Mitt Romney - Vietnam War Draft Dodger

2012 Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney gave a speech about how greatness should be measured by sacrifice, but does this conflict with his draft dodging during the Vietnam war? The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur explains.

If Romney wins im moving.

[El Celoso Cervantes]

How upsetting. Romney allegedly avoided the draft and had the titanium cojones to keep up the facade and stand up in grin if a podium in front if vets who saw hell as eighteen-nineteen-year-olds. This is the man half of America rooted for? A lying hypocrite? Wake up and smell the coffee, Barry isn't the only presidential candidate with skeletons in his closet. He fled (the correct term) to France with the facade that his Anne was fooling around with another guy

It just shows how much of a pussy they are.

Hey young turds

What's your fucking point - that someone who hasn't served in the military has no legitimacy to lead the military as commander in chief?

I'm glad your boy osama has so much military experience.

Be careful to imply that getting deferments equates to cowardice or any such lib-tard thinking -- you'd be surprised which of your "heroes" have had deferments.

Let's examine an extension of YOUR logic:

If buttfuck libs pay no fed income tax, should they have their vote taken away?

Woodrow "DumbFuck democrat university academic stroked-out worthless big govt" Wilson -- WW I.

FDR "Big Daddy with a Mistress StackTheSupremeCourt Expand Big Govt" -- WW II

LB "Ive screwed more women in the Oval Office than that damned Jack Kennedy" Johnson -- Vietnam

Yeah.

Republicans have a PHILOSOPHICAL penchant for war, while demoCRAPs don't.

SLAP MY ASS AND CALL ME BECKY.

At least the mob has a code, politics as none.

[John Smith]

He looked like a footnote before the election. He looks like one now. And he is a mere footnote. What a hollow man.
