Draft-dodging Mitt Romney
Exclusive: Andrew Longman explains how candidate got out of Vietnam service

Mitt Romney doesn’t describe himself as a draft dodger. He does his best to portray an “apple pie and the flag” image of Americana. He likes to be known as Mr. Toughguy and a strong-military Republican. And so it may come as a bit of a shock to the average reader to learn that Romney wiggled out of the draft during Vietnam. It’s one of the many concussions from Boston Globe reporters Michael Kranish and Scott Helman in their new book, “The Real Romney.”

Willard “Mitt” Romney started college with an academic deferment. Being at Stanford was an automatic get-out-of-war-free card for him, the reasons our country allowed college students this at the time being a worthy focus for another column. But then Romney left Stanford to go work full-time for the Mormons.

Comment by truth on August 17, 2012 at 12:20am: I didn't watch madcow either, but there is a clip explaining Romney s silver spoon run away from our draft.

Comment by truth on August 17, 2012 at 12:19am: SO who are you addressing your message to Thomas? The majority of folks here see beyond a right or left, and the two party dictatorship. You wont find any love for Obama here I expect.

Comment by Thomas Richard McClure on August 16, 2012 at 11:51pm: AND OBAMA BOWED TO A MUSLIM LEADER..........SO, YOUR POINT WOULD BE?

Comment by Nathan on August 16, 2012 at 8:23pm: Troy,

I think you meant to say Rachel MadCow......

Comment by Amerikagulag on August 16, 2012 at 5:59pm: First off, I wouldn't watch Rachael Maddow because it is Israel that is destroying the US from the inside out. Secondly, I couldn't care less about Mittens or his previous lack of military experience. What branch did Obama serve in? In fact, what country was he born in?

George Washing University Constitutional Law Professor, Jonathan Turley, wisely noted, "Anyone who believes there are two parties in Washington DC is a fool."

I agree with him and I add my own 2 cents: Anyone who votes inside the 'red pill/blue pill' box this time around is a traitor.

Repocrats and Demopublicans not a dimes wirth of difference. They all serve Israel.

AIPAC and ADL should be registered as foreign agents. Dissolve the FED.

As if serving in the US military is an honorable endeavor!!! Wake up!
