All About Mitt Romney

Mitt Romney is one of the smarter Republican candidates, You may have already seen his own campaign speeches, but what do other people say about him?  Lets find out.  For the sake of objectivity, half of my sources are Republican and half are Democrat.

Does Mitt Romney stand for what you believe in?  You decide.


MITT’S EXPERIENCE AT BAIN CAPITAL:

MITT’S RELIGION:

Christians ostensibly believe a person should be judged by their actions; i.e., “by their fruit you shall know them.”  A person’s claimed religion should normally be off-limits, except for the fact that for many Republicans, religion (not character, ethics, honesty, qualifications or experience) has become the litmus test of a presidential candidate.  Therefore, I believe they should know about the claimed religion of the person they will be voting for, especially if this is their sole criteria.

Joseph Smith and the religion he created was clearly shown to be a fraud, and this is hardly a secret—it was once pointed out to me that even before the internet, this information could be found in any good library.  This is relevant to Mitt’s Romney’s credibility and how he would be viewed by the rest of the world—who all have access to information on the internet such as that regarding the the book of Morman, the Kinderhook Plates, the Egyptian hieroglyphs “interpreted” by Joseph Smith, the circumstances of his death, the striking similarity of the Morman endowment ceremony to the pagan Freemasonry rituals, concept of Mormons one day inheriting planets and spirit children, etc., etc.  And we haven't even mentioned Brigham Young and his ordering of the Mountain Meadows Massacre--that's another story.

L Ron Hubbard is probably the closest 20th century comparison to Joseph Smith -- he was also a charismatic speaker, a fraud, a pathological liar, and a bigamist who spouted gibberish and engaged in criminal mischief and whose "religion" is still being followed to this day (with help from Tom Cruise) despite the wealth of unflattering information about him that contradicts the official "Scientology" version of his biography.
