Faith is not his hurdle. [Freekitty, post #16]
I guess my hypothetical is:
If a certain Rev. Wright...
...had given a certain sermon...
...when Obama was a member under his spiritual tutelage...
...& the sermon content proclaimed Obama as THE Messiah...
...why would such a sacrilege be suddenly "irrelevant" to so many FREEPERS?
There's just no way we would have had the liberal campus advisement of "tolerance of all things religious" come out from FREEPERS had Wright said such a thing about Obama. FREEPERS would have been all over that!
What way too many FREEPERS wouldn't stand for a Democrat saying..."I am -- or He is -- the Messiah...I am or He is a god"...is suddenly A-OK if a "conservative" proclaims it?
You mean to tell me that it's irrelevant to you if your one-day fave candidate -- as long as he has other "conservative" credentials...thinks he's a baby god on his way to full-grown godhood?
I am confused.. What is your point?
I’m not religious and have known some very nice Mormons, so the religion doesn’t scare me. Romney is the wrong man for the presidency, though. So is Obama. The Republicans need to wise up and rally behind an actual conservative or expect another loss a la McLame, Dole, etc.
Middle of the road is a great place to be if one wants to be run over.
Adhering to this country’s founding principles of individual liberty and freedom and limited federal intervention needs to be the starting point of any campaign on the right. Where it goes from there is the candidate’s choice. But an intrusive government-down approach is a recipe for failure. Romneycare is garbage.
I said his religion is not a factor because he tripped on his tongue at the starting gate.
