“It was not my desire to go off and serve in Vietnam, but nor did I take any actions to remove myself from the pool of young men who were eligible for the draft,” Romney told the newspaper.


Think Progress notes that Romney applied for and got 4 deferments.

“I longed in many respects to actually be in Vietnam and be representing our country there, and in some ways it was frustrating not to feel like I was there as part of the troops that were fighting in Vietnam.”

to Vietnam". However, right there on his TANG documents he checked the box which said "I do not desire overseas duty". Now I supose Li'l Boots was actually so fucking dumb that he didn't know that VietNam was "overseas", but I think it's more likely that he was (is) a coward and a liar.

Purchase ad time (TV, Radio, Print, Billboards and Internet) simply stating how Romney was then and now.

I once said if Romney became president he would install a political weather vane to see which way the wind was blowing before he did anything.

I now think the White House will be more like a merry-go-round, constantly spinning.

Maddow called him out on the ad he's running about the Solyndra "friends and family" bullshit, other news sources picked up on it, and Rmoney is STILL running the bullshit ad. He has no soul.
