Romney Even Flips On His Own Dad
Posted by Mike Gehrke on December 20, 2007 at 11:23 AM
Mitt didn’t actually mean his father marched with MLK, when he said that remembered seeing it.
On Wednesday, Romney's campaign said his recollections of watching his father, an ardent civil rights supporter, march with King were meant to be figurative.
"He was speaking figuratively, not literally," Eric Fehrnstrom, spokesman for the Romney campaign, said of the candidate.
This comes only after multiple newspapers challenged the accuracy of the claim, when there was "no record of King marching in Grosse Pointe in 1963 or of then-Gov. Romney taking part in King's historic march down Woodward Avenue in June of that year."

The Republicans act like this is no big deal. Lying to them is just a mis spoken or a figurativly expression. I hope the Republicans or reaveled for what they stand for. Lie, cheat,steal or what ever it takes to win. The people will surely stop overlooking these type of mistakes. I see a bright future for the Democrats
All Democrats have a big heart, some a biger heart than others. But to be a Democrat you have to be concerned for others less fortunate. Read our platform and you will see Democrats have always been for the working class, the poor, and the discouraged. But the Democrats have the big corporations thriving also. Democrats can create more jobs by the big corporations and the small employer, without trying than Republicans can when it is an extreme case of need. Happy Holidays

We may never know what Mr. Romney actually meant. Either way, can anyone bank on Mr. Romney's fantasy?

Maybe he "figuratively" marched with MLK because Mormons did not recognize African-Americans until recently?
Good thing we have him on record saying he's anti-choice.
All the Republicans are toast because they all want to bring "big government" in our doctor's offices and bedrooms. BIG hypocrites!
