MSNBC Host Condemns Romney to Hell
Washington Examiner ^ | April 21, 2012 | Bryan York

Republicans wondering whether Mitt Romney's political adversaries will use Mormonism against him got yet another answer to their question Thursday when MSNBC host Martin Bashir read from Mormon scriptures to condemn Romney to damnation for "lying" about Barack Obama's jobs record.

Bashir was discussing Romney's oft-stated accusation that the president promised the stimulus would keep unemployment below eight percent. In fact, top officials of the incoming Obama administration, not Obama himself, made that predication not long before Inauguration Day. Attributing the position to Obama, Bashir said, is a lie worthy of eternal damnation.

"Which brings us to the moral codes of Mormonism that Mr. Romney claims to live by," Bashir continued:

In section 63 in verse 17 of the doctrine and covenants of the Mormon Church, we find this: "All liars, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie, and the whoremonger and the sorcerer, shall have their part in that lake which burneth with fire and brimstone which is the second death."

And from the book of Mormon to Nephi chapter two verse 34 we find this: "Woe unto the liar for he shall be thrust down to hell."

Given what the book of Mormon is clearly saying, Mr. Romney has but two choices: he can either keep lying and potentially win the White House but bring eternal damnation upon himself, or he can start telling the truth. The question for him, I guess, is which is more important?

Bashir's sermon wasn't the only Mormon-related message coming from Democrats and their allies in the press. That same day, Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer said Romney's family "came from a polygamy commune in Mexico."

Romney can’t win because he is a Mormon flip-flopper who has supported choice through paying for abortions in Romneycare. He flip-flops according to the issue, the people or organization he is talking with — in other words — he lies just like Obama lies.

Bashir What is that? Swedish?

Here's one: Abu Bakr Bashir, former spiritual leader of Jemaah Islamiah (JI), the group responsible for the 2002 Bali bombings.

And another:Omar al-Bashir President of Sudan. Muslim Sudan has just declared war on South Sudan (majority Animist and largest minority Christian, President is a Roman Catholic).
