Holding someone down and shaving their head is not a "prank". It is "assault". Tying a dog to a roof on a vacation is animal cruelty. The depth to which Romney campaign workers will sink to rationalize his lies and sick behavior is what is truly pathetic here.
That's right. Had Obama done that they'd still be talking about it.
You think Obama did these things - but did Obama ever sadistically assault another student with the complicity of yet others?
We know Romney did.
We'll never know what Oblama did or didn't do in prep school or anywhere else. In case you haven't noticed, the MSM has done NO vetting whatsoever on Oblama, nor will they. The liberals in the press are too busy trying to get him re-elected by publishing smear pieces about teenage Romney.

Oh we know that? You have proof? The kid is no longer with us, nobody can corroborate the account made by a group of Romney's former classmates (who now support Obama) and Romney himself can't recall, but still apologized deeply anyway just in case.
The Post, citing five people who attended the elite Cranbrook School in Michigan with Romney, said he had led a "posse" of fellow students against another student named John Lauber, who the newspaper said "was perpetually teased for his noncomformity and presumed homosexuality." The group reportedly pinned Lauber down while Romney forcibly cut his hair.
"It was a hack job," Phillip Maxwell, a childhood friend of Romney who was in the dorm room when the incident occurred and is now a lawyer, told the Post. "It was vicious."
Did you ever do anything like this?
This an attack and based on discrimination at 14. It tells something about him inside. You want to give someone this mean spirited power over war and soldiers?

There has been all kinds of vetting of Obama. Where have you been the past five years?
If you are dealing with a child being truly bullied, you need to understand the difference in a practical joke and bullying. They are not the same thing at all. One is done with malice and the intention of really destroying someone else to make yourself feel superior. The other is a prank that is just a joke...the sort of thing kids and even playful adults do. There is a world of difference.
This is a pathetic thread that shows how low certain people will go or have to go to discredit someone. It is stupid and meritless. The debts that someone will go to discredit a candidate make that person look less than intelligent.
If my child comes home with a forced haircut I'm going to press charges and maybe even more if the cops want to laugh about it. Don't try and make this look like a harmless prank. Do you think the kid felt great after it happened? What if it was your kid? This tells much about romneys true mean spiritedness.

Only one of his classmates said they supported Obama, and five of them who were involved in the incident independently verified that they were there and were involved.
And, of course, Romney can't recall the incident. He can't recall what his position on any issue was a week prior.
I would hate to see what stories my classmates would tell about me if I were running for president...I'm not a Romney supporter by any means but this article is just...stupid. So he made fun of other kids at school when he was 14; are you all the same people yall were when you were 14? How many people can honestly say that they never once made fun of another kid when they were in middle school? There are plenty of real issues to go after Romney for. This isn't one of them, and it isn't news.
Making fun and physical assault are very different.
I think this points out that Mittens had a huge sense of entitlement even as a teenager. He had to gather a group of preppy thugs to go force his beliefs on a guy that wasn't just like him. Of course he couldn't do it alone. He probably paid the people to help him. What a loser.

You know better than this. You're calling holding someone down by force and whacking off their hair to teach them a lesson a prank? That's disappointing.
