Former intern catches Romney in lie.

[RandySF]

NASHUA, N.H. -- A former intern to Mitt Romney publicly stated on Monday that as a candidate for governor in 2002, the Massachusetts Republican did authorize and disseminate fliers championing equal rights for gay citizens.

The statement, made by the Manhattan Institute's Josh Barro to Buzzfeed, directly contradicts what Romney's top spokesman Eric Ferhnstrom told the Huffington Post on Sunday. Barro, who served as an intern on that campaign, explained that on Pride weekend in 2002, the campaign sent about a half-dozen interns to a "post-parade festival on Boston Common" to hand out flyers proclaiming that "all citizens deserve equal rights, regardless of their sexual preference."

"The thing was organized by a full-time staffer," Barro added.

Ferhnstrom, who served as communications director on that same campaign, told the Huffington Post on Sunday that the Romney's election team had no involvement in producing or handing out the flyers and that the former Massachusetts governor shouldn't be held to account for them.

1. big deal

the real challenge is to catch Romney telling the truth

[Pirate Smile]

2. Romney lies constantly...all the time...even when not necessary...just assume he's lying.

I truly find it staggering what a congenital liar he has shown himself to be ... repeatedly.

3. And he's not finished yet!

Wait until the GE...he'll tack back to the left and argue that he's more liberal than Barack...just like he did in the '94 election with Ted Kennedy. It's a sight to behold. Romney is a man of principal.

4. right -- he's a man of principal, not a man of principle!
