NEW YORK – Ann Romney won’t be dancing her way to a mirror ball trophy anytime soon. Mitt Romney’s wife turned down a chance to be a contestant on the celebrity dance competition “Dancing With the Stars,” TMZ reported. After “seriously considering” the offer, the website reported Ann decided against appearing on the series. A rep for Romney confirmed to TMZ that the show was interested in the presidential candidate’s wife. "Ann Romney was approached, but she declined. She will not be appearing on ´Dancing with the Stars,´" the rep said. Last season, Ann Romney attended

Comments:
That was a very wise move Mrs. Romney. You just know the Mooch would more than love to embarrass us if she was able to appear on that show.

She didn´t want to wear a costume that would show off her "sacred underwear". DWTS is so past it´s due date the food is fossilized

Ann gets to dance with a star everyday.
Why would need this?

Ann Romney is one class act. She has suffered through illness but I can´t imagine what it was like for her to watch the dishonest media and show biz lefties portray her brilliant and successful spouse as a caricature villian while we have them to thank for reflecting a vicious, inexpericed slime ball. She can find better things to do while this country falls apart deservedly so.

Re-electing not reflecting stupid auto correct

Great lady.
I like her the best of just about all political wives.

Too smart to fall for this one.
Sharp like her hubby.

Our nation needs Mitt.
We just don´t have enough good people left to deserve him anymore.
We got what our slugs deserve.
An evil predator in the White House.
The snake in the hen house, stealing the nest eggs.
"Snakes on Air Force One!"
Try that title, Hollywood.

Meanwhile...
our nation will miss what could have been, Ann... And thank you!

I don´t believe for a minute that she seriously considered it, but she is too classy to laugh in their faces.

Anne Romney has Multiple Sclerosis. The fact that she walks as well as she does with this disease is something of a miracle. This said, I wonder which idiot working for "Dancing with the Stars" would have asked her to appear, given her condition. Was this some kind of sick joke (on the part of an Obama supporter) or was the person just plain stupid?

And #3 your ´sacred underwear´ comment was just as tasteless. Proud?


Reply 10 - Posted by: Daylily, 1/14/2013 3:48:53 PM     (No. 9116215)

Mrs. Romney definitely took the high road on this - what could those people with DWTS been thinking of. When this program first appeared on TV I watched once in a while - don´t think anyone who knows me would call me a prude, but the last time I saw it thought some costumes were way too skimpy and some of the moves much too suggestive.

Why would any woman with class want to expose herself to the inbred Kardashian loving audience?


Reply 12 - Posted by: TXknitter, 1/14/2013 3:53:16 PM     (No. 9116218)

She never considered it, I am sure. She knows the invitation was only extended so she could be ridiculed. Hence, the very unkind "underwear" comments. For shame.

Had she accepted, I would have lost all of the tremendous respect I have for this fine lady.
She even declined gracefully, instead of laughing right in their faces.

Oh please.
"Reportedly"... "allegedly"... her "rep" said to the website.
Sheesh, people.

Good, she does not need the money or the headache. But if Palin supporters kept Bristol on beyond her time, they could have done the same with Anne Romney.

Smart.

Many thoughtful comments on this thread.

This country needs leaders like Gov. Romney and his wife Ann like never before. We sadly don´t deserve them, as we´ve become Obamaphone Lady Nation.

Stay classy, #3.

Re #9, in times past I had a friend who was a marvelous ballroom dancer. He had MS. Because he loved dancing, and it was good for him, the only times he had to give it up were when he was going through a periodic weak spell. Low energy. Those who suffer from MS are not alike when it comes to their physical ability and activity.

Ann would only dance with Mitt.

Ann Romney is a very classy lady who should be about to move into the White House. Our electorate watches shows like Dancing With the Stars instead of paying attention to what is happening in our capitol and around the world.

I hope she urges her husband to become a spokesman for Truth and to speak up about our still incompetent and naive President who won reelection with lies, distortions, canards and mendacity. America needs someone to be the adult in the room to give our citizens the truth regularly. He needs to have his own show to let Americans know what needs to be done. We do not need Ann Romney acting like a Kardashian trying to be famous for being famous.

The picture of Ann with the article is so beautiful. It makes me even more depressed that she will not be our First Lady. As others here have said, she is a class lady. Mitt would have turned our country around, and with Ann at his side, grace and class would have returned to the WH.

