So I listened to most of Mitt Romney's speech today.
The tone was strident and he used several PNAC dog whistles, even using the term "American Century" several times while saber rattling at nearly every country on the neocons' hit list.
It was so jingoistic that it was hard to stomach the idea that ANYBODY would think that more wars would be good for America's international image. That we should be the world's policeman AND also install the neocons' idea of a "democracy" using the end of a rifle barrel. This usually means putting someone who is "Western friendly" which involves a dictator who rules for decades using sham elections, terror tactics against the population and the ol' "give 'em an enemy so that they have someone to fight but us" strategy of keeping a population in line. These beneficent purveyors of "freedom" then keep the oil flowing and use the money to by the surplus military crap that the armed forces no longer need or want.
The fact is that if we get Romney as President, you can pretty much bet that there will be more feet-on-the-ground wars.
Another fact is that Mitt "The Iron Chicken hawk" Romney feels so strongly about involving us in war yet he NEVER served. Of course, then there's his 5 sons. Want to guess how many have served or are currently serving their country in this Amerification of the world...none.
So Mitt Romney, the chicken hawk, dodged the Vietnam War while he staged counter protests against those protesting the war AND he offshores a good portion of his money in tax havens.
What "responsibility" hasn't Mitt Romney shirked? And now he wants to be President.

He saved the Olympics!
It's good to have someone doing surveillance. His war-mongering should set off loud alarms! One of the pundits said that the speech was written by neo-cons.
You deserve an "atta boy" for your sacrifice! 
The Republicans are famous for serving up blowhard chicken hawks who are only too happy to send other people off to fight, be maimed and die for the sake of massive Republican-1%-corporate PROFIT.
