An actual friend of Mr. Doherty gives a different account of that fateful meeting:

"According to Ellefsen, Romney introduced himself to Doherty four separate times during the gathering.

"He said it was very comical," Ellefsen said, "Mitt Romney approached him ultimately four times, using this private gathering as a political venture to further his image. He kept introducing himself as Mitt Romney, a political figure. The same introduction, the same opening line. Glen believed it to be very insincere and stale.""


Romney's emotional story remembered very differently by friend of fallen SEAL - The Ron and Don Show - MyNorthwest.com

And, Mr. Doherty's mother is not amused:

"According to WHDH-TV in Boston, Doherty's mother Barbara says Romney is using her son's death for his political agenda."

Thats his job. He is president and that is expected of him. Romney is being 100% political and its shameful to use a soldier's death for politics. I hope it does back fire on Romney as it should.

They used to be personalized until Obama came along. He doesn't care about our soldiers because they are killing his Muslim brethren.

Explain to me how one calls themself a "political figure", would it be because he called himself Governor Romney? How is that any different than Doctor x, or President Obama?

Is this really how dumb you guys have to go?

If this turns out to be true, it is quite disgusting and yet, unfortunately, not surprising of Mitt Romney.
