Tagg Romney Says He Wants To ‘Take A Swing’ At Obama

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

Source: Think Progress


Appearing on the Bill Lumaye Show, a North Carolina radio program, Tagg Romney — one of Mitt Romney’s five sons — said that he wanted to rush the stage and “take a swing” at President Obama during the debates.

Transcript:

BILL LUMAYE: I’m going to ask something I think a lot of people want to know, or at least I do. What is it like for you to hear the President of the United States call your dad a liar. How do you react to that?

TAGG ROMNEY: Jump out of your seat and you want to rush down to the debate stage and take a swing at him. But you know you can’t do that because… Well, first there is a lot of Secret Service between you and him but also because this is the nature of the process.

Disgusting family with nothing but contempt for the office of the president.

[Raster]

1. well, tagg, what can I say? have you actually listened to you dad?

sorry dude, your dad IS A LIAR!

[Liberalagogo]

37. But ya are....

[marble falls]

2. Let alone the fact is Daddy is a big fat liar.

[DavidDvorkin]

3. If those Secret Service guys hadn't been in the way

I'd a done this and I'd a done that!

[brush]

84. Sure you would have

Yeah right. Just like you and your four brothers and your father would have served in the military if you weren't . . . ahhhh, what's the word . . . starts with the letters c-o-w_ _ _?

[DavidDvorkin]

99. Cowtipping

It's very time consuming. Why, it can occupy all the years during which one is of an appropriate age to wear a military uniform.

[brush]

103. Good one

Hee hee! Very funny, DavidDvorkin.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

153. If those Secret Service guys hadn't been in the way ...

... Obama would have decked him.

Barack probably takes harder hits during one of his basketball games.

[tarheelsunc]

4. Because he exposed your dad for the complete fool that he is?

[Divernan]

14. You had a typo. I think you meant complete TOOL, right?

[tarheelsunc]

40. Well, that too

[Saviolo]

154. Nono, y'see

... tools are useful.

[ejbr]

5. Tagg, your father is a LIAR

come after me, you prick.

[smirkymonkey]

6. Stay Classy, Tagg.

A total piece of shit, just like his parents. I guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

[luvspeas]

7. Disrespectful pig...

that's our President. You can tell these people have absolutely no respect for the office or this country. Blind hatred that only comes from Racism.

[goclark]

128. Not just racism ~they treated

Gore, Clinton, Kennedy's , Carter, Dean etc the same way or worse.....I happen to be African American and none of those listed are African American.

The difference is they didn't give the above names "racial" names to my knowledge.

Question: Didn't they accuse a White candidate of having a Black Child?"

Their anger and dirty tricks and "Supprssion of the Votes" had many of the same features.

Another thing that makes it easier to identify now is that we have Facebook and google and videos that instantly allows everyone to find out what is being said and done . Ex. - Romney's 47% video was on the web.

For sure anyone of any color is not regarded as important if they are in the 47% .You don't have to be Africa Amerian to be in that 47%. ....Those on Food Stamps......
According to the United States Department of Agriculture 2010, out of 100% of recipients (not population, but recipients):

35% are White
22% are African American
10% are Hispanic
2% are Asian
4% are Native American
19% are Unknown



Sad situation
However ~ Obama was able to become President with people of all
colors voting him in.
We can do it again ~ Fired Up! Ready to GO!

[The_Counsel]

137. ^^^ This. This Right Here.

Blizzam.

[Swede Atlanta]

150. Remember the Mormons consider (not past tense) blacks inferior to whites....

The Mormon church is a CULT and a big business. It is not actually a religion, in my view.

The Mormons made several attempts to join the Union and were thwarted for various reasons including polygamy. The church president had to have an epiphany and formally reject polygamy as a tenet of church doctrine before Utah was admitted into the Union.

After the success of the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s and early to mid 1970's, again the head of the Mormon church had an epiphany that blacks (men only need apply) could be accepted into the priesthood.

Time and time again the "church" has had a communication from God, at the appropriate time, to advance their interests.

The Mormon Church is a huge business. Their tithing requirements give them not only significant income but often members contribute interests in land, businesses, etc. that are now managed in Salt Lake City by church managers.

I have attended many services in Mormon "stake houses". I am struck by the total lack of a sense of "spirituality". These are often drawn-out services that rarely invoke the name of God, or Jesus.

Don't get me wrong....there are many things, taken objectively, are positive. They do support the idea of families and families spending time together. They do care for their own. But all of this comes at a price - total submission to the authority of the church fathers.

