Blood of patriots and all that

You may have noticed that Mitt Romney, surely a child of privilege if their ever was one -- presently the ripe ol' age of 64 (ripe for the service in Vietnam he avoided -- instead he took his Mormon Mission in...SOUTHERN FRANCE!) still manages to play the "hawkier than thou" card for other peoples kids dying.

Those patriots who are on the battlefields today or have gone to battlefields in the past, some never to return, have left us a stronger country


Um, despite their sacrifice, the tragedies of Vietnam and Iraq and by now Afghanistan have done no such thing, despite Mitt's heroic battles against drinking wine in Bordeaux.

It seems--as with so many chickenhawks--that the Mittster isn't quite clear on the concept: dying to fulfill the bloody wishes of a nation's warmongers is highly overrated, and mostly by the warmongers themselves.

Nah, a good Mormon boy on a mission wouldn't be drinking local wine - he would just be having buttsex with his roommate.
