“Neither Romney’s dad nor his grandfather were polygamists.”
Romney doesn’t -practice- polygamy but it is illegal so of course he doesn’t. That doesn’t mean he wouldn’t SUPPORT it if he was faced with pro-polygamy legislation in this time where homosexual “marriage” is being legislated on a monthly basis.
It could be advanced in a matter of time, on the same grounds as sodomite “marriage”. What would Romney do if faced with legislation championing polygamy as he once was faced with gay marriage as Mass Governor? Where would his sympathy lie? Well, he’s a high Mormon Elder, so let’s see what Brigham Young had to say on the matter around the time the Supreme Court struck it down:
“Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned; and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given, and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.”
-Brigham Young - JoD 3:266 (July 14, 1855)
I would not be surprised to see a President Romney appoint court judges sympathetic to the LDS beliefs (pro-gay and hence pro-polygamy and liberal, anything goes judges).
He said in this campaign that he “would be “true to his faith”. His FAITH is pro-polygamy. Just because the courts forced his forefathers out of the nation to practice their abominations - and forced those here to CEASE the practice - doesn’t make them any more anti-polygamy than they were then.
Romney is and would be a traitor. I will not vote for a proven liberal traitor. I will vote for a conservative, little known though that conservative may be.
The establishment hijackers can kiss my ass.
Sweet! I'll go down and try to hunt up a few more wives. I mean if one can make your life a living hell, 8 should should just be...errr....better.
I’m pretty sure Congress would have something to say about any legislation making polygamy legal. Romney can’t single handedly make it so.
Do you see Congress advancing such a thing? Is there such a strong polygamy lobby that they’ll feel compelled to cave to them?