Aside from the Catholic Church that used to excommunicate (or burn) you for so-called "heretical" beliefs, the Mormon Church comes a close second. Gay? Not celibate? Excommunicated. Woman? Not subservient to your husband? Excommunicated.

Lastly I have to say that their pro-creation ideology is perhaps the most immoral on this planet. They encourage, in fact require, "good" Mormons to have at least 6 children. Our planet cannot sustain that kind of population growth. I am assuming the early Mormon church fathers created this to encourage the growth of the population so that they could rise to be "counted". But today this policy results in some cases in poverty because these families birth more children than they can afford and contributes to the over-population of this country and the world. I consider this policy alone one of the most heinous.

[DhhD]

160. Anybody know what the poverty rate is in Utah? What kind of State and Federal aid it receives?

[Do it Right]

165. It isn't just the Mormans that are cults...

I've been trying to tell people that the WHOLE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS BECOME "THE CULT PARTY"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PASS IT ON. LET THE MEDIA KNOW WHO THEY HAVE BECOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jtuck004]

8. You aren't used to it by now? Being around people who really don't think daddy, or you, add

anything to the world?

Get used to it...

[Kingofalldems]

9. What branch of service was Tagg in?

[calimary]

117. Yeah, no kidding. Lazy coddled entitled moocher!

[chuckstevens]

10. What a Loser!

Really Tagg? Take a swing at the president of the United States? These people really think they are royalty. I can't wait to see them conceding to President Obama.

[llmart]

198. What the hell is with these goofy ass names anyway?

Tagg or Tig or whatever the hell Palin's kid's name was.

[daleo]

11. This lad should show more class

He comes off poorly saying this.

[Ineeda]

57. He's no "lad."

He's a 42 year old father of SIX. This is no boyish machismo. He's evidently as much of an ass and bully as his father. Disgusting.

[daleo]

78. The picture made him look younger

It's quite inexcusable for someone in his forties, especially given the political violence that presidents have suffered. Loose talk encourages crazies.

[spiderpig]

81. First thing I did was check this creep's age

If he were 6, we could shrug it off. But at 42??? If any of us called the White House during Bunnypants' administration and said that, we'd be getting a visit from Agent Mike.

And I'm supposed to model my family's values on this?

[goclark]

131. He needs a litte talking to from the Secret Service

and it really shows tha he has no home training.

When I was 40 years young, my parets would still correct me if I dared to say such a thing!

[Cobalt-60]

205. My money is on a first round KO by Obama

I can't believe this Romney punk has ever even seen a stand up fight.

[sarge43]

147. "Youthful indiscretion" It worked for another Repug ... well, kinda. n/t

[TicketyBoo]

188. And, guess what?

"He's a 42 year old father of SIX."

The last two are twins born of a surrogate mother!

http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Elections/President/2012/1018/Mitt-Romney-s-five-sons-What-s-their-role-in-the-campaign/Tagg-Romney

Wonder what happened to the extra embryos … er … "persons"?

[dangerdoll]

197. I did NOT know that!

THANK YOU! Holy shit!

That's unnatural, right there! What happened to God's Will? And what DID they do with the other fertilized embryos...uh...I mean Gerber Babies Who Might Have Cured Cancer?

[kardonb]

109. his lad....

class ? From a Romney ? You're kidding me , right ?

[hrmjustin]

12. Mormon family values?

[dchill]

122. Deep subject.

[obxhead]

194. Moron family values.

This is a family of privilege and hate that happens to be a member of one of the many cult options available.

He didn't say this because he's a Mormon, he said it because he was raised by a privileged asshole.

[virgogal]

13. Contempt for the office of the president was rampant during the Bush years. It's

sad that politics in the U.S.A. has come to this.

[truebluegreen]

38. "Contempt for the President was rampant during the Bush years."

fixed it for ya

[Cha]

48. Thanks for fixing that, truebluegreen.. nm

[truebluegreen]

90. No problem. ;-D nt

[chollybocker]

60. Fixed it good.

Real good.

[griloco]

94. except bush never won a presidential election

and I think he was from Chichi Jima (it's near Iwo)

[Cha]

97. Zactly! He wasn't even president..and people had contempt for him. nm

[maddiemom]

105. So true. Thanks!

[WinstonSmith4740]

43. I don't think it was contempt for the office.

I think a vast majority of the contempt was for Bush himself, as a politician and a person.

[2ndAmForComputers]

71. You know, each time I read some "both sides are the same" bullcrap it pisses me off more and more.

But not enough that I would want to "take a swing" at somebody, of course. I'm not a right-winger.

[spooky3]

162. What you saw was contempt for GW Bush's *behavior* and that of his cronies

I fail to see what Obama has *done* that deserves contempt.

