I went to Catholic boarding school and there was so much that the nuns could scold and punish you for that most of us pretty much adopted the attitude, first don't get caught and second, if you do get caught, lie about it. It was basic survival.

Children tend to mimic their parents' behavior.

for kids to admit publicly that they lied continually And the fact that they have no shame to admit they big liars?

wtf kind of shit is that.

and I bet Dad is all proud of his litter for that too.

That really strikes me as super creepy.
One of the very basic things parents do for kids is tell them how lies are bad and can come back to hurt you or hurt someone else unintentionally. Most kids do fib, but there is a line and these little freaks sound like they are way over.

always promoted telling the truth. Pres Obama obviously was taught the same.

Isn't there something in the Bible about that? Freaking hypocrites.

I keep thinking.. "If the lord is so damn great why do they have to lie?"

It makes no sense except in romney's fucked up world.

their vicious father.

Lying is a continuous and common theme in virtually every Mormon household.

This is not a religion deeply rooted in honesty or compassion.

.

And I expect every single LDS missionaries sentenced to a long term in jail for harassment, lying to federal officials and perjury.

If you have been a parent, you know that kids lie to their parents. Especially in their teen years when they are trying to be independent from them. It isn't a new revelation. Don't make such a big deal out of this.

learned it from him. IMO sociopathy seems to be more prevalent in the privileged. This isnt the same a lying about smoking or throwing water balloons. If your children lie a lot, something is wrong.

Shame.

These grown sons are very active in the campaign. They're the faces in front of the crowds, lying to them, and then introducing their lying father. Nobody is attacking the grandchildren. THAT would be petty. This is about the grown men who are working for their father's campaign and attacking others with lies, including the President today.

Petty? Not even close.

It is their "service" in lieu of military service!

And not whether they lied to their dad when they were 9.

If you can't see the difference then I can't help you. This is shit we wouldn't stand for from the right. Let's not be hypocrites.

And I definitely don't need your help.

Enjoy your rice cakes, sir

to help their flip-flopping empty shell of a father become President, it's already a big deal. These aren't Lyin's little kids we're talking about here. These are adult men with families of their own, deliberately lying to the public and helping their father try to screw this country and the rest of the world. When one of his sons stands up in front of a crowd today and calls out the President as if he's a lying, disobedient child, it's a big deal.

Don't like it? Too bad. I don't like lying liars that lie.

I did not lie to my parents and my children did not lie to me... when people (even parents and children) treat each other with respect and communicate appropriately, people don't need to lie to each other...

Don't you think that's just a little fucked up? They're promoting their family based on being liars. They're selling themselves to the American people and asking for out votes by telling us they're liars. Then Ann comes out and attacks Obama for accusing Mitt of lying.

Fucked up.

?

Anyone else here this?

Projecting, for sure.

accomplishment to brag about. Those boys are freeloaders with investments and help from their dad to have businesses rather than loaf around which is probably what they'd prefer to do. I can't imagine bragging on a campaign trail about lying to your dad all the time. Nothing to be proud of and it shows that they are not good examples for young people to follow.

a link to this. I'd like to blog it around but need a link.

snicker.

It's an family joke but guess what? It's a ROMNEY family joke or a MORMON joke - Americans are not the Romney's and the majority of us are NOT Romney Mormons. So this is an inside joke AND it is ON us.

Lying son admits that Mitt learned not to believe the lies but the American people voting for Romney are left out of the joke so the joke is actually ON US.

Nice tell there you little shit.

At least that's what my always-reading-between-the-lines self is picking up here.

Mitts dad Never fought in any war....
Mitt Never fought in any war...
Mitts kids NEVER fought in any war...

Watch Mitts foreign policy speech today...we will be in a war on Nonember 7th...and your kid s will be fighting it not his...

he is a scumbag

is that they actively supported the wars... but refused to fight them... I can respect people who protest wars and choose not to be part of them... but people who support military engagement but will not be part of it make me livid!!

.

is they seem like they are proud of their lying.
