“I will not condemn those who refuse to vote for Romney; however, as for myself, if it comes to that I cannot be a party to leaving our troops in a war zone w/Obama as their Commander in Chief. “

You claim you will not condemn those who refuse to vote for Romney.

Then you do just that by inferring that those of us who won’t vote for Romney will “be a party to leaving our troops in a war zone w/Obama as their Commander in Chief.”

Make up your mind.

that's not what's going on here. I am from a military family, and every mily I know is wondering if there will even be a military in 4 years if barack is reelected. The truly horrendous, headline-grabbing things he is doing to the military, and national security, are all that make the news, and not even all of those. Behind the scenes, it is about a million times worse, and is already impacting everyday active duty life.

At the very worst, Romney has some respect for the military. Barack despises them, no matter how many feel good ineffective programs he initiates on their behalf.

It is time for some perspective to start setting in. And there is no rationalization not to vote for romney if he is the nominee. Fight like heck to keep him not, but afterwards, no one republican compares to the evil of barack. These are the times we live in.

Hello Nik Naym-

My mind is quite clear at this point on this matter.

What I stated is my personal point of view. You and others are certainly entitled to yours and may see things differently than I or have different priorities.

Realize that the first 17 years of my life were spent in a Marine Corps family and I spent 37 years of my adult life working for the Dept of the Army. That experience has had a significant impact on my point of view and priorities. You will have to form your own point of view based on your own value system and make your own decisions based upon your own convictions, knowledge and value systems.

Let's both hope that we don't have to make that choice and that somehow Romney is defeated by either Rick or Newt.

Be well,

-Geoff
