Mitt Romney has a target on his back. Democrats want to cast doubt on the integrity and character of the Republican Presidential candidate. They had to stretch really hard and far back to come up with something, which may or may not have happened. Either way, the article accuses Romney of pulling a prank in high school in the 1960s -- five decades ago. Susan Swift writes about the Washington Post's story of alleged bullying:
The Democrats may have made a big blunder by going after Romney's high school past. That opens the door for equal criticism about President Barack Obama's high school behavior and crimes. The president admitted to regularly using drugs and hanging out with radicals and communists like Frank Marshall Davis. The president, then known as "Barry Obama", has more to explain than Mitt Romney -- even if the allegation of bullying did occur (which I doubt). Ben Shapiro reports in Breitbart about Obama's high school dayz:
The Washington Post's controversial exposé on the young Mitt Romney just became more controversial. Presented as an investigative journalism piece, Jason Horowitz’s article contrasts sharply with a similar "flashback" article on Romney recently published in the June 2012 print edition of Automobile Magazine by author David Murray. Both articles chronicle anecdotal events in Romney’s teen years as told by classmates and friends. But while both quote some of the same people, the Washington Post article contains several inexplicable inconsistencies, omissions and false inferences.

In his memoir, Obama talked about routinely getting high. “Junkie. Pothead,” he wrote.... The Chicago Tribune reported back in 2007 that Obama thanked the “Choom Gang” in his high school yearbook; “chooming” was Hawaiian slang for smoking pot. The Honolulu Advertiser reported that Obama’s senior portrait “prominently displayed … A package of ‘Zig-Zag’ rolling papers and a matchbook.” This activity is certainly more reflective of Obama’s ideological history than Mitt Romney’s pranks on teachers and fellow students.

Hula girl - Friends not Fol... 2012/05/14 21:57:01Doesn't matter what candidate did in high school in 1960s
+5Obama was a racist bully in school and he was beat up for it and he still is a racist bully so if he wasn't to open that can of worms then let all those worms crawl out.
If we blame Romney for being a bully then we blame Obama for being a druggie and a thief I really doubt he wants his high school days looked into matter of fact we cannot because they are sealed unlike Romneys.
The birthers have more evidence than that so I guess you believe them too?
All this story has is a high school rumor refuted by the family of the victim, and a couple of the people it called witnesses.
Then their own Vice pres delivers the gift that will keep on giving right thru the election.
.
Making Obama come out of the closet has all but assured that the 75% of the Christians in America will rise up send his Skinny ass back to Chicago to Disorganize some communities.
All Cons should write a Thank you letter to Biden at the soonest .
O and keep digging up irrelevant tripe ..Its hilarious
You think that anyone didn't know that Obama smoked pot in high school? That's old news. So did Bill Clinton, so did GW. What's your point?
Smoking pot and bullying aren't anywhere close to the same set of concern to me or anyone else. Only you are trying to spin it that way, though. Have fun with that.
No wonder Trevon martin is dead, these people are petrified of black people.
The birthers have more evidence than that so I guess you believe them too?
Birthers have birth certificates SS# that do not match his birthplace, witnesses, aliases, and the DNC document that conveniently omits the eeligibility clause.
Far more than this story has; so if you believe this you should believe them.
BTW: The evidence whas not thrown out of the trial it was deemed irrrelevent because it seems there are no requirements at all in Georgia to be on the ballot. Obama's Lawyer stated even Mickey Mouse could be on the ballot. Which is both funny and scary at the same time.
