From the article: The character attacks on Romney will focus on what critics view as a makeover, both personal (skinny jeans) and political (abortion) … Democrats also plan to amplify what Obama strategists described as the “weirdness” quotient, the sum of awkward public encounters and famous off-kilter anecdotes, first among them the tale of Romney having strapped his dog to the roof of his car.

Weird. Except the supposed abortion "makeover." That's just bloody slimy.

Weird? Like Obama isn’t? LoL.

Heard Sean Hannity interview Willard last night. Hannity referred to Romney as the Republican front runner. Based on what????

Romney said Obama should apologize for Obamacare. I wanted to yell at the TV and ask him where he got the idea from.

Romney will never get my vote no matter what.

Why the hell are we letting the liberals persecute a fellow American for a religion that has played a key, no pivotal role in the history and foundation of our nation?!?

To HELL with the New York Times and their NAZI BLOGGERS...

Obama's "weird" Black Liberation Theology...

"Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal".--James (Jim) Cone,
African American Religious Thought: An Anthology (Paperback)
by Cornel West (Editor), Eddie S. Glaude Jr. (Editor)

SEAN HANNITY: But Reverend Jeremiah Wright is not backing down and has not for years and in his strong stance on the teaching of black liberation theology is nothing new. He had the same things to say last spring when he appeared on "Hannity & Colmes:"

WRIGHT: If you're not going to talk about theology in context, if you're not going to talk about liberation theology that came out of the '60s, systematized black liberation theology that started with Jim Cone in 1968 and the writings of Cone and the writings of Dwight Hopkins and the writings of womynist theologians and Asian theologians and Hispanic theologians, then you can't talk about the black value system.

HANNITY: But I'm a — reverend

WRIGHT: Do you know liberation theology, sir?

Obama's Church: Gospel of Hate
Kathy Shaidle, FrontPageMag.com
Monday, April 07, 2008

In March of 2007, FOX News host Sean Hannity had engaged Obama’s pastor in a heated interview about his Church’s teachings. For many viewers, the ensuing shouting match was their first exposure to "Black Liberation Theology"...

Like the pro-communist Liberation Theology that swept Central America in the 1980s and was repeatedly condemned by Pope John Paul II, Black Liberation Theology combines warmed-over 1960s vintage Marxism with carefully distorted biblical passages. However, in contrast to traditional Marxism, it emphasizes race rather than class. The Christian notion of "salvation" in the afterlife is superseded by "liberation" on earth, courtesy of the establishment of a socialist utopia.

Catholics for Marx [Liberation Theology]
By Fr. Robert Sirico
FrontPageMagazine.com | Thursday, June 03, 2004

In the days when the Superpowers were locked in a Cold War, Latin America seethed with revolution, and millions lived behind an iron curtain, a group of theologians concocted a novel idea within the history of Christianity. They proposed to combine the teachings of Jesus with the teachings of Marx as a way of justifying violent revolution to overthrow the economics of capitalism.

The Gospels were re-rendered not as doctrine impacting on the human soul but rather as windows into the historical dialectic of class struggle. These "liberation theologians" saw every biblical criticism of the rich as a mandate to expropriate the expropriating owners of capital, and every expression of compassion for the poor as a call for an uprising by the proletarian class of peasants and workers.

Rev. Dr. Jeremiah Wright and Dr. William Ayers
are greeted by Rebekah Levin with the Committee
for a Just Peace in Israel and Palestine.

Members of strange or unusual churches need to make clear their position on the relationship of church and state: If they believe in a secular state that upholds religious freedom, what’s the problem? If they believe that the state should legislate morality, then there’s a big problem.

As a rule, Democrats, believing as they do in “social justice,” spill their religious beliefs into government. Republicans are confusing. Some would have the government attempt to implement a social conservative agenda, while others would have the government stay out of people’s private lives. We might suppose that Romney, who is a moderate on social issues, is the latter (a “live and let live” kind of guy). But, it is still necessary for him to address the issue. It is even a good opportunity to speak to the principle of limited government, in economic matters as well as personal matters.

