I would feel better if it were discovered that Mitt Romney bullied someone for being a socialist, or cut the beard of a Karl Marx statue.
Bullying and assault and battery is not a harmless prank. It appears Mitt admits to doing this? He should remember if he did it or not.
And the story continues to crumble....
Advance Indiana: Washington Post Fabricates Story Of Romney Being Gay-Bashing Bully
Don't let that keep you from eating it up though, sheep.
If it didn't happen, why hasn't he said as much?
Romney says he doesn't remember the incident, which often means "I'm not admitting anything." He apparently did apologize though. Another participant remembers the incident and has spoken openly about it. I suspect this will mostly blow over, but sneak into the rhetoric during the campaign.If it didn't happen, why hasn't he said as much?
Romney: "Dude, why did you say that stuff to the news? I thought you were my friend. The media is killing me"
Maybe he didn't do it, maybe he did. Maybe he's not sure, so he's trying to be vague so that they can't pin a cover-up fabrication on him in case his memory is failing him on this incident. Can everybody but me remember everything they did 30+ years ago?
I don't remember much from high school.
I would remember doing something that cruel, though. It would haunt me.
Would you still remember it if it didn't happen?
CBS says five classmates. As this article points out, being "young and irresponsible" isn't rare. Mitt could have picked a better transgression though. Given today's political landscape, a Mormon getting drunk at the prom would have been better than bullying gays.Who? Stu White?
