...and here's why.
He's another Massachusetts flip-flopper.
During the Vietnam War, instead of serving his country, Romney dodged the draft by doing "missionary" work in FRANCE.
If he becomes the GOP nominee he'll be the first Republican nominee since Thomas Dewey who never served in the military (by the way, Herbert Hoover is the last Republican presidential candidate without military service to actually win the presidency).
During one of the debates, Romney essentially said that anyone without experience working in the private sector is unqualified to be president; meaning that he believes someone who spends their entire adult life serving their country (e.g. Eisenhower) in uniform is automatically unqualified to be president - meaning he hates career military personnel.
Since President Bush's two daughters not serving in the military has become an issue, Romney's five SONS not serving in the military will of course become an issue.

This is frustrating, because Mitt Romney is a douche, but the reasons you give are all petty.
Flip flopping? People change their minds. "Why?" is the important question.
The Vietnam War was as stupid and pointless as Iraq. Can't fault him for skipping out on that one.
I don't care that he's never served in the military.
I do think that someone who's spent their entire life in government is likely to be disconnected from the lives of their constituents.
As long as the warfare machine is running things, I'll never let my kids join the military, so I can only respect him for not encouraging his children to do so.
Mitt Romney is a douche because he has no consistent principles that I can discern. He doesn't seem to understand the concept of constitutionally limited government and the American tradition of individual liberty. And, most importantly, he's just more of the same.
But these criticisms can be leveled at all of the MSM approved candidates. Status quo prevails. It's all "Dancing with the Stars" as far I can see.

Nah, you want a real reason to hate Romney, ask where his money comes from.
Find out what his buddies Lichfield and Sembler do to get it.
There is no greater crime in all the world than the destruction of children for personal gain, none.
He might have publicly distanced himself to look good, but he still took the money in the first place, and damned well he knows where it came from.

Is there anyone who has obtained a large amount of $$ in the private sector who you DON'T feel got rich by ill gotten means ?
And do you KNOW for sure, are you are just fishing for answers ?

I don't like any of the canidates. As far as the republicans go they smell like the rockerfeller bunch. There are no more conservatives I fear in the party. The vietnam war for sure did one thing it stop communist expansion. Today the communists want to fly to the USA, France, and Japan with Boeing jets. All the oppressors they want to fly to, not Moscow or Red China. Thanks McCain for opening trade. We have a generation of sixties bums to deal with Clinton, Bush, Cheney, and Romney. All draft dodgers, National Guard was for rich white kids back then. All ya had to do is be cook on an aircraft carrier steaming off North Vietnam man you would be a war hero today. If you go into the service join the airforce they are the only ones who send their officiers into battle. I like that idea. F105 Thunderchief pilots real heroes in my book. They didn't callem thuds for nothing. Later Gators.

Of course there is, that doesn't excuse those guilty of it however.
"And do you KNOW for sure, are you are just fishing for answers ?"
Hell yes I know, remember I've been on Sembler and Lichfields cases since before they had any involvement in Romney's campaign, and my ire at Synanon/The Seed/WWASP has pre-dated even them.
Had you been payin attention, instead of ranting, you woulda known that.

Clarification:
Apparently I was not alone in making that connection.

As for their connection with Synanon/The Seed - which crosses paths with some *really* strange shit if you trace it further back...
Here's a somewhat outdated flowchart of affiliated orgs and facilities, there's a lot more off the books, through holding companies and fronts, and many of them are also outside US Jurisdiction.

EDIT: Adding Article and updated, simplified flowchart.

Here are some partial roll-calls of the dead, these only include fully confirmed post-program suicides we can absolutely prove and connect with the systems in question.

For every death, there are dozens, at least, of mentally "broken", emotionally destroyed children - many of whom destroy themselves with drugs, alcohol, or wind up in the penal system, all of them unable to cope, and with very little help available, especially since in light of the "help" they recieved, they actively resist such attempts and do not seek them out.
They also do not often have family support as in many cases, out of intent, lack of empathy, or ignorance, it is the family they hold responsible.
Just *IMAGINE* the horror of being "dissappeared" to what amounts to a torture gulag by your own family, unable to communicate with the outside world, abused physically and mentally far past the breaking point, and then thrown away when no longer a source of profit for the facility in question.
Think it doesn't happen in America ?
Think again.
http://www.journalismcenter.org/awards/nadya_labi.html
And there are HUNDREDS of these facilities, Shelby has a partial list of the worst, currently on our watch list, and who they are connected to, and even sixty seconds of research will net you long histories of abuse, criminal charges, facility closings, coverups, and endless testimony of former victims.
http://isaccorp.org/watchlist.asp
But that's just the tip of the iceberg, not including satellite facilities, those owned through fronts and holding companies, and unlicensed "black" sites and transfer facilities.
I can say for a fact you have no IDEA how deep, how dark, that rabbit hole goes, and to be completely blunt about it, you never, ever want to.
I seem to be one of the few who can get through to former victims and help them, and it ain't easy, many are so closed off from the world that has done this to em that they're nearly catatonic - and actively hostile to anyone they perceive as part of that system, specifically including conventional theraputic or mental health personnel, so at the entry point there ain't a lot of options left, especially if there is no family support or bond left to work with.
And frankly, not all of em even want any help, there's a heartbreak impossible to express when you reach out a hand to someone drowning in pain and they turn their back on it, and you HAVE to let it be that way...
And these bastards financed Romney with his knowing support.
That damns him UTTERLY, in my eyes.
Evil isn't a word I use lightly, but the folks makin a buck off this define the very term.

Meh, sounds a bit too Black Helicopterish for me to buy. Lots of speculation as to who or what 'should have ' known, etc.... blah blah.
I still support Mitt.
