HAS MITT ROMNEY BEEN A DOUBLE-TALKER ON HOMOSEXUAL ISSUES, ABORTION AND PORNOGRAPHY?
THE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE WORKER ^ | 12-05-2007 | GARY GLENN

Posted on 12/09/2007 10:41:23 AM PST by carolgr

What is the definition of hypocrisy? Is America being poisoned with the “Biblically incorrect” cancer of double talking “politically correct” politicians? Gary Glenn is the President of the American Family Association of Michigan. Personally speaking, as an individual citizen aside from the AFA Mr. Glenn has put together an eye-opening information piece relative to Gov. Romney’s “faith in America” speech.

………………………………………………………….

Gary Glenn, for purposes of identification only, president of the American Family Association of Michigan, offers the following comments prior to Gov. Romney's "Faith in America" speech...CONTACT: Gary Glenn 989-430-0652 (cell)

Americans concerned about protecting life and traditional family values can only hope that Romney's faith will inform him differently than it did during his earlier political and business activities.

Actions speak louder than words, and Romney's past political and business activities are a far more trustworthy measure than any campaign speech of whether the faith he professes is likely to have much if any influence on his future behavior.

Romney's record of passionately and convincingly advocating for abortion on demand and homosexual activists' political agenda, while personally profiting from the sale of hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of pornography, makes clear that his faith had little discernible influence on his past political and business activities.

Mitt Romney's credibility problem is not that he's Mormon. It's that politically, on core values such as protecting life and traditional family values, he hasn't been Mormon enough.

That's the basis on which most Americans are likely to judge him negatively, not on how his religious beliefs compare to other faiths, but that his politics haven't been true to the cultural values widely associated with his own faith.

Willard used religion to distract from his
nanny state, populist, socialist past.

I call it fraud!

Any candidate can be cherry picked on what he believes in, what he did etc. etc. The bottom line to me is, which candidate(s) can defeat the evil Democrats. And the answer always comes back, Mitt, Rudy or Fred. The candidate who definitely CAN’T beat the Democrats is the Huckster, and for some strange reason, he seems to be surging.

Because the fact is, anyone who the Democrats put up will be far worse for this country then any of our candidates.

I can’t believe the Republicans will nominate Romney, or Giulani, or Huckabee (or Paul). Who does that leave? Thompson.

Could it end up at the convention? Maybe.

I don't suppose Gary Glenn is any relation to Glenn Beck.

Glenn Beck is scheduled to interview Mitt Romney this evening. Since Beck is a convert to Mormonism, that may be a set-up for softball questions.

Romney was once on the Board of Directors for Marriott. Marriott offers adult films (pay-per-view) at their locations.

good post, with one exception.

Fred, and even more unfortunately, Duncan Hunter, can't seem to energize Republicans. If you can't energize your own party, how are you going to energize an electorate?

Folksy is not going to get you anywhere in presidential politics. This is the Big Leagues, down in the mud, slug it out politics and no-one fights dirtier than a Doomacrat. And Fred isn't inclined to do that, and I say that with great disappointment.

Romney showed that he is Presidential in speaking with conviction and passion.

Sadly, for the "all or nothing gang", you better have been a conservative from the womb to now because there is no room for a change in philosophy.

But the question is, how many of us have not changed in our beliefs? Whether it is recognizing the omnipotence of the Almighty, recognizing the sanctity of life, or recognizing that Government isn't the solution.

I really know nothing about Mormon beliefs, but I’m curious since I thought that Mormons were socially conservative and Romney certainly could not be considered to be so prior to fairly recently. Does anyone know what the LDS Church has to say about abortion, homosexuality, etc.?

Oh geez. What next? He’s owned a Ford car and therefore is gay?
