School records (known ONLY jokingly as "your 'permanent' record") are the new birth certificate.

How come the sadistic, cowardly, bullying crap Romney did in high school is dismissed as stuff that happened when Romney was young, and Romney's recent tax records are something "you people" have no need to see, but Obama's school records are considered vital information voters need?


Here's the thing: we don't need to see anything further from Obama to help us guess what kind of President he'll make because we don't have to guess. We KNOW what kind of President Obama will make because he's been President for four years, and some of toughest four years, too.

And, school records aside (which sane person gives a shit about a fifty-one year old Presient's school transcripts, ffs?), we know about all people can get to know about a President because Obama was in public life most of his career and his record has been dissected for years, including by Obama himself, and including in two books he wrote. And then the dissections were dissected. And so on.

However, Romney's conduct, apart from all the lies he told when running against Kennedy and while running for Governor, is far from an open book. So, let's the tax returns and stop making me laugh about high school and college records, willya. My sides are hurting.


Meanwhile, I do want to see poor Seamus's death certificate! (Mitt gave his kids's pet away to a family member and poor Seamus went on to that big car roof in the sky.)

I guess nothing about Seamus tells us anything about the Romneys' character, either (yes, plural. I went there.)

1. To answer that question, i't's because they're racists, that's why it matters regarding Obama.

they hate the man... wish we could understand all the shouts from the nuts at the Mittens VP nominee announcement party. I'm sure they said some doozies when it comes to hatefulness.

2. I thought it was because they were stupid and/or hypocritical, but I am willing to be wrong.

I honestly don't know whether or not today's Republicans these days would go any easier on a white Democrat (either gender) running for POTUS.

They seem equal opportunity with things like double standards, false equivalencies and overall asshattery.
