    ROMNEY has flip flopped on every major issue. THIS IS A FACT. The older voter in FLORIDA will give McCain the VICTORY because he is honest. McCain was outspent by Romney nine to one. THE older voter in Florida just did not trust ROMNEY. I am looking forward to his complete defeat next Tuesday. THIS IS GOING TO BE A FACT. MY STATEMENTS ARE BACKED BY FACTS AND HAVE BEEN proven to be accurate and fair.

      AS YOU CAN SEE ROMNEY HAS BEEN DEFEATED> HE just wasn't HONEST. BOTTOM LINE.

      Romney flip flops - weak pro choice to strong pro life - he openly admits he has changed his view on this.

      McCain - says he support tax cuts but was one of 2 votes (on the Republican side) against Bush's tax cuts

      I could go on and on. But the reality is Romney is honest, he admits his mistakes and is willing to admit and publically acknowledge when he changes his mind. Morality, honesty and diplomacy have been ingrained in Romney since he was born.

      I have never heard McCain say publically that he made a mistake or did anything wrong. He excuses infidelity to his wife as being young, (he was 40 years old) and feeling like he was 25. He just this week changed his position on taxes and aborotion with know real explanation. He excuses his dishonorable acts in the Navy and tries to make them appear honorable because he was questioning unecessary authority. Well sir I am sorry, I went to the Naval Acadamy too, and there are good reasons for learning to be subject to authority and not put your platoon at risk by being a Maverick. He has used the words "tar baby" in public addresses and when asked to apologize tells those around to "get a life" If MCcain is nominated heaven help the Republican Party. I am not a huge Rush Limbaugh fan, but I side with he and Shawn Hanniday on McCain - McCain will implode if he is President so we can only hoper for a great Vice President or perhaps another Harvard Law graduate to win - no not Romney, Obamma.

    Mormons say they believe in Jesus but the Jesus they serve is not the Biblical Jesus. The Jesus of the Mormon Church is the brother of Lucifer. Jesus is a spirit child of God the Father and a heavenly mother by physical union. (sex) Jesus was born a child and through obedience to the Laws became a God, therefore Jesus has not always been God. Jesus' shed blood on the cross does not atone for all sins, but there are certain sins that the blood of Jesus does not atone for. Jesus after He was crucified and raised to life married three women and had offspring.

    Mormons say they believe in God the Father but He is not the same One from the Bible. Mormons believe that God the Father was once a man who became a God. Mormons believe that God the Father had a father, and his father had a father, an endless progression of Gods. That means God has not always been God, but the Father was at one time not God by nature.

    Mormons say they believe in the Trinity but their definition is different. The Mormon Church teaches that the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit (Trinity) are three different Gods. Mormons believe the Trinity is one in purpose not in nature.

    Mormons say they are the only true Church. The Mormon Church teaches that they are the only true Church and that all others are the Church of the devil. They may not say this to you but they do teach this.

    Mormons say they believe in the Bible. The Mormon Church teaches that there are 4 holy books. These books are: the Book of Mormon, the Pearl of Great Price, Doctrines and Covenants, and the Bible. The Bible in the Mormon Church is least looked upon for doctrine and theology. Mormons are taught that the Bible is correct as long as it goes with their theology. If the Bible contradicts what the other 3 books say or their theology, than the Bible is wrong according to the Mormon Church.

      In response to HollyRoller:

      Very interesting comments. I have lived 37 years as a Mormon. I attended 3 hours of Sunday Services my whole life. Completed 4 years of daily seminary study. Served an 18 month full-time mission teaching others what we believe. Worked at the Missionary Training Center for one year teaching and training other missionaries. I taught a Seminary Course for 2 years and have taught and served my whole life in leadership positions in almost every organization within my church.

      I find it VERY interesting that you know MORE about my Church than I do! Maybe you should read some of the literature published by our church instead of what is published by people who are seriously prejudiced against it! You could start at Mormon.org and LDS.org If you can set aside your biases you will be amazed at how Christian and Biblical our beliefs are.