[Cooley Hurd]

170. Contempt for the man was rampant. Contempt for the office?? No contest between then and now...

With the exception of a few provoking trolls, NO ONE on DU ever threatened to kick Shrub's ass. If they did, mods nuked them. Nor, did ANY Democrat stand up in the middle of ANY of Shrub's SOTU speeches and yelled "YOU LIE".


On edit: Nor, did any Dem Governor start screaming at Bush on the airport tarmac - although Kathleen Blanco certainly had a big reason to...

[speedoo]

15. Tagg, he would kick your ass, and he would not need any help.

Fact is, he would kick your ass, your scumbag father's ass and the asses of your brothers.

Asshole.

[Cha]

74. I like your style, speedoo! nm

[brush]

104. Done one already

He already kicked one Romney ass last night. Guess the others can get in line.

[HenryWallace]

151. What he meant to say.......

Is that he would order his Butler to "take a swing" at the President!

[Cooley Hurd]

171. Yep!! One thing about our present POTUS - he's a fighter...

...and I'd bet he's been in a scrap (since he wasn't born rich) or two in his day. That's one of the beauties of public schools - you learn how to defend yourself. Private/Prep schools, you learn how to pay someone to fight your battles for you.

[pinto]

16. Classy...

Fail.

[t16hilos]

17. Yep, the truth hurts n/t

[Qutzupalotl]

18. Typical bully response.

Tagg, you could stand to learn from the ACLU: the best response to speech you don't like is more speech.

[pangaia]

19. "Tagg?" That sounds a dumb as MITT

What is with this ugly, filthy family?
Oh Tagg.by the way.. are you also going to 'take a swing' at Crowley? She called your lying father a liar also. She'd probably beat you to a pulp.
You wanna come take a swing at me, smarty pants? I'll break your f*ckin' legs.

There, now I feel better. Tigers/Tanks called. Cards/Giants still in rain delay..

[mimi85]

29. Tagg?

Are the Rmoneys related to the Palins? What a wimp! Why isn't he in Afghanistan - oh yeah, missionary crap.

[maddiemom]

106. Their nicknames are so 1% cute! What, no Biffs? No girls so no Muffies or

Buffies.

[dchill]

123. No - just Sadd...

Madd and Miff.

[sendero]

126. Really..

... Tagg, as in Price Tagg.

[juajen]

152. I now call the Governor "Mittsey". I thought this was an appropriate name in keeping with the

nickname culture.

[sweettater]

174. You funnnnnnnnnny!

Mascara running down my made up face. Thanks!

[amuse bouche]

20. Awww ya mad bro?

And your daddy is a liar in 1001 ways. You can't be that blind

[Beaverhausen]

21. How did he feel when his dad called him and his brothers liars?

Did he want to hit his dad, too?

[hoosierlib]

22. Shocker...

Only further proof that douchebagginess is a genetic trait...

[ClusterFreak]

23. Would love to see S.S. pay a little visit to Tagg and ask him just what he meant by that.

Yeah it was an idle threat made by a pseudo tough guy. But he made it nonetheless. Maybe they could just pull a guy off his dad's detail and get him to sit Tagg down and explain the facts of life to him.

[We People]

66. If Tagg had been an ordinary citizen during Bush II and made that statement

he would have been tazed and slapped into jail in a skinny minute - and possibly worse.

I remember when an airline passenger was taken off a plane (and maybe arrested - can't remember) at the start of the Iraq invasion just for wearing an anti-Bush t-shirt.

Then again, he was merely one of the unwashed masses.

[CoffeeCat]

24. Clearly, the Romney family has some deep anger issues...

I don't blame you Tagg. I can only image what growing up with Mittens for a father was like. All of the interrupting, the bullying, all of the pain associated with having your boyhood pets strapped to your family cars.

Seriously, can you imagine how much rage those boys are collectively repressing?

[maddiemom]

107. Was Tagg the one who got his face smashed into his food? Probably not.

[central scrutinizer]

25. Obama to Tagg, "Please, proceed."

and then Obama opens the big ol' can of whoop-ass!

[Squinch]

26. Comment from reader below the story: "I thought violent people weren't supposed to come from two

parent households."

Priceless.

I'm not on facebook, so can't log into the site to "like" her, but the poster is Melissa Leaman.

[Tutonic]

28. Ann, Mitt and the boys

Seven Psychos.

[Monk06]

30. Barak grew up a black kid in Indonesia and Hawaii. He could punch Tagg into the next century.

Stupid pissant, son of a pissant.

[TBF]

157. That's what I was picturing too -

I'd love to see Tagg try to punch the president. I have a feeling preppy boy would hit the floor pretty fast.

