Reader supporting Santorum

The dog and pony show showing the father who has a son with PTSD speaking to Romney just made my blood burn. The good old boys establishment has no barriers who to use! This father is hurting. The media is shameful. Romney was a draft dodger, oh yes he did it legally, I give him that credit. His father was against the war, (research) Romney sat in a sit in against his father's way of thing, in May of 1966, six weeks (June) later Romney was a missionary for 30 months, yes a legal program. That in my opinion is a legally offensive cowardly program to me, draft dodger. His draft number was able to stay out of the remainder of the war. In the time frame he just did what his daddy wanted. Keep his son out of the war! Huckabee this morning said this touched him, Mr. Huckabee you were duped. They used a Christian man again! Romney words and body language was not that he really put himself within this father's grief, it was his guilt going back to 1966, when he dodged the war is what I saw. He does know this will come out from the Obama camp? McCain has had a senior moment also? He was a POW, when the guy he supports dodged the war legally. McCain has been used again! I have a husband who has PTSD, and I don't want either Romney or Obama in my camp! They will put the military under the bus for their own personal climbing in the political arena given the chance. McCain would be wise to bow away from Romney. Romney is no warrior. My vote will continue to go to Santorum.
