  TAFT BENSON is considered by many as a MORMOM PROFIT, Profits in the Christian Faith are still celebrated today. Although he is dead he left behind a powerful fraternity; that embodies his beliefs. You have inheritied what you have from those before you. Mormons are fundamentalist. There are no Chinese,black, latino, Italian, Irish, French, Mormons. They are one bloodline; they do not deter from that bloodline. Every Mormon knows who Ezra Taft Benson was and his legacy impacts them today. Mormons do not want anyone to know anything about their religion; RAT you should research the history of your religion so you don't get fooled. A know who you are, I know what you represent, and I bet I know who you voted for last election. You were one of the three blind mice. You follow blindly you have no idea how things work nor do you care. You are a politician dream.

  Does this Eddiwhere idiot know that Ezra Taft Benson died in the mid-nineties? Who gives a hoot where his middle name came from. His current influence on living Mormons is nil. Just like Eddie's intelligence.

  Alter has too much free time, not enough perspective. The campaign is about substance, not style. Judging a candidate by his/her laugh is about as trivial as one can get. But it is indicative of the caliber of journalists we have these days. The Ivy-league educated reporters and columnists of today are definitely not an advance over those who learned their craft from the bottom up. This column is disgraceful.