As for one church condemning another, yes, the Mormons describe all Christians as apostate. That is a problem for Romney. Does he agree with this teaching of the Mormon Church? Even if he is a live and let live kind of guy, it is still creepy to think any person in the position of President of the United States thinks the majority of Americans are apostates. Can Romney say that the Mormon Church creeps him out with this doctrine? Can he ask the President of the Mormon Church to get a Word of Knowledge, even to ask all the people of the United States to pray for this, so Mormons can join in communion with Christians?

There is also the racial issue. He has spoken to this in the past, saying that when he was a boy or a young man (I don’t recall how he characterized his age), his family was thankful that the special limitations for black people were lifted by the President of the Mormon Church. O.K., but does expressing this recollection go far enough? Did he think the Mormon Church was wrong in its limitations on black people? Or, did he and does he think that black people used to be inferior to white people? Again, it would creep me out to think that the President of the United States was raised in a church that taught that any race was superior or inferior to another. The Protestant denominations that used to teach such things have apologized for this sin. Maybe the Mormons have. Mitt will have to tell us about this.

Finally, I will mention the polygamy issue. The Mormons used to allow polygamy and, then, after exhausting their appeals to the courts of this country when the Congress passed a law against it, they came down against it for practical reasons, so Mormons could live peacefully in this country. Some Mormons relocated out of the country, so as not to break up their polygamous families. Among these was Romney’s paternal lineage. Romney’s father was born in Mexico and never naturalized upon entry into this country. In my opinion, Mitt is an anchor baby and according to the strictest interpretation of “natural born,” is not qualified to be President. He would also be the first Hispanic President. All that to the side, what’s his position on polygamy?

Was the Supreme Court correct to uphold a Congressional law banning polygamy, where - in the U.S. Constitution - does the Congress get this power? And, how can the government discriminate between polygamous marriages and other forms of marriage? In the famous Texas sodomy case, the U.S. Supreme Court said that the State had no interest in homosexuality; and, Justice Scalia, in his opinion, asks what, then, is the State’s interest in incest, polygamy, and so forth?

Normally, candidates for President aren’t asked about polygamy. But, Mitt, by reason of being the grandchild of a polygamous family that relocated to Mexico rather than conform to the laws of this country, will have to address this issue.

and a little bit, well, weird...

A little bit? These people need to be educated.

0bama will NEVER get my vote.

I doubt that will go very far since Reids also a Mormon....but then the American public can be fickle anyway so who knows how they will take it. We’ll likely hear the same ol’ excuses of why his religion doesn’t matter....unfortunately.....it does in Romneys case. But many won’t consider or investigate it further than the propoganda the Mormons put out there to cover with.

The character attacks on Romney will focus on what critics view as a makeover, both personal (skinny jeans) and political (abortion) … Democrats also plan to amplify what Obama strategists described as the “weirdness” quotient, the sum of awkward public encounters and famous off-kilter anecdotes, first among them the tale of Romney having strapped his dog to the roof of his car.

It's not just his personal weirdness that the MSM (acting in their capacity as handmaidens to the DNC) will go after, ONCE HE'S NOMINATED.

They'll go after the unbelievable weirdness of Mormonism, and they'll spotlight it in a big way, AFTER ROMNEY'S NOMINATED.

During the R nomination process the MSM will be all sweetness and light with regard to Mormonism, and pretend to barely notice it at all.

BUT ONCE ROMNEY IS NOMINATED, the MSM will shine a light on Mormonism, a light of extreme ridicule, that will make it virtually impossible for Romney to win the general election, even if he didn't have all the personal flaws and weirdness that he does definitely have.

So to those of you who say "Mormonism is not the issue" with regard to a Romney nomination, I say to you: you are being played by the MSM.

The recent Warren Jeff thing does not help him either

I don’t think the Mormon Church made Mitt weird. I think he was just born weird.
