US NEWS AND WORLD REPORT SMEARS PALIN SUPPORTERS

Mormonism in general isn’t seen as a “Christian” religion, for the simple reason that momons do not believe Jesus is the son of God, and do not follow his gospel.

Total BS on points one, two and three.

Some fundamentalist wackos believe thus, but anybody who can read can quickly find out the falsity of this statement.

We had this discussion before. It was Mormons themselves that told us what they do and do not believe. Obviously, they believe the blasphemy of Joseph Smith's 'book of Moroni", not the Gospel(word) of Christ.

A baptist and a Catholic follow the same thing- the Gospel. It's the church theology that differs.

Your last statement isn't even relevant to the issue.

Nope. Total TRUTH on ALL points.

Pick up a Gospel and go sit in the Mormon church and FOLLOW it then. Ot Try to, before your are tossed out.

What's surprising is that some of the comments appear to be from pro-Sarah Palin conservatives. They're a likely preview of what a Jindal primary faceoff with Palin or another Christian conservative might look like, with both vying for conservative Christian support.

BS, I say! Lib infiltrators pretending to be Palin supporters to try and stir up trouble between her and Jindal.

I’ve read it all.

Your book of Baloney is just that. Joseph Smith did not stumble upon some golden plates on top of a hill, and receive a contradictory “Gospel” from God.

Joseph Smiths Bookof Moroni is NOT the Gospel of Christ, even though you are taught to believe it is.

This jerk is trying to drive a wedge between Palin and Jindal and he can forget it. This was tried last year too. These a##holes wanna stick us with another McCain in 2012. Not happening.

BINGO!

Why any political conservative would talk to, much less want to read or take seriously, U.S. News and World Report is puzzling. That rag is totally in the tank for Obama and the Democrat party. Lame attempts by these lefty rags to sway current or potential Republican voters into thinking Palin or Jindal are losers is pathetic and definitely won't work a second time. No more RINO presidential candidates!

Surprise. Surprise. Does TeamROMNEY's attacks on Gov.Palin, her children, and her supporters EVER END?
Apparently not. Connect the dots......
Dan Gilgoff is yet another Romney supporter,
off the bench and in to attack Gov. Palin this month, for backstabber Carpetbagger RINO Mitt Romney.
There are enough attacks against Gov. Palin that this effort is directed from somewhere (p < .0001)

Dan Gilgoff: "Bobby Jindal, Catholic, Draws the Same "Secret Muslim" Allegations That Haunted Obama"
February 24, 2009 - I'm surprised that a few comments on my post about Bobby Jindal as the new face of
Christian conservatism allege that he's got ancestral Muslim roots, in addition to the acknowledged
Hinduism of his Indian born parents.
Remind you of any other recent rumor campaigns against promising young minority politicians?
What's surprising is that some of the comments appear to be from pro-Sarah Palin conservatives."

BZZZZZZT: The Real Deal is otherwise.

Dan Gilgoff, May 8, 2007, "A seat at Romney's table"
"If the next Republican to occupy the White House must follow that same strategy,
Mitt Romney, former Massachusetts governor, may be in much better shape than polls suggest.
..At last week's debate, Romney went furthest in speaking the language of the Christian Right, ...
Romney's also meeting with evangelical leaders,
even sending them wooden chairs mounted with plaques declaring,
"You are welcome at our table anytime."

"Gilgoff: Bigoted Redneck Evangelicals Stopped the Nomination of Marvelous Mitt
.... I’m so offended at the suggestion of Dan Gilgoff in USA Today
that the reason that Mitt Romney lost is because we Evangelicals just couldn’t bring ourselves to vote for a Mormon.
I’ve followed the national conversation among Conservative Christians about Mitt Romney.
Little of it centered on his Mormonism, much more on the fact of his shift on the issues."

Dan Gilgoff Romney propagandist: "("A Massachusetts Conservative," U.S. News & World Report, 2/12/07)
Romney ... (w)ith a Democratic-controlled state legislature, he managed to
balance the budget without raising taxes."
[Romney called the tax increases "fees", and even raised them in NH !!!]

Joe Scarborough is yet another Romney supporter,
in to attack Gov. Palin this month, for backstabber RINO Mitt Romney.

