MORMONS ARE GOOD PEOPLE
There are lots of Mormons where I live. For the most part, they are good people, but they mostly keep to themselves. However, they do have some strange beliefs: that black people are a cursed race; that their missionaries need to wear special undergarments they obtain from their church; celestial marriage; that their God figure, Elohim resides near a star called Kolob; and that Jesus and Lucifer are brothers. There''s more, but I''ll spare you. Research it yourself.I don''t like Romney because he, like Giuliani and McCain is soft on illegal immigration and national sovereignty (as most globalist CFR members are), and he''s a war-monger who approves the use of torture. I love my country, and with a guy like him in office, Old Glory will be coming down soon, and the North American Union flag goes up. They are already minting the "Amero" (the replacement for the Dollar) at the U.S. Mint in Denver, and most people are clueless. Why do you think The Federal Reserve is tanking our Dollar. It''s the age old "Problem Reaction Solution" dialectic--after the central bankers cause our economy to collapse and repossess our leveraged assets, we''ll be begging them to save us with their new, silver-based NAU currency. Forget about controlling immigration under the NAU scheme. There won''t be any borders anymore, or a free America. Ron Paul is the only candidate who has done anything to protect us from these threats to our sovereignty. halturnershow.com/AmeroCoinArrives.html

Any of these adds that end with "I''m (name), and I approved this message" are POLITICAL COMMERCIALS, not Christmas Greetings.

All of them should be feeling shame for trying to prove who is "closest to God" for votes.

While I watch television during the Christmas season, I''d rather see ''It''s a Wonderful Life'', "Rudolph'', or ''A Christmas Carol'', not this political bullsh!t.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!

So Huckabee has a hidden white cross in his ad... and Ron Paul has FOUR. Seriously. Pause Paul''s add at 27 seconds and look at the four hidden crosses in the lattice work of the patio door.

Puh-leeze.

Anyone interested in a funny (but it really happened) column about what Huckabee is really like face-to-face should try:

"Where was Huckabee''''s family in his Christmas ad?
I thought he was running on "Family values".
Is Huckabee embarrassed by his family?"

His family is not running for office, you dimtwit.

Hillary''s Christmas ad was the most cringe-worthy of the group. Huckabee''s is the best, simply because of the type of people who were offended by it.

As a Ron Paul supporter, I think his was the best. Ron Paul''s Holiday wishes are geared towards all Americans, no matter the religion, race, or beliefs. Ron Paul''s message follows his Presidential campaign and his love for his family, his country, our Constitution, and WE THE American people.
I also believe Obama''s Holiday message was geared the same way. Obama seems just as sincere as Ron Paul. I sure hope Ron Paul and Obama are the two that make it to November 2008 election cycle. They are the only decent ones out of the bunch.

mudrose....
WOW!!!! For once I agree with you. All this fuss over nothing. Who cares about all this? If you tell me Merry Christmas I will consider that as a nice greeting....If you say Happy Hollidays I will take it the same way. The truth is that this time of the year has been so perverted that many people relate the season to getting their shopping done. The true meaning has been lost to Madison Avenue and the big retailers. And all because three wise men brought gold, frankinsence and what ever that other stuff was. Merry Christmas you old far*.

muddie,

My wish for the New Year i that the media will dissect the policy proposals of the candidates half as much as they do this dribble.

Personally, I could care less if he has a life-size blinking neon cross in his living room and ads, so long as he acknowledges and respects the faith of others and demonstrates a committment to respect the beliefs of all Americans-that''s my only religious criteria for the candidates(so I''m a PC maniac, so shoot me!). I would have felt better about the spot if he had extended Holiday wishes to all Americans of all faiths.

stonebog1...With all due respect, your posts are demented. It''s obvious you are attacking the democrats but you are very hard to understand. Oh well, keep posting whatever you want. You have as much right on here as any of the rest of us.