[riverwalker]

31. as IF....

that prep school pampered prince would run crying for his momma if he spent one day in the real world....hey Tagg, hows that new gig as #1 Romney campaign advisor working out for ya? Heckuvajob.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

53. It's funny, I can just picture him seething at an "inferior" talking down to his daddy.

[68 Rex]

32. Romneys Don't Fight

They urge others to risk harm. What a fucking waste of DNA these chickenhawks are!

[bluesbassman]

33. And just where do you think he learned to react like that?

Maybe from a guy who trips his daughter-in-law in order to win a family race? From a guy who cuts the hair of a boy being held on the ground? Gee, I wonder.

For the record though, my money would've been on the President. Tagg would've got schooled.

[jimlup]

34. Like father like son

Both are rich spoiled bullies

[sheshe2]

35. Tagg you're it!

He is a classless ass just like his daddy. Mittie totally disrespected the president and the office he holds The apple sure fell close to the tree.What a tiresome family.

[tomm2thumbs]

36. I'm surprised he didn't say 'I wanted to hold him down and cut his hair off'

It would be more respectful of his father.

[tblue]

39. Mitt called his sons liars in the first debate

Did Tagg want to punch his fad then?

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

[SunSeeker]

41. Wanna fight, Tagg? Go fight for your country!

[DinahMoeHum]

42. Hey, Tagg: Psss psss psss psss psss. Meow meow.

What a dildo.

[msanthrope]

58. Wait a minute!!! Dildoes are useful! nt

[Spitfire of ATJ]

62. Tagg would be useful to us if he did that....

....he would have totally fucked his dad....

[BVictor1]

44. I wish he'd tried.

It would have been interesting to see what the secret service would have done.

Hey Tagg...! Fuck You you little SHIT.

[Cha]

45. Well, well, well... Of course he did..because that's what braindead dumbshits

do. Tagg the son of Romney, sociopathic pathological liar.

Was Big Bad Blue Meanie President Obama being Way too Factual for Tagg's widdle feelings?

at poor widdle Tagg.

[jillan]

46. These people have NO respect for American values.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

47. Thanks for the violent imagery,....nice to know you are just as stupid as your dad...

[liberal N proud]

49. Has the Secret Service talked to him to make sure he is not a threat?

Think about how that would play, opponents son punches the President, charged with assault on the Office.

That would pretty much seal things!

[Pauldg47]

52. You are exactly right!!!!

...he should be removed from the next debate or it should be scratched....he is very ill.

[oldbanjo]

50. That's a whole family of liers

his mother was lying the other day and I couldn't believe she claims to be a Christian.

[iemitsu]

102. she is a converted mormon

not a christian. she was a christian before deciding to marry mittens.
while it is true that mormons claim to be part of the christian tradition, christians don't agree.

[EC]

51. The President did not call him a liar..

all he said was "Proceed Governor" - how is that calling him a liar? I think the Governor did fine all by himself.

[BadgerKid]

65. The RW seems to like parsing things as it suits them.

They imagine BO called Mitt a liar when he didn't use that word.

Yet, they hold it against BO he didn't say "act of terrorism" when it comes to the event in Libya. BO saying it was an "act of terror" wasn't good enough.

F'n hypocrits.

[spooky3]

164. Pres. Obama repeatedly said "not true" but that is appropriate behavior when someone is

making falsehoods.

There were no ad hominem attacks. There were challenges to falsehoods. Anyone who has a problem with that (I'm looking at you, Tagg) has a serious integrity problem and doesn't support the values that made this country great.

[LiberalElite]

54. Really?

Listen, you overprivileged piece of crap, your father who lies with ease probably never before seen in American politics, will HAPPILY RUIN THIS COUNTRY if elected. As such, I'd HAPPILY DECK HIM AND YOU but for the Secret Service protection MY TAXES pay for.

[LibGranny]

55. Actually, the Mitt is a LIAR and the mean ol President was about to make rMoney cry and made his

baby boy mad! Boo effin hoo!

[freshwest]

56. Of course they have no respect for the job. They wanted to hire on as Nordquist's digits to sign the

Budgets the oligarchs have already written. In between dragging people down hallways to cut their hair and laughing at a dog so freaked from being on the top of the car that it had diarrhea, and enjoying stealing people's jobs, pensions and lives with Ryan's budget. I'm sure there are others sadistic pleasures they'd like to enact as royalty. Which is what they think they are.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

59. Thug. Sense of entitlement.

[Marie Marie]

61. Yuk, just imagine all that blood.

I'm trying to picture those smooth, soft, lilly white hands of a man who has never done any real work in his life spllitting wide open upon impact. I'd hate to see the President's suit ruined by the splatter.

