Celucci stated Romney said one thing and did another. [not again!!]&lt;br&gt;(Boston Globe 11/25/07)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;See a lot of whining from the Democratic side??? Pleeeease not more than from Romney, already! Romney continually hides behind cruel accusations of &amp;quot;RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY,&amp;quot; &amp;quot;RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE,&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;UN-AMERICAN&amp;quot; rather than answer to clear up the inconsistencies in his statement of 'faith.' (His 'faith' Romney threw into this campaign). Voters, including LDS and Christians, those who &amp;quot;believe in the Bible,&amp;quot; are perplexed by Romney's claims to believe in God, Jesus and the Bible. Is he referring to God and Jesus of the Bible? Or, God and Jesus of LDS? MANY Voters want to know.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As for &amp;quot;RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY,&amp;quot; Romney is SWORN to uphold and sustain LDS scriptures, which include LDS 'deep doctrine' not readily shared with outsiders or new/prospective converts, (over which, it is reported, some have lost their lives for sharing, that is how important I feel these POLITICAL-LDS TEACHINGS should be shared), such as: &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;LDS &amp;quot;LAW of LDS God&amp;quot; regarding the &amp;quot;AFRICAN RACE&amp;quot; is that if any &amp;quot;WHITE MAN OF THE CHOSEN SEED&amp;quot; mixes his blood, it will be &amp;quot;DEATH ON THE SPOT. THIS WILL ALWAYS BE.The AFRICAN RACE is MARKED with FLAT NOSES AND DARK SKIN and this CURSE will remain on them until all Adam's other children have been resurrected. (eg Journal of Discourses,vol.10,p.110; vol.7,p.290,291; vol.2,p.143; vol.11,p.272).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;LDS &amp;quot;RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE,&amp;quot; includes such LDS 'deep doctrine' as:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The time's coming, ANYONE NOT HEARTILY FOR LDS God WILL BE HEWN DOWN (eg Journal of Discourses, vol.3,pg.226). LDS God is Man of flesh and blood (eg Moses 6:57,7:35; Doctrine and Covenants 130:22).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As for &amp;quot;UN-AMERICAN&amp;quot; consider the OATH OF VENGENCE AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES once required in LDS temple rites, taught to LDS children and children's children in which:&lt;br&gt;SWEAR ETERNAL HOSTILITY TO--&lt;br&gt;TO RENOUNCE ALL ALLEGIANCE TO--&lt;br&gt;TO STAND ABSOLVED OF ALL OATHS OF FEALTY, PAST OR FUTURE, EVER MADE TO--&lt;br&gt;AND,TO DO ALL IN THEIR POWER TO OVERTHROW--&lt;br&gt;THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA&lt;br&gt;Teaching children, that in the event of failure, they are to take up the cause after them.&lt;br&gt;This, too,&lt;br&gt;SWORN TO FIDELITY AND SECRECY.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I,too, would like to know just how Romney intends to answer to oaths of obedience to LDS prophet and priethood authority, in all things temporal and spiritual, all the LDS oaths, sworn on his life AND, THE OATH OF OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Romney compares himself to JFK. The Catholic church doesn't require members to swear a most solemn oath before the heavens and the earth, to uphold, cherish, sustain and build up ONLY LDS 'kingdom' and NO OTHER on earth. (eg &amp;quot;Ensign&amp;quot; Nov.2000,p.7). JFK helped voters understand where he stood with his religion and his politics.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I, too, have taken up the march to help voters make educated votes. </description></item><item><title>Romney criticizes Rudy on NYC budget</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/24/479445.aspx#479840</link><pubDate>Sun, 25 Nov 2007 19:35:56 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:479840</guid><dc:creator>TS, beavercreek, ohio</dc:creator><description>still undecided-&lt;br&gt;Hiding behind a false name but still bearing false witness. &lt;br&gt;One of the big TEN, remember? &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;I'll give you a hint, &amp;quot;thou shalt not...&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Go Romney!
