Anti-Mormon Bigot Behind Obama/Allred 'October Surprise'
Breitbart ^ | 10/24/2012 | John Nolte

Posted on 10/24/2012 3:50:40 PM PDT by mojito

As I write this, Barack Obama's gal-pal Gloria Allred and the Boston Globe have aligned themselves with the Chicago Machine in a partisan crusade to launch an October Surprise against Mitt Romney. That we all know. What you might not know is that Allred's client, Maureen Sullivan, the woman pushing to unseal the gag order on her own divorce records, is a embittered leftie, a Huffington Post "Super User," and a vicious anti-Mormon bigot. For what's obviously a manufactured reason, Sullivan blames Mitt Romney for a divorce settlement she received during the early-nineties. Time's Mark Halperin reports that while he was Chairman of Bain Capital, Romney was called to testify in the divorce proceedings between Staples founder (and Romney friend) Tom Stemberg, and Ms. Sullivan. Supposedly, Romney's testimony about the value of Staples at the time affected the eventual settlement agreement. Flash-forward over 15 years later and Ms. Sullivan still hasn’t gotten over it.

Wow, how interesting.
I wonder if things are changing, the divorces I mentioned are in Colorado and California.
I do have a great niece in Texas, and she received full custody but only $50 per child support.
Even though her and her former had trouble, she said he was a good father, and he saw the kids weekly.
So I just don’t get it.
But thanks for the low down on your brother, that in itself deserves a new PhD award.

Reading this article, the lady is whining about the IPO. That is what this nonsense is about.

Yea, I think you are right.
It really is a none issue, Allred is just a female dog.

She received 500,000 shares ... however she sold them at say 2.00 just before the company went public and sold at 19.00.
This sounds like a problem with her financial adviser not Romney. At the time he testified the stock was not worth much and he didn’t believe they would ever be worth anything.
This is all ridiculous!!

“anti-mormon or anti-mormonISM”

You’ve stumped me. I’m not an intellectual but I think it’s “anti-Mormon.”
Anti-MormonISM seems to me to be anti-a-certain-religion. We have a little thing called freedom. That said, I don’t know why a large number of people use Governor Romney’s religion to explain a dislike for him. I think he’s a remarkable individual.

Who said people can not beleive what they want?
Don’t know anyone who is anti-mormon, I know I am not.
I am anti-mormonISM and yes I will expose mormonISM every chance I get.

Texas is a flustercuck when it comes to child support.

Specifically in the order signed by the judge it states I will not receive a garnishment UNLESS I default. Three months after the settlement, they sent notice to my employer that I defaulted and issued a garnishment; even though I HADN'T defaulted. Lucky me, I made the child support payment AND a day later Mexas decided to garnish that paycheck coming in (without my knowledge). It's okay though, I didn't need to buy groceries.

Trying to talk to anyone with two brain cells to rub together and get a straight answer is like trying to pull teeth from a chicken. The clerk specifically stated they DID NOT have any record I defaulted, nor could they locate the order (even though I sent them the copy my employer provided) stating I defaulted and a garnishment was initiated. I existed in bureaucratic purgatory getting transferred from office to office and clerk to clerk for two weeks before I finally gave in.

In awesome fashion they sent her the extra (double) payment that month, but somewhere on some database, I supposedly have a 'credit' that I'm sure won't hit the system when I switch employers. Thankfully, I'm stationed on the other side of the country and can't afford to pay an attorney just to chase that rabbit down the hole.

But hey, at least with that extra CS payment my unemployed ex was able to get that new iPhone and I got to continue paying off her Suburban and the credit cards she ran up (as part of the settlement; she was "entitled" as it were, to provide quotes from the nasty divorce) during the marriage.

BTW, if anyone knows of any single subservient, not yet Americanized Arab (preferably attractive) women that are open to Christianity, beer, and bacon let me know. I think I'm done with crazy, spoiled, adulterous, white women that believe the world owes them something. And certainly I'm a better catch than some 4th world, cave dwelling savage. I'm also open to women from the former USSR. Looking in the 24-28 age range as I'd like more children; and a pre-nup.

You had many anti-Mormon bigots from FR to pick from, that’s for sure.

Again what anti-mormon bigotry?
Are you confusing anti-mormon with exposing mormonISM.
If you are, I pity you.

Allred is practicing “I’m a hack attorney and ambulance chaser for the stars”.

Understand that the case was thrown out of court and the door hit Allred’s big ass on the way out.

Even “courthouse lawyers” don’t like her. They have standards too.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.
It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

-— C. S. Lewis

It’s polite to ping people when you attack them, with untruths.

But it was in a form of a QUESTION; so that gets a pass.

Do you still beat your wife?

What in her tweets about mormonism is not true, she is definitely anti-mormonism and she has the experiences to back that up her tweets.

Not much, that I could find.

There are also hundreds of thousands of people who believe Romney is pro-choice.

There are MILLIONS who KNOW he's flipped on this issue: a LOT!

And some of them never saw the light of day.

And maybe it gives them an excuse to flame Mormons by proxy, having this woman rant on so that no important progressive has to go out on a limb and spout off against LDS.That IS an ugly thing when it happens; isn't it!!



