ParticipantObama's ego can't handle it no matter what.

ParticipantYou guys miss the point. He's not running for president. Mitt is. Mitt is the Mormon remember?
How is whether Mitt is a Mormon or not relevant to whether he deserves to be elected? The way I see it, the Mormons are for the most part a moral upstanding group, way better than the type of "I say I am Christian but really atheist" type like Obama or most other liberals. I don't have to agree with his theology to agree with his basic moral values.

ParticipantThat's cool, but I believe Mormonism is evil and inspired by the devil. I see them as no different than satanists. A cult is a cult IMHO.

You still did not answer my question.

Yes I did. He's a brainwashed Mormon cultist. That should more than disqualify him.

I've discussed with you your feelings about Mormonism as being a disqualifier for office, so I don't need to revisit that per se. However, I have not actually heard Romney talk about his feelings on religion. We all know that some people are Christian, Jewish, etc. but are lukewarm about it. In other words, you might not know it if the topic did not come up. What if Romney were a lukewarm Mormon? Would this change your opinion about him, or is any Mormon - from diehard believer to the weakest of worshippers - unfit for office in your opinion?

One doesn't achieve the rank of high priest in the Mormon Church without being devout. So lukewarm he is not.

ParticipantThen I guess a Scientologist would be right out in your opinion huh? 😀 Why and how is Mormonism a cult? It is not strictly Christian, but I don't think it descends to the level of cultism.

I did not know that. Perhaps it was based on his otherwise high political profile? I dunno.

Scientologists are just as bad if not worse. Mormonism is a cult because it based in satanic ritual created by a prospector turned prophet.

ModeratorIs anyone watching the RNC?Thoughts?

KeymasterI watched some of Mike Huckabee's speech. Pretty good from what I saw.

ParticipantI have been following the highlights but not watching in real-time. To be honest, I am more excited about the pending start of college football than I am about politics. I have decided how I will vote and it is certain nothing the President says can change my mind.

ModeratorWent to bed during Huckabee.Saw McCain's speech. Although he made some good attacks on Obama, he concerns me. I am totally against his stance on getting the job done in Afghanistan. What would McCain like? More of our guys murdered by the Afghans they trained? Get our guys out of there now!!! Maimed and dead soldiers are not worth the sacrifice for a toilet bowl like that country is and always will be. Afghanistan is not Iraq. After reading Condi's speech transcript, I wish I stayed up for that. Maybe youtube will have her and Ryan's speeches later. Also saw part of Ann Romney's speech Tuesday. Very well done.

ParticipantI don't like how they handled the Ron Paul delegate issue. Way to alienate a large portion of the base.
