1) How many people were involved in the Kerry Swift-boating incident. Did you just take their word for it because there were so many of them?
2) If he outright denied it, then there would be lots of Obamabots like JoeB calling him an outright liar. How is he supposed to prove a negative, which would be demanded of him.
3) I agree it fits his personality... that is not proof that this happened.

We all do things in HS and MS we aren't proud of because we lack the life experience to really understand teh subtlies of right and wrong.
The thing is, from what I can see, Romney's character defects have followed him well into adulthood. He's rich, he's entitled, he can abuse anyone he wants, and they'd better not bitch about it.
For once, it has been a while, I agree with you about his character, but I have to ask you (and myself) is it possible that our feelings about him are slanted by "class envy"?
I don't like the man or his opponent. I think he is exactly as you describe... rich, thinks he's entitled, abusive and what not. Then again, I despise the arrogant, and there is no doubt in my mind that he is one arrogant SOB.

Still, Romney is a Doer. Obama is a Taker.
For once, it has been a while,
How can Romney be expected to remember all those 'nobodies' he was forced to endure in his youth?
How can he be expected to remember an incident that never happened?
Therefore - why did he apologize?
I have been falsely accused. I would never own something that I did not recall.
Well, duh, have you even considered the idea that it might not have happened at all?
No, I suppose not.
Immie
Well, no, actually, never considered that at all, because
1) Five people described the incident.
2) Romney hasn't outright denied it, just claiming he "doesn't remember".
3) Frankly, it kind of fits his personality. The guy is inherently a bully.

His apology:
"I've seen the reports, not going to argue about that; I did some stupid things in high school. If I hurt anyone I would be very sorry for it and apologize for it."
He did a lot of things in school. Chances are some of them went too far. Easy to acknowledge.

1) Um, yeah, actually I did. DOn't mistake me for a kneejerk leftists, I've gotten into battle royals with the resident liberals because I think the SwiftVets were right on the money about what they were upset about.
2) Not an "Obama=bot", guy. I voted for Santorum in the primary and I voted for every GOP candidate back to Reagan in 1980. My complaint is with Romney because I think he's a horrible human being. And not surprisingly, we have a story of him acting like a horrible human being. Beating up gay kids and playing pranks on sight-impared teachers.
3) Again, I think things he did later in life, like looting AmPad to make a quick buck, were a lot worse than the pranks he played on people when he was a High-School kid. But it says a lot about his personality, doesn't it.

He did not apologize for the incident in question.[Romney]apologized for pranks he helped orchestrate that he said might have gone too far.
I definitely disagree with your statement about Obama being a boy coward over that story. He was a middle school boy who didn't like being teased by his friends about the girl that was chasing him around the playground. His friends were teasing him and he proved them wrong.
Don't even try to tell me something like that didn't happen in your life!
I would not be surprised if she wasn't his "first kiss" later when things were quiet.
As for kids rejecting homosexuals, most teen-aged boys (when I was that age) were scared to death of being considered "gay". Those who weren't man enough to suck that up, had to prove to themselves and everyone else that they weren't gay by beating up the kid that everyone thought was gay. I wouldn't call that "manly".

really? no one i would associate with would have bullied someone in school. it's a character thing.
