Military Moms Story Has Romney Questioning How Obama Sleeps at Night.
After a military mother told him her daughter doesnt understand her mission in the Air Force, Mitt Romney questioned how President Obama can sleep at night, knowing troops overseas dont understand precisely what theyre doing there.
If your daughter is not familiar with the mission that shes on, how in the world can the commander in chief sleep at night, knowing that we have soldiers in harms way that dont know exactly, precisely, what it is that theyre doing there, Romney said.
Vicki Chura, from Fairfield, Ohio, was one of several people who stood to ask Romney a question this afternoon, explaining that her daughter, who she didnt name for privacy reasons, constantly tells her than she is desperate to come home from her deployment in Afghanistan.
This is her second deployment. Her first deployment, she never once said I want to come home, said Chura, choking up as she spoke about her daughter, who is a first lieutenant in the Air Force. This deployment has been extremely hard not only for her, but for my husband and I Every email, every time we Skype, we hear I want to come home now. There is no mission here. We have no definition of a mission.
In his reply, Romney lambasted Obama for not keeping Americans in the know about the mission overseas.
One of the things Ive found most disturbing and hard to explain is how we can have our sons and daughters in conflict, risking their lives, and not have the president on a regular basis addressing the American people, describing whats happening, describing what our mission is, describing what the goals will be, describing how much progress were making or whether there were setbacks and informing the people of America that there are other Americans making enormous sacrifices for our purposes and for our liberty, he said.