    Wow- I have to hand it to you holy roller! you get funnier and funnier every time you post something. That is, your material. You, yourself though, have been driving me nuts for the past few months with your never-ending supply of non-pertinent, bitter remarks. Do you need a job? or is someone already paying you to fabricate whatever you want as long as you distort the LDS doctrine in every way imagineable? Wait, wait- are you a $ guzzling preacher who spends the rest of the week blogging anti-mormon junk hoping to increase your sparse attendance? That just seems pretty desperate. like your facts.

    i wish I knew where you lived, so I could bring you over some food, show you I don't have horns, help you find a real job, and share with you the purpose of life and actual mormon theology. Despite the mean and bizarre things you say, I would want to be your friend. People like you tend to need them the most.

      The fact is Morman theology would be great to study. But most mormans don't understand it themselves. Im not trying to belittle you or anyone in your faith. And I am not saying your a cult. But I would sit down and read some history books not written by mormans. History is based on the authors opinion, so just try looking at someone elses.

        Enter Your Comment Interesting: When Mitt Romney and I or anyone who attended schools such as Notre Dame, Harvard or Stanford , went to school, it was required we take World History and Religion, To graduate we studied theologies of the World. In my case I had to memorize certain pharses for the Constantinople Creed. To say we are uneducated about world religions in an interesting comment. If you ever attended a Mormon Church - you might be suprised to find our course of study one year in Sunday school to be the Old Testament, the next year it would be the New Testament - of course we do rotate to the Book of Mormon which we believe to be another testament of Jesus Christ. I have close friends, and college roomates who are Hindi, Buddests and Muslims as well as all of the Protestant faiths. I love them all as brothers. It is appalling to me that anyone would knock another persons sincere religious beliefs. This goes against everything I know that is good. Our constitution forbids it, my parents would not stand for it and I get sad when I see religious persecution. But in fact you Shane have the right to your opinions. When you generalize that "most mormons don't understand Mormon theology" I just take issue with that. Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints(Mormons) are pretty much like any others who belong to a particular denomination. Some are extremely active intheir religion, some are less active and some have grown cold towards their beliefs. Generally as a member of the Church with some ecclesastical responisibilites, I find that of the 200 adults in our congreation, almost all of them (over 80%) attend all of their meeting and sit through regular study on the scriptures we study from which include the Old and New testament and the Book of Mormon. I invite to take a test. Attend LDS meetings somewhere for at least 8 weeks with an open mind and see if you don't witness a variety of opinions and some friendly debate on different points of religion that gives opportunity for open discussion and learning. You can do this and be fair or make general statements about something you really don't know much about. You be the judge, but in any event I wish you the best on your quest for the truth and the true meaning of life.

      Oh, wait....maybe the author of this article is the same as this Holy Roller clown. A downright Romney hater, probably because he's a downright Mormon hater. (really, the prejudice against Romney here is pathetic). And what a great way to pass on what you REALLY wanted to write when the editor would never approve it (of course), because who woud fall for it? That could explain the excessive amount of commentary from H.R. every article! ha. I should get back to real life. what a waste of time reading these things.

      Enter Your CommentEddie, do you really believe this. You are right some but not all of the companies Romney acquired and turned around had to downsize to survive. It would take along time but just start with Domino's Pizza - How many jobs were saved by turning this company around and saving jobs - when this company was on the brink of bankruptcy. No one likes to lose their job, but the honest in heart know that it is better to save a company that can recover and grow and eventually hire more people even if means trimming off the deadwood locations that through no fault of their employees generally have to be cut back. Say what you want about Romney but he has saved thousands of jobs for every 10 that were cut and that is a fact!!!!

  • Posted By: templebox @ 02/01/2008 12:49:17 AM

    Interesting - you say McCain has a moral compass. How can a person with his admissions to a life of immorality be praised for having a moral compass. google "McCain and Ross Perot" or McCain on "Wickipedia" to get the truth. However you may be one of the majority who feel immorality is a pre-requiste for the whitehouse.

    Hmmm... If you don't want to make friends with polititians how are you going to govern? As I recall those politians are our elected officials and represent us. As to changing positions, I am pro choice, I am a republican and I can't for the life of me think of a more fundemental moral issue. I respect both sides of the this issue and one that has little to do with good government. So when your passionatly held values are as changable as Romney's how can you trust him in any thing he says. I have to Give McCain this, his stance on the war has been consistant, no change in his moral compass. We have to choose a president and when you pick the man at the helm for the next four years pick one that has a moral compass that doesn't change with the political wind. Pick one that can work with other elected officials, because Mitt said it... he doesn't want them as friends.

