Conservatives are hitting back at claims that Mitt Romney in 1965 terrorized a classmate who some presumed to be gay: President Obama was a bully, too!

Several right-leaning news outlets are pointing to an excerpt in the President's memoir, "Dreams from My Father," in which Obama details how he teased and shoved a middle school girl named Coretta — the only other black student in his grade.

C’mon, guys, get off his back. He would have never bullied that little girl if he wasn’t high on pot and coke at the time.

I can do better than that, NY Daily News. The story about Romney is a fabrication.

Maybe they were rivals wooing the same boy.

I think a more pertinent point would be that Obama was raised in a culture that kills homosexuals. I don’t believe he has disavowed this or criticized it in the Muslim countries that do it. This bespeaks of either tacit approval or moral cowardice. If Obama’s handlers say his views have evolved, then the question becomes why do they think Romney’s views could not have evolved?

The only one’s allowed on his back are his boy toys.

I, thank God, am not one of those.

“Since I’m old enough to vividly remember those days I can tell you that in 1965 with long hair and “Beatle boots” becoming popular there was a lot of “us against them”, 1950’s style haircuts and clothes vs. the British invasion and there was a lot of short hair’s vs longhairs. It was first implied that the victim of the prank was gay and now it’s progressed to assuming he was gay, thus the outrage. But if you really want to talk about bullying what about Obamacare being passed despite 70% of the populace being against it? Obama is still bullying after all these years.”

Long hair in the 60s and 70s did not make one “gay” anymore than tatoos today make one a sailor or ex-con.

It was just following fads, nothing more and nothing less.
