From the article: Plot of the high-profile, long-gestating comedy -- with book, music and lyrics by Parker, Stone and "Avenue Q" composer-lyricist Robert Lopez -- follows a couple of modern-day Mormons in Africa in a storyline intercut with scenes from the life of Joseph Smith.

Hmmm...sounds to me like they couldn't have picked a more to-the-point context for the story line than Africa. All they have to do is to quote the numerous racist statements Brigham Young & other Lds leaders made about black skin being a so-called "curse" -- and Romney the candidate will be (further) tarnished.

(Ya gotta know that Romney through age 30 was part of a church that was still denying blacks access to their temples; and denied them priesthood status).

This will be part of the MSM campaign that would love to make a would-be Obama vs. Romney match-up purely about race, to get the focus off of the economy & other issues.

Taking on Muslims again?

Nope. Running scared.

I think “skeds” might be “schedules”. I’m not sure what a “tuner” is in this context.

The Book of Mormon?

Seems like a soft target.

Of course, compared with Islam, everything is a soft target.

Wait a minute... I thought making fun of peoples' religions was "wrong."

Oh wait they're not burning a koran.

I see that you’ve posted this under the protection of the “Religion Forum”.

Will you ever grow up and get another cause other than bashing Mormons at every turn? I doubt it.

I'm waiting for Mohammed, the Musical (from those wonderful folks who brought you Springtime for Hitler).

I disagree soundly with many points of Mormon doctrine. Nevertheless, I look on this with the same distaste I would if they were making fun of Christianity or Judaism.
