Bush to meet with LDS leadersPresident Bush chatted for nearly an hour Thursday with LDS Church President Thomas S. Monson about issues including U.S. foreign policy, Middle East peace, the economy and energy, according to White House press secretary Dana Perino.
The Mormon leader also mentioned his long-standing friendship with Bush's parents, Perino said.
The meeting at Monson's office in the LDS Church Administration Building in downtown Salt Lake City began around 8:30 a.m. At about 9:40 a.m., Bush's motorcade emerged from underground parking on North Temple and headed straight for the airport.
The courtesy call was Bush's first meeting with Monson and his two counselors, Henry B. Eyring and Dieter President Bush waves as he disembarks Marine One Thursday in Salt Lake City for a meeting with Mormon church leaders. The president visited Utah for two fundraisers Wednesday on behalf of Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. (Douglas C. Pizac/The Associated Press)F. Uchtdorf, since they were installed in February after the death of President Gordon B. Hinckley.
Monson, who was first counselor to Hinckley in the governing First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was present during 2005 and 2006 meetings between Bush and Mormon leaders. In 2002, Monson joined Hinckley in greeting Bush before he attended the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympic Games.
On Wednesday, Monson, Uchtdorf and Julie B. Beck, general president of the church's women's Relief Society, got a personal tour of Air Force One. "He meets with [the First Presidency] regularly and thinks that they have a good role to play in America, in terms of spreading the word of love," Perino said Wednesday. "I don't think the president would ever pass up an opportunity to meet with the president of the Mormon church." pstack@sltrib.com

Well we have the biblical evidence for that:
Acts 21:8
And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came ( unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him.
lol. I think there were eight dwarfs. They always forget “Sleazy.”
Why post to me about that guy? I never mentioned him. And, you’re right...the teflon mormons ALWAYS return.
You said: Are you suggesting that Frank Fantasia is not a good faithful Mormon?
I have no way to know. I am sure he “tithes”. I just know that in my life I have come to know quite a few LDSers and, while I disagree with their theology completely, have never heard anything that bazaar.
But hey, every faith seems to have their “outliers” *wink*
Is that what it is!
So you just signed up today to tell us this?
Did I meet you a few months ago but than you were a writer for your high school news paper!:)
Frank Fantasia
I cannot even comment on this.
Wow! That article lays it ALL out. I had no idea that both Scowcroft and Leavitt and others in the two Bush Administrations were Mormons. Or that J. Edgar Hoover’s first agents were all Mormons.
Yeah, nice coincidence there. When did OMM finally get the boot? Did he threaten anyone else with legal action for annoying him?
Frank has left the building.
Recall the article was written in 2004...how many more since then?
I don’t think the two are the same person...one can’t string together more than 10 words in an insult, much less post reams...;)
The ZOT regarding Anti-Mormon nonsense!
