ryan's wife looks like that woman in the commercial who comes to the door of the new people who just moved into the neighborhood, and she and her husband insist on BUNDLING! "We ALL Bundle!!!"

She looks like "I'm SMILING, DAMMIT!!!!"

Her ladyship ann of dressage looks as though she just smelled something unpleasant. Maybe mrs. ryan just farted?

I'm certainly no saint when it comes to snarky comments about the candidates... but even when Ann Romney and Mrs. Ryan come off as spoilt elitists, who have no empathy for the other 99%, I can't get into captioning photos.

Looking at their pics, they look nice nice church ladies, and Ann looks like she has had some work done. That's about all I'm going to say.

But have at it, but stuff like this always comes back to bite us in the ass.

Not going there, as tempting as it may be. All I can say is that Mrs. Ryan has a look in her eyes that says, "What the hell did that jackass husband of mine get me into?" She looks like she's scared shitless. She doesn't really come off as a spoiled elitist to me.

I tried on the same one recently. It's from their Dana Buchman brand. I know, superficial, and does nothing to excuse their disgusting politics, but it's interesting to me. If it's the one I tried on recently, it cost about forty bucks. Does anyone have a picture that shows the whole dress?

where her dress came from? If it had a $5000 Nordstrom price tag someone else would be bitching. Clothes are clothes. Why the need to tear these women apart?

(same plastic surgeon?), same tasteful muted jewelry, same height even. Ann's clothes probably cost more but Janna will figure out how to ramp up her style factor since she'll figure out how to tap into the same RNC clothing biz as Sarah Palin.

Oh, and maybe the Choo's she was talking about actually came from Payless. They just told her they were expensive.

Janna might have married for love and wonders how she got here. Ann just thinks this should be over and she should be redecorating the WH already.
