Now Romney Weighs In On Clinton And Obama
"At a time when the men and women of our military fighting terrorism around the globe needed them most, Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama cast a vote that singularly defines their lack of leadership and serves as a glaring example of an unrealistic and inexperienced worldview on national security that is regrettably shared by too many of their fellow Capitol Hill Democrats."Voting against our troops during a time of war shows the American people that the leaders of the Democrat Party will abandon principle in favor of political positioning.
"Their votes render them undependable in the eyes of the men and women of the United States military and the American people."

Well, now we've heard from everyone about it --- except Obama and Cilnton themselves. Are you planning to cover their statements, or just criticism from every side?

I just love it when Republicans presume to speak for the troops. I think Obama and Clinton are 2 of the few people who are actually thinking about the troops here. They are the ones who are thinking about how to bring them home, while Romney and McCain are trying to figure out how to put more of them in harm's way.

Well, I don't think there is any question about Romney's unconditional support for the troops, and his belief that we can win in Iraq if we give them the opportunity to do so. I'm with Mr. Romney, in encouraging all politicians to stop taking politically expedient stances and do what's right for our soldiers.

Go Mitt!
Finally, a candidate brave enough to tell talk precisely to the point. Our brave troops are being forsaken by a Democratic congress and senate that cares more about giving $2.4 trillion dollars to illegals than funding an on-going war.
Mitt Romney is a true leader guided by principle, NOT by the latest polls. I am very impressed with his candid remarks. Very refreshing.

Not so simply put: mr romney (no caps deserved) is NOT a refreshing man, but a rather liberal-hating (I am an independent), Christo-Imperialist, politically flip-flopping, homophobic wooden Republican soldier, following the "good word" of dubya, from Abortion to Gay Rights to supporting an unprecedented PRE-EMPTIVE WAR against a sovereign nation based on MANUFACTURED evidence and A WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY. Not refreshing, but simply appalling demagoguery.
