  • You know it's going to be a nasty campaign when Obama's watercarriers dig up Mitt's Cranbrook days.

    It truly is amazing that they can dig and write a story like this and yet we still haven't seen an Obama college transcript.

    Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?

    Long and short.

    Cranbrook Mitt and his high school friends held down and cut this dude's hair. Guy turned out to be gay and has been dead for 8 years.

    Romney led 1965 Cranbrook bullying incident over student's hairstyle, Washington Post reports | Detroit Free Press | freep.com

    A Romney campaign aide told the Post that Romney, a Michigan native whose father was governor at the time, had no recollection of such an incident. But this morning, a Washington Post reporter tweeted that the Republican candidate had apologized if a high school prank had gone too far.

    Since he's dead, that makes what mittens did to him okay?

    freep got most of it but the Trib also had this little nugget...

    "The Post also detailed incidents where Romney said “Atta girl,” in class to a closeted gay student, and deliberately held a door closed while an sight-impaired teacher walked into it.

    Interesting that the students were never punished for this incident if it was really that bad. Surprised he was even allowed to get away with having long hair at a school like Cranbrook. I'm guessing the head master took Mittens aside and told him to make sure this kid was in compliance with the school's handbook :)

    that door story makes no sense. If he wasn't holding it closed then he still would have walked into it, right?

    Explain it to me then. How does the mere act of holding a door shut cause somebody with poor sight to walk into it?

  • Mitt was an asshole when he was younger, he was an asshole to the cop who arrested him and he's probably still an asshole. Doesn't change whether his policies are right or wrong.

    what a guy

    Yes, because people should be held accountable for life for dumb things they do as teenagers.

    How come the media has no problem digging up a story like this, or that GWB had a DUI in his twenties, got his college transcripts to show he was a mediocre student, and yet we can't get a single academic record, transcript, law review article, about the smartest man to ever be in the white house?

    Stunning.

    Shocker that yesterday he goes on ABC news to announce he "evolved" on gay marriage, and today we have a WaPo story saying Mitt picked on people because they were gay. You libs are being played like a violin.

    So out nowhere a week ago we have Biden and members of the executive branch going on TV to stake out a position on this topic, culminating with Obama's announcement yesterday, with every network covering it as if this was a key issue in the race. Just coincidentally, today, we get a news article that Romney picked on kids thought to be gay 50 years ago. Sorry for thinking there wasn't some coordination, now expect another week of the "war on gays" meme to play out.

    I understand that this upsets you as giving rights to others usually does piss off the cons on here, but you're going to have to accept that homosexuals should be able to get married, women can work, and black people can vote. I know these are very uncomfortable idea for you, but you'll get through it.

    " According to Getsinger, Romney opened a first set of doors for Wonnberger, but then at the next set, with other students around, he swept his hand forward, bidding the teacher into a closed door. Wonnberger walked right into it and Getsinger said Romney giggled hysterically as the teacher shrugged it off as another of life’s indignities."

    I didn't take any position on the issue of gays and marriage, I merely pointed out that there appears to be a bit of coordination and guess who has an ad up and running on this very topic right now?

    http://www.thedailybeast.com/videos/2012/05/10/obama-camp-taking-gay-marriage-stance-and-running-with-it.html

    Now if you're all for a media that is in lockstep with the government then you will get the exact government you deserve. As to your other comments on women and blacks, it is well documented that libs to simply choose to denigrate those who disagree with them (ironic considering they proclaim themselves as the open minded crowd) as mysoginists and racists rather than take on a serious discussion on the issues of the day.
