The Romney campaign released these excerpts of Ann Romney's speech, which she'll deliver tonight at the Republican convention in Tampa: “Tonight I want to talk to you from my heart about our hearts.
“I want to talk not about what divides us, but what holds us together as an American family. I want to talk to you tonight about that one great thing that unites us, that one thing that brings us our greatest joy when times are good, and the deepest solace in our dark hours.
“Tonight I want to talk to you about love. …
“Mitt's dad never graduated from college. Instead, he became a carpenter.
“He worked hard, and he became the head of a car company, and then the governor of Michigan.
“When Mitt and I met and fell in love, we were determined not to let anything stand in the way of our life together. …
“I read somewhere that Mitt and I have a ‘storybook marriage.’ Well, in the storybooks I read, there were never long, long, rainy winter afternoons in a house with five boys screaming at once. And those storybooks never seemed to have chapters called MS or Breast Cancer.

“When these people on this thread that are bashing Ann wake up on Nov. 7 and realize “hey I should have voted - what’s this Obama was reelected?” Oh well - Enjoy.”
Oh they are all big talk about buying more ammo and food.
Like what are their swap-meet pop guns and beef jerky going to to stop Obama? Most of these Ramboobs would wet their pants in a firefight with a tin can let alone this Civil War II they dream of.
It’s hard having to be supported by my parents after college. It makes me feel emasculated, and that all what I heard about “The American Dream” feel like a hollow lie.
So for all the people who talk about waiting it out until 2016, I can’t help but laugh at the idea.
I can’t just “rough it out” or stockpile supplies, because I have nothing to make it on my own.
I wish I had the luxury to sit this one out, but looks like I’m going to have to suck it up and vote for the lesser of two evils again.
Wow. Your arrogance is pathetic.
We don’t know anything about Ann Romney that is good, all we know about her outside of her being normal in the sense of becoming a mother and getting sick, is the way that she supported abortion in word and deed, and that she kept illegal aliens working for her, and the business with the dog on the roof getting sick and traumatized on a cross country trip, and that she doesn’t consider themselves wealthy, and that she was once a Christian before joining Mormonism, and that her parents were not allowed to witness her wedding, which was held in pomp, and secrecy.
Exactly!
What is that?
We know even less good about you, so that makes Ann Romney better than you.
Now is the time to take care of your military service.
Unfortunately, I have a medical condition (food allergy anaphylaxis) that made me 4-F status, and ineligible for ROTC, or any military service.
They never grant medical waivers for Asthma or Food Allergies.
Only if you are one of those rare freepers that is pro-abortion, and anti-Christian/pro-Mormonism, pro-Planned Parenthood, and mistreats animals.
Sorry about that, I have had friends in similar situations (a medical block to service), and it bothered them greatly, but there is nothing that one can do about it.
IT is sad that during this election we can’t pump up conservatives and GET THIS JOB DONE to get rid of Obama.
Its nice for some to sit on their sofa and pontificate about “true” conservatives while we are facing Armageddon with Obama...Meanwhile, Reagen and Mrs. Reagen would have never made these whiners happy. Only dead conservatives satisfy them.
I got through the 70’s and I am not about to let this country go to a socialist nation.
Does anyone know what time Ann speaks tonight?
LOL!!!
I hope to god we get a Lady back in the White House and kick that beast out.
A guy speaks at 10p.m. (eastern) - sorry, can’t remember his name.... Mrs Romney after him.
The problem with Romney is that he is not at all conservative. I understand that you are a moderate and don’t care if Romney is liberal but some of us do. In 2016 when the GOP nominates Mayor Bloomburg for President you will be saying the same thing. You have to vote for him because such and such....No this crap has to stop. Every election it gets worse....Dole, McCain and now Romney...it gets worse every election!!!!! George W was big government. It is time for a 100 percent conservative. You guys are settlers. You will settle for whoever they send your way. In fact, they are glad for you types who don’t care about the person as long as their is an R after the name because you will vote no matter who is nominated. You are the easy voters with zero principles but will vote for the R exclusively.
The stuff many of these wannabe revolutionaries have in their gun cabinets that they think will stand up against the military if there was a real civil war.
It’s hard having to be supported by my parents after college.
Join the military. Do something with your life. Complaining is not a way to go. Hard workers are the winners. Get out of the basement and go to work doing something.
I’m 4-F status because of my food allergy resulted in hospitalization due to anaphylaxis. Otherwise, I would have been in ROTC and hopefully been deployed to Afghanistan by now.
As soon as the recruiting officer found out, he threw my forms in the trash. Medical Waivers aren’t granted for people like me.
I’ve done plenty of part-time work, I’ve contacted temp agencies, done manual labor jobs, all kinds of stuff.
My parents can’t afford a whining man-child who plays Xbox all day, nor would I ever do that to them.
