To be a serious, practicing Mormon and a liberal Democrat is an oxymoron.

What do you mean? This article states almost 30% of the Congressional Mormons are Democrats (and, which I might add, are each liberal on some social issue). Recent ex-Mormon democratic Congressman like Baron Hill (IN) -- same thing.

Even today, see Unlikely Group Teams Up on Sex Education -- the Salt Lake Trib ran this article about a Republican bill in the Utah state legislature authored by a rep who has an honors law degree from BYU -- and he's been coalescing with the Planned Parenthood director to get the bill passed so that educators can start becoming activists/lobbyists in the Utah school system to promote contraceptive usage!!!

How's that distinctive from liberal Republican Mormon officeholders on Dean Heller (NV) & ex-gubernatorial types like Mitt Romney? (Romney told Katie Couric in Dec 2007 that it'd be OK to "donate" embryos to "research" -- supposedly three years after he underwent some mythical pro-life "conversion"!!!)

I feel badly for the mormons that this moron Reid got any prize, whatsoever. Sad stuff for them. Everyone knows Reid is just a weasel.

I thought mormons were anti-abortion??? How could they support Reid? A putz who is more confused on abortion than anything oBamaCare related?

Long live the King of putzes. Reid takes the cake. Gotta love his personality, too - like an ironing board.

Was he “ex’d” or did he resign his membership?
