Silly Media! You can't SwiftBoat a chickenhawk who ducked out of Vietnam ! [View all]

Romney didn't earn any medals in 3 years of telling French kids put down the wine and become Mormons. Young Mitt Romney was very much in favor of sending his peers to Vietnam (and it wasn't just so they would get a forced haircut).

Romney has never worn a uniform that he earned the right to wear, or that came with actual responsibility to protect the health and safety of others.

He has never shown moral conviction, never threw his un-earned medals over the Whitehouse fence. Of course, Mitt wouldn't have needed to throw them OVER the fence since Romney's father was in that Whitehouse with Nixon. Heck, Romney's father probably picked up Kerry's medals and gave them to Mitt as a present for his illegal uniform collection.

Romney never saved a soldier in Vietnam while under fire and being grazed by one of the Vietcong's bullets.

Simply put: Romney has no honor to Swiftboat.
