Der Mittenfuhrer wants to expand military by another 100,000
http://thehill.com/campaign-2008/romney-targets-pelosi-in-foreign-policy-speech-2007-04-10.html

<snip>
White House hopeful and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R) harshly criticized House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) trip to Syria during a speech on foreign policy Tuesday.

Speaking at the George Bush Presidential Library Center in College Station, Texas, Romney embraced the courage of President George W. Bush before decrying “the divisiveness, the bitterness, the smallness, the disunity” of foreign-policy politics in Washington.

“And then the Speaker of the House helped dignify a state sponsor of terror,” Romney said, in excerpts released by his campaign. “At this time of war, her action stands as one of the most partisan, divisive and ill-considered of any national leader in this decade.” Romney said the state of the U.S. military had declined during the Clinton administration, and he called for expanding the military by 100,000 troops.

Oh, this is rich. Where the hell is he going to find an extra 100,000 soldiers? Where is all this $$$ going to come from?

1. sales of "The Garment."
All citizens will be required to wear "The Garment," and the government will use the money to fund the army.

3. Here is really what that cheap ass mother fucker said...
“At this time of war, her action stands as one of the most partisan, divisive and ill-considered of any national leader in this decade.”

That is right. "how many troops perished this weekend", hang a left asked.

"I'm not quite sure of those numbers, hang" replied the presidential candidate.

6. Oh no! Divisiveness and bitterness!
Up yours, Mr. Romney. The divisiveness has been spawned by the man whose courage you embraced. The bitterness is just a pinch of what he truly deserves for sending so many hundreds of thousands to their deaths, for the draining of the Treasury, for the squandering of our national prestige, and for the thousands who have been locked up and tortured on false pretexts. The actions of Nancy Pelosi and others are examples of sheer heroism in the face of the naked fascism of you and your party.

Need another 100,000 troops, Mr. Romney? Make it a fucking Mormon mission, and you can go first.
