When Mitt Romney opens his mouth it automatically turns on his flip-flopping Etch A Sketch. But the Romney family's lack of military service is something Mitt cannot flip-flop about.
Mitt's grandfather fled the United States for Mexico so he could continue his polygamous lifestyle.
None of his children served in the military. His son, George, did not serve. George's son, Mitt, has not served and none of Mitt's five sons has been in the military. Yet Mitt never met a war he didn't like as long as it's some other family's child who he sends into combat.
Are Mormons pacifists? I don't know. Like most people I don't know anything about the Mormon church.
I do know that Mitt Romney is a chicken hawk.