[Amonester]

63. LOSER LOSER LOSER!

NEEH-NAH NEEH-NAH NEEH-NAH

How old is that mor(m)on?

3?

[angrychair]

64. Dang, tagg sounds brave

All hat, no cattle. What a childish and pointless bluster on his part. Asshole. Tagg....your dad is a LIAR!

[dflprincess]

67. I remember years ago some poor schmuck got prosecuted after he sounded off in a bar

and said he'd like to punch George H.W. Bush in the nose. The odds of this guy ever coming in nose punching distant of any president were slim to none.

Seems to me Tag-Boy should at least be questioned so the Secret Service can assess how much of a threat he is.

[man4allcats]

68. The more I learn of the Romneys,

the more disgusted I am by them.

[AlbertCat]

183. the more disgusted I am by them.

Just like the Bushes.

[CBHagman]

69. Am I the only one who noticed that in the first debate Romney pere...

...invoked his sons as untrustworthy?

[truthisfreedom]

70. Interesting family values they have. Dog on car, hold down gay kid and cut his hair, play policeman

and pull people over, and then with your kids pass on the violence, control freakishness and total stupidity.

[sakabatou]

72. Father & son: Bullies

[Tanuki]

73. He wanted to take a swing at Hospice

for possibly reducing his property values, didn't he?

[Satch59]

75. From Wikipedia...

"Threatening the President of the United States is a class D felony under United States Code Title 18, Section 871[1]. It consists of knowingly and willfully mailing or otherwise making "any threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm upon the President of the United States". The United States Secret Service investigates suspected violations of this law and monitors those who have a history of threatening the President."

hmmm....looks like Tagg is due for a little visit from the Secret Service

[DesertRat]

192. +1

[eyewall]

76. Adolescent fantasy in an adult

must be an Ayn Rand fan.

[OldHippieChick]

77. Wouldn't that damage his manicure?

Grow up little boy. If you think this is bad, try having a black man as your father and enduring right-wing crap as a pre-teen. You've had it so rough.

[chef jeff]

79. Bully Boy Tagg needs to be questioned

Any Threat or harm to the President of the United States is a class D felony under United States Code Title 18, Section 871[1]. It consists of knowingly and willfully mailing or otherwise making "any threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm upon the President of the United States".

The United States Secret Service investigates suspected violations of this law. Romney Jr. Should be taken into custody and question by the Secret Service.

[UrbScotty]

80. You'll never hear Malia or Sasha say the same about Mitt (nt)

[crim son]

82. Oh, who cares what Tagg wants to do?

Seriously.

[awoke_in_2003]

83. Tagg, give in to the dark side...

alert the media first- I want to get a laugh when the secret service handle you.

[lunasun]

85. my what respect and manners

[edbermac]

86. Tagg you little turd, you couldn't even beat up Michelle.

She'd beat the white off your sorry ass.

[jerseyjack]

87. The Willard Replicate would get his ass kicked.

[Canuckistanian]

89. Serious "Daddy" issues...

...coupled with extreme entitlement delusions.. = Future George Bush II.

Look for this asshole in 2020.

I'm serious.

[donqpublic]

91. To hell with the Secret Service

This fat, old, white guy would have been slapping you around that stage like a 1930's gangster movie.

[Zoeisright]

92. So it's the Secret Service that stopped him, huh? What a fucking piece of work.

For anyone with actual morals, the first thing to stop them would be morals.

[Rob H.]

143. + a brazillion

Well said!

[Uncle Joe]

93. So says Count Taggula, that's not surprising coming from a family of vampires.

Thanks for the thread, Adenoid_Hynkel.

[66 dmhlt]

139. Small nit to pick: The Rmoney in that picture is Josh - not Tagg

[Bernardo de La Paz]

146. Looks like a Romulan. nt

[Betsy Ross]

95. Behaving like a Palin. n/t

[1StrongBlackMan]

96. And, second ...

TAGG ROMNEY: Jump out of your seat and you want to rush down to the debate stage and take a swing at him. But you know you can’t do that because… Well, first there is a lot of Secret Service between you and him but also because this is the nature of the process.

"I'm pretty certain he'd kick the living $hit outta me."

[Firebrand Gary]

98. Thanks Tagg, just added that statement to your political profile "binder".

[young_at_heart]

100. So---only the threat of the Secret Service stopped him?

I guess he definitely has "Republican Values" all right!

[TM99]

101. Truly Shocking

I am appalled at the way these sociopaths are acting today. This man is how old?!

