Now you want to confuse Martin Luther with 1978 America, Jim Belushi, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, the Village People, and ‘Happy Days’ and ‘Mash’ and and Mitt Romney as a 31 year old Priest, businessman, father of four, son of a Mormon Bishop, and member of a famously devoted Mormon family, teaching racist Mormon doctrine?
You really want to pretend that this is some ancient history, that Mitt Romney as a Missionary, teacher, and Priest, soon to be Bishop and then Stake president, and as a member of perhaps the most dedicated, powerful Mormon families of all, is not to be personally tainted with this?
Did you stay silent during the time that Martin Luther was compiling these writings and distributing them? Of course not, you were not alive.
If Mitt had objected to the racist doctrine he could have objected to them before 1978. He didn't.
LOL
There dont you feel better now that you managed to root out aq premise on which to satisfy your own excuse for supportin gthe liberal Willard ???
I warn you that Obama knows about your boy Wee Willie and you pretend I am aware of this because I support Obama...
Kid major fail...
If I with no funds and a bit of research can find out a little bit of your boy Wee willies sordid past what do you think Obama will be able to do with his connections and his healthy purse and the last 5 years to accomplish it ???
Is that your fear ?? that Obama knows more about Willard than I do...
Well he does Im sure...
The fact that Willard was a grown man of 32 and married with several children and had been a member of a white supremist religion that openly practiced racism will not have escaped hime ...
You can abuse me till the cows come home but it wont change anything...
we warned you for 5 years that Willard was spoiled goods but NOOOOOOOOO you have to elect himn as the GOP-e candidate and then demand we all treat him like the second coming...
Not even a nice try RomneyBot...
WHOA! Michelle and part of Obama come from a line that WERE indeed victims for hundreds of years...that is NOT true of mormons.
they take their vacations to expensive resorts at taxpayer expense, and wear very very exclusive designer labels, and hobnob with the rich and famous in Hollywood?...and you're saying that the Romneys do not? They certainly hobnob with the rich, if not the Hollywood famous...yet.
What other church has a priesthood except Catholicism? I know that a lot of Christian churches have women elders, deacons and pastors.
Do you have a date on that march with Dr Martin Luther King ???
and do you have a source for your allegation ???
Only Mitt has had the power and position of a Holy Bishop, and the power to Excommunicate, and has sought the permission of his Holy Prophet before running for president.
Mitt Romney is truly a "mover and shaker" in his cult, the highest "mover and shaker" that America has ever seen running for President.
Ann Romney's parents were not even 'pure' enough to witness her wedding to Mitt Romney, or to even enter the building, they were were forced to wait outside.
While there may be some Canadian 'conservatives' who would walk hand-in hand with the NYT in this matter I am not aware of them.
And what that has to do with the US election?
The 'that' you posit has little to do with it.
The 'that' of the NYT attacking Romney as racist juxtaposed with 'conservatives' doing the same
has everything to do with the US election.
As I said, I had every expectation that the left
would attempt to paint Romney as a racist member of a racist church,
I am only taken aback by the zeal of some 'conservatives' in joining the attack.
But as you infer, my opinion counts for little.
Would your interest be as high if he were say...Baptist?
It is clear that you are ignoring the facts that are being posted about the actual reality of his religion and his participation as a leader and teacher within it.
Mitt Romney is not some guy who merely went to church and sat with the rest of the audience, Mitt could excommunicate you.
This from the mostly, if not all, white New York Times?
Bishop George Romney as a politician made that march, as he watched black Mormons being sent into the draft, being inelegiable for the church issued deferment that became of such importance to his son.
*””Though not specifically invited, Romney June 29, 1963, joined an anti-segregation march through the fashionable Grosse Point suburb of Detroit, saying “there is an excessive amount of discrimination in housing. ...””
A couple of years later, George Romney was calling in thousands of Paratroopers from the Airborne Divisions, to help him with those people of Detroit.
I don’t care whether a particular religion has a racist past. I only care how Mitt himself has behaved. Unless you can prove to me that he is racist (based on something other than being Mormon) none of this is relevant.
I am already tired of it. I don't care any more if somebody is supposedly racist, sexist, or homophobic. I will vote for whoever seems like he would succeed in shrinking government and lowering spending, without any regard to how the candidate feels about blacks, Hispanics, or women.
His religion, unless it promotes decapitating, is of no interest to me.
What is of interest to me is the survival of the US as founded.
Where citizens rule over the government, not as the subjects of government
as envisioned by Obama and the left.
Where the individual is sacrosanct and the collective has meaning only as the expression of the will of a free people.
The primaries are over.
Do as you wish... but for America, the world and freedom's sake,
I implore you, don't facilitate Obama having four more years.
and who gives a shite....
i could care less
lots bigger issues sitting on our windpipe than who was a racist in the past
I mean really...on a conservative forum?
bleating about past racism?
i'm more worried about who is a racist now...
which means most minorities if we were being honest...as whites lie prostrate getting whipped
I am sick of it...you folks are out to lunch.
God bless Dixie and screw self righteous race baiting freepers
The New York Times?...hide yer head in shame
Also, the Romneys presumably pay for their own vacations with money earned by Mitt Romney. Mr. and Mrs. Obama vacation like billionaires on our dime. BIG DIFFERENCE!
The point is not MY proving anything...the point is that the opening gun against mormon racism has been fired by the NYT.
And that means what to me? In Jesus time until only very recently, Jewish women were segregated from the men in the synagogue and could only advance so far up into the temple. Make something of that.
