They’re Serving Their Country (Not)

The Romney Regiment: Not a Soldier Among ‘Em

Other than John McCain, who has a son at the Naval Academy and another about to report to Marine Corps boot camp, none of the Republican presidential wannabes have sons or daughters serving their country although most are foursquare for the Iraq war and call their Democratic opponents antiwar pansies.

Unless you’re Mitt Romney and you claim that your five sons are serving the country . . . by working in daddy’s campaign.

Are we too inured to hypocrisy in its many forms, large and small?

Should any of this be a campaign issue?

If not why not?
