Backing? Since none of those involved have ever said such a thing, you must have been there in person, right?
Mitts father was also a Bishop and Stake president as was Mitt, and a also presidential candidate.
OK. True, but irrelevant.
No one knows exactly what decisions are made within the cult...
But you do! You just told us that they've been "grooming" Mitt for this for DECADES!
I'm in awe that you've personally penetrated this dark and mysterious group so we can be warned.
Mitt is in the process of becoming a God, and that depends solely on the approval of his cult leadership, his current life and his destiny as a deity, is based on his relationship with, and service to, them.
Yeah, and electing him president is only helping Mitt on his way to conquering this whole planet! Muahahahhaa!
Sheesh... You guys really need new material.
I never said anything about "they've been "grooming" Mitt for this for DECADES!", you need to check who you are posting to.
Cute that you are specific about "this planet", you know that Mitt is slated to become God of his own planet, another man who became God, already is our God on "this planet" according to Mormonism.
You nor none of us know the decisions made inside the secretive cult, we and regular Mormons aren't even allowed into the Temples, no one is allowed into the inner circle of leadership and prophecy.
Mitt's meeting with the Prophet in 2005 was kept private as well but we do know that Romney left with the approval of his prophet as Sunstone magazine reported in 2005, ""Right now, he faces the toughest decision of his life. It is not one he can put off for long. As if to underscore his personal angst, as he has done in the past, he sought advice from the man he admires most in this world: Mormon president Gordon Bitner Hinckley. The conversation eventually turned to whether a run for the presidency would be good for him and the Church. The specifics of the conversation are, of course, known only to people who were there.""
Sunstone also reported in 2005 that ""At that time, a senior LDS official close to the First Presidency said that some members of the Quorum were dismayed at Romneys position on abortion even if they understood it was consistent with the doctrine of agency. They realized it would serve no purpose to quibble, the greater good was to get him elected, to give him a fair shot at realizing the victory his father booted forty years earlier.""
My material is fine, conservatives like having more information, especially about something as goofy as comparing the Reagan hating Romney, to Reagan, the man that Romney has spent five years trying to create a myth about of having been "adamantly pro-choice", in an effort to explain Mitt's being pro-abortion for his entire life.
