If Romney had served in the US military instead of hiding out in France, I would respect him for that as I respect McCain and Duncan Hunter...

His wimpy excuse for his FIVE eligible sons is insulting to the men and women in uniform...

I wore the uniform and so did plenty of blacks and I support Mitt and people like you make my support stronger. I really think you should think through your bias.

You are correct, I forgot, Mitt said his sons served by riding around Iowa.
My relatives in Iraq didn’t find that funny.

Why must everyone serve in the military? When did we become Sparta?

Did you serve in the military, Grandma?

Oh get off it. Do you have any clue how many families have sons who don’t go into the military? Most of them. That isn’t the only measure of a man, whether he goes into the military or not. Otherwise, our country is just chock full of wimpy men who haven’t served. Geez....

Plus, he wasn’t “hiding” out in France. He was doing his service, which is required of young Mormon men that they spend a year (or 2?) doing missionary work for the Church. That is why he was in France. And each of his 5 sons would have had to have done so also. So, that is what they were doing when they were young men, they were doing God’s work. Got a problem with that?
