Mitt Romney's son, Tagg Romney, has been discovered to have engaged in a contract with a surrogate mother with the stipulations that if the child being carried was not up to the Romney's specifications, that the Romney family would have the final say if the child would be aborted or not.

I doubt seriously this is true........however the 'wow' factor is hard to pass up

I'm not familiar with this website. I have not fact checked this story. I so could not pass up the chance to post this story......because sometimes I am like that..............

Best way to find out how true (or somewhat true) something might be (IMO) is to do a search and see how many other places carry it: https://www.google.com/news?ncl=ddTc...=English&hl=en

Apparently TMZ broke the story: http://www.tmz.com/2012/09/20/mitt-r...t-bill-handel/

So far it's just blogs picking it up from TMZ. The most mainstream is the Daily Kos, and they've had it since the 21st. I wonder if the Press is going to give it a pass.

I hope not.

New Yorker article -- "The Mind of Mitt Romney

Financial Times -- "Born to Run"

This week's Time Magazine has a decent article called "The Mormon Identity," but it's not available online.

Interesting stuff. More reason for me to vote for his opponent. Worth reading though.
