Meg Whitman, Jon Huntsman, Christine Todd Whitman, Carlos Gutierrez, Ted Olson, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, and members of the Mitt Romney and Sen. John McCain presidential campaigns.

He’s married like Jim McGreevey was married.
Somebody’s got something on him.

Gay marriage is an oxymoron. It simply is NOT marriage. That is not what the word means. It would be like deciding to call every 4-legged animal a dog. You haven’t changed the nature of dogs; you have merely destroyed the meaning of the word.

It is unnatural and absurd. Two homosexuals cannot reproduce. There is no future in homosexuality.

Your Catholic hierarchy rarely try to take positions as state Democrat chairman, etc. They don't have the Mormon thing going where you have bishops in the US Senate, or serving as Governor of Massachusetts, or the First President running for US President.

I hope you can see that admittedly subtle distinction but there it is.

There's no Center in American politics ~ and i've explained that numerous times. However, the GOP-e does exist and they still imagine the best way for Republicans to win elections is to imitate Democrat politicians.

I'd guess there might be more sex that way, but otherwise they've managed to LOSE more than a dozen Presidential elections since Hoover with that particular idea.

They have become a burden we can ill afford any longer.

BTW, a Cardinal just got disinvited to the conclave in Rome for boy-toying and such, but he wasn't running for office, or serving as anyone's chief advisor on foreign affairs.

BTW, I'd bet that all along they've done as much as any other large nationwide employer to route out pedophiles ~ for example, the chairman of the board of Ford motor recently announced a work station to work station search to make sure none of their office workers are stashing young children under their desks (being strictly hypothetical and sarcastic), but we did have a Boy Scout national committee trying to get BSA to take the position that what peds do in the field is between them and the local sponsors ~ with some of the ambition behind that idea coming from, according to various tales on FR, inside the mormon hierarchy in SLC.

But we digress ~ the RCs we are concerned with in politics are all laymen. The Mormons we encounter in politics are all part of the hierarchy. You guys need to fix that problem.

[Andrei Bulba]

Cut your crap with me pal. I’m not a mormon bishop and you further demonstrate how off base you are with such a ridiculous “conclusion”. I’m just someone who bothered to tell you that your comments are outlandish.

[Andrei Bulba]

This article wasn’t even about mormons or mormonism. Get over it.

[muawiyah]

Actually, you're someone with an ill-founded opinion and a big yap ~ this article referenced TWO MORMONS ~ Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman ~ and the campaign staffers or one of them ~ so there you have it ~ Mitt's not running for office anymore, but Huntsman might ~ but FUR SHUR both of them will attempt to influence the Republican party and see if they can get more Conservatives purged.

The thread is actually about LDS politicians delivered straight from the hierarchy. I can tell you don't understand the significance ~

[Andrei Bulba]

Oh you mean all the people on that list were mormons? Nope. And you think John Huntsman a lightweight liberal rino Obama employee doesn’t have reasons to act like a liberal besides being a mormon? No the article was not even remotely about mormons except to you. You’re obsessed and it’s ridiculous, as was your suggestion that “we” should ban mormons from conservatism and somehow replace them with church going catholics.

But I’m misinformed.
