I wonder how much of Mitt Romney 's charity was to LDS?

Why would she wonder that, one might ask? Well, you see, lefties are evidently completely out of their minds. As Twitchy reported, the first bout of liberal outrage after Romney’s tax information was released was that he paid too much in taxes. No, really. Now, they must be humiliated by his incredibly generous charitable contributions. You see, Romney leads by example. This does not suit.
Plus, as we know, it is the Left that is full of anti-Mormon bigotry. So, the next unhinged outrage?

I give it till Monday for the press to say Romney's charitable giving was all to the Mormon Church. Then: they go after Mormonism.

Left criticizing Romney charity to Mormon church. Obama gave almost $54K to Jeremiah Wright's church 2005-2007. Jeremiah. F-ing. Wright.

Romney’s staggering charitable contributions do not count. Because, Mormon church. Or something.

I really wish news organizations would quit lumping Romney's LDS tithe in with his "charity" contributions. Not quite the same thing IMO.

any story that talks about Romney's charitable contributions as if the Mormon Church were a real charity is misleading its readers

@badler So if you give to your church which runs a soup kitchen, that's not charity?
Ben Adler@badler
@mattduss right. stories about how Romney gives generously to "charity" when it's mostly to Mormon church are BS

.@max_read because if theres one thing the right supports unconditionally, it's charity
tyler@vazqueztyler
@pushinghoops @max_read most of romney's charity goes to the Mormon church too. "I only care about poor people with the same god as me."

I presume that the $4m that Romney gave to 'charity' was simply money he funneled into the Mormon Church?

Romney giving charity to the Mormon church is like Diddy buying all the Ciroc at the club. that money is going right back in his pocket.

romney is only incredibly generous if the majority of his charitable donations doesn't go to his church (which are mandatory)

RT @badler: Romney donating to Mormon church is like donating to an ideological 501c3 think tank. Fine, but it doesn't prove generosity.

Romney giving 10% of his ill-gotten income to the church is called a "Tithe". It's REQUIRED. Not charity in any way, shape or form.

Romney deducts his 10% tithe to his church. BFD. Can I deduct $ I give to my family. #not charity

Zing! Bingo.
This is all they have and it’s easy for them to hop right on that train, being anti-Mormon bigots and all. And, clearly, not knowing the meaning of charity and giving. All they do is take.
Harry Reid is a super devout, super devoted Mormon,just like Bishop Romney is, they are both Temple Mormons, which means that they both comply with the required funneling of personal funds back into the cult.
what does that have to do with Romenys donations?
Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.
See post 9, and know that Christians will continue speaking out on Mormonism.
Got it.
They think abortion clinics/free condom dispensers, and the bank Maxine Waters’ husband works at are charity.
