Washington Post's Romney "Bully" story implodes.

Post by _bcspace »

The original copy:

“I always enjoyed his pranks,” said Stu White, a popular friend of Romney’s who went on to a career as a public school teacher and has long been bothered by the Lauber incident. "But I was not the brunt of any of his pranks."

The changed copy, my emphasis:

“I always enjoyed his pranks,” said Stu White, a popular friend of Romney’s who went on to a career as a public school teacher and said he has been "disturbed" by the Lauber incident since hearing about it several weeks ago, before being contacted by the Washington Post. "But I was not the brunt of any of his pranks."

Just as I predicted. Democrats and other Liberals are willing to lie and change the truth, reap the benefits, and apologize later. Only in this case, unlike the doctored Zimmerman 911 call, there is no apology forthcoming.

by the way, shouldn't DarkHelmet's Romney bully thread also be moved to off topic as mine was?

Romney didn't deny it and apologized for it and any other "pranks" he did during his younger days.

Actually, he said he couldn't remember this happening.