[pokerfan]

108. Holy crap!

[Botany]

110. Tagg buddy The President would rip you a new asshole

[onehandle]

111. Chickenhawk frat punk. nt

[olddad56]

112. just a fucking spoiled brat. like his daddy

[Bozita]

113. Maybe Tagg would like to give BO a haircut ... if his friends would hold him down

Bully for you, Tagg!

[Hulk]

114. These spawn of willard don't fall far from the tree...

big talking, cowards...just like the old man. This draft-dodging, worthless rag can support the Vietnam War for OTHERS, including myself, to get drafted and serve in; while he is doing his tea-party missionary BS in Paris.

This irks me to the n'th degree! What a worthless, cowardly family of bullies and silver-spoon-up-their-ass plutocrats!

[lutefisk]

115. Give him a break. He's only 42 years old.

Just a kid...

[southerncrone]

116. Yes, force is always the answer when things aren't going to our liking....

Very telling of what kind "those people" are.

[awoke_in_2003]

118. And when it comes down to it...

did Sara Palin name this kid?

[busterbrown]

119. Tagit, you're nothing but a punk.And I just know that Obama would clocked you so fast that

your nose would have been smashed way before you felt anything. Obama is quick, lean and
mean and handles himself well in very physical basketball games playing with athletes which
out weigh him by 30 lbs. He never backs down! I say let the g men turn their backs for a
minute or two!

[Botany]

127. Lots of men can run w/ the UNC basketball team ..... not

or that Obama had 12 stitches in his lip from playing ball and laughed it off .....



http://www.businessinsider.com/late-night-punchline-alert-obama-needs-12-stiches-following-basketball-game-2010-11


"I say let the g men turn their backs for a minute or two!" Taggy would piss his pants if he was given a
chance to fight Obama.

BTW I just saw the President in person and pretty close up @ Ohio State U. and he is in really good shape
and he is big too.

120. What a stupid thing for the son of a man running for the Presidency to say.

Aside from anything else, it shows how little control these people have over their emotions making them unfit for such a high office.

[zorro1]

121. Be careful young man Obama ain't no punk!

I know that your father was a bully, and it turns out you are somewhat of a lose cannon yourself. My advise to you is if you were ever so inclined to swing at Barack; you and I'm sure of it would end up on the wrong side of a right jab followed by a straight left over the top. Our President is a southpaw and you'd never see it coming so stick to bullying smaller kids like your dad used to do and seems to have the temperament to continue bullying the less fortunate and women.

[MrModerate]

124. I sorta feel his pain . . .

Because I felt an irresistible urge to piss in Romney's ear throughout the debate, but had to make do with just spitting on the TV.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

125. So sick of these rich bratty white kids who think they're so entitled. Take a seat, chump!

[Sunlei]

129. a rash, knee jerk tongue just like dad

The children of the Lords are useless sots. Imagine what kind of family they would be without money shields.

[tanyev]

130. So, Tagg, do you also like to smash your kids' faces into the butter?

That's one hilarious Romney tradition.

[Javaman]

132. A sign of low intelligence.

when unable to verbalize his anger, he resorts to violence.

real family values.

[OldDem2012]

133. The immaturity of the very wealthy always amazes me.

[QUALITYCONTRoll]

134. The Bully Family

They're creepy and they're bullies , mysterious and spooky............

They're all together ooky, the willard Family.......

Their house is a museum, when people come to see-em.......

They really are a scre-um the willard Family...............

(spoken: freaks, creeps,shits!)..

So get a witch's shawl on, a broomstick you can crawl on..

We're going to make a call on the bully Family....................

[reflection]

135. Assuming he made it past the SS

The President would have dropped this weak cup of tea like a two-dollar hammer. And I would have been on cloud nine watching it.

[Paladin]

136. Entitled Little Shithook.

Tell you what, "Tagg":

If you're so anxious to do some harm, how about doing something really radical, given your family's history---join the army and volunteer for front-line combat duty. And take the other Stepford Sons with you.........

[jmowreader]

191. He'd never pass infantry school

Our brave fighting men need Tagg right where he is...as a civilian threatening to throw punches at a president who'd clean his clock.

[CrispyQ]

138. The bully apple doesn't fall far from the bully tree.

I can't say how bad it will be for this country if this fucker wins.

[davsand]

140. Meh! The Mittster is a lying sack of shit, but this IS his kid talking.

TELL me, that you'd not feel the same way if it was your dad or some member of your family. Seriously.

