Mormon, yes.

Authoritarian liberal trying to shed his RINO image? No.

...I know that there are several here that will hijack this thread to trash Mormons...

Can a Smoky Backroom thread be hijacked? I mean, these threads were meant to be hijacked. Joining in here is like getting on a bus with the marquee "Wherever."

The Mormon thing is not going away folks. It will get worse and worse.

Hi. Knew you'd be here. 80% of your last 300 posts have been on Romney-Mormon threads. You've been kind of single issue poster lately.

If we select him as our candidate, we're toast! Mitt is in the Mormon leadership hind pocket.

Couldn't prove that by what he's done is MA.

Considering that you signed up on this board specifically to promote your fellow Mormon candidate, that's a little like the pot calling the kettle black.

I have a 2 1/2 year history on FR, much of it has nothing to do with Mormonism. Right now, my focus is on what I know....mormonism because I was one, born and bred and now I see how I was deceived. And Romney happens to be a Mormon. It makes perfect sense that I would be posting vehemently about it.

What's YOUR story?

As usual, you presume too much and didn't do your homework. Don't flatter yourself that I've come here just to pick on you.

Did I say that? That you came here to pick on me???

Know I see that sharp reasoning skill that led you to support Romney.

Things that make you go hmmmmm...LOL

I vote for Morons all the time, though in my defense they look just like everybody else while out on the campaign trail.

Wow, Bill Press must be concerned about Mitt to come out with this hit job on a religion. I wonder what Bill Press' world view is? :-)

You'd be surprised how many people who call themselves *Christian* are anything but :-)

Actually what I said...(again that comprehension thing) is....

Considering that you signed up on this board specifically to promote your fellow Mormon candidate, that's a little like the pot calling the kettle black.

The keywords are "promote your fellow Mormon." Since you are following me thread to thread and condemning my posts regarding Mitt and his Mormonism, which I can link to if you'd like, and since you have me listed me on your hompage specifically as an "anti"...anti what it doesn't say. Then I would assume you are here on this thread specifically to discount anything I have to say.

IMHO.

Sure looks that way, CC. But we need to refocus, m'Lady. Romney's Mormonism isn't waht makes him unfit to be President as a Republican, but he would make a great democrat president, don'tchathink?

Actually MHG,

I vote for Mormons all the time....I live in Utah for crying out loud. If there is a Christian candidate running against a Mormon I vote for the Christian....sorry.

My point is....why would we select a flawed candidate, when now is the opportunity to weed them out and select the strongest candidate. If we are simply trying to send a candidate that can "win" regardless of their personal life, then we might as well send Giuliani. Who cares if he left his wife....we aren't electing a husband....and let him who is without sin cast the stone.

But Romney's inability to see to the heart of the deception in mormonism, calls to mind a lack of foresight. That is something I don't want in a President.....and it goes to the very heart of who this candidate is.

Mormonism is about strict obedience, and they do that very, very well. I commend them for their determination but as my dad used to tell me.

He was right dead right,
As he rolled along,
But he was just as dead,
As if he'd been wrong.

Stubbornly adhearing to a mindset that is wrong, just for the sake of being determined can be a very dangerous thing in a POTUS.

For a change of pace, would you please list Romney's very liberal record? Some Republican candidates are 'moderates', but Mitt seems more a liberal than a moderate.

You still haven't done your homework, and are still flattering yourself by thinking I follow you around or care much about anything you say against Mormons. Most of what you say is petty and sophomoric.

As for listing you as an anti on my profile page, it's just a label. Get used to it. I'm glad the list is so short, it's a sign most people understand the situation better than you do.

By they way, still waiting for you to show all my posts supporting Romney. If you are going to malign me personally in front of everyone on the thread, you could at least show the proof. (Hint: search by poster--that's how I came up with the fact that 80% of your most recent 300 posts were on Romney threads with the intent of spreading misinformation about Mormonism.)

Why don't you go pick on the Scientologists or Muslims? You'll get a lot more support from folks here on FR, but not from me. I see little use in belittling others beliefs, no matter how "out there" they may be. But I will defend mine as best I am able.

Sure...thanks for the opportunity (like it isn't already posted thousands of times here on FR, by people who are far mor knowledgeable about Massachusetts and the words of Mitt Romney...Now me, my specialty is the deception of Mormonism and the intricate workings and intrigue that puts Mormons in many positions of power in this country, but the time is not right to highlight these facts yet...there is more ground work to do. But we'll start by saying what does the liberal rag LA Times and Staples (one of Mitt's special projects) have in common?

Okay, on to the reasons that Mitt is a lib.

Gay marriage

Massachusetts health insurance

The Big Dig

He was for abortion before he was against it.

Gun rights

He's a one term Governor from a liberal State with no Political history

...For starters
