Rachel Griffiths: "How many of your five sons are currently serving in the US Military, and if none of them are how do they plan to support this war on terrorism by enlisting in our US military."
During the Fox News debate they gave the microphone to Mark Riss who didn't have a question but said this:
MARK RISS: Yes, what I’m obviously most interested in is how we can bring an endgame to the war in Iraq and yet still do it so that it’s a victory for us and a victory for the people of Iraq. And my question is to Governor Romney.
And that is, I’ve heard the other people up there articulate themselves a little bit better. But in your answer, I didn’t hear how you would end it. I didn’t hear an endgame plan from you and I would like a response on that.
And also along those same lines, sir, a comment.
I don’t think you fully understand how offended my wife and I were and probably the rest of the people who have sons, daughters, husbands and wives serving in the war on terror to compare your son’s attempts to get you elected my son’s service in Iraq. I know you apologized a couple days later up there, a firestorm started. But it was wrong, sir, and you never should have said it.
