Normally I try to avoid political content in my Neatorama posts. This one, by Slate, for the Romney campaign was too good to pass up, however. You'll remember that a few months back Mitt Romney was asked why given his unflagging support for the war, none of his five sons was in the military. His answer was one of the best candidate gaffes to date in the 2008 presidential campaign, and it's the topic of this video. Slate/Brightcove.

(too nerdy? yeah, sorry)
At least it makes more sense than using an innocuous expression like "neocon." What was it that you objected to about Matt's question?
Haha, I love it. Someone should alert John Stewart!
I don't really know what I woudl have done myself, so I don't throw the stone.
Probably a good policy. You should try to stick to it next time.
That being said, I think this one was pretty tame. I would think that even Mitt himself might appreciate the humor behind this one.
