Bill Maher on Friday evening once again displayed a level of ignorance and intolerance that should completely disqualify him as a political commentator.
On HBO's Real Time, the vulgar anti-theist said Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney doesn't give to charity. "All his charitable donations are to Mormons. He gives to his cult. That’s not a charity. They're not poor people" (video follows with transcript and commentary, serious vulgarity warning):
http://www.mrctv.org/embed/112327
S.E. CUPP: Let's make the distinguish though, just real quick, between Mitt Romney the person and Mitt Romney the politician, because Mitt Romney the person has donated millions of dollars to poor people.
BILL MAHER: To Mormons.
CUPP: To poor people.
MAHER: Not poor people. No, no, no. Wait, wait, I gotta call El Toro Poo Poo on that one.
CUPP: Yes.
MAHER: All his charitable donations are to Mormons. He gives to his cult.
CUPP: So what?
MAHER: So what? That’s not a charity. That’s not a charity.
CUPP: So we can’t help certain poor people.
MAHER: They're not poor people.
CUPP: Yes, they are.
MAHER: Name one poor Mormon. Alright, I’ve got to move on.
Now watch one of the most shameless liberal shills in the nation - someone completely comfortable with lying on television without batting an eye to promote his agenda! - actually disagree with Maher and agree with Cupp:
PAUL BEGALA, DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST AND CNN CONTRIBUTOR: The church does do a lot of good. The church does a lot of good for a lot of poor people.MAHER: That is some serious El Toro Poo Poo. That is some El Toro Poo Poo.
CUPP: So we're judging charity now based on religion?
MAHER: I don't really think you should judge charity. I don’t think giving to opera is charity either, or giving to Cornell which has plenty of Uncouth Sexual Reference money and never needs any…
CUPP (Who also went to Cornell University): Plenty of our money.
Now watch another liberal expose Maher as being a selfish, greedy millionaire:
ANDREW ROSS SORKIN, NEW YORK TIMES: Are you a giver?MAHER: Never.
SORKIN: Never. Okay.
MAHER: Why should I be? They have a giant endowment - as does President Obama.
Yes, they have a giant endowment because people give money to them. That's how you get an endowment.
But Maher as usual was demonstrating that his ignorance on a variety of subjects knows no bounds.
Observe Romney's charitable giving as reported by the Christian Science Monitor in January:
While Romney is not thought of as a great philanthropist, his rate of giving is considered high. For example, in 2010 he gave $2.9 million or 14 percent of his income to charity. A typical person gives 2 to 3 percent of their income. And people who made $10 million or more typically gave 6.5 percent to charity, according to Roberton Williams of the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center in Washington.
“Romney’s rate is very high,” says Mr. Williams.
Part of the reason for the high rate of giving is Romney’s contributions to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as the Mormon church. According to the church, members are expected to tithe 10 percent of their income. In Romney’s case, in 2010 he gave $1.5 million, closer to 7 percent of his adjusted gross income. In 2011, he gave $2.6 million, or 12.4 percent of his income.
But Romney and his wife also gave a considerable amount of money – some $1.5 million in 2010 and $500,000 in 2011 – to other charities, mainly through the Tyler Charitable Foundation, apparently named for a street Romney and his wife lived on in Belmont, Mass. In 2010, the foundation had more than $10 million in assets.
In 2010, the largest beneficiaries of the Tyler Charitable Foundation included the Mormon Church ($145,000), the Friends of George W. Bush Library ($100,000), and the Center for Treatment of Pediatric MS ($75,000). However, the foundation also made contributions to organizations including the US Equestrian Team Foundation ($10,000), Harvard Business School ($10,000), and Homes for Our Troops ($20,000).
As is plainly evident, Romney doesn't only give to the Mormon Church as Maher ignorantly claimed. But even if he had, like most churches, Latter-day Saint Charities gives substantially to the poor:
Latter-day Saint Charities helps people become self-reliant and improve their quality of life through initiatives such as clean water, health, and food production. Latter-day Saint Charities also relieves suffering by providing life sustaining support during emergencies...100 percent of all donations go to help those in need. No administrative costs are deducted by LDS Philanthropies or our affiliated charities
LDS Charities actually has six charitable categories:
Click on any of those links and you'll find tremendous services for the poor.
Mormon.org elaborates:
Much of what is done in the Church is to bless and help those who are not Mormon. The Mormon Church has donated more than $1 billion in cash and material assistance to 167 different countries in need of humanitarian aid since it started keeping track in 1985. Many of these countries have few to no Mormons, but are also non-Christian. More than 53,000 Mormon missionaries serve through the world today. All of their service is to help those who are not Mormon. Joseph Smith himself taught that we are "to feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to provide for the widow, to dry up the tear of the orphan, to comfort the afflicted, whether in this church, or in any other, or in no church at all."