Yes, the Mittster is a horrible awful walking sack of shit, but I'm sure that if I was siting in an audience and I heard somebody messing with my kid or my husband I'd feel pissed. (In fact I HAVE been there on both sides of it and it is not easy...) The deal is that you do not get to that level of politics without having seen it happen before, and you also learn really quick that people say shit you don't like or agree with and you just have to roll with it as part of the process while you fight your fight.

What I find more appalling in this whole discussion is that the kid fails to realize that his father IS, in fact, lying. If he sincerely thinks his dad is above being called out he really has some serious issues of his own to confront.

[Rob H.]

142. Mitt probably wanted to take a swing at the Pres, too

...for the verbal beatdown Pres. Obama laid on him. This is the face of a man who isn't used to being questioned or confronted, much less called a liar:



You can tell he's beyond pissed off. (In larger versions of the photo, his eyes are red, too.)

It was a thing of beauty to see Obama slap Romney around (metaphorically speaking) over Mitt's false claim that the President didn't come out and call the Benghazi attacks an act of terror until two weeks after they'd happened, and pointing out that Romney tried to politicize the issue by releasing a statement attacking the President before all the facts were in. I'm sure Pres. Obama calling Romney out on his "47%" comments had the steam shooting out of his ears, too.

[Tree-Hugger]

144. Just imagine

What would happen if Michelle said she's like to slap that smirk of Mitt's face? Or if one of the Obama daughters said they wanted to swing at Mitt? I'm sure we can all picture the sanctimonious outcry that would be heard from the RW.

[Tenleytown]

149. you can only guess...

used to say the same about when Bristol Palin got pregnant. If it had been the President's daughter....

[AngryOldDem]

145. Nice.

And as for your comment, of course they have nothing but contempt for the office. That's the attitude you take when you think you're fucking entitled to fucking everything in the fucking universe.

[wtmusic]

148. That comment really says it all, in a nutshell.

The Romneys are graceless, controlling bullies.

[XtopherXtopher]

155. When I saw this headline, I immediately thought of this vid.

Swat that fly!

[Catherine Vincent]

156. ...

Well, it's no wonder he had that evil looking expression on his face that night.

[boomerbust]

158. What a pathetic chickenhawk coward

Marie Osmond could kick your ass you piece of crap.

[AlbertCat]

159. Just because "Barack" is a much better name than "Tagg"...

You should beat the crap out of your parents for naming you such a stupid "Palinesque" name!

How is anyone supposed to take someone named Tagg seriously?

[DollarBillHines]

161. "Take a swing"? Uh, Tagg, you better practice your trash talk 'cause you sound p88Sy

"Take a swing"

That is about as gelatinous as it gets, fuckface.

"Take a swing"

[bvar22]

163. Don't be an idiot, Tagg.

Your training in Dodge Ball and Duck-Duck-Goose isn't near good enough to take on someone
who grew up in the backstreets of Kenya and trained with the Muslim Terrorists Militias.

He would tear your coddled little preppie ass to pieces.

[spooky3]

166. Here's the solution, Tagg: Tell your dad not to lie, and you'd be amazed to see that

people will stop calling out his lies.

The problem is with your father's behavior, not with the President's.

But then, somehow I think you know that.

The whole family seems Machiavellian.

[and-justice-for-all]

167. Great expression of those xtian values...nt

[David Zephyr]

168. Just like his dad without the scissors. K&R

This needs visibility.

[Cooley Hurd]

169. Hey! Punk-ass with a funnier name than the President...

...not for nothing, but I'd put money on the POTUS totally kicking your soft, pasty ass!

Entitled loser, that Tagg-clown.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

172. Richie Rich the tough guy.

[Aviation Pro]

173. Hey, fucking tough guy....

....too bad you couldn't channel your fucking AWEsomeness into serving in uniform during the last fucking decade.

Oh, I fucking forgot, you fucking poser, you're a fucking coward.

Fuck you and the Siblings of Cowardice^TM.

[John2]

175. Mormon Religion

I have the belief, everyone has a right to freedom of religion but there are questions I have to ask about the Mormon Religion and one of the founders (Brigham Young). It concerns his scripture beliefs about people of color and their status in the Mormon Belief. How does Mitt Romney see President Obama? I'm also thinking about his remarks about Palestinians when he went to Israel. The Palestinians perceived his remarks as racist. One of the founders of his religion believed people of color were inferior and incapable of leadership. They believed people of color can be citizens but they had to be taken cared of. This falls right in line with the white supremacists in this country.

