Here's the rest of the Obama "bullying" incident

[maxrandb]

Despite appearing as the paragraph directly below the Coretta story in Dreams of my Father, somehow the "wingnuts" leave this out. Kind of makes the story they are pushing a little different, don't ya' think?

"For the rest of the afternoon, I was haunted by the look on Coretta’s face just before she had started to run: her disappointment, and the accusation. I wanted to explain to her somehow that it had been nothing personal; I’d just never had a girlfriend before and saw no particular need to have one now. But I didn’t even know if that was true. Iknew only that it was too late for explanations, that somehow I’d been tested and found wanting; and whenever I snuck a glance at Coretta’s desk, I would see her with her head bent over her work, appearing as if nothing had happened, pulled into herself and asking no favors."

Remembrance and remourse from a 9 year old...obfuscation and amnesia from a 16 year old. Yeah, the Romney assault and Obama shunning a little girl are EXACTLY the same.

How ass-hattingly stupid do they think their Faux News viewers are? Oh.....nevermind!

Your link answered a question I was going to post tonight. You read my mind.

11. Wow

These righties think these two incidents are the same?

2. Help a busy girl out?

I missed the Obama bullying incident. Is there an OP you can direct me to?

3. There are a few

but they are wingnut sites that I won't link too.

Basically, they are saying that Obama shoving a little girl on the playground (wriiten about with reflection and remourse in his memoir)when they were both in 4TH grade, is JUST THE SAME as Willard RMoney having a bunch of goons tackle a kid to the ground and hold him while Willard took a pair of clippers to the kids hair...WHEN HE WAS 16 and in High School.

7. They'll do and say anything, won't they?

Romney denies even remembering the incident, which, if true, says a lot more about his despicable character than if he's actually lying. Who forgets doing something like that? Unless they've done so many more heinous deeds that it becomes so low on the totem poll as to be forgotten. Or he suffers from a personality disorder.

Shoving a little girl on the playground both in 4th grade and still feeling remorse as an adult is a far cry from what the dog abuser has done.

6. RW'ers screaming 'Obama's a bully' by talking about something he wrote in his OWN book.

It really doesn't work but they are desperate.

8. Thanks.

See my comment post #7. (So I don't look like an idiot for repeating myself.)

10. Well, they are pretty stupid. For most, their stupidity is challenged only by their racism. nt
