If this is the best opposition research can do for the Democrats, this is gonna be a Jimmy Carter landslide election. C'mon. Dragging up high school antics forty years ago? Please. Then, on the other side, "In His Own Words… Obama Admits to Smoking Pot, Drinking Beer, Doing Drugs… And Bullying Fat Nerdy Black Girl in High School" (link: http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/05/.... ) This story is a HUGE DISTRACTION! |

Heh - so the retraction (if necessary, and it happens at all) will happen on Friday afternoon... right after the weekly "White House News We Don't Want Anyone To Pay Attention To" dump.
Cheers -

I couldn't care less if this is true, honestly.
I've got plenty of other reasons to despise Mittens, which I consider a lot more important, like he's a gun-grabber, liberal ****-stain RINO who is an Obama-lite almost everything. **** him, and the Repugs who decided HE should be the chosen one, simply because he seems more 'electable.'

Come on Karl, you're smarter than this. Don't you think that it's a bit "coincidental" that this "story" was released one day after Obama's so-called change of heart? Even the family of the supposed victim is denouncing the story and claiming that this was plainly false and Romney didn't "gay-bash."
I'm not pro-Romney for any reason other than he's not a lying communist like Obama. But we should be discussing the bigger question of how/why this story was ready to go so quickly after Obama's announcement. Gov/media collusion maybe? Not that it's surprising...

How does the press know so much about Romney's past and nothing about O'Bama?
I would love to know what O'Bama's grades were in school, see some of his college papers, which would reveal his thoughts on race relations,the constitution, etc. Would like to know if he was ever arrested for possession of drugs (he has admitted to abusing drugs in his book). Finally, would like to hear from X-girlfriends to see what kind of person he was in his youth.
Don't worry I don't plan on holding my breath until I read about this from the liberal media.

So? How can anybody craving a public office be a nice person?
Seems - counter intuitive to expect it. I mean some jobs, like a prison guard or a somebody who cleans up crime scenes, or the guy that kills cattle at the slaughter house, you just don't expect sensitive, pleasant souls to do it.
The person who wants to be President knows he's going to have to claw and bite, tooth and nail, throwing mud with both hands to kill his opponents reputations figuratively and kill thousands of faceless people around the world literally as CIC.
Seems like the meanest, nasty, son-of-a-bitch is a perfect fit. If he stomped kittens to death and shot puppies he'd be perfect.

I don't want to have a drink with the President. I want someone who can do the job and not be a complete ****up like Obama and Bush. That is why i will be voting for the gay bashing Mormon.

I know how bad Obama has sucked. I need to find out how bad Romney will. Big difference.

Docj wrote..I thought this had already been debunked and walked-back by the WaPo. No? In politics, that doesn't matter. Many minds have already been zipped shut: "See, I knew that the Repuke was an evil homophobe! Long Live Obama, Lord of Light!" This was a planned joint operation of the White House & the Main Slime Media. It has achieved its purpose. Mittens was always unelectable. Why do you think he got the Stupid Party nomination? BTW - this is just the beginning. There will be MANY MORE joint WH-MSM operations through the rest of the election season. I'm glad I don't have cable. I can ignore the majority of this crap through November.

Why this distraction of a stupid story and what does the Washington Post hope we don't see? THAT is the bigger question.
This happened in 1965 - I don't care. Too many things have changed and there are much, much, MUCH bigger fish to fry.

Imagine someone running for president 30 years from now. We could have a total saint running against one of these wall street villain stooges. But you just know the stooge's campaign will dig up one tiny 10 second clip from 2006 and that will be all it takes to put the stooge in office. I just hope it doesnt take that long for the masses to realize that our electoral system is broken.

Interesting how the Lame Stream Media can dig up this crap on Romney from 47 years ago, but could not - and still will not - tell us: 1) where Obummer was born; 2)what religion Obummer is, 3)what his grades were, 4)anything at all about his association with Willam Ayers, etc. etc.
The Obummer was probably the least vetted candidate in the modern era of politics.
And South Park hits a homerun with the turd vs. douche analogy.

Well, here we go again. It's heating up again. More media bias and distortions. Just like in 2008. During his last campaign Obama told us so many in-you-face lies that I couldn't count them on both hands. I'd need at least 8 arms. Has the media played any of the video(s) of his 2008 whoppers? Nope. As much as I despise Romney if Obama is reelected as a lame-duck president we are hopelessly screwed as a nation.

Problem is there were more anti-gay evangelicals on the sidelines than gays sitting it out before Barry decided to wade in on this. Now the evangelicals are up in arms and willing to back the guy saying he is against gay marriage. Add that in with blacks that simply don't approve of gay lifestyle and now you have shift in the possible November electorate. The evangelicals got Bush a second turn in office in spite of Iraq fatigue. Watch this one carefully....
And the media's role in this (fake) story shows you once again how willing they are to get on their knees for Barry every chance they get.

There's a hell of a lot more to the game here than meets the eye.
Among other things Obama playing that card with "gay marriage" has trashed Johnson's strategy -- near as I can tell he was trying to glom the LGBT vote since both other candidates were either indifferent or openly hostile (Romney has been known openly hostile since Day #1)
Obama pulled the rug out from under Johnson with his recent announcement, orphaning his strategy. IMHO it was a mistake for him to focus there in the first place as that part of the electorate tends to lean pretty far left anyway but now he's ****ed and done with it and has to pivot -- fast -- toward economic issues or he's toast.
