WASHINGTON (AP) -- Mitt Romney on Thursday countered the notion that he bullied high school classmates and insisted he didn't know some were gay.
The Republican presidential candidate apologized to anyone he may have offended by what he said were "hijinks and pranks during high school." His comments in a hastily arranged radio interview followed a Washington Post report Thursday that he had held down classmate John Lauber and cut off his bleached blond hair when they were classmates at a prestigious boarding school in the wealthy Detroit suburb of Bloomfield Hills, Mich.

Does anyone know anything about what Obama did in high school?
“Washington Post report Thursday that he had held down classmate John Lauber and cut off his bleached blond hair when they were classmates...”
That’s not a prank, that is assault.
So if he had known the guy was gay he’d have held off on the haircut stunt?
Wonder if Mitt found himself on the wrong end of other brawls.
Well, if he was holding down any male classmates, I doubt it was to cut off his hair in a prank.
It also didn’t happen. And I’m no Romney supporter as anyone here can attest.
Well done GOP Elite. Thanks SO much for giving us this ... “thing” as the nominee.

Crack, kicked puppies (and ate them)...
Your not suppose to ask such questions of the Won..
Don’t be silly. That was long ago and far away.
So what do we have now, Romney was a homophobe
and a bully, I’m sure there is more coming.
Be that as it may, I hope if Mitt becomes president he gives a haircut to a lot of liberals.
If you have ever attended a private boarding school, you know that pranks like this are done all the time. It seems to go with the territory. When I was in a boarding school, we turned on the fire hoses on another dormitory. We competed with other classmates all the time and at times in not so nice ways. We were kids and kids do crazy things.
And Ayers wrote in Obama’s book how Obama admitted to bullying a little girl named Coretta.waiting for the media to investigate that one
Headlines to come...
“Romney Still Calls Dodgeball Smear the Queer”
“Romney Gave Gays in School Atomic Wedgies”
“Romney Gave Gays Titty Twisters”
you have got to be kidding me...high school? sigh
He died in 2004. So we don’t know and his three sisters didn’t say. But the Left needs him to be. So he is.
OBAMA’S SORDID HIGH SCHOOL PAST

“During his high school years, Obama hung out with communist radical Frank Marshall Davis; in 2007, the Los Angeles Times reported that during his high school days, “he felt the first stirrings of anger toward whites. He says he also delved into black nationalism.” He was “offended or even enraged when white classmates adopted black street slang or revealed their underlying consciousness of his race by going out of their way to tell him how much they admired a black musician or athlete.”
Exactly. I’m going to write the Washington Post with this Breaking News.
