Mitt Romney the Draft Dodger and Chickenhawk

By Peter Paton

Mitt Romney, incredibly, was able to avoid serving in Vietnam because he was on his Mormon mission, driving around the French countryside. (The Mormon church defined missions — which all good young Mormon men go on — as a form of priesthood.) In fact, not one of Romney’s five sons has served in the military either, despite Mitt arguing for U.S. military involvement in Iraq and elsewhere.

Even more outrageously, when he was asked to justify this hypocrisy, Romney claimed that his sons were serving the country by driving Winnebagos around Iowa and campaigning for him.

In these dangerously unstable and hostile times that America finds itself in both at home and in the volatile and turbulent foreign lands of Iraq, Afghanistan and Iran, America needs a strong horse as its Commander in Chief, not a draft dodger and chickenhawk like Mitt Romney, who neither has the leadership experience, moral fiber and courage to take the necessary decisions that will have to be faced in the event of a likely major war in the Middle East, as Iran verges of developing nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction.

This coming Presidential election in November 2012 will be the most momentous and decisive period in the history of the American Republic. The choice will be stark and simple, do we give President Barack Hussein Obama another four years to conclude his Cloward Piven strategy on America and turn it into a Marxist/Islamic Wasteland, or elect a spiritual warrior who will rescue the Republic from impending doom and disaster, and restore the broken and shattered constitution of the Founding Fathers.
