White House press secretary Jay Carney said he was surprised Romney didn't mention troops in Afghanistan, while the Obama campaign knocked the GOP candidate for not finding the time to talk about the troops during a 45-minute address that closed the GOP convention.

“I can simply speak for myself that I was surprised not to hear mention of the 70,000 men and women who are serving in Afghanistan, executing a mission that is profoundly important to America’s national security in a conflict that was the direct result of an attack on the United States by al Qaeda,” Carney told reporters aboard Air Force One.

Obama campaign spokeswoman Stephanie Cutter echoed this sentiment in a conference call with reporters on Friday.

“In an almost 45-minute speech Romney didn’t find time to mention our troops in Afghanistan,” she said.

If this had been Obama the right wing would have been having a shit fit right now and 333 would have lost the tiny fragment of his mind that he still has left and no doubt would have started a thread about it with the first 15 posts being from him and probably within 10 minutes

No problem with OBL or any other terrorist getting dirt napped. The problem that giving the order isn't hard, going in and getting the job done is.

unless it failed, then 'the order' would be the only issue being discussed by faux news and their fans.

So? The POTUS has to deal with political fallout, the guys on the ground get dead.

how does honoring the service and sacrifice of the troops = warmongering ?

oh yeah, it doesn't

It does show you just how little the entire Republican party thinks of the people serving in the military that it didn't occur to any of the primary speakers, their advisors and anyone else in charge of this 99% scripted event (the 1% goes to Eastwood) to say one single word of the service, dedication and sacrifice of people putting their lives on the line for this country

Maybe because we are not like you obama cult members who worship that disgusting ghetto gay drug addict and everything he does regardless of how stupid it is. 

Romney should have mentioned it, who could say otherwise.

So it's Obama's fault that the RNC didn't mention it?  Gotcha.
