Chickenhawk Romney: But my son is driving a Winnebago around Iowa to help me win!

[draft_mario_cuomo]

Multiple Choice Mitt was asked whether any of his 5 kids were serving in Iraq or had plans to serve in Iraq. Hilarity ensued.

=="Are any of your five sons currently serving in the United States military and if not are any of them planning to support the war on terror by enlisting in the United States Military." ==

==In a nut shell his answer was:
"We have a voluntary army in this country."
"There are a variety of ways you can show your support for our soldiers. My sons are showing support by trying to get me elected as the President of the United States."

Then he went into a story about his niece(it was hard to follow what he was saying here. I had not idea where he was going with it or how it related to my question) and something about a new house and laying down sod within the first year...well one morning his niece woke up and a group of people were out in for not her house laying down this sod for her yard.........==

=="There are a variety of ways we can show support for our military and our nation. My son Josh bought a Winnebago and is driving across the State of Iowa to get me elected."==

4. I Still Can't Believe That He Said It

His response is right out of "Fahrenheit 9/11" in that America's wealthy elite by and large believe that service should be left up to people with fewer opportunities who will benefit more from the military's offerings of upward mobility.

5. Is there a dog carrier/pen tied to the roof?

6. I thought it was hysterical

that Jon Stewart asked Biden last night if he thought he should get his son out of the National Guard to help in his presidential run and therfore make him a better supporter of the troops. Slammed the Romney family right down on Nat TV. Biden just laughed as did the audience.
