“you have started several threads as of late complaining about FR’s treatment of Romney “

I have also started several threads as of late complaining about FR’s treatment of Mormons. Seems they go hand-in-hand and I don’t like it much. In other words, a lot of the Romney bashing is tied to the Mormon bashing and since I am a Mormon, I don’t appreciate it much.

There are two possible reasons for the Dems anti-Romney initiative:

1. They would rather face Gingrich.

2. They are convinced that Romney will be the nominee.

Here is my view:

#1 is not true. They know he would trash Obama in their debates.

#2 is not true but the Dims haven’t figured that out yet.

Seems like some folks don't like Romney as a Mormon, but the vast majority of posters on FR don't like him because he is a flip-flopping RINO who can't be trusted as far as one could throw him.

But you like to pretend it's about his religion, instead of facing the facts about Romney's sordid history.

That is a personal attack and a threat to “spit on you” (me). If you don’t think that’s a personal attack, then there is nothing I can do about it. You hold the power to crush my rights or protect my rights on this site. I personally am offended especially since I have actually been spit on by a Gore supporter during the hanging chad era. You have decided that I should not be offended, that the insult was not directed at me. Since the insult was not directed at you, you need not be offended.

Later in the interview he was heard to say: “And we would sure hate it if they threw us in dat’ ol’ briar patch too.”

Saundra Duffy - removing the first line of the post is called taking the second line out of context. I can read, mind you.

I’m Mormon too, and I can relate somewhat to your comments about the anti-Mormonism that often exists on Free Republic. I have learned to distinguish between comments that are critical of LDS doctrine (which don’t bother me) versus negative comments that generalize about Mormons themselves, such as an opinion that Mormons are dishonest, etc. It is this second type of comment that I actually find hurtful, because these stereotypes don’t usually seem accurate to me, and I tend to feel accused of something bad that I haven’t even done via guilt by association. Having said all this, I think you should take a closer look at post number 10. It is clear to me that the poster’s comments are not directed at you, but are directed at Obama himself.

Romney will try to run a gentlemanly campaign like McStain did. Better to nominate Newt who will taunt, ridicule and criticize Zero everyday until election day. It will be like a daily flogging for Barry. Newt Gingrich will make his life miserable. The public will eat it up just like they do when Trump trashes him.

If it is Romney I hope your dead wrong because god help us if that’s the way he plans to go about it. Your right about Newt. I am a Perry supporter right now but I will not have a problem pulling the lever for Newt.

I am sensitive about being spit on since it actually happened to me at a FReep in San Francisco. Sorry.
