Bring on the Dancing Horses

Today, Mitt' Romney's wife's horse danced in the London Olympics. Not having a T.V., I am unsure of whether or not the "dressage" competition was televised. Commenter nanute at Rumproast asks:


What are the odds of seeing any of this event on NBC? The only chance, is if the horse medals. Otherwise, it’s a safe bet someone, if not Romney himself, asked that the horse not be shown on the telecast.


Personally, I think that a decision by NBC not to broadcast the dressage event because they figured that the bronies would be clopping throughout the event, and broadcast networks are not allowed to show porn.

If Mitt Romney becomes President, perhaps he can nominate Rafalca to a cabinet post... horses in political positions are certainly not unprecedented. As much as I'd hate to see Romney win, if he does, bring on the dancing horses!

  1. Even if Mitt allows that corporations are people, I don't think he's ready to treat horses as people. I'm still kind of miffed that he blew off Ann's hobbyhorse in front of the media as if he was too cool for some dorky-ass Olympic dancing horse stuff--if anything, if he wants to tout his Olympic relationship and his relationship with the mother of his eerie chips-off-the-old-blockhead, he should have just up and owned the four-footed athlete:

    "That's our horse in the Olympics, my wife spent hard to get that horse Olympic-ready. We love the shit out of that beast. We want it to do well because of patriotism and pride and stuff--it's like family. Want to watch us feed it a carrot? Ann--go feed him a carrot. That's my charming wife feeding our Olympic horse a carrot--any questions?"

    But he doesn't like his life so that didn't happen. (Wife with a horse--what horse--what wife where? Bain what? Governor who?)

  3. But Mitt really does loves Ann's horse. As long as he can write it off as a business expense.

    He was too busy hunting small varmints to bolster his "manly man" credentials.

    I would watch that.

    Would you post it in a "Riddled After Dark" entry?

    The Interview

    My favorite line was "I like Apples. Mitt's an Android guy."

    But Mitt really does loves Ann's horse. As long as he can write it off as a business expense.

    The love that dare not neigh it's name.

    You American's are weirdos.
    I think I've said that before. ;)


    I could answer this in various ways:

    1. You say that like it's a bad thing.
    2. This is coming from a lady who stomps on vegetables. **DUCKS**
    3. Canada is America's "straight man".

    That's cool, it's kinda like a tag team of blogging.

  7. Bring on the dancing horses, so they can dance on my spine, because I will no longer want to live. OK, no need to be alarmed, I'm being hyperbolic, but geez I'd weep for this country.

    There is no "Dark side of Riddled" really. Matter of fact, it's all dark.

    And he's at least as competent as John Bolton.

    Don't worry, President Chubbington will save us all in about forty years.

    The lunatic is on the web!

    I don't think fortysomething Chubbington will have the same interests. I will like to have a beer with that guy.
