I think the sympathy will be pouring in for Romney now.

1. I would love to hear Cranbrook's excuse for

not booting Romney from their hallowed halls after his "prank". Any other school would have suspended him with a caution to the parents not to bring him back without a note from his psychologist.

5. Back then, no not really

boys will be boys...

These days the only reason is zero tolerance on weapons, not the assault.

8. Yes,really. Even back then a violent assault

would get you kicked out of school.Unless you were the pampered son of the governor.

9. Or otherwise well connected

I was the target of bullies. Trust me, they threatened to deal with me, when I finally defended myself. Thankfully the school bus drivers saw it, intervened and told the principal. I transfered the very next year.

Not much has changed. What is funny is when I recently, sort off, met one of the ring leaders. Like Romney, she does not remember it at all.

2. Come on guys

you know who you are, come out and tell the country how you laughed and gaffawed when Romney bullied another student...come on, tell is it was all in fun, no harm no foul.


Callus son of a bitch.

3. FYI: Cranbrook costs $10,000 a year.

4. Good! Keep this story in the news!

An incident like this won't be over shadowed by stories of Rmoney's "good" behavior, it doesn't work that way.

6. I want to see the blue blazers making the rounds defending Romney

[siligut]

10. They will undoubtedly make him look even worse

I want to see it too.

7. Say it again: PREP SCHOOL. Not "high school." PREP SCHOOL.

Complete with patches on the blazer pocket.
