Washington, D.C., becoming a 'Mormon stronghold'

The stunning expansion of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Washington, D.C., area is profiled in a long, interesting and meticulously accurate CNN story that suggests "the nation's capital has become a Mormon stronghold, with Latter-day Saints playing a big and growing role in the Washington establishment."

"It's hard to point to federal legislation or a White House initiative that bears distinctly Mormon fingerprints," Gilgoff writes, "while it's easy to do the same for other faiths." He cites as an example a recent White House "compromise" on contraception funding, which he says was "mostly a reaction to pressure from Roman Catholic bishops."

LOL! The whole thing was very funny. Today, anyone who tried that would end up on the wrong side of DHS ... You can still see a few covered-over vestiges of it.

BTW, I should have written I-495W in the first post.

I LOVE this! It cracks me up every time I see it.

“I just remembered what Mitt did to his dog”

DID HE EAT IT?

[iceskater]

Yeah, they’re always taking off the “Hon” that someone puts on the “Welcome to Baltimore” sign on the BW parkway. That one always makes me smile too.

Keith Ellison, swear by the Koran, and I don’t remember next day it being as important to the majority of Americans as the Bible.

Keith Ellison isn't POTUS. There's a whole world of difference and I doubt you would be so accepting if a POTUS swore on the koran..I'm quite sure the US populace would frown on it.

“Sorry, but I don’t worry about Mormons at all.

Muslims, however.........”

I am with you. Radical Islam and Black Separation Theology is another story. Those I worry about.

I’m not recommending Abanes generally, but his book on Mormonism is a must read to understand the LDS and its history in relationship to Washington, D.C.

"The next president of US may very well put his his hand on the Book of Mormons for oath of office. Are you guys going to argue with POTUS that that book is NOT the words of Gods?"

YES.

"He cites as an example a recent White House "compromise" on contraception funding, which he says was "mostly a reaction to pressure from Roman Catholic bishops."

Stupid repetition of an Obamunist talking point. There was no "compromise."

Version #1: "Everyone must subsidize these crap embryotoxins, paid for by you (your premiums) via the insurer."

Version #2: "Everyone must subsidize these crap embryotoxins, paid for by the insurer via you (your premiums)."

And since most Catholic religious entities self-insure, it does't make a jot or a tittle of difference either way.

It's still the State prohibiting the free exercise of religion. Which is against both the Firs Commandment and the First Amendment.

There are only two things which are going to make voting for a left leaning Massachusetts squish like Mitt Romney tolerable to me:

1. Knowing the Marxist thug alternative.
   
2. Knowing how much the election of a less than stellar RINO alternative will drive the Mormon hating bigots into a stark raving mad hissy fit.

I thought it was called “Black Liberation Theology”.

Back in ‘08, you could find the mission statement of Obama’s church on the internet.

If you replaced the word “black” with “white”, it sounds just like something the KKK would publish.

[greyfoxx39]

I’m sure anyone familiar with your mormon-supporting posts will NOT be at all surprised.

[Justa]

LOL!!!!

I also found a silver lining in the cloud of Romney vs Obama for POTUS.

That is, flaming libtards having to choose between the two perfect candidates for their false ideology.

Who’s mormon hating?

Sorry, but I don’t worry about Mormons at all.

Muslims, however.........

Likewise, especially, when we have someone in the Oval Office who is an ISALMIC-JIHADIST-MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, APPEASER, DEFENDER, APOLOGIST, if not outright "SUPPORTER," not too mention someone who has appointed Mooselimb Advisors who are sympathetic and who's sympathies and allegiance is to Islam/Koran/Sharia.

FLASH TO ALL YOU DELUSIONAL MITT/MOROMON HATERS.....

...IF and WHEN you can provide documentation whereby Mormons are (TODAY AND NOT 100 YEARS AGO) working to DESTROY our Republic; have launched TERRORIST attacks against the US and actually MURDERED THOUSANDS of our Citizens and many times that many of our Military Warriors; suggest OPENLY that our Constitution should be replaced by the words of Joseph Smith; that they OPPOSE and want to repeal the Patriot Act, encourage fellow Mormons NOT to cooperate with Law Enforcement; have schools which teaches HATRED towards Jews, Christians and ALL Infidels (and YES, I mean here in the US....Madrassas); support HONOR KILLINGS (and have actually done so); believe in DEATH for those who leave the Mormon faith; etc, etc., etc.....

...THEN and ONLY then, will you people get us to begin to shift our focus and "concern" from a REAL "threat" which DOES exists and is engaged in "STEALTH JIHAD" in an effort to DESTROY our country....to one in which we even give Mormons a 2nd thought!

Muslim Brotherhood Creed: “Allah is our objective; the Prophet is our leader; the Quran is our law; Jihad is our way; dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.”

The Muslim Brotherhood Plan as outlined in Philadelphia in 1991:

The process of settlement [of Islam in the United States] is a "Civilization-Jihadist" process with all the word means. THE IKHWAN MUST UNDERSTAND THAT ALL THEIR WORK IN AMERICA IS A KIND OF GRAND JIHAD IN ELIMINATING AND DESTROYING THE WESTERN CIVILIZATION FROM WITHIN AND "SABOTAGING" THEIR MISERABLE HOUSE BY THEIR HANDS AND THE HANDS OF THE BELIEVERS SO THAT IT IS ELIMINATED AND GOD'S RELIGION IS MADE VICTORIOUS OVER ALL RELIGIONS. Without this level of understanding, we are not up to this challenge and have not prepared ourselves for Jihad yet. It is a Muslim's destiny to perform Jihad and work wherever he is and wherever he lands until the final hour comes, and there is no escape from that destiny except for those who choose to slack.

I'm certain somone here must have something as damning and dangerous to our Republic having been proposed and advanced by a group of Mormons?

Waiting.......!!!