As such, Maher was 100 percent wrong - AGAIN!
I do so wish they'd make a LIST of the things that are
1. Ignorant and...
2. Intolerant.
What's a poor, unknowing soul to LOOK for in these writings?
Maybe he was trying out for a Living Prophet® gig!
(Refer to #5...)
In conclusion let us summarize this grand key, these “Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet”, for our salvation depends on them.
1. The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything.
2. The living prophet is more vital to us than the standard works.
3. The living prophet is more important to us than a dead prophet.
4. The prophet will never lead the church astray.
5. The prophet is not required to have any particular earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject or act on any matter at any time.
6. The prophet does not have to say “Thus Saith the Lord,” to give us scripture.
7. The prophet tells us what we need to know, not always what we want to know.
8. The prophet is not limited by men’s reasoning.
9. The prophet can receive revelation on any matter, temporal or spiritual.
10. The prophet may advise on civic matters.
11. The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich.
12. The prophet will not necessarily be popular with the world or the worldly.
13. The prophet and his counselors make up the First Presidency—the highest quorum in the Church.
14. The prophet and the presidency—the living prophet and the First Presidency—follow them and be blessed—reject them and suffer.
I testify that these fourteen fundamentals in following the living prophet are true. If we want to know how well we stand with the Lord then let us ask ourselves how well we stand with His mortal captain—how close do our lives harmonize with the Lord’s anointed—the living Prophet—President of the Church, and with the Quorum of the First Presidency.
Ezra Taft Benson
(Address given Tuesday, February 26, 1980 at Brigham Young University)
I just HATE when that happens!!
No; SIR!
We are NOT attacking MORMONs!
Any place that a MORMON has the nerve to start spouting any of their HERESY will turn in to a BASH.
Bold
ANTIs
Spotlighting
Heresy
Sorry...this is a completely ludicrous statement.
This is ludicrous from a sheer budgeting and Mormon numbers' angle.
Of the 14 million Mormons, up to almost 9 million of them are either jack Mormons or are not your "weekly" Mormons. That takes the reality that 1.7% of the U.S. is Mormon -- and knocking that down to about .75% of the U.S. who are active Mormons...and are oft more overwhelmed than your avg. religious person due to the lay callings, temple rituals, genealogical research, and larger families that make up active Lds clans.
Of those 14 million Mormons, about 1.75 million are in Utah. (Utah has over 2.8 million pop; and 62.2% are Lds) So I would say almost 1/5th of active Mormons are based in Utah. They have marginal coverage in many states...and 21 canneries in the Eastern United States. Outside of Utah, Lds, Inc. has 73 canneries in the U.S....that's an average of less than 1.5 cannery per state (minus Utah). Source: http://www.providentliving.org/location/map/0,12566,2026-1-4,00.html
There's no way -- with the $ that the feds throw @ programs -- that a scattered Mormon approach averaging 1.5 canneries per state can even come close to matching the feds, especially when you take a closer look @ the locations of these canneries and see that many are missing from obvious key urban areas all over...
Oh, sure, you can easily conclude that the Mormons get more bang for the buck...are more efficient...and may even -- per cannery -- do better than the average fed-funded food kitchen...but so what? You're indicating privately-run programs beat out a fed bureaucracy probably every time?
Duh. If that's what you meant to say, to win the weekend Captain Obvious award.
They largely focus on stocking Lds families' pantries; as church leaders encourage them to keep a 2-year supply of food.
Indeed, the poor wind up benefitting -- because of the waterfall of always restocking according to can dates.
But that waterfall charity is home based; not Lds canneries...Obviously some Lds canneries food makes it directly to the poor...but that's not what these were designed to do.
Mormon propaganda? Pro-Romney? There are 14 million Mormons in the world. What do you have against Mormons?
Sources and funds for humanitarian work
All of these initiatives require manpower and while there are some full-time employees in administrative and clerical functions, there are also thousands of volunteer humanitarian missionaries. In emergency situations, local members and full-time missionaries who would normally devote their time to proselyting will participate in relief efforts, but in many of these more permanent initiatives the LDS Church uses Senior Missionary couples.
These couples are retired members of the LDS Church who devote six months to two years of their time to go anywhere in the world, typically at their own expense, to participate in these projects. Because of this volunteer force, the LDS Church is able to use 100 percent of money and goods donated in helping those in need. These missionaries often serve in activities related to their former profession. Doctors and nurses will serve medical missions either in the Neonatal Resuscitation programs or special missions to countries in need of dentists, eye doctors, surgeons and so forth. People with agricultural or engineering backgrounds will serve on the clean water initiative or else help farmers in developing countries.
Other members who are still working and raising families frequently donate time, money, and in-kind donations to help in these ventures. Members can volunteer at local canneries and farms to help produce food for the needy. They can volunteer to create the medical kits needed for doctors and new mothers in developing nations and many help make blankets for needy families. Many of these local initiatives are organized by the Relief Society. This volunteer force allows the LDS Church to reduce operating expenses and serve more people with their resources.