In my bones, I don´t feel that God has finished with Mitt and Ann helping Him to restore our nation. I´m placing my faith in God - he knows better than I do what His plans for us are. God bless you, Ann and Mitt.

Why not invite Chelsea Clinton? It would be her kick off for the Senate seat she´ll be granted.

Good. Stuff like that is beneath her dignity.

I really like what you said, #23. I don´t understand what happened in this election. The hurricane, which God could have prevented, was arguably the reason for the loss. Perhaps God was protecting the Romneys?

The revelation that the government’s talking points in the wake of the Benghazi attacks were edited to reflect the concerns of a variety of federal agencies has sparked a firestorm of controversy in recent weeks. Some early reports on that email exchange created the erroneous impression that the White House was more deferential to the concerns of State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland, who sought to remove from those talking points a variety of references suggesting the Benghazi attack was the result of a coordinated act of terror. The actual interagency email exchange, released by the Obama administration on Wednesday,

DENVER — Colorado sheriffs upset with gun restrictions adopted in the aftermath of last year’s mass shootings filed a federal lawsuit Friday, challenging the regulations as unconstitutional. The lawsuit involves sheriffs from 54 of Colorado’s 64 counties, most representing rural, gun-friendly areas of the state. The sheriffs say the new state laws violate Second Amendment protections that guarantee the right to keep and bear arms. Opponents are criticizing the lawsuit as political maneuvering. The filing targets Colorado laws that limit the size of ammunition magazines and expand background checks. The regulations

WASHINGTON – Jay Devereaux hadn’t paid much attention to the daily drumbeat of partisan politics in D.C. He wasn’t a Washington nerd, and didn’t know who said what during congressional hearings -- nor did he care. But when news broke that the government was using taxpayer money to bail out Wall Street banks, he started paying attention and didn’t like what he was hearing. So the Florida father and information technology specialist decided to form a group, Unite in Action, to educate people in his area about the issues, he said.

First Lady Michelle Obama has expanded her anti-obesity campaign to museums, enlisting them to offer “healthy food options,” and change their menus. Mrs. Obama’s “Let’s Move!” initiative is now calling for museums, zoos, gardens, science and technology centers to “join the call to action,” to decrease obesity among children. The first lady is recruiting these institutions to join the “Let’s Move! Museums and Gardens” project because of their power to “influence real and sustained behavior change” on the eating habits of kids. “With their impressive reach and great potential for impact, museums and gardens can launch community

During a House Ways and Means Committee hearing today, Rep. Aaron Schock, R-Ill., grilled outgoing IRS commissioner Steven Miller about the IRS targeting a pro-life group in Iowa. "Their question, specifically asked from the IRS to the Coalition for Life of Iowa: ‘Please detail the content of the members of your organization’s prayers,’" Schock declared. “Would that be an inappropriate question to a 501 c3 applicant?” asked Schock. “The content of one’s prayers?” “It pains me to say I can’t speak to that one either,” Miller replied. After Schock pressed him further, Miller explained that although

WASHINGTON — Congressional Republicans, not resting with the Internal Revenue Service scandal, are moving to broaden the matter to an array of tax malfeasances and “intimidation tactics” they hope will ensnare the White House. Republican charges range from the clearly questionable to the seemingly specious, and they grow by the day. On Friday, lawmakers sought to tie the I.R.S. matter to the implementation of President Obama’s health care law, which will rely heavily on the agency. Whether they succeed holds significant ramifications for Mr. Obama,

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says it wants as many as 20 percent of its workers to "telework," use an "alternative work schedule," or do both, in order to "reduce green house gas emissions," decrease "employee stress," and give these government workers more time for "planning and preparing healthy meals." So says one of the HHS "performance measures" detailed in an appendix to the department´s latest strategic plan. HHS´s performance measure "4.D.05" says: "Increase the percent employees on telework or on Alternative Work Schedule." Telework means working from home via phone and computer.

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years. He said it isn´t difficult to figure out who´s doing what at the agency.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.

The Internal Revenue Service´s watchdog told top Treasury officials around June 2012 he was investigating allegations the tax agency had targeted conservative groups, for the first time indicating that Obama administration officials were aware of the explosive matter in the midst of the president´s re-election campaign. The disclosure to the Treasury general counsel and the deputy secretary was a cursory one, according to J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. He said he didn´t reveal conclusions of the probe, which was in its early stages, and his disclosure came as part