"Pat Buchanan asks Ziegler who were the main culprits in the media attack against Palin,
and Joe Scarborough interrupted Ziegler and would not let him answer!"

"Scarborough: Romney Won Debate"
"Mitt Romney Absolutely Dominated"

"Joe Scarborough losing more and more sleep over McCain
"John McCain is ruining Joe Scarborough’s life. Joe can’t sleep or eat.
His man Romney is now showing 15 points behind McCain nationally.
Joe is sick over it. How could the good republicans of this nation vote for such a liberal.
He aims to do something about it. He doesn’t know what yet, but dammit,
Romney is going to be President if he has his way about it. He knows the real Mitt.
He knows Mitt simply lied to get elected in MA. He doesn’t know why he lied, and he doesn’t care."

More dots...... Carol Platt Liebau is yet another Romney supporter,
in to attack Gov. Palin this month, for backstabber Carpetbagger RINO Mitt Romney.
"Mitt Romney has been the most consistently excellent debater overall in the two meetings of the Republican candidates.
He is personable, clearly well informed, incredibly well-funded, and surrounded by a crack staff.
All that, taken together, goes far to explain why his numbers in Iowa -- and elsewhere -- are looking better and better."

"But the other candidate who's very compelling is Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney."

Even more dots...... Douglas Kmiec is yet another Romney supporter from the Romney Keep,
in to attack on the GOP, for backstabber Carpetbagger RINO Mitt Romney.
"Romney supporter turned Obama man Douglas Kmiec indulged in quite a litany of name-calling,
finger pointing and demagoguery against the GOP that would have been amazing from the same man only one year ago.
Kmiec has shown that he no longer cares much how he is viewed, going full Democrat Partisan at this point."

"Kmiec was named by Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney
to head the Romney for President Committee on the Courts and the Constitution in 2007."

Surprise. Surprise. Connect the dots......
Cal Thomas is yet another Romney supporter,
in to attack Gov. Palin this month, for backstabber Carpetbagger RINO Mitt Romney.
"Cal’s Surprising Suggestion: ‘I Wish The Palins Would Leave The Stage For Awhile’"

"Romney obviously hopes that a growing number of Americans
accept the view of Cal Thomas, a popular journalist and an evangelical."

"Writing in his syndicated column, Cal Thomas commended Romney
for standing "on principle" and putting "more noble things ahead of self-interest." "

Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney

Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?

Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?

Romney Supporters Trashing Palin

Romney advisors sniping at Palin?

Similar to Romney's other scortched earth tactics:

Novak: Fred Thompson drop-out rumors traced to Romney campaign

Said Novak: The rumors were "traced in part to Mitt Romney's campaign,
trying to stir up strife between McCain and Thompson."

"Despite outspending his rivals by huge margins throughout the primaries,
(Romney) lost Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Florida and California.
The only primaries he won were in Michigan, where Dad was governor; LDS states;
and a few states on Super Tuesday in which his California-obsessed rivals
couldn't spare the cash to advertise.
Only John Connolly in 1968 had a worse cash-to-delegates ratio.
And John McCain rightly did not like Romney's tactics during the primaries.
(W)hen (Romney's early leads) started slipping away, he resorted to unfair,
distorted, scorched-earth negative ads, betting that his opponents couldn't
afford to spend enough for the truth to catch up to his charges."
[Romney: A Mistake for McCain, 7/23/2008, Dick Morris]

Yes, but Jindal still embraces many of the religious customs of his parents, who were Hindu. The point is, Jindal is NOT Muslim. Never was.

Many Americans have this notion that “muslim and Hindu” are races, as opposed to religions, so in the racial context, Jindal is Hindu.

So Gilgoff’s Romneyite?????? I didn’t know that...thanks for pointing it out. Makes perfect sense considering how Romney and his people operate against their rivals.

That’s exactly what it is. They play dirty.

Um, he was born and raised in Baton Rouge.

And he’s a Roman Catholic -— he took a lot of family heat for becoming one, too.

Thanks for that info. I had heard rumors that Romney was behind some of the attacks on Palin, but didn’t realize it was this extensive.

Excellent material. Proves my point completely.

The “Bashing Romney’s Mormonism” is just another divisive tactic of Romney and his team to sideline true Republican conservatives.

