Mitt Romney is a cruel man

I did some dumb things in school and high school but nothing like this. This thing tells us what is inside the heart of this man. It's a coward action and something very cruel.

Romney is a better liar than John Edwards.

That is the only difference between these two.

.

It is also interesting that Romney

Claims he does not recall the incident, how can that be when the other guys there do remember? Interesting also is the fact Romney named his book "no Apology" I have a bigger problem with the fact he will not stand up and be a man and regret the incident, instead he choses to lie about it.

Agree..

He's clearly lying!
No chance all his school mates who were there remember it and he doesn't. This will hurt him, and deservedly so.

He ganged up on a younger vulnerable kid, inciting others to join in and scarred him for life.

He lies about it now because it's too hard to admit any details of it without showing the act to be terribly dishonorable and cruel.

Of course he is lying, is there any doubt?

I would really have to question his competency, he should have stoop up admitted it and showed remorse. He could have turned this lemon into lemon aide, he could have come out against school bullying, using this as an example. He could have shown some compassion and empathy, if he is capable of it. We all have done a few things we regretted, but his knee jerk reaction is to lie and claim he can't remember. Sorry GOP, Romney is not electable, he can't win. Help us Ron Paul, you and your delegates are our only hope.

first story

It is the first story after Mittens for pres. Keep it up!!

I didn't notice the first time around this Washington Post artic

is 5 pages long! on page 2: He used to man the megaphone for the football team! Was W not also a cheerleader? (Give me a T! give me an E! Give me an A! Give me an M! ...what does it spell? Team Ronney is Done!)

SEO this

Actually this is a GREAT idea. Lets do all sorts of variants. Like "Mitt Romney Cruel" or even better, "Mitt Cruel Romney", or "Romney Cruel Man". lol that sounds funny actually and would surely grab peoples attention as google auto populates. How did that guy get Frothy associated with Santorum?

This is bullcrap!

School kids have been doing mean things to other school kids for hundreds if not thousands of years. If every presidential candidate were held accountable for every single mean thing he did in prep school, 80% of our past presidents would have probably never been allowed to be elected. They cut off the boy's hair. It's not like they castrated him.

This is not bullcrap

This is politics. It's a dirty game, but this is exactly how it's played. Bullying is a sensitive social issue and right now there is a lot of negative press against Romney because of a history of bullying, whether perceived or real. Joe average voter will react emotionally to this crap. We need to do anything to get Joe average voter to change his allegiance from Romney to Paul.

Well, this certainly isn't gonna do the trick.

Joe average voter doesn't vote in Republican primaries. Any news media criticism of Romney will be interpreted as a good thing by Conservative voters who DO vote in Republican primaries and will therefore strengthen their resolve to see Romney win and actually help them loosen their grip on their nose when they pull the lever for him. At this point the only thing that will help Ron Paul win states is massive grassroots outreach to people in Conservative regions like East Texas.

Maybe So.....But...

Agreed! Romney is a douche

Agreed! Romney is a douche for a lot of reasons but being an obnoxious schoolboy isn't one of them.

re a douche

does the boy not become the man? shame on Romney's childhood action.
shame on his subsequent non-apology. if you couple this with his supporting a draft vietnam war , non-compassion for those needing medical marijuana 2012 campaign and destructive cannibalizing good businesses for his personal ransacking of the money for himself. all of one cloth-- instructive.

So, he makes dogs

ride on the roof of the car and cuts people's hair off against their will. Really nice guy we have here.

8.5 Billion, 8.5 billion, 8.5 billion

"Romney faustian deal, Romney faustian deal, cruel Ronmey, repeat"
with emphasis on major newspapers etc. all stories seem to circle back to daily paul

This needs to go viral

Putting the dog on the roof was bad enough, but this story really reveals what an ahole this guy is. Until now I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, because everything else indicated he might be a decent guy.

However, I would never have done anything like this, nor would anyone with whom I associate.

An ahole like this does not deserve anyone's vote.

So how does this background story

Jive with his claims of not being given anything in life, and pulling himself up by his own bootstraps to get into the business world?

Please...

To Drive Bad Press

This creep is a monster. Back then gays were called queers- To drive bad press... what is the MAJOR newspaper that publihed the investigation over 8.5 billion? Also the article quoting Lady Rothschild (I feel sorry for Mitt Romney. He's made too many faustian deals) She would have advance knowledge- do they plan to burn him? Let's burn him early

Now We Know Why Obama Changed Gay Stance

Obama's going to use gay people in order to make Romney look like Attila the Hun. Don't discount how you can make someone look ugly. Obama, having failed with the debt, economy, liberties and wars, has to shift this thing over to social issues.

I aint voting for either one so they can both kiss my fat gay ass.

Cruel is just one of the words that comes to mind

how bout these too? anti-gay, bully, thug, etc

reedr3v's picture

As expected, a born politician, naturally a

bully that comes with that territory.
What interests me is the meticulous recitation of juicy details of Mitt's school life, yet we have a sitting president of whom the media never investigated his school years. Like most of O's past, it is a blank slate, kept that way so his unthinking supporters can project any dippy, romanticized scripts they'd like. He's given a total pass on his associates and grim beeline toward becoming our overlord.

I googled "Mitt Romney is a cruel man"

This thread (Mitt Romney is a cruel man) was the number one hit. Here was number two:

I know this is an old story, but maybe it's time to bring it back to the front pages.

Let's Send It to the Top

...no need to demean ourselves by being negative. Just promote others who are doing so. And, sure we all did somethings as kids we are not proud of; however....

...this is over the top..like tying firecrackers to cats tails (bush)...like bragging about eating dogs (bambam)...putting dogs on top of car for long trip...grinning pic with cash in hand after venture capital thefts...like etc. etc.

I love this approach. And, it is honorable. These are things I detest
that say a lot about character or lack thereof.

Everyone click the link

And everyone go to google and search "mitt Romney is a cruel man". This is SEO!!! It will drive traffic to DP to this article and promote the negative Mitt article.

Better Yet

...this falls under the category of *bully*...something that seems to be catching a lot of traction. This is the kind of thing bullies do, isn't it?
