Ann Romney has watched for over a year while her husband falsely accused the president of "apologizing for America," suggested he's not quite a real American because he doesn't understand this country -- and by the way, probably wasn't born here -- not to mention of running a campaign based on hate.

Ann Romney has watched for over a year while her husband falsely accused the president of "apologizing for America," suggested he's not quite a real American because he doesn't understand this country -- and by the way, probably wasn't born here -- not to mention of running a campaign based on hate.

But apparently, it's Mitt who's being "demonized."

ROMNEY: Well, I think the thing that I want to communicate to people, and that it's so important that people understand, is that Mitt and I do recognize that we have not had a financial struggle in our lives. But I want people to believe in their hearts that we know what it is like to struggle. And our struggles have not been financial, but they've been with health and with difficulties in different things in life. And in particular, for Mitt -- who really has been demonized in many ways as being heartless and for people to stand up and say, 'Excuse me. He was there when my son was dying of leukemia. He came to my son's bedside. He did all of these things for my son.' And then another woman saying how Mitt was there for her. So there's hundreds of those stories that haven't been told.

The hypocrisy of this is pretty staggering.

Barack Obama has been called a socialist, a communist, a Marxist, a Kenyan, a foreigner, a Muslim, a nigger, the magic negro, a dictator, a Manchurian Candidate, a racist, a homosexual, married to a man, anti-capitalism, Hitler, Stalin, tied to Murderous Communist Terrorists, treasonous, a backer of global currency, a dope dealer, an Islamic terrorist, the most anti-religious president in history, “a Muslim president who hates farming, hates the military, hates the U.S.,” and much, much more.

But you people need to stop saying mean things about Mitt.
