Let's not forget the facts:

2) Drove drunk off a bridge with woman in the car who subsequently died (Ted Kennedy)

3) Got blow jobs in the oval office from an intern (Bill Clinton)

5) Accused of sexually assaulting an unnamed 18-year-old California woman (David Wu)

6) Resigned as NJ governor after admitting that he is "a gay American" (Jim McGreevey)

7) Had an affair with a male prostitute, who also conducted business in his home (Barney Fag)

8) Privately described then-candidate Barack Obama during presidential campaign as a black candidate who could be successful thanks in part to his “light-skinned” appearance and speaking patterns "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." (Harry Reid)

9) Involved with a prostitute while governor, subsequently resigned (Elliot Spitzer)

10) Admitted both he and his wife had extra-marital affairs (David Patterson)

11) Had an affair with (murdered) intern Chandra Levy (Gary Condit)

12) Had an affair with the wife of a top aide (Gavin Newsom)

13) Said in reference to Barack Obama "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy" (Joe Biden)

14) Resigned after allegations of making sexual advances towards a male staff member (Eric Massa)

15) Former Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) (Robert Byrd)

....and don't forget the computer porn star, Little Weiner!

It’s the WaPo’s version of the Dan Rather TANG story.

"...the most reasonable inquiry into Obama’s shadowy past...."

More of a foggy past, given that his Daddy was a Big a Mist.

They've done worse, but I thought Romney was a tad light in the loafers so a story saying he was out beating up gay people would be really out of character wouldn't it.

Still, as I've been predicting the Post and all the other Leftwingtards are going to be pushing the sex angle all the way through this race.

It's all they've got ~ and they'll use it to the fullest. Now, if his handlers could get him to shut his mouth about the gay lifestyle and attitudes he might actually get himself elected with 30 to 35% of the vote (his usual voting strength) with Obama down there at 15 to 20%.

I’m sure they’re just itching to dig up this kind of dirt on the Long Legged Mack Daddy. Oh wait, nobody remembers him being in school.

When you a commie lib with nothing to run on, you need to make sh*t up. That should be the commie ‘RATS’ new campaign slogan. Get rid of “FourWords” and use WE MAKE SH*T UP!!!

Back then, it was Surfers vs Cowboys. Surfers would put beach on their hair and skateboard in the sun to achieve the proper look.

Homosexuality did not exist.

Including, as it turns out, both a friend of Romney’s that the Post openly and fraudulently asserted had “long been bothered” by the haircut hazing… and the “victim’s” own family.

The Lynch Mob Media don't need no steenking truth!

The “free press” has voluntarily relinquished their freedom from government control and coercion. The mainline media has become slaves and dependents of the socialist regime.

The whole (hole?) story of our Fag-in-Chief pushing the black girl is false. She even admits it. You can see that Ayers wrote this as an attempt to show how compassionate Hussein was AFTER supposedly having shoved her. Never HAPPENED. Hey, somebody want to tell that idiot Hannity that Hussein NEVER EVEN WROTE the stupid book?????????????????????????

People should ignore anything they read in the Washington Post,even the want ads. Anyone who would advertise in the Post hasn’t got anything fit to sell. Not to me anyway.

I’m convinced that Obama was a dope addict and Romney is a liar.

Two more reasons that neither liberal will get my vote.

Well I guess the Washington (Com)Post is doing Romney a big favor. With this sloppy hit piece that is so easily debunked, they are serving to insulate Romney against further smear campaigns that the Obama campaign are no doubt contemplating for the general campaign.

It's still over three months away from the GOP convention and the mainstream media/Obama campaign have already shot their wad.

Right. Where'd you think those five boys who look like him came from?

It's amazing, but the media truly are the enemedia. Honestly, it makes me wonder whether we have a plethora of Manchurian ‘journalists’.
