No, I have NEVER given $ to Barbara Boxer or ANY Democratic candidate...

Ok, thank you for clearing that up.

The question is more why you believe such utter nonsense from a highly questionable source who makes up stories wholesale

The source isn't highly questionable to me. That's why I asked you the question in the first place. All you had to do was say no.

and why your supposedly “holy” Mormonesque ethics allows you ... by innuendo & outright falsehoods to continue to engage in disseminating false gossip ...please repent

Your hypocrisy is truly amazing. You speak of innuendo and and outright falsehoods and in the same sentence you use phrases like "Mormon Klan". We all choose good or evil in this life and we'll be judged for it in the next.

It is a commandment by Jesus Christ my savior to not hate or speak evil of another person. Therefore I'm not going to do the same to you that you've done to me.

You speak of repentance. Yes we both should repent every day. I pray the Lord Jesus will show mercy to us both.

But there's a foundation there for such phrasing. It's not developed out of thin air. And, at least I can cite Mormon leaders who've established that foundation...unlike your innuendos & false gossip derived from lies.

Just yesterday I finished reading the second half of a Deseret Book. Co published book (1972; original 1950)...As you know, Deseret Book Co. is owned by the Mormon Church...'Twas a book by Lynn A. McKinlay based upon a series of four lectures delivered to The Young People's Temple Group of the South Davis Stake (Bountiful, Utah). In his lecture to the Bountiful Second Ward Chapel (8/12/49), he stated:

"The distinct physical characteristics of the Negro race, the Yellow race, and various nationality demarkations, [sic] no doubt did not exist in the pre-mortal spirit life, because we were all children of one Father and a Mother in heaven." (p. 174)

Let's unpack this quote, shall we?

The implication of such a statement is that the fair, delightsome & white unnamed entities who allegedly appeared to Joseph Smith in the "first vision" gave birth in "the pre-existence" to spirits who, altho having no mortal bodies, whatever "spirit body" traits existed, these traits certainly weren't "negro" or "the yellow race" [whoever that is].

See, McKinlay says, in effect, we "pre-existent ones" were all children of one Kolobian Klan -- one Father and a Mother. There couldn't possibly be heavenly traits of what we see in these other races, could there? (Implies this Mormon leader)

(1) Where does your precious Mormon church get off publishing this kind of tripe crap?

(2) Why is it when I consistently read Lds authors who want to talk about unrevealed aspects of the Mormon "pre-existence," they try to justify such wild speculation with words like "no doubt"? (as McKinlay & other Lds authors do) It's so highly unusual for a church claiming to be guided by "direct revelation" to have its authors speculating "no doubts" about the pre-existence!
