Mitt Romney continued a long tradition of Mormon intolerance this week. Firstly he lied and cheapened his own religious beliefs by claiming that Mormons believe there is validity in the "symphony of religion", including the disparate houses of Pentecost and Islam. Is that why Mormons baptize Jews after they have died? Secondly he threw enlightened people and secular people under the bus by presuming that they would destroy freedom given the opportunity to lead our nation. For more on this topic please watch this debate between a logically and historically challenged Dinesh D'Souza and a drunk Christoper Hitchens.

ha. the d'souza-hitchens debate is a great watch if you like seeing d'souza whine like a little lassie while hitchens punds him while pounding bourbon.
D'Souza got shagged.
Who would you prefer? It's YOUR choice: Rudolph is a Neocon who wants to increase the size and scope of Federal government and continue to bankrupt the US. Ron Paul wants to reduce the size of the Federal government. But Dr Paul knows that can't be done overnight. In fact he wants to make sure we meet all of our social obligations, by taking the $1 trillion we spend on foreign adventurism and military conquest each year and use it for social obligations at home, rebuilding our infrastructure, and paying down the national debt. The only Republican candidate to think that way. War yes, if Congress declares it - that's constitutional - but otherwise no. The idea is to pare down the Federal government role slowly - when the worthy programs and causes have sufficient funding from state or private sources. As such he is the candidate for both the poor and middle income persons. The only ones who would lose out by a President Paul would be the Neocon world empire people who want to spread goodness around the world from the barrel of a gun, the rich who make their money when the Fed prints dollars out of thin air, and Rudolph.
Dear Paulbot,
As previously advertised, I support John McCain. Failing his ascendence to nomination I will fund either Paul or BarackStar. Or both.
ELTB
Right, ELTB, we are all just "bots"; it couldn't be that so many people support the non-establishment Ron Paul. Give up McCain now. He is part of the problem. Paul wants your support. Don't wait for the old establishment candidate to flame out before you do what is right. Do it now. Paul for President.

"Mormon intolerance"? Seriously? Did you listen to the speech? Romney flat out said that his religion is his business and religion should not be a test for public service. That's not the position that other Republican candidates take. Look at Huckaboom. Or the current White House. Romney probably is the least intolerant. That's necessarily the case because Romney is in no position to be intolerant, since his religion is followed by a small fraction of the public. Get a Christian in office and see how intolerance really works; they can afford to be intolerant -- in fact, the idiot vote loves such intolerance by religious Christians.
Romney is the future. He's smart and successfully has founded and ran successful organizations. Bain Capital did pretty well in Romney's hands. So did Staples and Dominos Pizza. And Massachusetts had a balanced budget under Romney.
Great pix of the Doublemint twins. Who is that freaky old guy?
Pault, I was going door to door for Harry Browne before I could even vote, I am well aware of the benefits of libertarians in office. At this point I believe leaving Iraq at once is a bad decision(regardless of whether it was right in the first place). I also believe that returning to the gold standard will result in greater pricing discrepencies for the value of the dollar than are currently exhibited in the floating value regime.
Anonymous, as a secular person I believe that Romney showed tremendous intolerance to my beliefs even you must agree with that.
