It’s not wether the allegation is true,it’s the seriousness of the allegation.... so said Dan rather re Bush’s flight/vacation records

Obama admitted: "I kept playing basketball, attended classes sparingly, drank beer heavily, and tried drugs enthusiastically."

Alright! Obama fried his brain. Mitt brought a pair of scissors to a hazing attack which may or may not have succeeded (and it looks like it didn't if the sisters are right).

In U.S. "journalism" of the 21st century, truth for its own sake is not even a consideration.

This is the Orwellian world of groupthink and newspeak. A "higher truth" prevails (nevermind that it's nothing but untruth).

Unless he drove drunk, had an accident and left a woman to die in the submerged car who really cares what he did in high school.

Oh wait, the dems don’t even care about that.

I miss World Weekly news with Bat boy. At least it was more factual than NBC.

There can’t even be exceptions any more that test (the old word is “prove”) the rule. No, history has to be edited to factor out those untidy exceptions to received dogma. This is also why so many insist falsely that “Stand Your Ground” law factored in the Trayvon/Zimmerman altercation. It’s too tempting to rewrite the story.

Sooner or later, the Criminal Media Syndicate, formerly called the Mainstream Media, will p!$$ off every person who still tunes in. It will still be subsidized by the government, but, like Pravda, it will be universally regarded as pure propaganda.

a) It was a stupid story to begin with.
b) Its publication literally HOURS after Obama’s gay marriage announcement shows obvious collusion with the Democrats.
c) Its publication mainly gave Obama critics a perfect opportunity to point out how the mainstream media can ferret out minor incidents in the High School life of the Republican candidate, but can’t manage to come up with anything on most of the (fairly recent) adulthood of the current President.
d) Complete fail.

Chuck Todd leaves out the story in Obama’s audio book where he says he screamed, “Leave me alone!”, then pushed a pudgy, dark-skinned girl and made her cry and run away as his buddies rewarded him with a round of laughter. A true hero.

That's a great answer to just about any allegation they throw at him.

So the spineless cowards of the progressive liberati are attempting to do a hatchet job on Romney for being a bully. Forgive me for being a throwback to the stone age, but I'm glad to hear that. Today I have a little bit of respect for him, yesterday I had none.

I don’t need the story re-written. I don’t much like Romney, but if he he makes fun of queers he moves up a few notches in my book.

At this point one has to wonder if some people in the msm are on the DNC payroll?

I expect Romney will get the ‘real man’ vote, the women who love ‘real men’ vote, parents who fear for their children’s future and many conservative black Christians who fear for us all.

Considering this is the kind of sleazy behavior Romney pulled in the primary, I’m not about to cry for Obama-lite Mitt.
