Mitt Romney is a card carrying dyed in the wool Mormon, but that also makes him a strong believer in doing whatever it takes to get what he wants, even manipulating the press, "lying for the Lord", feigning his manly hunter prowess, or denying his own faith and background in the LDS church. He comes from a long line of men who have been carefully conditioned to manipulate words and even practice such "faux paus" as what he did in correcting his words. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the word Osama and Obama SOUND similar but it does take a lot of effort and careful practice to reform the word Barack Obama in that same reference. There is no doubt he worked hard on this reference, twisted it, and will now feign just as unbelievable an apology.
As a former Mormon I recall many many lessons on doing just this. From the teachings that blacks and other people of color will become "A white and delightsome people" when they become Mormons, to revisionist history in many other issues the Mormons, especially the hierarchy and leadership, reflects the extent they'll go to to deny, distort, cover up, and manipulate the information. Mitt Romney is a 6th generation or more of this kind of practice. Don't doubt for a moment that he knew what he was saying, doing, and how he'll use such little things to try to whittle away at the opponent.
When he spoke out to Larry King about how he thought there was nothing more horrible than Polygamy, then told the Newsweek reporter that he was a member of a Judeo Christian religion, and much more are all reflections of his willingness to minimize his religious background, deny his own culture and faith, and jettison loyalties faster than grease through a goose. I too think Polygamy is horrible, but as a former Mormon, I would not deny my own heritage in something that the bulk of the people believed in and supported, even if I did not agree. I too would not be too excited about calling myself Mormon if my actions did not reflect the teachings of the Church's doctrine, but he claims to be one of the good ones. To call himself a member of a "Judeo Christian sect" is akin to denying his own faith. The cock will crow twice more and no doubt Mitt Romney will deny his own faith at least that many more times before the years up. He makes me sick, not just as a devious Mormon, but as a human being.
The Southern Carolinians and Bob Jones University officials, Born Agains, and other so called Christians who are willing to sell out to support "the best of the worst" are going to get exactly what they deserve if they continue to support this charlatan. He'll be as easily swayed and disloyal to them and their bigoted narrow causes as he is to his own faith and family. This guy is a puppet and a joke. Stick him in the window of a department store with a nice suit and shove your hand up his arse to make him say whatever you want him to say. He's what those out of the church call a Mor-bot, a McMormon, a figurehead. I'm embarrassed to call him American. ashamed that he is a reflection of the Mormon Church (even though I don't like the doctrine), and ashamed that he's still part of the human race. In two years he'll be the butt of jokes whether he succeeds or not. America, do not make the mistake of letting another Moron, Mormon, oops, member of THE Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints rise to power. If I've offended anyone, I sincerely apologize. (if I nod my head and slightly close my eyes and use that sing songy voice, does it make it sound more sincere?) Excellent... you are all now placated.
