Forget Romney’s High School Record; Plenty Of Other Reasons Not To Vote For Him

May 11, 2012

Filed Under: BILL'S BLOG

Were you the perfect student in high school?

Well, now we know Mitt Romney wasn’t. But, guess what? Neither was I.

The Washington Post is out with a giant expose about pranks carried out by young Mr. Romney at the exclusive Cranbrook School – including taunting, tackling and cutting the hair of a closeted-gay classmate.

Now, you know me. I’m no fan of Mitt Romney’s. But, on this one, I’ll give him a pass.

I’d hate to have anyone judge me on the stupid things I did in high school. Mitt Romney should no more be held responsible for hazing fellow students in high school than Barack Obama should be held responsible for eating dog as a six-year old in Indonesia.

Why did the Post waste time on this anyway? Is this supposed to be the next Watergate?

All you need to know about Mitt Romney is: He wants to give millionaires another tax cut. He’s anti-workers rights, women’s rights and gay rights. He wants to end Medicare and Social Security. He’s anti-choice and anti-same-sex marriage. He wants to continue the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

That’s reason enough to vote against him. Leave his high school years out of it.

That’s my parting shot for today.
