"The good news is that we have a volunteer Army and that's the way we're going to keep it."
"My sons are all adults and they've made decisions about their careers and they've chosen not to serve in the military and active duty and I respect their decision in that regard."
"One of the ways my sons are showing support for our nation is helping me get elected because they think I'd be a great president."
- Mitt Romney, on why his five sons are not in the military, despite him being a warmongering zealot and supporter of Bush's war
Never mind the fact that their names are Tag, Biff, Zip, Bud and Lex. Seriously. Nevermind the fact that they dad never served either. Where the hell does Romney get off blowing off family members of servicemen in Iraq with such bullshit answers as to why he willingly and fanatically supports other people's children being put in harm's way in Iraq when he has the equivalent of a basketball starting roster sitting on the sidelines. No, wait. Sitting on the sidelines implies they actually suited up. The Romney boys aren't even in the stadium.
Next up...
"I was at ground zero as often, if not more, than most of the workers. ... I was there working with them. I was exposed to exactly the same things they were exposed to. So in that sense, I'm one of them."
- Rudy Giuliani, scumbag, on how he's even more of a 9/11 hero than the firefighters or rescue workers who actually worked in the rubble
Not much to say here beyond this: why the hell doesn't someone call out this jerk about how awful of a mayor he was and why pimping 9/11 for political gain is the mark of a cretin?
