Bouncy with a back-peddle

Cute. Tells a bouncy, then a disclaimer.
Primitives eat it up as fact.

My father had a run-in with Mitt Romney years ago.
Here in Michigan. This would have been sometime back in the mid-60's, probably 1965, when George Romney was Governor. He started the story with, "you know, Mitt Romney almost didn't live to see this day..."

My father at the time worked for the road commission. One day his supervisor had to drop off something at the Romney home. He took my father and another coworker along in a county truck. They pulled up to the front of the house, the supervisor dropped whatever it was off (possibly survey data), and they began to drive away. Mitt Romney then came flying up in his own car, jumps out and begins yelling at them. You see, it seems that dear Mitt didn't take too kindly to lowly county workers parking their truck in his driveway and gracing his front door like they were people who mattered. Apparently it would "look bad" for people such as themselves to be seen in front of his house. I believe an entrance for servants was mentioned.

In any case, my father's supervisor was so insulted and pissed that he wanted to kill Romney. My father and coworker held him back because they were afraid he might do just that. Ya, right. BS flag.

Since so much of the DNC focus was about character, I figured I'd share with you something I learned about Romney's. There's no way of proving this story, of course, but I've no reason to doubt my father. And Romney certainly has done nothing otherwise to prove he respects working class Americans.
If there's no way to factually verify, why tell it?
Oh, that's right, DUmmies believe everything they read in the DUmp.

Example one.

Yeah, well, my wive's hairdresser's sister was in Indonesia in the late 60s-early 70s and watched a young Barry Sotero steal everyone's homework and claim them as his. Then when the head of the Madrassa told him half of the homework was wrong Barry said those papers were not his. Only the ones that were correct were his.  When the Madrassa head showed him that one of the wrong assignments had his name and his handwriting on it, he claimed that some fellow named George handed that in and forged his name.

Now I can't confirm this but it totally fits in with the way Obama has dealt with his career in politics.

Mitt Romney was at Stanford in 1965, followed by a 2-1/2 year church mission to France.

Anything earlier, and he would have been in high school.

There's no way of proving this story

This is the first time that I recall a Bouncy fabricator essentially announcing in the story that it's made up.
“Don’t vote for the person who tells you you deserve something. Just don’t do it if it’s something other than life, liberty, or the pursuit of possible happiness. If everyone is telling you you deserve something, vote for the one who is promising you the least. Be suspicious of the man or woman who tell you deserve everything. Because you don’t.” ---Mike Rowe

Well, rats, I thought I might've had the primitive.

I thought George Romney was elected governor of Michigan in 1966--the primitive says it happened when he was governor--but apparently he was re-elected in 1966, having first been elected in 1962.

Damn.

The thing is that DUmmies love that word and if they thought they could get away with it, half of DU would be nothing but an endless series of n-word posts.  They know they can't get away with it in polite society, but sometimes they slip up, which happened when Mia Love got inside their little heads and they had to take their rage out on her Wikipedia page.

A bunch of union thugs show up, dump something on the lawn and young Mitt asks them what the heck they are doing. The most violent union thug, jealous of young Mitt's luck at being born to an industrious father wants to kill him. I can believe that.

Then years later, this DUmmie's dad fabricates a story out of it. Like all DUmmies, they lie, fabricate, and dream up the most preposterous things.

My uncle had a friend whose brother's third cousin (by marriage) had a step-sister whose proctologist went to elementary school with Barry in Hawaii. When they were 5, they had to build a building with blocks in ome hour. Well, this proctologist ( we'll call him George) built a great tower, structurly sound, while young Barry kept giving other kids' blocks to the kids too poor to go to school.

Anyway, after an hour, Barry looked at these blocks he took and hadn't given to other kids in a garbled mess. The teacher passed by, and gave him an incomplete, because that's what young Barry said he deserved, and that if he had another hour, he could do more.

The teacher patted him on the head, amd went over to George's blocks. She praised him, and gave him an "A" for the great work.

Enraged, Barry kicked over George's building, constantly yelling "YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT!!!"

I know this is just an internet story, but I actually truly believe it's true.

I think they believe them because they are fairy tales.  Something tells me this was in a movie I saw about a year ago.  It sounds very familiar.  Something about rival tobacco planting families or something.

Why would a road crew supervisor have access to the governor's home for any reason?

They are SO far removed from county government, and a road crew supervisor?  For real?

Did the supervisor get brain cancer and die because he was so mad at Romney? That would be a great commercial. Talk to David Brooks...he'd be happy to do it.
