Obama sure is!
As long as Obama really believes this, I am encouraged. Let him sleep while we work. It will make the moment all the more priceless when we rip his political lungs out.
With few exceptions, I am proud of the Evangelicals for not taking the bait of the MSM on the subject of Mormonism. Remember that with MItt Romney as the nominee, the evangelicals have proven that they can get behind a Mormon. The burden of proof is on the Democrats now. Romney's religion as a political issue is a red herring. Unless you bite, it will have no effect. Move along and this issue will die on the vine. Full disclosure: I am a Mormon.
What definition of cult are you using?
By the classical definition, Christianity was a cult and the apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ were cultists. By them I stand. The word cult in modern usage is nothing more than an arbitrary classification, that Walter Martin (Kingdom of the Cults) exploited for years to demonize people he disagreed with theologically. It means absolutely nothing, as does Walter Martin and his worthless ministry. His criteria are invalid and are not worth a hill of dung. I refuse to acknowledge them.
Your arbitrary classification is nothing but a bunch of smoke.
Being called a cultist is about the theological equivalent of being accused of having the cooties. As a Mormon, I find people throwing around the term "cult" at about the time where they are beginning to lose the argument. It means absolutely nothing to me.
Don't tell the DNC that this will more likely help Romney than hurt him. I would take it as a badge of honor.
I say, bring it on. In fact, I dare you, Obama. It is not going to work, regardless of whether you agree with the teachings of the LDS Church. The economy is in shambles and your greatest worry is that he is attending the wrong church on Sunday? Humm? Romney could really turn this to his advantage.
The bottom line is he can GET IT DONE, not just talk a good game. A few qualities that he has in spades come to mind and are (1) he has run a business and knows what small business needs, (2) he is the only candidate with executive experience, (4) he lives his social conservatism, (5) he knows how to balance a budget without raising taxes, (6) his fiscal instincts are right, and they are backed up by a personal frugality and self discipline, (7) his dealings with his fellow man are above reproach, and (8) he has the modesty that is needed. We will get more conservative bang for our buck with Romney that we will with the others, the talk notwithstanding. Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, and others will be chuckling with glee one day.
