Here is where the Stark Reality of the Bias Press is Evident: Dems = GOOD, Republicans = BAD.

Jackie Kennedy, Democrat politician's wife, owning and riding expensive hunter-jumper horses, GOOD.
Ann Romney, Republican politician's wife, owning and riding a dressage horse (never mind the therapeutic good it does for her MS), BAD!


This is outside of politics and it is just expository of the blatant media hypocrisy!



Lawrence O'Donnell Mocks Ann Romney for Riding Horses to Combat Multiple Sclerosis

Lawrence O'Donnell, you ignoramus! My former wife has MS and one of the therapies recommended to her was hypo-therapy (riding a horse). It is a well known treatment, had you bothered to just look it up! And had the Romney's used the horse as a legitimate medical deduction, you would have mocked that too. Did you try to see if their horse was a Mormon and had several mares? That is your style of 'journalism.' How many 'questionable' legitimate tax deductions do you take? Bet few are missed, just as with your hypocrisy. m/r



Ann Romney Feared Her MS Would Lead to Future in Wheelchair - National Review Online

By Katrina Trinko   June 19, 2012
Campaigning alongside her husband, Ann Romney looks healthy, giving little sign of the Multiple Sclerosis she was diagnosed with in 1998. But during the early days of her diagnosis, Romney went from fit to having trouble even getting out of bed — and feared that the future might even be more difficult for her:
Ann Romney wondered how long her ability to walk, even with difficulty, would last. She recalls thinking, “I’m pretty sure I’m going to end up in a wheelchair, pretty sure I’m going to be really bad.” She resolved to take action and made a decision: “I want to do things that I love so much in life before I can’t do them anymore.”
So Romney bought a horse, Buddy. Romney is quick to tell me that Buddy wasn’t an “expensive” horse. “Having him,” she says, “was like the coolest thing in the world.” Buddy was a trail and first-level dressage horse, and he was Romney’s companion in those days. “I was pretty lonely,” she admits.
