Should Tagg Romney, Matt Romney, Josh Romney, Ben Romney, Craig Romney fight in Iraq?
Willard Mitt Romney should volunteer at least 2 of his 14 sons to be on the front lines since he wants so badly to stay in Iraq! Which begs the question, have any of his sons joined the military?

“President Obama’s astonishing failure to secure an orderly transition in Iraq has unnecessarily put at risk the victories that were won through the blood and sacrifice of thousands of American men and women," Romney said in a statement. "The unavoidable question is whether this decision is the result of a naked political calculation or simply sheer ineptitude in negotiations with the Iraqi government." - Willard Mitt Romney 10/21/11

1. Isn't Mitt the guy that claimed his sons served America by working on his campaign?

4. Really? I had not heard that.
It must have been a claim he just made. However, "working" on a Presidential campaign is not serving America. That is an insult to our armed services.

(a Marine with 8 years military service). I didn't find his humorour quip so funny.

6. My knee-jerk response is hell yes they should!
But if they are anything like their father they would just end up getting a lot of US troops killed with the constant flip flopping.
