Another huge decision for Americans, as if the last election wasn't difficult enough...the first black man or the first woman in the white house (don't get me wrong here, I vote according to the persons merits or when that fails I vote for the lesser of the evils)
Obama is not very popular right now. So I can imagine it will be something like the man that ruined our economy or a cult member (again, don't get me wrong. I knew when Bush left his office it would take at least two terms to straighten up the economy)
But I can say that when I watched the video I did fall off my chair when the church elder referred to our President as Osama before correcting himself and named him Obama. I really did fall off my chair!
PLEASE AMERICA...no cult members in the White House!!! Cults that believe in disconnection....well I don't have to tell the people here how destructive disconnection is.

This is going to be a very ugly campaign. Obama will not hesitate to play the race card (in fact he already does at every opportunity) and Romney's religion is going to be a major issue (think Jack Kennedy, 1960).

It certainly looks that way. Some Democrats on CNN have already said the Obama campaign will draw attention to the Mormon Church's historical stigmatization of & discrimination against blacks, and Mormon doctrines claiming having dark skin was a curse.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprise the Romney propaganda machine start running commercials using black Mormons to counter this. I remember when singer Gladys Knight converted to Mormonism and many in the black community were.. WTF??

So funny... the SyFy Channel has announced that paranormal investigator Grant Wilson is quitting the popular show, "Ghost Hunters"..

Grant is also a Mormon. Wonder what church leaders think of his chasing ghosts? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grant_Wilson

Mitt Romney listens to wife on economic issues facing women in the U.S.... "Ann Romney hasn't worked a day in her life."

Ann Romney.. "I have not had any financial struggles, but I've had to struggle, and Mitt & I know what it's like to struggle."

Mitt's wife is referring to the Mormon doctrine establishing a married couple is expected to have as many children as the wife is physically capable of bearing, regardless of their financial situation. The exact number (whether 7, 10 or 15 children) that follows from obedience to this principle is strictly between the couple and the Lord. Brownie points are awarded in Heaven for couples who push the physical capacity envelope with regard to child-bearing.

A LDS member committed a grievous sin in the Mormon Church.. he snuck in with a camera phone and recorded a Baptism of the Dead ceremony in a font built on the backs of oxen made of ivory.

Listen carefully.. the names of the baptized are given with "they are dead"... and the woman is dunked over & over again with the name of a new deceased individual.

I have no idea who Sweeney is, and, dare I say, I know practically nothing about the Mormons. But Romney seems like a reasonable man to me, although he is opposed to the abortion (at least this is what he is saying now).

What scares the piss out of me is the thought that people who don't know or care who Sweeney is and who know practically nothing about Mitt Romney's 'church' will soon be voting to choose the next President of the United States.

No more than the thought of Obama being re-elected scares me.

I watched this and at times I could've sworn John Sweeney was talking about $cientology. I did notice however that they don't seem to have--or at least display it--as much agressive rage when been interviewed.

At times like these---I am SO proud and happy to be Canadian

LOL! I know that but there's no elections with Obama and Romney as choices. I didn't mean we didn't have Mormons in Canada.
