I agree. Authority figures, especially of the Church, can damage young minds over those so many years if those authority figures are warped. How can a man be a good President after being raised in such a church family led by such a man? Can you tell me? And what was his family thinking in keeping him in that Church? Anyone.

Now, as far as the PAC goes, Romney axed it because he was asked about it and he did not want it. I personally think it is more applicable to current afairs than five pages in the Washington Post, starting on page one, about Romney's teen year pranks. Duh.

Well, of course it is.
But, for reasons that are obvious only to me, evidently, Romney does not want religion to be an issue.

This is a bigoted/coded way of saying that b/c the Rev. Wright seems like a scary radical black man....that the president is also a scary radical black man.



Of course,we`re directed to that fiery sermon where Wright askes whether black Americans,considering what they have collectively/individually suffered at the hands of America(and still do)should want to "bless" America?


To which he or any similar sane normal person would scream NO!.....Hell NO!.....God Damm America!....One would have to be a little nuts to bless or thank America for a similar plight.


Unfortunately for republicans and other similarly challenged folks,to disagree with Wright means one supports/ed the Tuskegee experiments,jim-crow,prejudice and racism etc., against black folks.

Romney's unease with a focus on religion makes sense to me too, fwtw.

"New Poll Shows President Obama Is Way More Popular Than Mitt Romney"

Mitt Romney just cannot catch a break in the polls, unless of course you’re counting the wealthy and conservatives. President Obama leads Romney among women, hispanics, African-Americans, and young people. And in a new ABC News/Washington Post Poll, Romney is far less popular than President Obama.

President Obama has a 53% overall favorable rating, which is nearly 20 points more than Romney’s 34%. Perhaps the most telling analysis of this poll is that among Republicans and conservatives, Romney is far less popular than President Obama is among Democrats and liberals. While only 62% of Republicans have a favorable opinion of Romney, a whopping 86% of Democrats stand behind President Obama. Over half of Democrats strongly favor Obama. That number falls like a brick for Mitt Romney, with just over 13% of Republicans feeling the same way about the presumptive Presidential nominee.


President Obama is also more popular than Romney among men and women, leads among moderates and independents, and among those with middle class incomes."

Better pollish up plan 'b' there buddy.......calling women whores and the president a scary black man........

Mitt and the romnites can pretend to be against such dirty tricks.......really.......it`ll be fun.

Hmmm... so they "blew the lid" off something that's been openly discussed since 2008?!!  Wow... four years to "blow the lid" off the completely obvious?!!  Now there's some investigative reporting?!!
