“Especially sinnce every state senator and state rep in Utah have to check in with the mormon “prophet”
and he has influence over every bill...”
TN, what you posted here sounds exactly like the socialists in SLC. It really is quite amazing.
Your statement is wholly inaccurat.. and humorous.
I mean, “every state senator and every state rep” and “he has influence over every bill” Yes they are all lapdogs. Give me a break. Do the democratic senators and reps run to the current Prophet also? What about the gay representatives? Do they check in with the Prophet? Every issue?
Post like that paint not only a biased picture of Mormons but ‘every’ senator and represenative in Utah.
Have you ever met one? Talked to one? Hell, can you name one without looking it up on Google?
Nope, you just throw out statements that parrots the liberals in this State.
Can we trust what you say? I am not asking about J. Smith or Romney...
I repeat, can we trust what You say?
Your statement is wholly inaccurat.. and humorous.
Post like that paint not only a biased picture of Mormons but ‘every’ senator and represenative in Utah.
Maybe you are out of the loop?

LDS Church leaders have told legislative bosses that the "element of humanity" should be re-introduced to the state's immigration debates.
Before each general session, GOP and Democratic leaders in the House and Senate sit down separately with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints special affairs committee, a group made up of church general authorities, church public relations officials and their lobbyists, to discuss any items on the minds of both legislators and church leaders.
House Minority Whip David Litvack, D-Salt Lake, said the Democrats' meeting with church officials brought up several issues, but the immigration discussion was the most touching for him personally.
"I interpreted what was said as this: 'Take a step back, be calm, and above all remember that we are dealing with human beings here,"' said Litvack, who is Jewish and has himself called for cooler heads in dealing with the often emotional issue of illegal immigration.
House Majority Leader Dave Clark, R-Santa Clara, a member of the LDS Church himself, said immigration issues did not take up much time in the Republicans' meeting with church leaders. "But they did say we all need to approach this subject with compassion."
