4. How many times was that line used against people that questioned the war in Iraq?

And that was coming from "we, the people".

Mitt is a candidate for POTUS - I am not calling him a traitor - I am saying he needs to STFU and work with this administration right now, instead of undermining our efforts.
As I posted in the OP - even Reagan stayed quiet when Carter had the failed attempt at releasing the hostages.
It is what leaders do. They do not undermine the President, esp during a time of unrest directed at the US.

IF Mitt did support the President out of respect right now, he just might score some political points.
No, not with his batshit crazy base, but with everyday Americans.
It would send a message that he is secure enough in his leadership skills that he is willing to let his opponent take care of this one.
