“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...”
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?
Military service, of course,doesn't magically qualify someone for political leadership.
Mussolini and Hitler both saw a lot of hard combat in World War I and Hitler appears to have qualified as an actual hero in the normal sense of the word.

Being a Sunday School teacher is not equivalant to serving in the Armed Forces..How could you say such a thing ???
It doesnt qualify Romney to be the Commander in Chief of the US military...
He knows nothing about warfare...
Duncan Hunter has many years of experience both in and out of the US Army and his son is serving now...
