What Is It with Romney and the Truth?

Mitt Romney can't seem to keep it together. After a smarmy speech all about religion and morality, he lays out pandering lies in an effort to get votes.

The latest lie concerns his father, George "Brainwash" Romney and Martin Luther King.

Boston Phoenix reporter David Bernstein
asked the Romney camp for details about that incident. They told him it
happened in Grosse Pointe, Michigan—a march briefly referred to in a
1967 David Broder book on the Republican Party. But the Grosse Pointe Historical Society tells the Phoenix King never marched there. (The Civil Rights movement leader appeared only once in town, after Broder's book was published.)

As for seeing his father in that march? Mitt was smack dab in the middle of his requisite two-year Mormon mission—in Le Havre, France.
