Title: The bullying will not stop
Post by: SSG Snuggle Bunny on May 11, 2012, 07:56:19 AM
Let's face it: life in America today is ugly and when people see someone they don't like they lash out in petulant anger and frustration.

Of course I mean the biggest bullies of all: liberals, who can't take an honest criticism on economic policy without turning it into a frothing screed about racism, classism, sexism or whatever in an effort to bully others into silence.

Now the family of John Lauber, the man suppsedly bullied by Rmoney into an early grave are speaking out:

Quote
Quote
Betsy Lauber, one of John Lauber’s three sisters, spoke with ABC News Tuesday night regarding the accuracy of the story.
“The family of John Lauber is releasing a statement saying the portrayal of John is factually incorrect and we are aggrieved that he would be used to further a political agenda. There will be no more comments from the family,” she said.

Christine Lauber echoed her sister:

Quote
She added she and her sisters will likely put out a statement later via a family attorney.
“If he were still alive today, he would be furious [about the story],” she said with tears in her eyes.

ABC notes that both sisters were quoted in the WaPo article.  It seems that they were unaware of the real subject matter, or at least the way the Post intended to use their recollections of their brother.  It might be interesting to see what else an attorney might have to say about the matter.

How long until DU picks up on this and then starts lashing out at the sisters calling them, at best, bought-off or, at worse, something much worse?

These women will be vilified for ruining the left's much needed narrative. The fact that the left even went to this absurd length proves the level of their desperation. Now these women presume to rob them of what few meager scraps they have left.

They will be furious.

Keep watching and post the threads here.

They will be ignored, and anyone foolish enough to make a reference to them in another thread, will be vilified.
Any DUmpmonkey that starts a thread about the sisters, will also be called out and bullied into submission.
Nads will also make an appearance.

 How much were the Laubers offered to
throw water on the Rmoney story?
Do they know what happened that day since only John was at the school that day.
A family member of the classmate whom Mitt Romney allegedly bullied in high school says she has no knowledge of the incident, according to news reports.

Christine Lauber, the older sister of former Romney classmate John Lauber, has told ABC News she was at college when the incident allegedly occurred while her brother, John, and Romney attended high school at the Cranbrook School, in Bloomfield, Mich.

No knowledge usually means I don't know so why is M$Greedia suggesting otherwise

2. Murdoch working his magic.

The sisters said their brother probably wouldn't have told them if he had been attacked.

Remember, the editor decides not only what is news, but what parts of the "news" to leave in and what parts to leave out.

For instance: Mittler got to graduate from Cranbrook, even though he physically assaulted and battered a younger student.
The victim, however, never got that opportunity. Lauber was expelled from the elite school for smoking a cigarette.
Thus, the integrity of the illusion of class hypocrisy is maintained.

If that doesn't work, the pressure of being exposed for whatever is in the sisters' background makes for a handy silencer.
You were right, Bun.
They decided to trash the family.

So predictable and pathetic. Truth is a conspiracy against the liberal agenda just as it has always been.

4. What a stupid waste of pixels this story is

Somebody who wasn't there and says she probably wouldn't have been told anyway didn't know about it.

You mean like the idiot that started the story?

I wonder if he's a more of a patsy than an idiot.

*phone rings*

Stu White: Hello?

WaPo: Mr. White. You attended high school with Mitt Romney, correct?

SW: Yes.

WaPo: How would you feel if you learned Mr. Romney had bullied a classmate that by cutting off his hair and now the victim is dead?

SW: Oh my! I'd feel horrible about that!

The DU left the part out of the story where the Family said they didn't appreciate being used for Political purposes.

If I was the family, I would be suing. This is nothing but a made up story from the left to try and discredit Mitt. Once again they are trying to distract people from Obama's record. I wonder why they aren't bringing up Obama's past? Oh right, he's a liberal, so he gets a free pass.

I think that is the reason they did this. Because they know he can't speak out. It is all a ruse to take focus off of Obama's record.

Heck, a liberal buddy of mine the other day said that this race isn't about Obama's record. Then what the freak is it about? What a bunch of morons.

I'm about as level headed a guy as there is but this shit is beginning to make the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

This is only the beginning of the propaganda war against anyone standing up to dear leader 0bama. I remember a letter that a guy wrote against 0bama in 08 and it ended that of the things he was most scared of in an 0bama fascist regime was the fact that he would be frightened to write that same letter in four years and he was, sadly, correct.
