    I've always said my political beliefs are "all over the place."

    That's all fine and dandy, but it wasn't a fight genius.

    Yes I'm sure from a bully's perspective it was all just fun and games.

    not going away for Mitt --

    via thinkprogress --

    More high school classmates of Mitt Romney have come forward in the wake of a blockbuster Washington Post story on his bullying of a presumed gay classmate, with one telling ABC News that Romney engaged in “bullying supreme”, and saying that he witnessed one event that could be considered “assault and battery.” He described Romney and his friends as a “pack of dogs” who targeted other victims.

    If we dug around in every President's junior high, high school and college years, we probably could find some embarrassing acts for each and every one. The Kennedy prep school clan (Jack, Robert and Ted) would probably lead the league. Who cares?

    I'd much rather have Obama's masters degree thesis to read? Why is this public document so hard to find? Why won't he release it? Did he even write one? There are so many skeletons in the Presidential closets. If we are going to poke around in Romney's old closets, why not Obama's?

    I assume that this is probably because he didn't get a masters degree, and this may be a likely cause for its absence.

    I forgot whether or not you were dumb or just trolling. Actually I ain't even mad. It's a nice day out.

    More history of Mitt bullying the gay community

    Mitt Romney Bullied LGBT Youth Commission As Governor

    more from the article--

    Earlier in the year, Romney had vetoed $158,000 in funding for "intervention services and crisis housing for sexual violence in the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community." As the Patriot Ledger reported on July 22, 2006, the Democratic-controlled state legislature overrode his veto.

    In both 2003 and 2004, he vetoed funding for a "statewide and community based suicide prevention, intervention, postvention and surveillance activities and the implementation of a statewide suicide prevention plan," according to government documents. Romney said the funding was not consistent with his recommendation to the legislature. The state House and Senate eventually overrode that veto as well.

    I really don't see how the actions of a teenage Mitt Romney are anymore relevant to this election than a teenage Barack Obama. It's an interesting story but not one I am going to judge the 60 something Mitt Romney on.

    You're really just another run-of-the-mill teabagger, aren't you?

    Really, the most important and exciting information in this thread is all about the Shart Party's upcoming political run.

    Shart Party 2012.
