I had a brief exchange on Facebook with an old wingnut friend. He put up a post complaining about the “leftist media” was bringing up this old story and how it’s so long ago it doesn’t matter. I pointed out that while the story is old, Romney’s present day response demonstrated a seriously flawed character. I then asked him if he ever assaulted and bullied someone like this when he was younger. He said, “No.” I asked him, “How do you know you didn’t? Maybe you just forgot?” He stopped responding. I suspect it’s because the only response to that question is, “It is not the sort of thing you forget.”
