Reid made me sick with his speech. What an out and out fraud that man is. And the reception at BYU was not all that warm. Forums average about 6,000 attendees, Harry got 4,081. He received a small smattering of standing ovations.
I think the conservatives were trying to prove that they could be courteous to all speakers, regardless of their political views. Harry Reid just messed it up and made very inappropriate and wrong statements. IMO, I don’t think he will ever be invited back to BYU to speak.
Does this Johhnie-come-lately (1988) MINO understand what it means to sustain a President Benson as "Prophet, Seer, and Revelator?"
By his own words he has admitted that it is his view that the Church is going in the "wrong direction," President Hinckley and the rest of the general leadership notwithstanding.
The Church most likely will not address this matter during a period of time when to do so could wrongfully interfere with national elections (including Reid's) and foment national controversity, but the Church never has observed a "statute of limitations" for spiritual transgressions and the resulting ecclesiatical disciplinary proceedings.
I have no doubt that "Brother Reid" will face eccesiastical justice at an appropriate time of his stake president's choosing. In the meantime, I hope that I do not have the misfortune of seeing his sour countenance in holy places in the Washington, D.C. areas, or elsewhere for that matter.
A seat in the massive Conference Center during General Conference is a courtesy and not a right with respect to visiting "dignitaries."
In the meantime, Orrin Hatch and other LDS legislators and other government officials and employees, BYU students, the Nevada electorate, and others should distance themselves from this dangerous, two-faced opportunist....