From 1985 - 2009, $327.6 million in cash and $884.6 million in commodities of aid was given throughout 178 countries
If you gave Maher an enema, you could fit him in a pill bottle. The man is a bitter little pill.
Good people don’t go to heaven. Only saved people.
We’ve know all along that the liberals would have a field day with Mitt’s religion and they wouldn’t even have to tell a single lie to do it. Just quote mormonism’s own sources.
Hebrews 9:27(KJV)
It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
If I were a MORMON; the following would SCARE THE HELL out of me!!
"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.

Elsie, didn't you spend time in that region?
But then; that would be repeating a BUNCH of lies!!
The MORMON apologist frantically leaping from one faltering piece of MORMON 'fact' to another; trying desperately to avoid a hoard of Flying Inmen in pursuit!
(Evidently her rental car had a locating GPS system on it; from the clues given in the article.)
Lucky (or blessed) is the operative word, as ANY small misstep could twist an ankle, and, with no help, alone, remote, you could end up in a Hillerman book like Fallen Man.
Beautiful countrey out there around Escalante and Calf Creek (Make the hike upstream to the waterfall for a VERY refreshing dip in the pool. No ledges to climb; either!)
And, though it ain't that good THUNDERBIRD coffee, Kiva Koffeehouse can't be beat for location, location, location!
SL Tribune story said she was a BYU student forty years ago. Made an assumption she is Mormon. And she didn’t stop here for coffee.
I think a 59 year old going out on a hike alone says a couple of things; she is either very ugly or very stupid.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
I believe in our Constitution and the right of people to exercise their right of the free exercise of religion. I don't know what religion you are nor do I care. Your obsessive hatred of the LDS is not what this country is all about. I will reiterate that I view the LDS as a force for good in this world.
As far as incorporation is concerned, you don't seem to understand the legal reasons for doing so. Many religions have done the same thing, including Catholics.
A History of the Legal Incorporation of Catholic Church Property in the United States (1784-1932)
I’m sorry to be vague in my comments. I meant that he (maher) just gave a mil to his cult (church of obama).
I don’t see anything wrong with growing up to be a Romney, but then I also don’t condemn people for their beliefs.
“There are 14 million Mormons in the world. What do you have against Mormons?”
They are spreading a false Christianity. Not simply a different spin (like Baptists, Methodists, Roman Catholics, etc.). They are not remotely “Biblical Christianity” and they utilize flim flam tactics to spread their “false gospel.”
Ultimately, true Christianity saves a soul from hell - the purpose of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, God the Son. False Christianity not only prevents salvation, it does so pretending to be the real thing. I call it chocolate covered poison. It looks like candy, but it will kill you. It is an insidious danger and evil. Open evil, AKA Mr. Obama, is easily recognized by anyone with remote wisdom. Insidious evil, AKA Mormonism & Mr. Romney, look good and fool many to there destruction.
The founder of Mormonisn, Joseph Smith, was a early 19th Century equivalent to L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology. Both men were consumate flim flam artists. I’m amazed that any would be so unwise to be fooled.
So you actually want to try and assert the false notion that I was condemning the young men or Milt Rominy with what I posted? ... Of course we can now accept that you feel the antichristian blasphemies in MormonISM are of no importance, perhaps not even antithetical to Christianity, which the founders of MormonISM claim to have ‘restored’ because ALL of Christianity was in apostasy. Do you also do your dainty laundry by hand?
Unless you are an atheist or agnostic, there are many who would disagree with your religion and its tenets. Presently, Mormons are not committing acts of terrorism or killing those who disagree with them. In fact, they are engaged in charitable works here and all over the globe. Can't we just adhere to the First Amendment and allow people the free exercise of their religion?
Hey!
I had a dog with me; and I am BOTH stupid and ugly!
ELSIE can do as he pleases, and all you can do is whine about someone hating you.
Too bad that your chosen religion is so lame and weak.
While...
I will reiterate that I view MORMONism as a force for EVIL in the next.
Then I guess you'll be the FIRST on FR to either affirm or repudiate the QUOTED statements made by MORMON leadership in post #53.
Nice qualifier!!
Who's stopping them?
We ARE sticking to the First: exercizing OUR freedom of speech to point out the HERESY that calls itself MORMONism.
YOU are not trying to abridge MY right to do that; are you??
“Presently, Mormons are not committing acts of terrorism or killing those who disagree with them.”
Well....Leading someone to hell is equivalent to killing them in my opinion. Besides, you asked me what I had against Mormons. I told you, but you wouldn’t accept it. Sorry, but I happen to hold very strong Christian convictions. Mormonism is NOT Christian. It is a pseudo-Christian Cult.
