With all the attention GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney is sure to get following tonight's capstone speech at the 2012 Republican National Convention, his Democratic opponents and their surrogates are not sitting idly by.
And , where Romney grew up and attended , appears to be in the crosshairs. MoveOn.org, the liberal political policy and political action committee, is about to unveil a mini-documentary about President Obama's opponent in November titled The Man From Bloomfield Hills.
According to the group's Facebook page, the online 'cinematic event' requires registration and will showcase Romney's roots and tell the "true story."
The movie trailer — posted to YouTube.com on Aug. 27 and just short of 40,000 views Thursday afternoon — takes predictable shots at Bloomfield's gated communities, exclusive golf courses and priveleged schools.
The only thing of interest in your polemical screed is that 85% figure. Indeed, I have two uncles who were in the Army then who didn't do a tour in 'Nam (one, a retired sergeant major, spent many years in West Germany; the other, an ROTC grad who served in South Korea some 21 years before I did). Your figure also includes Grorge W. Bush and Dan Quayle (both National Guard), John Boehner (discharged from Navy after 8 weeks), Mitch McConnell (USAR, discharged after 1 month in '67) and a host of others of that age group who found any excuse to not join at all: Dick Cheney, Newt Gingrich, John Engler, Karl Rove, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly...and yes, Bill Clinton. Point being, the Republicans who barely served or never served -- like Mitt Romney -- are often the most gung-ho about flexing America's military and sending others to fight. Vote Romney/Ryan in 2012...get War with Iran in 2013? If you just thought "Hell Yeah!" to that, you MIGHT be a Republican chicken hawk.
I am quite relaxed your comment to me makes no sense.My comments not yours were in regard to Jack's indictment of Detroit and referencing issues in Detroit which have nothing to do with this topic. I tire of people always deflecting and inserting their bias about the Detroit especially when it has nothing to do with an issue or it is full of fiction and sterotypes about Black residents of the city. I have little regard for intellectual cowards who play the 'race card' our nation's ugly legacy of segregation, disparate treatment etc is enough to fill centuries of anger and inequality no need to bring those pathologies to this site.
Unlike you apparently I am a patriot and I will report all threats against our president to Homeland Security clearly they have the budget to handle these types of offenses targeting our commander in chief . BTW please spare me your snarky insults it is revealing how people like you make excuses for those who have contempt for our values . Please refrain from giving quarter to those who seek to harm us and our American institutions.
We can have Sharpton, Jesse and Sandra Fluke lead the victory parade through Macomb, Detroit and Oakland Counties.
Can you smell RACISM in this video?. You can consider this video RACIST because most people who have succeeded and have money in America are white. They got there by their own decisions. THEY DID IT....ON THEIR OWN....someone else didn't do it for them.
May the Michigan middle class vote swing Michigan to Romney on November 6th .
United States “Let me tell you, if you have a coach that's 0-23 million, you say it's time to get a new coach. It’s time for America to see a winning season again and we're going to bring it to them.” –Mitt Romney

Rasmussen Reports Daily Presidential Tracking Poll: Romney 48%, Obama 44%
I am interested in a the good American era for all Americans, especially the middle class. Obama has not and cannot deliver this. That's why Barack HUSSEIN Obama MUST GO!
Greg and I OWN our comments. So do Debbie Thomas and Diana L. Sibel. If "Janet" took that step, we'd be at 100%. Let's see who's taking the R side of this discussion: Mercy Warren, John Saylor and Marc J. DeLuca -- Kudos for using your real names. But the rest of you... "Sebastian" "Susan V" "Mary" "RB" "Time for a change" "TaterSalad" Time to step up and OWN your words -- or do nothing and admit your cowardice to everyone who sees this page in future.
HA! You don;t happen to be one of the academia savants. You say "Failure and cowardice?" Could you be referring to the man now sitting in the oval office.
Ditto!!.I have always been the author and owner of my words and activism of course there is a price to pay for being transparent it has brought me death threats, employment termination and many in Birmingham have label and treated me like a pariah especially when the issue involves RACE

I am contacting regional editors to urge that they do so.
This is a garbage outfit.
