Presumed GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney came out Wednesday against the planned burning of the Quran by a Florida pastor, saying that doing so would endanger American troops. 
Burning the Quran is wrong on every level, the former Massachusetts governor said in a statement to POLITICO. It puts troops in danger, and it violates a founding principle of our republic.

    Yeah, I get it. If he doesn’t burn the Koran, the muslims will love us & bake cookies for the troops. Got it.
Being a general in today’s army, unfortunately, means being a bit of a politician.
They already are inflamed, Mitt. There’s not a damned thing we can do to make them stop trying to kill us.

    Why, Mitt, why?
Because it’s too much like burning the BoM??

    LIBERTY is the fundamental principle of our republic Mit.
I think I'll burn a copy of the Doctrines and Covenants tonight just to make sure I'm still free to do that.

    This feller is a 'tard.
It does not violate a founding principle of our Republic. 
The founding principle he is referring to is the prevention of government from getting involved in establishing a religion...or government preventing the exercise of a religion.
Of course, Romney is either too stupid or ignorant to know that...

    sounds like this Florida pastor has other issues if he aligns himself with the likes of Phelps and his disrespect of US servicemen's funerals...
 That being said.....Burn a Koran if you like....that is protected in the constitution....and Islam is a murder cult and should not be considered a religion.....Kitten Mittens needs to get out of the way and out of the party.

    Every time you turn around it's the Mormons chasing the Church of the First Born, and that sort of thing.

    Have your own opinion on koran burning. My opinion on Mitt--Voting for Mitt Romney is simply wrong. RINO alert! 
RINOs ARE HOW DEMS GoT INTO CONTROL; YET RINOs DO NOT SEEM TO HAVE A CLUE THAT THEY OBSTRUCT conservatism or that conservatism is what this country wants and needs.
Conservatism is mainstream, as are Palin both Limbaughs, etc. 
May these enablers be assigned a camel with fleas, and have useless fingers when they itch!

    Hey Mitt, next time Muslims kill Christians we’ll be waiting for your public denouncement.
 
To: GOP_Lady
    The Koran should be treated with the same respect as the Bible or a crucifix. [Insert appropriate slide of federally funded modern “art”.]

    Totally agree, this is more than just burning the devils handbook, it helps separate the wanna be Americans from the actual Americans.
2 birds w/1 burn!
