Apprently Romney is a man of God. "Mitt Romney is a man of God. We should support him, not simply because he is the best-qualified candidate, but more importantly, he holds moral and political values consistent with those in the Bible."

Yeah Romney knows more about whats happening in Iraq from FOX News, than a Marine who served there. What a pompous jackass

Just what we need, another flip-flopper in the white house. His previous pro-abortion, pro-gay rights statements will eventually haunt him and turn the bible thumpers against him. Will the bible folks really vote for a "rich man to enter the kingdom" of the White House?

How could Adam and Eve be promiscuous if they were the only two people on earth? Also, it's funny he associates big leaves with promiscuity. Or maybe he associates Massachusettes with promiscuity, or doorbells, etc.

There are no former marines (except John Murtha of course) and even when forced to report that there is success in Iraq ABC still has to spew their bias.. Report a little more on the exchange , not the Soros ,moveon sound bite

Dear Governor Mr. Romney:
If situation in Iraq you said is getting better after the surge then why don't you send your children to fight for the country want to be a President.
You sound like George Bush never accept the reality. Please go to Iraq and take a stroll outside the green zone by youself without military escort and armour vest. If you can do it then I will accept your statement that things are getting better in Iraq.

Mitt Romney, like most of the candidates is doing what he needs to do to advance his candidacy. While I believe him to be an extraordinary person of integrity, he is not the person our nation needs to address the foreign and domestic challenges facing our nation. Frankly, for the good of our Country the Republicans need a severe thumping in 2008; electing any Republican as President would validate and continue too many failed policies. At this crucial point, we need either Hillary Clinton or John Edwards as President.

Why doesn't Romney go to Iraq and go on patrol with the grunts? I mean, he should put his butt where his claims are. Maybe he could visit some of those good news places in Iraq, too, without Blackwater covering his butt.

Mitt romney is a loser, this is aman that feels his sons are too good to be in Iraq, but he has no problem with someone else's kid being over there. I'm a vet and i know

Ranes Dalal, do you have any idea what integrity is? If a person is willing to lie in order to get elected, or if they espouse ideals and values they do not hold then that is being unethical! When you lie to the People about what is going on in Iraq, that is being unethical. The fact that Romney is running for President does not somehow change the definition of ethical. No wonder this country is in the shape it is in when people think that it is ethical to lie, obfuscate, or ignore the truth.

I would go over to Iraq and serve but I'm too old and... what? They need truck drivers? New openings all the time?
Ahh, I can't right now but things are really going well!

did romney get this great news from any of his 5 sons?

I'm not sure what goes well with kool aid. If I ever have the opportunity I'll ask Mitt.

"might not have looked promicuous"...How does one look promiscuous?
Are we going to have another president with a five-year-old's grasp of the English language?
We should require a presidential candidate to be fluent in at least one language.

Stage a plasticine "getting in touch with typical voters" PR op for the media to gobble up and then bash them. In true GOP/neocon fashion.

Things do seem to be getting better over there (relatively speaking) due to the surge.
Doesn't matter, shouldn't be there!
Just the same, it's war. It's still hell and it's still an economic sinkhole on top of that.

I think the reason why Iraq is getting better has something to do with the fact that Sadr ordered his army to keep under the radar, i.e. no fighting for 6 months (I think it was 6). I'm more worried about this, because what are they up to. These insurgents aren't stupid. We aren't winning because of the surge, just because they aren't fighting right now. My hunch is they are planning, restocking, working on new more lethal tactics. I really hope that I'm wrong on this. We need to stabilize Iraq somehow.

Romney and McCain both have the same 'look' - its like they have been brain washed..a subservient demeanor..there is no fire in their eyes, no feral look, and no passion in their voice..kind of like Bush..none of them are leaders

Mitt Romney is just shallow, insubstantial, narcissistic, smug, ignorant and cynical enough to win.

Hmm, mentioning Adam and Eve... definitely pandering for the Christian vote.

There is something eerie when one sees a self deceived individual going on about his fantasies and self delusion - the neo-cons made a huge mistake in believing that Americans have some sort of superiority-by-birth that places them above all others, we do not; neo-cons cannot fathom the fact that Iraqis are human beings with the same desires and power of thought that we have – The truth is that their country is occupied by a foreign power led by a delusional cadre of misfits who blindly follow an utopian ideology, blundering along while making up fantasies to fit their delusions. Rommey, along with the other Republican presidential hopefuls is just continuing in like fashion.
