic wildlife preserve on the Cayman Islands I’d be willing to sell you to boost your lord and master’s environmental creds. He’s got the women’s vote locked up. So move on to something else. Give me a call the next time you’re visiting your money and I’ll show you around.

She definitely looks like Jan Brewer but with multiple face lifts and botox. Any more work on her eyes and she will be looking like Kenny Rogers. One more total lift and she will be sporting a beard.

Ann’s nose doesn’t look right to me; it looks smaller than it was in pictures taken when she was younger. I’ve noticed Mitt doesn’t seem to be dying his hair recently like he was for a while, always leaving some grey in the sideburns. They are both so fake in their concern for others.

Ann assured us that we’ve “come a long way, baby” (nothing says progress like invoking the 1968 ad campaign for Virginia Slims)
. . . and nothing says “concern for women’s health” better than using the tagline for a brand of cigarettes.
Let’s see: first, Ann told Latino voters they would have to “just get over their biases” and vote for Romney . . .
Now, she’s telling — make that ordering — women to “wake up” and vote for Mitt.
Gotta admit, I find it hard to tell whether this woman is talking to the voting populace or giving orders to her household staff . . .

What an enormous sense of entitlement this bottle-blond twit and her plastic husband have! They really act like just because they believe “it’s our turn”, they should just be handed the keys. I find it hugely amusing how people like Ann, and the stooges that defend and support her, act like all the women’s rights-gutting legislation never happened; like all the GOP platform to gestapo our vaginas isn’t real. Their agenda is just to ignore it, act like it isn’t there, “if we don’t talk about it, it isn’t happening”. The GOP is desperate beyond description to NOT have women’s rights be talked about in this remaining two months before election. Constant refrains of “it’s about the economy, no one cares about this social issues stuff!” just bring more attention to the fact that indeed, it IS about this “social issues stuff”. I will have NO crusty nasty old white man controlling the vaginas of the women in MY family. The party of “small government” can get the hell out of my private life and live up to their creed. Any woman that votes republican obviously hasn’t the intellect to govern her own body and needs someone to tell her what to do. Submissive and dependent, just how the GOP likes ‘em.

Every republican I see male or female, they look ugly, all I see is the hate and negativity that seeps from their every pore, especially Ann and Mitt, they look like they wish the election was over, so they could tell us what they really think of us, they look bitter and like they have an inner rage for some reason, this couple is trouble and I hope America is smart enough not to elect them.

I agree with TigerLily…the over-indulged “R” women who stand tall and tan (spray-on Boca Rattan #7) will love the Virgina Slims line; they get it! The understand Ann’s big concept of “man grunt, man fix, man make money, grunt!…” It’s a great message for them! It’s something the “R” girls “get”…and something the rest of us left on the side of the road many, many years ago…around the time we started voting…

It amazes me that she thinks she has the right to Order people who to vote for. I don’t want her husband or any Republican telling me what health care I am allowed or controlling my reproductive rights. I have worked hard all my life and am not allowing some person with servants to tell me what to do. Look at her eyes. They have no feeling in them.

The more I see her speak the more I feel she is talking down to women as if they need Mittens to keep them straight. She may be a lovely lady no doubt but she isn’t a kind of a woman to represents me and many of my friends. Poor thing doesn’t realize she isn’t relating to the regular everyday people. I swear I don’t mean to be nasty but my goodness she is a stepford wife.

…”The more I see her speak the more I feel she is talking down to women as if they need Mittens to keep them straight…Poor thing doesn’t realize she isn’t relating to the regular everyday people…”
She IS talking down to women; she’s superior by right of marital status to one of the wealthiest of the wealthy. #1 makes it so…
And yes, she is saying to women, you need a man to fix things for you and to make sure you keep an aspirin between your knees, because you’re not smart enough or good enough. You need someone to show you how good you can have it all, so, girls, play you’re cards right and you’ll land Mr Right (a white male patriarchal of both religious and economic status).
Regular people know she’s just “acting” and has learned a movie script written for her, just like Palin before her…she’s just acting.

The fact that there were women who spoke at the GOP convention, including Ann Romney, does nothing to alter the fact that they are endorsing a platform that is rabidly anti-woman. Their presence did nothing to make the GOP’s steaming pile of crap smell any better. In contrast, the women who spoke at the Democratic convention were long on substantive issues, as well as humanity.
Of course, Mrs. Romney would try to humanize her husband, but nothing she can do would ever make him palatable as president.
