WOW nice kid you raised Romney http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/10/17/1146174/-WHOA-Tagg-Romney-says-he-wanted-to-take-a-swing-at-President-Obama

(20,998 posts)...would have to admit his father is full of crap.
Tagg Rmoney is also inflicted with Ann's disease. No, not MS. He's inflicted with the "I'm-better-than-you" syndrome and has visions of aristocracy dancing through his head.
And if you look closely, you'll see the dollar signs in his eyes.
This election needs to be over, and this family needs to fade into obscurity before they do some real damage to humanity -- damage other than what Mitt's carnivore capitalism has already done.
Cha
(297,275 posts)they are the demon family from hell. And, I can't wait for them to be gone from our discussions, either, Raster!
Raster
(20,998 posts)....companies, which is the nice way of saying he finds his victim, moves in and buys them, loads them with debt, takes his profits and then lets the employees twist in the wind while the company slowly dies an agonizing death.

Like Beau Biden, who actually did go to Afghanistan.
And who the hell names their kid Tagg??

(15,238 posts)The President has some really impressive body guards hired by the same people who guard his Father. Even the Secret Service who guards his Father have a first priority other than his Father. On the other hand having a name like Tag could be the source of some issues.

(99,710 posts)The notion that a prep school product who has probably never been in a real fight in his life is going to "take a swing" at anybody is simply preposterous.

(801 posts)It needs to be tweeted and spread around every way possible. It does NOT set a good example for young people especially who need to learn to settle differences and express them non-violently. This means WORDS too!

(4,551 posts)Maybe Obama himself can't criticize them, and has to stay above the fray, but I think it's time for the Obama surrogates and others in the media to begin denouncing the Romney family as unfit to be the First Family.
iwillalwayswonderwhy
(2,602 posts)Is that Tag says he didn't do it because of the Secret Service guards, not because violence is the wrong approach. He could have said, "I felt like taking a swing, but that would be the wrong thing to do". He didn't.
gordianot
(15,238 posts)He insists on no special favors and sometimes wears a mouth guard. Not bad for a 50 year old man. There was a report on this a couple weeks ago on NPR. Although he is a very controlled person President Obama seems to find an outlet participating in contact sports. It would be the wrong thing for Tag to do more ways than one.
Firebirds01
(576 posts)had a black son and he said he wanted to take a swing at McCain or Bush after the debate. Can you imagine what Fox, et al would say?
yortsed snacilbuper
(7,939 posts)they both are very violent and shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the President of the USA!
Tag is a spoiled rotten punk, Obama would of cleaned his clock if had taken a swing at him. On most occassions, Republicans like to make threats, but in reality they usually fail to follow through on them because they are cowards. Most Republicans have never truly been in the streets to know just how tough the world can be, as many live in gated communities and have never had to scrape the bottom like many of us. I may be insane, but I tell you what, my money would be on Obama against any of the Romney clan in a fist fight. Hell, I think I would even take Koe Biden against Ryan, Biden reminds me of my grandfather who was a steel worker, one tough S.O.B.

When stuff like this happens, I always reverse the players to make sure I'm not judging someone's actions based solely on my dislike/hate of the person involved. (I'm a Libra so I can't help it. )
