Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
I guess we can mark this as the official beginning of the fall campaign. The liberal media are excited about a trivial incident that happened decades ago in some fancypants private boys school.
I agree that it was not nice and reflects poorly on him. How has his life been since then? He raised a family, was a faithful husband and father, was a dutiful member of his church, rescued the Olympic Games, ran a highly successful business, was a reform governor in one of our worst governed states and now is running for president.
I contrast all that with the media's treatment fo Obama. They have displayed zero interest in his upbringing as a muslim, whether he is or was a citizen of Indonesia, his mentoring by communists, how he got into columbia and Harvard Law, how he got on the law Review, how he became president of the Review without producing any scholarly work, how he got a prestigious job at University of Chicago Law without ever writing any scholarly articles or having a judicial clerkship, who actually wrote his bestselling books, his association with mobster Tony Resko, his association with black liberationist preacher jeremiah Wright, his association with admitted domestic terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn, how dirty laundry from not one but two sealed divorce cases of opponents were leaked during his Senate campaign, etc etc etc.
I contrast Romney's record of accomplishment with Obama's one page resume: he got a make work job at the University of Chicago where he was held to far lower standards than any other faculty member, he was an organizer for ACORN, he was a local pol, he ran errands for mobster Tony Resko, somehow he got elected to the Senate, then immediately ran for president.
Not that there is a double standard or anything.
