Mitt Romney: Ronald Reagan in Sacred Underwear?
The Student Operated Press ^ | December 24, 2007 | John Lillpop

Posted on 12/26/2007 7:02:35 PM PST by TheLion

Bleeding-heart types looking for a "minority cause” for which to advocate in the 2008 presidential elections are torn between the candidacies of a woman, two African- Americans, a Hispanic and a former mayor of Cleveland who is more of a communist than Vladimir Putin.

Tough choices, those, and all of them Democrats.

In the interest of fairness, however, the name of Mitt Romney should be added to the shopping list of those searching for an oppressed minority to support.

As a practicing member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons), Romney is aligned with one of the most persecuted and oppressed minorities in history. Even in these enlightened times, millions of Americans say they would not vote for the charismatic ex-governor of Massachusetts under any circumstances.

And, in an amazing demonstration of religious bigotry, a New Hampshire liberal rag, the Concord Monitor, used its Sunday editorial pages to tell readers why they should not vote for Mitt Romney.

This "anti-endorsement" is unprecedented, unfair, un-American and unwise.

Editors at the Concord Monitor even went so far as to warn readers that Romney must be stopped ". . . because he lacks the core philosophical beliefs to be a trustworthy president."

IHT: http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/12/23/america/Romney-Anti-Endorsement.php

That particular bit of editorial malfeasance is a thinly-veiled assault on Romney's Mormon faith, pure and simple.

Fact of the matter is that Mitt Romney is the most conservative candidate running for the White House. He is also the most experienced and qualified, a fact attested to by his service as the governor of liberal-infested Massachusetts, and by his enormously successful personal finances.

Mitt Romney knows how to work with people from diverse political backgrounds, how to overcome discrimination and adversity, and he knows how to run a large organization. No other candidate comes close to matching his qualifications for taking over the Oval Office on Ja

What can I say?

Boo Hoo!

I'm sure the bones of Auswitz may have a slightly different opinion!!!

I'm sure the BLACKS of America may tend to disagree a bit!

The few surviors of BATAAN may weep few tears for these 'oppressed' folks!

You might get banned for uttering the words magic socks. Be careful. I think people like GOP_Lady like to wear the magic stuff, which goes along with their Kool Aid, whether they are Mormon or not.

How dare you equate that flip-flopping lying phony with Reagan ...

Yeah, how insulting to equate someone with a politician who proposed Amnesty for millions of illegals, and voted tax increases of historic proportions on Social Security, and signed into law a government funded abortion program...

Ooops. That WAS Ronald Reagan who did all those things.

(As the church lady used to say on SNL ... ) Never mind.

But do I now discern an impending squabble between the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod and the Evangelical Lutheran Church?

IMPENDING??

If there were any truth there it might be funny. It is pretting telling that that you anti-Mitters can’t come up with anything substantial. Just a bunch of childish cheap shot posts.
 
 
The TRUTH is the fact that the very TRANSLATOR of the Book of Mormon could NOT even follow what it taught!!
 
 

 
 
 
THE BOOK OF JACOB
THE BROTHER OF NEPHI
CHAPTER 2
 
  24 Behold, David and Solomon truly had many wives and concubines, which thing was abominable before me, saith the Lord.
  25 Wherefore, thus saith the Lord, I have led this people forth out of the land of Jerusalem, by the power of mine arm, that I might raise up unto me a righteous branch from the fruit of the loins of Joseph.
  26 Wherefore, I the Lord God will not suffer that this people shall do like unto them of old.
  27 Wherefore, my brethren, hear me, and hearken to the word of the Lord: For there shall not any man among you have save it be one wife; and concubines he shall have none;
  28 For I, the Lord God, delight in the chastity of women. And whoredoms are an abomination before me; thus saith the Lord of Hosts.
  29 Wherefore, this people shall keep my commandments, saith the Lord of Hosts, or cursed be the land for their sakes.
  30 For if I will, saith the Lord of Hosts, raise up seed unto me, I will command my people; otherwise they shall hearken unto these things.
  31 For behold, I, the Lord, have seen the sorrow, and heard the mourning of the daughters of my people in the land of Jerusalem, yea, and in all the lands of my people, because of the wickedness and abominations of their husbands.
  32 And I will not suffer, saith the Lord of Hosts, that the cries of the fair daughters of this people, which I have led out of the land of Jerusalem, shall come up unto me against the men of my people, saith the Lord of Hosts.

A third grader could see through your attack methods.

Perhaps; but they don't vote; do they?

Awwwwwwww...isn’t he pretty? Is that why he’s your man? You sure seem to like to look at him. I agree that that RINO Mitt’s certainly more pleasing to look at than RINO Rudy. When are you going to come around to supporting a conservative? (3rd time’s a charm.)

They shoot Mormons, don’t they?
There you are with that same stupid question again. You are a piece of work. No, nobody is shooting Mormons because they are Mormons. You're so tiresome.

Assuming a 3rd-grader read the evidence, even that 3rd-grader could tell you that Mitt has “talked the talk” but hasn’t “walked the walk.” School-aged kids are very quick to pick up on double-talk like that.

Be careful, you might get banned just for lookingat them. The mods are freaks when it comes to this underwear that must not be mentioned.
