Ann Romney

Ann Romney has MS, as we know. (We know all the MS celebs. Terri Garr, Montel Williams, Annette Funicello, we know them all.)

That’s why I glanced at a news article about how Ann says Mitt is so faithful and an all-around great guy. Here’s what I saw:

“She also discussed how he stood by her when she suffered from a debilitating multiple sclerosis diagnosis that she has now recovered from. “

Oh, damn, that is Spin. That is some highly paid professional spin. I can hear the conversation with the reporter.

Reporter: “So, Mrs. Romney, how has Mitt stood by you?”

AR: “Well, once a very long time ago I suffered from a debilitating multiple sclerosis diagnosis that I have now recovered from.”

Reporter: “Oh! You have MS?”

AR: “Well, I have now recovered from my debilitating multiple sclerosis diagnosis.”

Reporter: “Oh, so you don’t have MS anymore.”

AR: “I have recovered.”

Reporter: “From MS?”

AR: “From a debilitating multiple sclerosis diagnosis.”

Reporter: “So what was debilitating? So, you woke up one day and you couldn’t see, or walk?”

AR: “I suffered from a debilitating multiple sclerosis diagnosis.”

Reporter: “Oh! So you were fine, but then you got diagnosed, and that was upsetting, but you’ve recovered now.”

AR: “That sounds good to me.”

Hmph. I want details. Oh, and I want details about Mitt’s tax returns. Supposedly he refuses to release them.

This can mean either he does tithe 10% of his income to the Mormon church, and he’s worried people will think he’s a fanatic for giving millions of dollars to his church every ear, or, he doesn’t tithe and he’s worried the Mormons will excommunicate him.

Deets, Mitt. TMI. That’s what we want.
