He is showing his true character, liar, cheat, insensitive bully, the kid we all remember was the big jerk from our high school days.

By the way, this was a well-balanced clip from ABC. It makes Romney look even WORSE!

2. One of the men involved apologized to Lauber when he had run into him at an airport.

He quoted Lauber as saying, "This was something that I had carried with me my entire life."

I'm glad that someone from that group apologized to him & I hope it eased Lauber's pain.

Romney "doesn't remember".

Mittsy married a woman who dyes her hair blonde and owns several dressage horses.

Coincidence? Inquiring minds want to know!

I think Mittsy remembers. That awkward laugh gave him away.

questioning his ability to run this country, whether it's due to health or to his being too wrapped up in himself & his rich surroundings.

barely been tapped--there's a treasure trove there, and even more as a consequence of the debate they had ( Ted beat RMoney like a rented mule).

and either participated in or witnessed the assault remember it with remorse. None of them are interviewed on camera. Romney (on camera) can't recall the event, chuckles and offers the "but if..." apology. The classmate stooge (on camera) whom the news finds to portray the incident as a harmless prank, chuckles, but wasn't there. Conclusion: It's all a matter of opinion, one as good as another, just a difference of perception, now forget about it and watch the commercial about how to make your dick rise again or your waistline move inside the orbit of your shoulders. Welcome to the Brave New World of balanced corporate news.

4. Inappropriate laughter from Romney when he is confronted with his cruel behavior of the past. Rachel

showed a few clips of this in one of her shows. What's so frigging funny you jerk! His wife Ann seams to think it was OK as well, she was laughing right along with him. They deserve each other. Both insensitive human beings.
