Insert your own punchline


Who knew Mormons were so freaky? Via Tbogg (emphasis deliciously added):

The New York Times on Ann Romney:
During her rehabilitation from her initial attack, she took up dressage, going from a novice so weak that she could barely sit in the saddle to a winner of top amateur medals. She sometimes enters professional-level contests, against the advice of her trainer, Jan Ebeling. “She wants to measure herself against the best,” he said.

Dressage is a sport of seven-figure horses and four-figure saddles. The monthly boarding costs are more than most people’s rent. Asked how many dressage horses she owns, Mrs. Romney laughed. “Mitt doesn’t even know the answer to that,” she said. “I’m not going to tell you!”

No one else in the family participates, making it an escape for a woman who has spent her life aiding the men in her family, first at home and then in campaigns. Now they joke about competing with animals for her affections.

Last Christmas, Josh Romney presented his father with a rubber horse mask. “It’s remarkable how much it makes him look like a horse,” the younger Mr. Romney said. Wear the mask, he told his father, and “maybe Mom will pay as much attention to you as she does to the horses.”

That's just filthy.

Maybe I've just been missing the double-entendres the Mormons have been uttering all these years.

"I'm a little bit country, and he's a little bit rock and roll..."

Oh, my God...Donny & Marie were obscene!

Dressage... kinky.

I wonder if Oven Mitt is into fox hunting too.