Romney is a “blue” Republican, A RINO.

FYI, this may be worthy of a “Roman Catholic” ping, but I leave that to Roman Catholics:

Governor Bobby Jindal’s Catholic Christian Journey
7/31/2008
The Deacons Bench (deacbench.blogspot.com/)

Mr. Jindal, a convert to Roman Catholicism, is being mentioned as one of John McCain’s top choices for the Republican vice-presidential nomination.

NEW ORLEANS (The Deacons Bench) - He’s been mentioned on the short list of John McCain’s possible running mates. And now Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal is getting closer scrutiny from the media.

The Wall Street Journal recently looked at his remarkable faith journey:

“In 1988, 16-year-old Piyush Jindal totaled his father’s new car a few weeks before graduating from Baton Rouge High School. Piyush — who then and now prefers the nickname “Bobby” he adopted from “The Brady Brunch” sitcom — had to assess more than fender damage with his parents.

“Which God do you have to thank for your safety?” Mr. Jindal, now governor of Louisiana, remembers his mother, Raj, a practicing Hindu, inquiring after he escaped from the wreck. For the child of Punjabi immigrants who had announced his Christian beliefs the previous summer, the question was difficult.

Twenty years later, Mr. Jindal, a convert to Roman Catholicism, is being mentioned as one of John McCain’s top choices for the Republican vice-presidential nomination. And his strong religious faith is often cited as a potential bonus for the ticket.

Hinduism is a diverse religion, with varying interpretations. Mr. Jindal, speaking from his office in Baton Rouge this month, said his parents raised him “in a monotheistic home with a firm belief in a God with traditional values — the same sort of values you find in the Ten Commandments and other mainstream religions.” Recalling their religion as “not a faith that was necessarily tied to a particular historical scripture or revelation,” Mr. Jindal said, his parents “made their faith their own.”

It is rare for Hindus to convert to Christianity or any other religion. According to a survey released by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life earlier this year, eight in 10 American Hindus who were raised in the faith remain so as adults.

“I did not have an overnight epiphany like so many people do,” said Mr. Jindal, calling his conversion a “very intellectual-based journey,” where he studied countless religious texts. “Given my background and personality, that was an important part of the process.” But, he notes, “I don’t think you can ‘read’ yourself into faith. I had gotten to the point where I knew what history had to say about this person named Jesus and what he had done on Earth. . . . I think at some point you have to take a leap of faith.”

As a teenager, Mr. Jindal said he sought out chaplains at nearby Louisiana State University as he grasped for a religious identity to call his own. During a youth group’s Easter season musical production in 1987 at LSU’s campus chapel, a black-and-white video of the Passion played during intermission. “I don’t know why I was struck so hard at that moment,” said Mr. Jindal.

“There was nothing fascinating about this particular video. . . . But watching this depiction of an actor playing Jesus on the cross, it just hit me, harder than I’d ever been hit before,” he said. “If that was really the son of God, and he really died for me, then I felt compelled to get on my knees and worship him.”

“It was liberating,” said Mr. Jindal about his moment. “Up until that point, my prayer life was like a child talking to Santa Claus — making deals with God saying ‘I’ll be good, but this is what I want in return.’” Soon after, Mr. Jindal began to pray and fervently read the Bible, principally parables in the New Testament. “It was like the words were jumping out of the page. It was literally as if it had been written just for me,” he said.

Yes, but my main point is that he stems from East Indian HINDU roots. There is no “Muslim” affiliation whatsoever.

Anyone can look up his biography and see that he is NOT Muslim, that his ancestry is East Indian Hindu.

Gotcha.

Interesting story. Confirms again that Jindal is NOT a Muslim.

Wow, I’ve been a mormon my whole life and was always tought that Jesus Christ is the son of God and we should follow Him. hmm...According to you I must not have been listening correctly, thanks for telling me what we really believe.

Jindal is not gonna bite on this crap. He’ll yield the lead to Palin when the time comes unless she doesn’t want it. In any case, those two are the future of the conservative movement in America. Nobody is splitting them or us. Ain’t happening.

Pawlenty is a non-starter. Palin or Jindal—they are the future of the conservative movement in America. They know it, we know it, and nothing is gonna stop it.
