Dear GOD whatever happened to the freedom to practice your religion in our country- regardless of what anyone else thinks of it?

I don’t care much for Mitt Romney- in fact I would rather we had a better candidate who actually cares about our liberty and REAL free enterprise- but we didn’t get that person for our candidate. What we’re stuck with is Mitt Romney. I’ve thought long and hard about this guy and have concluded that absolutely NO ONE could be WORSE for our country than the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

I will vote for Romney. I won’t do it with enthusiasm or conviction or even much hope. But I’ll be damned if I’ll make a “purist” or “principled” vote for a candidate I’d prefer in THIS election when the alternative is to see if our country can endure four more years of this wicked man in the White House.

I could write-in a much more conservative candidate’s name- and I’d feel self-righteous and sanctimonious for a time. But deep down, I’d know better and I’d have to live with my choice. If I did ANYTHING to aid in Obama getting his hands on the few freedoms we have left, I couldn’t look in the mirror.

Will Romney as president make us a freer nation? Will we regain any of the liberties we’ve been robbed of this last 3 plus years? I don’t know- but I SURE as hell know we’ll lose MORE if we keep Barry there..

What Romney’s religious beliefs are all about don’t concern me much- I’ve seen plenty of religious people carry on in ways that I don’t want any part of..

I don’t know much about Mormans- but thanks to Jeremiah Wright and others I’ve learned a LOT about the religion the current president appears to believe in and I’ve seen enough.

Good post.

This article is nothing but a facetious attempt to get us to commit political suicide.

Oh please. Who is saying that Romney or Cruise can’t practice any religion they want to?

Or is that not what you are really concerned with? Are you really concerned that their kooky religions be excluded from any criticism? If so, then sorry, that is not guaranteed by the 1st Amendment, in fact, it’s quite the opposite: our right to criticize anything, including other peoples’ religions is what is guaranteed.

I think that we all know that it CANNOT! It may not even survive these next few months, and certainly the holocaust that will ensue during a lame duck era will be one to rival the plagues of Egypt.
