50 Years Later, a Bullying Case Snares Romney
The New York Slimes ^ | May 10, 2012 | ASHLEY PARKER and JODI KANTOR

The day after President Obama endorsed gay marriage, Mitt Romney found himself responding to allegations that as a teenager he taunted a prep school classmate who later came out as gay.

I'll bet that if they dig a little deeper they'll also discover that he smoked a cigarette as well.

Riiiiiiighhht.... I am sure the voters are going to be absolutely devastated.

Funny thing is, though... Stories like this are likely to help Mitt more than hurt. He may — again MAY — have the Republican nomination sewn up, but his personal stock with Conservatives is still decidedly weak.

When stories like this hit the news, they forcibly remind Conservatives of the depths to which the MSM will sink to attack Republicans — ANY Republican — and the lengths to which they will go to protect Obama.

If this represents their best shot, they’re in trouble.

If we knew anything about Obama I’m sure we’d find much worse. He already admitted to eating a dog. It would be interesting to hear about his background in the religion of peace, if he stoned to death any women, did any beheadings, raped any kids and the other lovely things Muslims do to pass the time.

Much to my chagrin, I have been finding myself reacting to the lies Ubama and state-controlled media have been throwing at Rodney.

They keep this up, and I may not feel bad about voting for him in 6 months, 22 days, 18 hours, 7 minutes and 23 seconds from now.

Not that I'm counting.

This is not enough. We need to know the ratio of gold stars to frowny faces he got in kindergarten.

I heard that Romney once gave somebody cooties because he refused to take his cootie shot in middle school.

Funny how we can get stories about something that involved Romney 50 years ago, but we cannot get any information about Barry’s citizenship—his schooling—his grades—his actual participation in the ‘Haaavaad Review’, his past associates & possible girlfriends, etc. Barry is barely 50 years old.

I wonder now if all this flap about Barry’s support for Gay Marriage is a prelim to the world finding out that Barry himself had/has/is in a Gay relationship himself?

Feels like we are being softened up for something.......

The media shoved Romney down our throats, and now that he's taken out the competition from the Right, they've let loose on him. JUST AS PREDICTED.

It reminds me of that scene in Braveheart, when the King order the mercenaries to attack first, then orders his archers to fire on the whole lot of them. That's what the Left has done here.

Iowahawk's take:

"He bullies a boy, you bully a girl. He puts a dog on top of a car, you put one in the oven. That's my way - that's the CHICAGO way." :)

So lets say you find out that Barry is gay would that change your mind about him and would you vote for him—I know it would not change my mind about him and I would never ever vote for him ever ever ever! Gay not gay likes gay marriage doesn't like gay marriage . What matters to me is know he is an evil SOB.

Anybody else find it interesting that the Post story on bullying a person who later comes out of the closet comes one day after Obama supports gay marriage. I’m sure there was no coordination here - none at all.

The press left ‘biased’ and went straight to ‘surreal’.

Funny how NYT forgot to mention bullying story. Flashback “Coretta” is Joella Edwards http://is.gd/2tPX9Q

This AM the local daily disappointment published a letter which almost too good to have been penned by one of the locals: “Apparently I am supposed to be more angry at the way Romney spends his money then how Obama spends mine.”

LOL.........right you are. If this is the best the left can do then this country is in worse shape than I thought. I guess I’ll never be able to run for public office......I was a rotten kid. Romney isn’t my choice but this is going too far. Hell’s Bell’s we can’t even find out what our esteemed (sarc) president did 15 years ago and we won’t ever if the press and his comrades have anything to say about it.
