Given the over heated rhetoric of late, occasioned by several prominent Evangelicals endorsing (gasp!) a Mormon for President, I thought this analysis, coming from an Evangelical ethicist was very relevant to the political discussion going on here on FR about Mitt Romney. The author's views stand in stark contrast to the breathless hyperbole we have heard of late with charges of Socialist, Communist, Stalinist, dictator, destroyer, deceiver and worse that have been coming from a small group here on FR.

Ain’t that the truth? It’s somewhat understandable given Republican betrayals on immigration and other issues but, jeez!

The immigration issue is such a mess. In these post 9/11 times we have three GOP candidates supporting amnesty: Rudy, McCain and Huckabee.

And yet you’re the one hurling invectives like “sleaze” here.

I am not opposing Governor Mitt Romney based on his religion. We are not electing a pope, prophet, pastor, rabbi or imam, we are electing a secular president of our nation. Governor Romney clearly has years of fantastic business and organizational experience, and if that were the only criteria, he would be my hands-down favorite. If he had governed Massachusetts in a conservative manner, I would be a staunch supporter. He did not. We can ill afford obvious RINOs like Romney, Huckabee and Giuliani when we face a House run by Nancy Pelosi and a Senate where Harry Reid rules the roost. We need a man like Fred Thompson, who can go to the people, explain the path we need to take, and convince them to call & write Congress, like President Reagan did. Many here say that Fred Thompson is no Ronald Reagan, and they are both right and wrong. No one duplicates another human being, but Fred is as close as we’re going to get to Mr. Reagan in this generation.

Pro-Willard posters are cited for lies about other candidates every day.
Sleazy.
Then there are the pole-dancing posts involving Thompson’s wife.
Sleazy.
And the “trophy wife” comments; and the vulgar songs about Fred and Jeri Thompson and beanie weenie.
Sleazy.
I could go on and on and on.

article: "Republicans can get surly with candidates other than their favorite at this stage of the primary season."
Gee, Mr. Reynolds, ya think? LOL.
Maybe the writer is a FReeper.
Pre-primaries get so militant. Like a bunch of little hit-and-run commando raids on the other candidate camps. It's so tribal. Look around at FR if you need proof.

Some of my friends here on FR feel that I've turned against them simply because I support a candidate they don't like. Now they act like they're my enemy and like I'm their's. It's weird. This is just one election and there's so much more to life and conservative activism than the primary election for president.

Gregg reminds me of some of the more unhinged posters on FR who suffer from severe cases of MRDS (Mitt Romney Derangement Syndrome).

Mr. Romney is on the right side of many positions, he just hasn’t been there very long.
I still couldn’t vote for a man who believes he is a god, will someday rule his own planet, and his wife will continue to have multitudes of babies to repopulate the planet.
Just think for a moment about these nutty, false beliefs from the Mormon cult before you REALLY consider voting for Mr. Romney.

Jackson: A disturbing sign of the state of American evangelicalism has appeared in the seventh year of the 21st century in a Townhall.com article
Shouldn't that be "21st century Anno Domini"?
He manages to be both medieval and a pretentious ass (donkey) in just one sentence. What an idiot. I know better after one sentence than to listen to anything so inflated a writer might say.
I agree entirely with the writer in his comments on Jackson's bizarre attack on Grudem and Romney. I think the Mormon-bashers should be dragged to this thread forcibly, kicking and screaming, and forced to debate every portion of this article. But I think you'll find this is a thread that the Mormon-bashers won't want to visit because it shows them for what they are: small-minded religious bigots that harm our party.
I think it's fine to prefer another candidate or to oppose Mitt because you don't like his record or have trust issues with him, whatever. But this religious bigotry that we've seen on thread after thread is disgusting. And it harms our forum far more than it hurts Mitt Romney's chances to become our nominee.
