Can we have a Romney comment?

(Here, I'll be your google voice response):

"Romney acknowledges that voters may have a problem with his religion's history of polygamy. 'That's part of the history of the church's past that I understand is troubling to people,' he says. The practice, outlawed before 1900, is equally troubling to him. 'I have a great-great grandfather...he took additional wives as he was told to do. And I must admit, I can't image anything more awful than polygamy,' he tells Wallace."

Oh, and btw, see post #2...that directly contradicts this quote above -- similar to what Mormons have claimed for generations -- and now admitted by the Lds Church in their polygamy essays to be an outright lie: That polygamy was "outlawed before 1900."

(It wasn't. Oh, sure, there was a clampdown. But at least 260 additional plural unions were done from the latter part of 1890 thru 1910.)

Thanks for the info. This is just sex abuse in my opinion.