Look, I’m NOT advocating suppression of Mormonisn by force or law. The First Ammendment stands.
However, I will NOT give them a free pass on their lies to propagate as truth...and I WILL NOT help them get one of their own in the White House so he can use it as a means to evangelize for Mormonism - your a fool if you think he will do otherwise.
The founder of their cult, Joseph Smith, always wanted to be POTUS. Romney is just an extension of him. Smith was one of history’s greatest liars and frauds. Something Romney has proven to be.
Like I told you....STOP POSTING PRO-ROMNEY NONSENSE ON THIS FORUM. ROMNEY IS COMPLETELY TIED TO MORMONISM. So, your “favorable” posts about Mormons is just a backhanded way to endorse Romeny.
Ask Mr. Robinson if that is OK? This is supposed to be a Romney free forum!
I am not nor have I ever have been a Mormon. You have a real problem.
You are entitled to whatever biased, twisted views you might hold. I don’t agree with them. We will simply agree to disagree.
I suggest you acquaint yourself with the posting rules on FR:

STOP POSTING YOUR RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY UNDER THE GUISE OF ATTACKING ROMNEY. THE MORMON CHURCH IS A FORCE FOR GOOD IN THIS WORLD.

Coffee is served for all makes and models including FReepers using women’s names.
Never knew any dogs that drank coffee though. Well......Maybe.
Please see posts 86 and 89.Will you be massively zotting for the religious bigotry of hate posted? Are the band of bullies that promote your FReeperthon and or all that agree with you lock in step; exempt from the posted forum guidelines and rules? Are you aware that there is a group that flame and control the forum in a way so vile that I think they are DU sleeper trolls?
If Romney were Catholic would this type of religious bigotry stand; or be zotted?How is Romney any LESS of a reformed RINO than Gingrich? The official Romney issues page leave Romney about identical with Gingrich.Romney is much more conservative than he is portrayed. He was dealing with a complete Democrat legislature in liberal MA.
A reformed RINO is a reformed RINO; don’t judge the results of issues by a religion most are ignorant about that will have nothing to do with Romney as POTUS.You keep stating no abortionist statist.Yet you stood by while this forum destroyed pro life candidates- Perry,Bachmann and Santorum all under the guise of Palin was there first and ‘could’ be running.
In a previous post you used the term PDS.What if I were to call you ‘deranged’ because I do not agree with your position of enabling Obama with Romney hate.You show hate for Romney beyond any past PDSer. As the so called PDSer’s did not hate Palin they just did not think she was running or was positioned to.
Is this article allowed to be posted on FR?

How'd you find I out is a model?
I've never said so.
Ok; I'll tell: think BEFORE pictures...
My!
The demons are having a hissy fit this morning!
I suggest you buy your OWN server and build a Love_For_Romney website that will counter Jim's.
I personally know that you could get up to a theoretical 14,000,000 folks to join in the singing of Mitt's praises.
Don't make me post: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k49/jacksparrow_012/last_great_act_of_defiance.jpg
Hey folks; LOOK!
A free-range, no hormones, rBGH-less MORMON defender!
Totally rogue; totally bad.
Mess with MORMONs at your own peril.
Will defend MORMONism's 'right' to say nasty things; yet will chide and scold any others if they do so.
Thank you.
I really didn't think that someone would try to stifle my right to speak out about the HERESY that is MORMONism; esPECIALly on a website named FreeRepublic!
Kings 18:27
"Shout louder!" he said. "Surely he is a god! Perhaps he is deep in thought, or busy, or traveling. Maybe he is sleeping and must be awakened."
THE MORMON CHURCH IS A FARCE FOR GOD IN THIS WORLD.
“STOP POSTING YOUR RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY UNDER THE GUISE OF ATTACKING ROMNEY. THE MORMON CHURCH IS A FORCE FOR GOOD IN THIS WORLD.”
NO IT IS NOT!
Also, standing against falsehoods and outrights lies (even those done for “religious” reasons) is not bigotry. Don’t play the “bigotry” card...it is ever bit as bad as playing the “race” one. Have you no same.
Also, stop lying about not being a Mormon. You either are one or have some form of close ties. I can recognize a deceit when I read one’s posts.
Romeny’s religious beliefs are fair game. I have laid off anti-Mormon posting for quite awhile...because I avoid the “religion” forum. However, with Romney attempting to seize power, using all means of deceit and chicanary...consistent with Mormonism. Mormonism will be on trial as well.
And you ARE using it as a means to backdoor a Pro Romney agenda. Have YOU no shame!
If you call a tail a leg, how many legs has a dog? Five?
Only four. Calling his tail a leg doesn't make it so.
Likewise, your ACCUSATIONs of bigotry will have to have SOME evidence, as the prosecuting attorney's yelling and shouting is NOT convincing the jury.
