As if the religion of liberalism weren’t at least equally looming?

It gets people TALKING about MORMONISM.

Not Romney. Not Obama. Not the election.

Mormonism. And what Mormons DO THAT IS DIFFERENT.

Then they’ll start to think about Romney being a Mormon himself and what that means to them, personally.

Only till Willard gets the numbers.

OK, but a flash twitter by Axelrod is hardly going to provoke a deep, impassioned national debate about the LDS. IMHO.

Wouldn’t it look ridiculously ham handed for Obama to declare at any time that these weird Mormons should let their ladies attend all their weird Mormon ceremonies? The parallel to Orthodox Jews would be drawn in half a New York minute and it would only bring ridicule upon Obama.

The flash and the deletion makes people wonder what they missed. They’ll look further if they’re curious.

This is just the beginning. There will be much more coming.

A tidalwave.

Like the Ax is some closely watched national prophet? Occam’s Razor suggests it is a political misstep that even the Rod caught.

Axelrod and his family/parents need some serious vetting. Knowing the Axelrod family has Soviet roots and Americanized family name that reportedly include Trotsky and Lenin it should be no surprise that a communist woman in Moscow had info about 1992 about Obama being groomed for POTUSA. That this is too far fetched for some who won’t deal with it I suggest they read the history of communist infiltration in the USA during and after WWII. McCarthy might have been too far out but Ike was too much withdrawn on the communist endeavors to change the USA. The matter goes even further back when the socialist Wilson wanted the USA in the League of Nations and set up the Federal Reserve Bank which is not a USA controlled money dealer/supplier. Of course Obama’s Muslim heritage complicates his vetting but it is not out of the communist spectrum. Look at Jarret.

Why is he focused on menstruating women?
Why is he focused on mormon dead dunking?

Too many Saturday nights with Teddy?

No.

The story that he linked to is a non-story. It’s not much of anything. But, the people who breathlessly follow his tweets will take notice of it. They will go to the story and look at it. They’ll frown and think. “Weird. Mormons are weird.”

That’s all it was meant to do.

Wow, I sure hope Axelrod doesn't end up like his great Uncle Leon. That would be epic err, tragic, yeah that's it, TRAGIC.

“I think Mormonism is downright creepy and is nothing but a corrupt money-grubbing cult.”

BS and if Romney is the nominee I’ll be voting for him.

You can defend your Bishop Romney support any way you choose to, but you cannot change the fact that Mormonism is a sex and money based cult.

It’s silly, it means nothing to the discourse of national politics, no more than similar ritual distinctions made by Orthodox Jews do.

Bishop Romney is the Patriarch of perhaps the most powerful family in the entire cult leadership, he will be promoted in office within the religion, regardless of how this election turns out.

Romney is a religious leader, his single term in elective office before trying to purchase the Presidency was just for political reasons to expose him to the non-Mormon world. The Bishop is not a mere Mormon.

Why is he focused on menstruating women? Why is he focused on mormon dead dunking? Both of those focuses are weird.

Just a sign of the angles they will use to attack Mitt if we're unfortunate enough to be saddled with him. The weirder the better.

Romney is a gun grabbing socialist. I don’t see how anyone who claims to be conservative can vote for him with good conscience.

If we are doomed to having a gun grabbing, global warming loving, abortion supporting, socialist used car salesman with no integrity in office....let it be a Democrat. I don’t want that blood on the hands of the GOP.

HEADLINE and Talking Point to be used by Conservative/Republicans:

Does Obama adviser, David Axelrod, have a problem with women?

Women menstrate. Why doe Obama adviser, David Axelrod, seem to have a problem with that?

Why did Obama adviser, David Axelrod, delete a Tweet critical of women having their period. If it wasn’t a cheap sexist attack on women, why did he delete the Tweet?

Make this Hitler lookalike answer the question. When he avoids it, or minimizes it, ask simply: “How long have you had a negative view of women menstrating?” Follow up: “Do you think women are unfit to serve in government because they menstrate?

When his head starts exploding ask him: “Why the original tweet?”, “Why did you delete it?”, “Were you just taking a cheapshot at Mormons?”
