1. Hey everyone

if you know anyone (male or female) between the ages of about 58 and 72 that is undecided, or leaning Romney, or votes Republican, just make sure they see this clip. Followup with a conversation about the Mormon deferment and the fact that Mitt protested FOR the war. Almost no one in that age group was untouched by that war.

I started a conversation about Mitt, his deferment, and his protest at a dinner party a couple of weeks ago and the group went nuts. The phones came out and his preppy picture was passed around the table but what really left everyone flabbergasted was the Mormon deferment. I really can not describe the anger as we were all of a certain age and had all experienced loss. But the losses continue today as vets are experiencing more and more health issues related to their service.

okay, now I am angry all over again

3. Mitt is such a coward.

He just loved the war draft. Yet when it came time for him to be drafted, he ran off to France. Has any Romney ever been in the military?

Seems cowardliness runs in RepubliCON families. My son-in-law has 5 adult brothers - all RepubliCONS who voted for bush twice - none of them have ever gone into the military. Yet, they sure were hot to attack Iran and Afghanistan. RepubliCONS today are mostly cowards.
