It proves he plays fast and loose with facts. He is not the first politician to do so. People often embellish when pushed. And family history becomes tall tales, e.g., my dad stormed Normandy, my grandad was a lifeguard with Reagan.

What I would want to hear is a question to Romney on why he claimed one thing which he now agrees did not happen.

Forgetful? Family stories, i.e., that dad marched with MLK or mom for abortion rights?

The question is whether it is knowing deceipt as opposed to sloppiness.

The more troubling position for me is his stance against the BSA.

Regarding MLK, it is clear that Romney was leading the GOP in that era. Really doesn't matter, since his acts in leadership for civil rights shut down a claim of a call to authority to cover what one did not really stand for.
