Here’s the quote: In obedience to the Judeo-Christian Scriptures, most South Carolinans and I have a sane and healthy homophobia, while Mitt Romney has a very bad case of homophilia,” said Mills [...]

A recent article entitled ”GOP Rivals have Different take on Mormonism“ highlights Romney and Huntsman as being polar opposites in how they practice their Mormon faith.

There are quite a few Republicans running in the 2012 race now, and I’ve heard rumors of Sarah Palin throwing her hat in as well. However, as of this week (8-25) I think the major three candidates are: Romney, Perry, and Bachman. Therefore, I’ll include the charitable donations of each of these candidates, all of [...]

A recent article titled “Pawlenty video aimed at Mormon faith of Romney and Huntsman” caught my eye a couple weeks ago. The article made it sound like Pawlenty is slamming Romney and Huntsman because of their Mormon beliefs. When I watched the video, it didn’t seem like Pawlenty was doing anything other than describe his [...]

With Jon Huntsman stepping down a couple weeks ago, there has resurfaced the debate of whether or not Mormons should be in the White House as president since it appears that both Huntsman and Romney could probably be U.S. Presidential candidates. In this online discussion, one reader lays out the covenants Mormons make in their temple to give [...]

I was very excited overall for the elections this year. It was a breath of fresh air to see people get elected who have a passion for freedom and less government intrusion in our lives. It was great to see the electorate as a whole speak up with their votes. I felt the same way [...]

Some have come to their bishops seeking assistance to pay for house payments, car loans, and utilities.

This is somewhat older news that came out a month ago and somehow I missed it. This is a video of school children chanting a “praise Obama” song mentioning that “black or white we’re all the same in his sight.” Also there is a clip of the kids singing a “praise Obama” song with the [...]
Al Gore would be a Good Mormon
Posted in Politics on November 4, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Glenn Beck was poking at Al Gore the other day for being insincere because he eats meat. When Al Gore was confronted about this, his response sounded very similar to the LDS’ “Word of Wisdom” revelation. Along with not drinking alcoholic drinks, the revelation admonishes LDS memebers to eat meat sparingly and eat a lot [...]
