Oh please. He has lots of detail about how to make sure that employers are required to check ID and closing down the job market.

Yes he wants to start a New program to check status of workers applying for jobs. Problem it is in place already and he did not know that.

FYI details are not the "Hows"

Typical Romney answer. Have it both ways. In my hands every gun has “unusual lethality”.

LDS bleief
Aaronic and Melchizedek Priesthood authority is required to receive saving ordinances necessary to enter the highest heaven. This “authority” is found only in the LDS Church

Catholic and Protestant belief

The Aaronic Priesthood authority has been replaced by the Melchizedek Priesthood authority held only by Jesus Christ. Ultimate salvation is in Christ, not a church. – Hebrews 7:1-4, 11-17; 23-28; Acts 4:12

That is why Romney has the support of conservatives as different as Robert Bork, Paul Weyrich, former Sen. Jim Talent, Michael Novak, and Kate O’Bierne and the editors of National Review, says Keene.

Kate, Kate, Kate, Kate...guess you missed the GIGANTIC FACT that MA's hokie healthcare pays for abortions at 50 bucks a pop..

He wants to make the existing — very small and voluntary — program mandatory and universal. That would do the trick. I’ve been saying the same thing for years. As an employment attorney, I know how often employers are given false ID’s.

“Nobody can call Mitt Romney “naive.” I can’t believe how hard some people will work to turn strength of character into a negative.”

Yup, isolated and naive. Look, I deal with my fair share of multi-millionaires and even a billionaire or two. A couple of them are multimillionaire Mormons. A lot of these guys are quite isolated and yes, naive.

I’d rather have an Eisenhower kind of guy. I guarantee he wasn’t naive, though he wasn’t rich or perfect.

People with obsessive compulsive disorder are perfect too.

The Nicene Creed comes down on the side of one acting as three. We believe in three acting as one.

Catholics, Orthodox, and Protestants should agree to both per the Athanasian Creed. Unity in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity; disbelieving either is heresy:

The Athanasian Creed

It has always seemed weird to me that a “creed” negotiated under duress by a group of men hundreds of years after Christ should become the linchpin of “Christianity”

Hardly any weirder than a man finding golden tablets that were pointed out to him by an angel, that happened to vanish after he transcribed them. John Henry Cardinal Newman explained how the development of doctrine works in his "Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine." The refutation of heresy in places such as Nicaea is a big part of it.

-------

That said, plenty of us are concerned about Mitt for other reasons than because he is a Mormon. Some of us find that a point of concern, but then again, plenty of folks were concerned about Kennedy's Catholicism in 1960. And some of that concern turned out to be sheer bigotry. On occasion we do see some of it here, but FR is hardly a hotbed of anti-Mormonism. If Mitt is a worthy candidate, he can overcome it. As for me, he's not my top choice, but he isn't one I've completely ruled out.

Do you help Romney keep his illegal aliens employed at his
sanctionary mansion? or just elsewhere?

Do you think Romney was hypocritical keeping illegal aliens
working for him over two years after discovery by his local
newspaper, which he was pontificating?

Thompson was the primary sponsor of only four pieces of legislation, none of any significance.

That's a criticism ?????????????

He certainly has spoken approvingly of Mitt Romney, in the sense that he hasn't gone bonkers-loco-full-of-hate towards Mitt like so many strident 3%-ers here on FR.

Atta boy, keep up that "3%" stuff...that will win you and your boy lots of love here.

Anyone with half an analytical brain can hear Limbaugh's defacto approval/support of Mitt Romney,

"Defacto"...does that equate to "in your dreams" or better yet, "delusional"?.... especially in the sense that Limbaugh sees

You're channeling what Rush SEES? ROTFL

that Romney is perhaps the only one who, as a conservative-supporting Christian supporting

Spare me, I can't go on with this totally delusional garbage.

Technically speaking, you are correct.

In all manners of speaking, I am correct. Rush has endorsed no one.

Some people are fond of saying Rush gave Fred a non-endorsement endorsement. The more I think about it, the more I say no. Unless Rush says the magic word "endorsement," he hasn't endorsed anyone.

...bonkers-loco-full-of-hate towards Mitt like so many strident 3%-ers here on FR.

Who are they?

If by "half an analytical brain" you mean "snoot full of Romney juice," I agree.

It just seems more logical to me that doctrinal truth is obtained through revelation than negotiation. I often think that we Mormons are the ones who most fully embrace the Bible. What I mean is that, it’s easy to say that one believes in prophecy and revelation which are safely removed in time from the present day. We believe that God continues to deal with His people in the same way he did previously, through prophets and revelation.

To me, calling a counsel to negotiate doctrine results in the ultimate “doctrine of men.” Particularly when those negotiating have pecuniary and other very earthly interests in the outcome.

...the ones who try to demonize Romney.

Your perception is faulty. I don't see many who say Romney's a really bad guy. I see them say he's the wrong guy, and they have damned good reasons, such as Romney's embracing the concept of government health care programs and his generous placating of the homosexual and environmental lobbies. Nothing personal, no "demonizing," just browsing the pros and cons. Romney's long on the "cons" side.

The point of the article is character and how many voters overlook it. Point by point this proves how clues to character at the outset is evidence of their future actions.

Everyone sees how lazy Fred is yet most overlook it. Same with how angry McCain is, and so on.

Good luck ignoring the flamer on your thread.

Mitt’s the one.