Questions put to Joseph Smith: "'Do you believe the Bible?' [Smith:]'If we do, we are the only people under heaven that does, for there are none of the religious sects of the day that do'. When asked 'Will everybody be damned, but Mormons'? [Smith replied] 'Yes, and a great portion of them, unless they repent, and work righteousness." (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 119).
Joseph Smith: "for the teachers of religion of the different sects understood the same passages of scripture so differently as to destroy all confidence in settling the question by an appeal to the Bible" (from Pearl of Great Price 1:12). "What is it that inspires professors of Christianity generally with a hope of salvation? It is that smooth, sophisticated influence of the devil, by which he deceives the whole world" (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p.270).
 
 
 
Brigham Young stated this repeatedly: "When the light came to me I saw that all the so-called Christian world was grovelling in darkness" (Journal of Discourses 5:73); "The Christian world, so-called, are heathens as to the knowledge of the salvation of God" (Journal of Discourses 8:171); "With a regard to true theology, a more ignorant people never lived than the present so-called Christian world" (Journal of Discourses 8:199); "And who is there that acknowledges [God's] hand? ...You may wander east, west, north, and south, and you cannot find it in any church or government on the earth, except the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" (Journal of Discourses , vol. 6, p.24); "Should you ask why we differ from other Christians, as they are called, it is simply because they are not Christians as the New Testament defines Christianity" (Journal of Discourses 10:230).
 
 
 
Orson Pratt proclaimed: "Both Catholics and Protestants are nothing less than the 'whore of Babylon' whom the Lord denounces by the mouth of John the Revelator as having corrupted all the earth by their fornications and wickedness. Any person who shall be so corrupt as to receive a holy ordinance of the Gospel from the ministers of any of these apostate churches will be sent down to hell with them, unless they repent" (The Seer, p. 255).
 
 
 
Orson Pratt also said: "This great apostasy commenced about the close of the first century of the Christian era, and it has been waxing worse and worse from then until now" (Journal of Discourses
, vol.18, p.44) and: "But as there has been no Christian Church on the earth for a great many centuries past, until the present century, the people have lost sight of the pattern that God has given according to which the Christian Church should be established, and they have denominated a great variety of people Christian Churches, because they profess to be ...But there has been a long apostasy, during which the nations have been cursed with apostate churches in great abundance" (Journal of Discourses , 18:172).
 
 
President John Taylor stated: "Christianity...is a perfect pack of nonsense...the devil could not invent a better engine to spread his work than the Christianity of the nineteenth century." (Journal of Discourses , vol. 6, p.167); "Where shall we look for the true order or authority of God? It cannot be found in any nation of Christendom." (Journal of Discourses , 10:127).
 
 
 
James Talmage said: "A self-suggesting interpretation of history indicates that there has been a great departure from the way of salvation as laid down by the Savior, a universal apostasy from the Church of Christ". (A Study of the Articles of Faith, p.182).
 
 
 
President Joseph Fielding Smith said: "Doctrines were corrupted, authority lost, and a false order of religion took the place of the gospel of Jesus Christ, just as it had been the case in former dispensations, and the people were left in spiritual darkness." (Doctrines of Salvation, p.266). "For hundreds of years the world was wrapped in a veil of spiritual darkness, until there was not one fundamental truth belonging to the place of salvation ...Joseph Smith declared that in the year 1820 the Lord revealed to him that all the 'Christian' churches were in error, teaching for commandments the doctrines of men" (Doctrines of Salvation, vol. 3, p.282).
 
 
 
More recent statements by apostle Bruce McConkie are also very clear: "Apostasy was universal...And this darkness still prevails except among those who have come to a knowledge of the restored gospel" (Doctrines of Salvation, vol 3, p.265); "Thus the signs of the times include the prevailing apostate darkness in the sects of Christendom and in the religious world in general" (The Millennial Messiah, p.403); "a perverted Christianity holds sway among the so-called Christians of apostate Christendom" (Mormon Doctrine, p.132); "virtually all the millions of apostate Christendom have abased themselves before the mythical throne of a mythical Christ whom they vainly suppose to be a spirit essence who is incorporeal uncreated, immaterial and three-in-one with the Father and Holy Spirit" (Mormon Doctrine, p.269); "Gnosticism is one of the great pagan philosophies which antedated Christ and the Christian Era and which was later commingled with pure Christianity to form the apostate religion that has prevailed in the world since the early days of that era." (Mormon Doctrine, p.316).
 
 
 
President George Q. Cannon said: "After the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was organized, there were only two churches upon the earth. They were known respectively as the Church of the Lamb of God and Babylon. The various organizations which are called churches throughout Christendom, though differing in their creeds and organizations, have one common origin. They all belong to Babylon" (Gospel Truth, p.324).
 
 
President Wilford Woodruff stated: "the Gospel of modern Christendom shuts up the Lord, and stops all communication with Him. I want nothing to do with such a Gospel, I would rather prefer the Gospel of the dark ages, so called" (Journal of Discourses , vol. 2, p.196).
