"I happened to come across this book about Mitt’s father George Romney online. “The Romney Riddle” by Gerald O. Plas. I was looking for some context about the sort of household that Mitt grew up in to see if there would be something that pointed toward or away from the bullying behavior that Mitt the high school senior allegedly exhibited at his elite high school.

What I found was that Mitt’s father George was an absolute political animal who would say anything to anyone as long as it advanced his own political career. I should be the first to point out that sons don’t always embrace the politics of their father, but this is about more than just politics. It is about integrity, manipulating others, demonizing political opponents and doing anything at all to get your way. This is the man who served as the role model for young Mitt Romney.

It paints a very disturbing picture of a politician who can best be described as a dishonest bully hell-bent for political glory. here are some snips.."
