Where did I go to school again? Mitt Romney pausing during a campaign speech in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on Thursday.
On the campaign trail, Harvard man Willard M. Romney again slammed President Obama for his Ivy League ties, despite going to the same university.
The Republican frontrunner told a crowd in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania that Obama spent "too much time at Harvard." The president spent three years at Harvard getting his law degree.
Romney, however, spent four years at Harvard, earning both a law and a business degree. Leave it to Awkward Mitt to slam the same school he attended, and spent more at. Why didn't someone remind him that this line of attack falls flat?
Many of his advisers have ties to Hahhhhvard. TPM points out three of his sons attended Hahhhhvard Business School and he’s donated more than $50,000 to the university.
In September, Romney criticized Obama for taking advice from the "Harvard faculty lounge."
The former Massachusetts governor used to gush about his Alma matter in the past. Buzzfeed dug up a clip of Romney from 2006, beaming with pride at his "terrific" experience on campus.

$50,000...that's all? Billionaire Mitt Romney, what a cheapskate!
Ive said it before and here goes again.Romney is a pathological liar.He sounds like a flip-flopper but it's just that he lies so much,he cant remember what lie he told last time.He weaves a tangled web,that would be a disaster if he were to be elected to the highest office in the land.
Mitt does it again. Mitt makes fun of Obama going to Harvard even though Mitt went there himself.! Earlier Santorum commented that Obama is a SNOB because he encouraged people to get a good education ! Whats wrong with this wealthy white GOP crowd ? They do not want birth control to be covered by insurance but Viagra for men is just dandy. Keep em barefoot and pregnant , out of the male dominated workplace. The GOP 's true colors are now exposed . Women pay mind to what the GOP is doing and saying. They are passing laws to deny insurance for women's health care. Pushing for more right to work states aka ' Right to work for LESS ' Trying to kill unions who fought for fair pay - OT pay- vacation pay- work place safety laws- child labor laws- unemployment pay- sick pay Things we ALL want. Beware Lib v Con differences is not the problem GIant Corp / Wall St Greed IS our problem One we can conquer if we work together . Do not allow the ruling class / powerful Corps to drive our wages & benefits any lower . Stop the Power grab Stop the Supreme Court from making new law Strip search Citizens United Whats next ? .
Regarding the show segment about the War on Women, it's only fair to point out that this war was launched by Clinton and the new Democratic Party. It wasn't noticed much by public or media because this first battle was waged against poor women. Even US progressives, for the first time in their long history, have been flatly indifferent to the consequences of these policies. In spite of the significant abuses of human and legal rights in America's policies against poor women, we were all OK with it. Well, who didn't know that middle class women would be the next target? Divide and conquer. It's an old, tried and true formula. Now, if you're counting on today's Democratic Party to intervene, please review the last 30 years of policy. The Republicans create the agenda and the Democrats enact it.
It may be a little deeper than that. In recent years the number of unwed Black teens has decreased. This may be due to information being disseminated better or Planned Parenthood. If you recall Planned Parenthood was used for eugenics. Population control of minorities. If I am not mistaken, there were unauthorized sterilizations performed early in its' creation.
Santorum took it a step further. College graduated Black females are on the rise. This may disturb a person like Rick Santorum and why he is so pissed off at the President for suggesting he wanted more people to attend college. Rick Santorum considers our President to be a "N". He boldly called him that and pulled back at the last second, very clumsily.
Planned Parenthood must be defunded and college discouraged; leave them no options or path to prosperity. It is far better to have the past return to the present; besides...he does not want the competition for his children, because white skin no longer gets you to the front of the line and if it did it does not guarantee you the job.
Thank you Former Republican for your eloquent & informed comment!!!!
