MOUNT VERNON, Ohio — The mother of a retired Navy SEAL killed in Libya is lashing out at GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney for discussing her son's death on the campaign trail.

"I don't trust Romney. He shouldn't make my son's death part of his political agenda. It's wrong to use these brave young men, who wanted freedom for all, to degrade Obama," said Barbara Doherty, according to 7News in Boston.

couldn't believe Romney didn't recognize that he had just introduced himself to Doherty just 20 minutes before reintroducing himself again. Did I say that right?

Incredulous is the way Doherty's friend sounded.

Does Mitt Romney suffer from early stages of Alzheimer's? Because that's the way this entire exchange sounded to me.