    Romney's record is a liberal one, in a liberal state. Point of fact.

    Now this has just turned into a spam fest, it would appear that holyroller and eddiewhere arent even reading what anyone else says. Come up with some thing new guys. It would appear that eddiewhere is only using Mccain talking points; information that is distorted and taken out of context, or is just purely "hypotheticaly-stretched" lies. Romney is clearly one of the most successful business men in the country, and did his best in one of the most liberal states in the union; which includes working with Kennedy and Kerry (situation as seen in a conservatives point of view). So please, dont take things out of context. Here is my last post if you didnt get to read it.

    "Comment: Anyone can state something, say something, or substantiate somthing; but it does not make it true. This is a political forum; please stop spreading your hate, rumors, conspiracy theories, and lies. You are only hurting yourself and your cause, so please....... :inspecific "holyroller". Get a life please; you really need to find something else do when all you find yourself doing is saying anything, doing anything, or trying anthying to break down, lie, and belittle someone for their own beliefs. How Christ like is that? Or maybe you dont think you are lieing; in that case; you are just missguided, and bigoted. Your opinions are yours to have, but the same goes both ways. This forum is about a man's qualifications for president; if you dont have anything to say that truely pertains to that... you can leave."

    PLEASE READ:
    DO US ALL A FAVOR AND IGNORE HOLYROLLER'S POSTS.

    He's really sad and lonely...he seeks your company by drawing you into a contentious debate. He tempts you and baits you into angry, hate laced conversations. You walk away wishing ill feelings towards him. Sound familiar?

    He needs folks to respond to him to feel important. Don't oblige. No hateful lie he tells about the Mormon church can actually make it true. Folks who already dislike Mormons will be inclined to agree with him and not listen to a thing you say in defense. People with a sense of decency and any intelligence will dismiss him and his comments for what they are.

    On with the POLITICAL discussion. Cheers.

      OOOH. Good one! I especially like the 666 at the end. Nice touch. Since you hint to a hidden Mormon agenda, I'm going to let the cat out of the bag, right here and now. The truth is that mormons do in fact have a secret, hidden agenda. In fact it's so secret that we only talk about it while we're awake, and rarely talk about it while we're sleeping (unless we're talking in our sleep of course - which is obviously an exception to the rule).

      So here's the hidden agenda... Are you ready? Can you handle the truth? We want everyone to... wait for it... live a clean, healthy, happy life, and that's not all... wait for it.... we want everyone to return to live with Heavenly Father and Jesus and their family after this life. There you have it. I can't believe I spilled the beans. The secret agenda is out! Everyone run for your lives!

    For you Mormons who are taught not to read anything that may be detrimental to the brainwashing by Gordy Hinky and Joe Smit , if you have the nerve go to an honest site and by the book ,Under the Banner of Heaven , The Mormon Murders, The Mountain Meadows Massacre, all written by mormons.. Hoopes you live in a lie and love it so I know you won't read.

      Gordy Hinky and Joe Smit huh? These are obviously well thought out and tastefully written comments, I can tell. People will start to take you seriously now, I just know it! I think the deeper you can dig, the more people will believe all of the obvious truths that you're telling about the Mormon religion, so by all means, please keep digging your hole deeper.

    Howard Hugh's supposed three inch thick Last Will was left at the Mormon Temple in Utah after he died. It was proven a forgery after extensuve testing. Who do you think forged it?The Mormon 's have the largest documented information on almost everyone in the U.S. and beyond in their data base in Utah. Plus hundreds of CIA agents working in Washington D.C. Please America, Read and study about these fanatics before you vote.

How do you expect anyone to take you seriously after you post something like that? Do you think people are actually going to take you seriously? Let's see... forging a 3 inch thick will. Obviously very likely. 100's of CIA agents with hidden agendas. Wow! I can't believe you figured it out! Dude, you are obviously a genious.

But, not too worry...he'll buy your vote anyway. Those are the values he'll bring to the Replublican party. What is the biggest decision you have to make every day? To take the Rolls or the Bentley? I have to decide whether to eat myself or pay for heat for my children. Shame on you, Mr. Romney!

      Yet another brilliant comment. Obviously you are right - picking which car to drive in must be his biggest daily decision. That comment really contributed a lot. Thank you for taking the time to choose your comments so wisely. It's really appreciated.
