On-Topic Glen Dougherty (Navy Seal killed in Libya): Mother to Romney: Stop politisizing my son's death

[MassRuss]

She said this this afternoon. He supposedly will stop. at least today's version of Mitt says he'll stop; Like Scarlet said, he'll think about tomorrow @ Tara

I saw this today. Good for her. To think Romniact thinks he can do anything he wants. Such a bastard!!!!

Thanks for making the thread!!!

Didn't Romney avoid the Draft? And he comes out with

When he and his colleagues there heard that the consulate was under attack ... they went there. They didn't hunker down where they were in safety. They rushed there to go help," Romney said. "This is the American way: We go where there's trouble. We go where we're needed. And right now we're needed. Right now the American people need us."

 

[ReadyWithReadyWit]

"I don't trust Romney," she said. "He shouldn't make my son's death part of his political agenda. It's wrong to use these brave young men, who wanted freedom for all, to degrade Obama."

Oops... yeah, it turns out you have to do more than just casually meet with people to convince them that their interests are in your heart... pretty sad...

Trying to tie himself to actual MEN is disgusting. I wouldn't vote for Romney over this fervent use of american blood for political gain and I don't trust the man based off his many views depending on crowd. He would use american lives to increase his stock portfolio if he could. Not that I was going vote for him by now anyway but if I was mentally deficit and still undecided... (I know those are synonyms) this would have sealed the deal for Obama getting my vote.

 

[Kulindahr]

Romney was using the story to dis Obama for not having leadership. Trouble is, Romney's only concepts of leadership involve hostile takeovers... of companies or countries.

 

[loveguys72]

Making political hay out of someone else's personal tragedy is nothing new. Mr. Romney's trouble is just that he's so inept at it.

 

[Telstra]

story with pics is nicer

 

[chance1]

did anyone read the article? what Romney said?

thinking no

Romney didn't mention the man by name and told of an actual encounter

This is not politicizing it ............

on the other hand we have a commander in chief who it appears has covered up a terrorist attack

had susan rice go on national tv almost a week later and lied

he, hillary, jay carney, susan rice - all apparently telling mistruths

for what purpose?

so you can waste your time with this nonsensical story if you like

REAL LIFE is happening elsewhere

 

[MassRuss]

Here's what Dougherty & his best friend thought/think of Mitt. When someone reintroduces themselves to you 4 times in a small amount of time. Dougtery thought it pathetic

Obviously NOT at your apt in NYC

Here's Wiki's interpretation of "politicize". Mitt IS politicizing, so too Issa & the very republicans who trimmed the $$ from the security bill...............

We'll never know about the 4x story

Or about how Glen felt

If u read the yahoo story ......

Romney's depiction post death was discreet (not mentioning his name) and perfectly fine

Mom asked not to afterwards .... And he'll oblige

It's a story but full of bluster and not much else

 

[Jack Springer]

Here's one of the mothers of the slain men who wants answers. If you take the time to watch the video, you'll learn she still doesn't know how her son died.

How do those men you refer to feel about Obama? Well, let's see.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ives-slam-Obama-leaks-bin-Laden-bragging.html

How about support for Obama from the people who actually do the heavy lifting?

http://www.armytimes.com/news/2012/10/military-times-poll-romney-bests-obama-2-1-100712/

Losing by 2-1?

This is but another tempest in a tea pot. All these folks who don't support Obama are voting their pocket books, just like everybody else.

 

[JayHawk]

Again nothing on topic. For any of you to claim Romney doesn't or rather didn't take Dougherty's name and personally use it for his glory are ignorant. Ignorant to your candidate and ignorant to the unpaid for requirements he will place on this nation.

I seriously cant believe the lemmings after GWB are lining up for more GWB policy. Ignorance.

How do you feel about Obama using all 4 of the dead Americans to spread a lie?

I don't know how the president have time to attend every funeral for such a large country.
Would just send a letter to a family member ok ?

 

[MassRuss]

Telstra

@ least President Obama attended the ceremony. Go see if you can find any picture or reference to W or Cheney EVER attending anything remotely like a funeral for any of the service people who died in their illegal war. You'll grow very old looking....................

Romney mentions him directly by name. Maybe you need to watch the man say it from his own lips? The article you site is wrong and what he says cannot be denied in this world of technology. Not everything is cut, and edited for spin. The deal here is Romney knows most of his fans are not to keen on doing homework or even know how to turn on a pc and use a search engine. He's banking on it. You prove him right.

I have seen him do it, before it was news and after the drama .

He was using this guy for his own profiteering just like he will use the American people for his own needs.
I agree its not a big deal but I point this out to show this is one of many times you repeat the same thing in several post in various threads without doing your research first hand, and you are not all that credible. Sort of weak below a C-

move on to 11:15 for the view in the clip

Disgusting behavior by Romney and the people here who refuse to accept his families wishes.

PATHETIC

This is one of many reasons why Obama is now getting record numbers of donations from Military personnel. They are horrified that a man obviously devoid of honor, could be their commander in Chief.
