We cats have written ample posts in the past about how self-entitled the Romneys are. Now, as we all edge toward the Presidential race of 2016, it's good to know that people don't change.
Ann Romney — who, like her husband Mr. Forty-Seven Percent, loves to talk about her fellow Americans in terms like "you people" — has reportedly changed her mind about another race, and decided that Willard owes it to his country to run again.
Our broad Cheshire-cat grins — which were not unlike President Obama's when he was asked about Romney III — were quickly supplanted by an eye-roll and a shake of our furry heads once we came across this little nugget in The New York Times:
"When Dennis King, an old friend of Mr. Romney's, attended a California fund-raiser during the 2008 race, he asked Mrs. Romney why her husband was subjecting himself to the indignities of modern political campaigning.
"'That's what God wanted him to do,' Mr. King said she had responded."
So there you have it, folks: In one small anecdote, a vivid illustration of the Romneys' contempt — "subjecting himself," "indignities" — and the convenient cloaking of their self-entitlement in the will of God.
What more do you need to know? We cats HISS and dump our dirty litter boxes in the Romneys' magic-underwear drawer.
