In reply to the discussion: I'm so tired of seeing that Romney's behavior was acceptable back then. [View all]SemperEadem
(8,053 posts)33. count on nitt to take a pass on that
even though he flip flops with the direction of the wind, don't count on him being so self-aware and empathetic that he would look into his own soul and see the drain that has emptied all honor and right-thinking from it.
he will double down in his "hey, sorry if you are offended by it" because he doesn't view gay men as being equal in humanity to him, even though he has none. He is throwing in with the mindset of those in this country who have no problem stripping rights away from citizens based on something that is none of their business in the first place.

I can't see anyone but a bully saying that kind of behavior was ever acceptable.