On a bigger picture, African Americans help built this country, while Mitt Romney's ancestors were seen as outcasts. That is the reason they fled to Utah. It was not just because of polygamy. African Americans have fought in all of Americas' Wars. The Mormons have no history of fighting in America's Wars. In Fact, there is evidence, Mormons fought in Nazi Germany for Hitler, because of his belief in the superiority of the Aryan. There is also evidence after World War II, some Mormons that fought for the Wermacht, immigrated to Utah after Germany fell. These people were taken in by the Mormon Church. I wonder if the history behind this is true?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

176. i dont think its disgusting, what i do think is that it is immature

i think about 90% of users on this website probably wanted to take a swing at mitt romney but would probably not admit this to the press

[Matariki]

178. You know, there was a point where I thought Romney WAS going to take a swing at the President

I kind of wish he would have because it would have been awesome to see him taken down and arrested right there on national television during the debate.

I have a STRONG feeling that physical violence is part of Romney family culture.

[AtomicKitten]

179. Rmoney better put a leash on his psycho family before the Secret Service does it for him.

[toby jo]

181. Taggy, dear boy, here's another 10M, go get me up another boner co & ponzi us up some $

just stay out of the gutter with those fists

pos

[SmileyRose]

182. Obama would have cleaned his clock. No Secret Service needed.

That kid is as out of touch with reality as his idiot father.

[RoccoR5955]

184. Someone should have a swing at HIM

With a baseball bat! Little loud mouthed rich mama's boy! Why isn't he in the armed forces, if he wants to fight! Little chickenhawk. Why doesn't he take up prize fighting if he wants to fight! The little son of a bully would more than likely lose I bet!

[Spirochete]

185. Quite the family

You got one son looking like Patrick Bateman in American Psycho, and another calculating his chances of landing a punch on the POTUS before the SS can stop him...

[CountAllVotes]

186. Msg. for Tagg

Why don't you use all of your big fat macho B.S. and do something with it like enlist in the military you spoiled 'effin brat!

& recommend.

[Evoman]

187. Please Proceed, Governer's spawn.

[secondvariety]

189. Obama would drop him

like a bad habit. A left hook and a kick in the jimmies for good measure.

What kind of an asshole name is "Tagg"? Short for Taggaford?

[tabasco]

190. Gotta go through me first

ya sorry piece of shit.

Fuckin wuss.

[Great Caesars Ghost]

193. OK then how bout this....

If the Romneys show up in Eugene, I'll just jump out and take a swing at Tagg.

[Seedersandleechers]

195. Shouldn't the SS ban Tagg from ever being within a mile of Obama?

There should be a restraining order and Tagg should not be allowed in the debate arena this Monday.

[nmurraymsca]

196. What branch of the service did he serve in?

Wow, such a warlike guy. What branch of the service did you say he served in? I'll bet he was a wonderful serviceman. Oh, he didn't serve.

[era veteran]

199. Rich bullyboy coward

A family of poseurs.

[Gus2525]

200. I agree with Albertcat. What the fuck is up with these Rmoney/Palin names? Really? Tagg, Trig,

Track, Willow, Hemp, Trip. Were they on acid when it came time to name these hideous spawns? Just wondrin.

[rdmtimp]

201. Great tweet from Denis Leary

"Tagg Romney said he'd like to punch President Obama. Or pay someone from China 3 cents to do it for him."

[Thor_MN]

202. Tagg, he is just not that interested in you.

But good for you, coming out nationally like that. Eventually, you will find that special someone, but its likely he will be a spoiled jerk just like you.

[wordpix]

203. yes, Tagg, it's the nature of the campaign to call out liars when they LIE like your dad

get over it.

[fascisthunter]

204. his kind is too wimpy to do any such thing

unless the person being punched was held down by others. Heck, he can't even show his tax records.

[locdlib]

206. rmoneys did not do

a good job of raising good mormon kids. unless it states somewhere in their code that thou shalt take a swing at someone when your daddy is called out for being exactly what he is. grow up rag, or tig, or whatever your name is.

[SoCalDemGrrl]

207. Little punk!

[agentS]

208. Yeah OK TAGG, be a big man. Fight Lawrence O'Donnell first.

He calls your father a scumbag liar every day of the week. WHAT'CHA GONNA DO, SON???
(go to about 9 minutes for the challenge)

&feature=player_embedded#t=570s

[K.O.]

209. coward

tag why don't you take a swing in the armed services. you won't because you are a coward. your father called his sons liars, so why don't you take a swing at him. he is a liar,liar, liar liar so take a swing at me. I didn't think so coward. when you see rush you need to slap the ---- out of him. he also knows your pappy is a liar.

[Nostradammit]

210. Welcome to DU, K.O.

[bathroommonkey76]

211. Why do GOP politicians name their kids

Tagg, Trigg, and other ridiculous names?
