Washington Post: D.C. sources say 8-year-old Mitt Romney pulled Mary Sue Sugg's pigtails in second grade. The Romney campaign denied this was part of the war on women.
romney’s a bully, pure and simple. He chopped of some guys hair, not to make him feel included, but to make him feel different, bad and excluded. romney likes to fire people, dismantle business to take the remains as profit.
With that history, why would he change as president? romney is a very bad choice to have in a position of power.
I think Henry Payne is trying to ridicule the reaction to this old news, but I think it will backfire.Orchestrating a team (by virtue of being class/sports leader) to assault a fellow schoolmate is vile and would normally be considered grounds of expulsion Bullies, especially those that are “anointed” by being privileged, tend not to change their stripes as they get older.I’m happy to be proven wrong, but I think this fellow has been rich all his life, and seems to consistently indicate that he will get whatever he wants, irrespective of the expense – to other people.BTW, I am a foreigner, but do love the USA. Hope you guys can fix it.
Stephen, I don’t like Romney but “major liability for the GOP” is probably going too far. This is a group that booed when Ron Paul brought up the golden rule during the debates. I interpret Henry Payne’s ‘toon to be saying "I voted for a coke-snorting drunken frat boy…twice….and you want me to get upset about Romney’s youth?" The party will go through some work but they will line up behind him. When McCain ran he was initially reviled by portions of the party. But once he was the nominee they were all on board.

williard mitt romney is a bully. There’s no changing that. he should not be in power, especially President of the United States of America. he s-—Left with an extremely bad economy, two unfunded wars where we are not wanted and facing a congress stacked with the party of “NO” and he has turned things around better than rightwing/republicans will admit. The republicans has spent the entire time trying to make Obama look bad. The FAILED republican policies are what is holding the USA back.-He is in favor of marriage equality, get over it. It is happening no matter how much kicking the bigots do.
Bain Capital’s main M.O. was to make money by dismantling and destroying companies, and jobs, for a profit via “manipulation” and “power”. It’s a “bullying” way to profit, and an adult version of what Mitt was like as a kid. When the"incident’ occurred, the “hair clipping” was apparently minor, but the ACT of suppressing another person’s freedom, and insulting them through force, not so “minor”.
“Blood money” is also paid from guilt, or as a cover-up, for your majority actions.
My brother-in-law as a teen was always “getting a pass” from his parents, because they always said his friends were a “bad influence”. They never recognized HE was the LEADER of the “gang” and the bad influence. He grew up to be a jerk, and it’s a common story.
School tomfoolery is okay. Yep, Columbine, Kip Kinkel, okay. AS to “shutting down” the office to find a “little girl”, it was a little RICH girl.
Also interesting how being open about “youthful indiscretion”, like well dope use, is wrong, but hiding and denying it, like well “W”, is okey-dokey. Hmm, I detect a “conservative” pattern, but putting a finger on it is like nailing down desertion.
“We’re supposed to gasp in horror at this ‘Mittcident’ yet ignore adult Obama marrying in, giving 20K to and sitting in a racist, anti-American “church” for 20+ years, a church whose idiot reverend Obes begged and bribed to STFU during the ’08 election.”That “Mittcident” was a case of violent assault that he never apologized for. How could Obama attend an “anti-American church” if he was a Kenyan Muslim as so many “conservatives” still assert?
And – surprise! – it looks like the WaPo, ah, “exaggerated” the whole story:http://foxnewsinsider.com/2012/05/11/family-of-alleged-romney-bullying-victim-says-prank-story-is-factually-incorrect/The WaPo has all the sterling journalistic integrity of NBC News. But hey, when you’re out to destroy Republicans, the ends always justify the means!

Mitt was a teen demonstrating his real propensities, which haven’t changed. The fact that he grew up with P.R. people doesn’t change his proclivities.
