It was his great grandfather and before that were still practicing polygamy, I don't think that Mitt can do it until he becomes a GOD.
Both Romney's were, and in Mitt's case, are, powerful leaders in this cult, this kind of thing matters because while law forces the cult to put on a face, it doesn't change it.
Bishop Romney and his Bishop father and why the family left the United States to move to Mexico, is tied in with the question of how, or why no Romney man has ever served the United States as a military man, that is about 180 years of unbroken cult devotion that needs to be looked at.
Honestly I’d prefer a Mormon bishop, to a bitter anti-American communist.
If that’s our choice, it’s pretty dog-gone simple.
Is it really that complicated to you?
“Bishop Romney and his Bishop father and why the family left the United States to move to Mexico, is tied in with the question of how, or why no Romney man has ever served the United States as a military man, that is about 180 years of unbroken cult devotion that needs to be looked at.”
It is also almost impossible to have a family with such old roots in America, with -zero- (apparently) military connections. Even Obama had a grandfather who served, well or ill. There is no family I know who does not have -some- relation who served in the military at some point. It is contemptible that this mendacious fringe wierdo is pushed as the GOP standard bearer.
