First, there was the headache over the dog. Now, the horse.
When it comes to animals, the Romneys cant seem to win.
In what many felt was a disastrous interview with NBCs Brian Williams on the eve of Fridays opening ceremony for the Olympics, Mitt Romney first insulted the British people by expressing concern about security preparations and the excitement level of the citizenry. (That led to widespread mocking in the British media, a poke by London Mayor Boris Johnson and a sideways swipe by Prime Minister David Cameron.)
He then strained the credulity of the folks back home when he declared that he didnt know a thing about the competition in which his wifes horse, Rafalca, will be participating, starting Thursday.

Technically I guess he's right, since he won't be there. But this remark only reinforces the impression Mitt will dissemble about anything and everything.

(8,084 posts)He actually showed some support for his Wife and her Horse, it is a great honor for her to have a horse in the Olympics. Instead he is such a spineless weasel he is actting like it doesn't even matter
Which, makes him even more of an out of touch Dick head. Think aboutit, if any of us had a Horse in the Olympics. I am sure we would be posting pictures all over our facebook pages. Telling our friends and family when the horse will be performing. making a sexy edited youtube video for eveyone to see and passing out t-shirts and bumperstickers for friends that say "My Friend has an Olympic horse!"
But instead in your feeble attempt to appear to be a man of the people you ignor your wife. Nice real Nice!
Dear Mitt the Twit.
Showing love and support for your wife, is an honorable thing that many many female voters would appreciate. dummy
You should be proud to say yes WE have a horse in the Olympics what and honor.
