From the article: Picking a Catholic running mate...

Wait a minute...I've been told HUNDREDS...even possibly THOUSANDS of times...that Mitt's Mormonism is irrelevant to the POTUS office...

Why would either (a) some conservatives "hypocritically" deem Catholicism as somehow relevant to the VP office;
Or, (b) Will we see all the "Mormonism is irrelevant" posters suddenly show up on this and the hundreds of other threads to preach their same "religion is irrelevant" message...

Or is Mormonism getting "sacred cow" protection...by those on their religiously hypocritcal bent???

One reason is evidential. The left is screaming out loud!

I love the smell of PANIC in the morning.

"In tapping Mr. Ryan, Mr. Romney, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, has turned the election from a referendum on Mr. Obama's economic record into a choice between two dramatically divergent views of the government's spending and taxes."

Very interesting point about Biden and Ryan both being Catholics. Not that I’m expecting the VP debate to be anything more than a blowout...

In fact I’d bet the Biden people are working feverishly today to reschedule it — for some time in December ;-)

1. Picking a Catholic running mate means that the Vice Presidential debate will feature two people who profess the Catholic faith but who are on opposite sides of life, marriage and religious liberty.

Unintended consequences (I hope):

1. Splitting the Catholic vote

2. Fomenting schism over "what does it mean to be Catholic/Christian in the political realm?" 3. Legitimizing (backhandedly via Biden) "cafeteria Catholics".

Catholics up north need to get a grip of their lives and undersand that being pro fecal sex and killing babies is not Catholic.

Shame how so many call themselves something but ignore what they are supposed to follow.

6. According to Wisconsin law, Ryan can still run for Congress while running as Romney's VP.

Should the GOP lose, Wisconsin could still have him as one of their Reps.

Wouldn't you love to see the Obama and Romney internal polls five days hence? I'd pay the cost of a movie ticket just to glance at them. There will be squarish building components germinating from the backsides of many a Democrat campaign functionary.

The best reasons I can think of are

1. Recent Tea Party success and pressure forced Romney to select Paul Ryan, the champion of fiscal sanity!

2. Obama thought he got away with bich-slapping Ryan around at that retreat and again at a public meeting on Obamacare, where he rudely berated Paul and his ideas.

My libtard friends and acquaintances on Facebook are awfully quiet today. I expect a deluge of posts Tuesday morning after Jon Stewart tells them how they should ‘feel’ about Paul Ryan.
