The rumor is that now that Sarah Palin has been nominated as a vp candidate her son will not have to serve in Iraq because of security concerns.

We can neither confirm nor deny the presence of Track Palin on this military installation.

It’s understandable... he should probably take up another branch of military.

We were wondering if they would re assign him.

Doesn’t McCain have 2 sons over there?

Plugs Biden’s son is going to Iraq as a JAG, I can’t imagine why young Mr. Palin would be exempted...

Given that McCain’s son was deployed to Iraq in April, and he’s the nominee, I find that highly unlikely.

Who’s “rumor”? Got any references for that? McCain’s son did his tour(s).

IIRC, McCain’s sons are both in the ME.

Really? McCain’s Son is there, right? An English Prince fought in Afghanistan, and several members of Congress, including Rep. Duncan Hunter have or had children over there.

I’m confused... are you implying this is why she was picked? that would put even the left’s moonbattery to shame...

I believe one of McCain's sons had been to Iraq, the other just graduated from Annapolis.

They serve!
BO has never served his country because he is part of a movement that despises our country. He is a closet commie in the pocket of George Soros, the lunatic left wing fringe maniac who wants the U.S. to give up its sovereignty to the UN. Up yours,Soros & BO!

How about links or official statements, press releases to back up your post?

Does this meet the proper posting guidelines?

No more than a rumor, probably because of the British drama with Prince Harry, who's an Army officer, and gets sidelined a lot due to *security concerns*.

Americans don't roll like that. I think the bigger problem would be having a guy in your squad who's mother is the Vice President. Good luck putting that guy on extra duty. :-)
