Webb drops the hammer on Romney - POLITICO.com

So good!
Webb drops the hammer on Romney - POLITICO.com: "Governor Romney and I are about the same age.  Like millions of others in our generation, we came to adulthood facing the harsh realities of the Vietnam War.  2.7 million in our age group went to Vietnam, a war which eventually took the lives of 58,000 young Americans and cost another 300,000 wounded. The Marine Corps lost 100,000 killed or wounded in that war. During the year I was in Vietnam, 1969, our country lost twice as many dead as we have lost in Iraq and Afghanistan combined over the past 10 years of war.  1968 was worse.  1967 was about the same.  Not a day goes by when I do not think about the young Marines I was privileged to lead. " 'via Blog this'
