“I’m not running as a Mormon” - Sure we will all just ignore that little detail…

“Mitt takes the gloves off” and politico.com, Romney became aggressive with staunch conservative Mickelson after some back and forth.  Here is the transcript of that discussion: Video can also be seen hereMickelson: “I hope we can do this so we can expend some quality time on here rather then the sound bytes.”

Romney: “No, I don’t like coming on the air and having you go after me and my church.”

Mickelson: “I’m not going after your church, I agree with your church!”

Romney: “I’m not running as a Mormon, and I get a little tired of coming on a show like yours and having it all about Mormon.”

Mickelson: “See, I don’t mind about it being all about that.”

Romney: “I do, I do.”

Nobody is going to vote for a Mormon in a national election anyway…. oh, get a grip people you know I’m right, I always say what others won’t.
I checked out this PBS documentary on Mormons and there was one section that talked about excommunication and how people who would question the Mormon faith would basically tell anyone who would dare question doctrine to “get the fuck out” you can’t be part of OUR religion anymore. Forcing family member to shun each other because some brainwashed old white guys could maintain control over the flock.
Free thinking is strongly discouraged.

Again, Romney is a non factor in the race, but I find it interesting that he would be upset that individuals like me want to focus on his religion. A religion basically pulled out of one dudes ass with a history of racism, subordination of women and isolationist tendencies and you want to be president representing ALL Americans? Plez!

In case you did not know…..

From Brigham Young
Journal of DiscoursesShall I tell you the law of God in regard to the African Race? If the White man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God, is death on the spot. This will always be so.

Cain slew his brother. . . and the Lord put a mark upon him, which is the flat nose and black skin.

You see some classes of the human family that are black, uncouth, uncomely, disagreeable and low in their habits, wild, and seemingly deprived of nearly all the blessings of the intelligence that is generally bestowed upon mankind. The first man that committed the odious crime of killing one of his brethren will be cursed the longest of any one of the children of Adam. Cain slew his brother. Cain might have been killed, and that would have put a termination to that line of human beings. This was not to be, and the Lord put a mark upon him, which is the flat nose and black skin. Trace mankind down to after the flood, and then another curse is pronounced upon the same race–that they should be the “servant of servants;” and they will be, until that curse is removed.

Just as I said about Ron Paul, racists are automatically disqualified from running for public office, “but Snoop Romney doesn’t believe that, Mormons are not like that anymore.” C’mon, ole Snoop is not boo boo the fool, any good PR effort can burry crap like this and help an institution put on a more public friendly face.
You can’t be part of a religion that taught this racist crap for many years and all of a sudden say, “never mind, Negros are good people too.”

Sorry I’m someone who looks deeper at issues than most folks, I’m just wired that way.
