Why wouldn't Romney proselytize given this remarkable opportunity? That's the aim of the mormon church. There are mormon code words in his speech, like "comforter", "mourn with those who mourn"

Wasn't it an Obama staffer who said, "Never let a crisis go to waste?"

And before you start bashing me for my comments, IMO Mitt is an opportunist of the first order for choosing THIS event to covertly make it about his faith rather than about the victims.

Mr. RomneyCARE was wrong.

THIS TERRORIST ACTION WAS NOT A TRAGEDY.

Like the Meadow Mountain Massacre and the 911 Attacks,
it was an atrocity.

He was talking about the victims; but 'we' is a point of reference; without the 'rest of us'; the equation is empty.

Speaking of 'empty'; anyone hear the sounds of 'empty' as Obama, desperately tries to find a 'empathetic' tone; for his words? If you heard only the tone and cadence and only the 'sound' of the words he spoke; one could easily conclude; it was just another campaign speech.

Obama, trying to wax as a 'caring human'; trying to find authentic sympathy; is a 'study' to watch and weigh. . .

I for one am disgusted at the comments found here. I heard his remarks in passing and noted the tone and the presentation were for me entirely appropriate .

“Most of the evangelicals think Mormons are going to hell and they aren’t Christians,” said Clyde Wilcox, a political science professor at Georgetown University who co-wrote “Onward Christian Soldiers?: The Religious Right in American Politics.” “What he’s saying is there is a commonality of faith and shared values.”

That is because they aren’t Christians, we have NO COMMON GROUND faith wise or doctrinally.

Mormonism to Christianity as Hell is to Heaven. More propaganda from LDS, inc.

As Romney so aptly shows, Mormons do believe the Bible to be corrupt, ‘not translated correctly’, full of errors and basically worthless, YET they will quote it when it furthers their goals.

I wonder if Romney said, “families can be together forever, through Heavenly Father’s plan.”

Nothing like a tragedy to help introduce the plan of salvation.

IMO, it was a very good speech. Why do people on FR look for evil in everything Romney does? That in itself is evil. He didn’t make it about “his faith.” Where did he mention Joseph Smith?
