"where are your tax returns" campaign any time soon?

see the sign he's making?

Here is Mitt flashing the East Coast Mormon sign

Well played, my friend.

he must know something else.

K&R

been Appreciating it!

Mitch, if you're going to lie to me, buy me something nice first.

"...While the vast majority of U.S. Mormons are politically conservative, the church also contains a small but growing group of progressives, many of whom take defiant delight in parking their Obama bumper-stickered mini-vans in their church parking lots."

though I haven't seen any such thing at the Wards here in downtown SLC. What Obama bumper stickers there are stick to cars that you know are not driven by Mormons. You get to know who is who. There are a few nice Obama signs in front of houses in the Avenues but most of the Avenues are known gentile havens. Mormon "churches" are called Wards BTW.

Just talking... I have heard of the progressives but I am reticent to comment on what that means. It seems a very strange contradiction of terms from my point of view.

at the lack of Romney signs out there. Just today driving up State Street I did see more Obama car stickers than I have seen lately. That's encouraging.

during the DNC.

They reminded me of the Mormons I grew up with in my tiny home town (a lot fewer than 1,000 people) on the high plains of rural north-central Montana. Those Mormons who lived there then were a tiny minority, but were good, decent hard-working members of the community. The majority of us were either Lutherans (primarily of Scandinavian and German origin) or Methodists, with a smaller number of Catholics (as I nominally was), that is, primarily "mainstream" Christian religions, although there was a very prosperous Hutterite colony nearby. The Hutterites primarily kept to themselves, although they would come to town to sell produce and purchase what they needed.

So far as I was aware (and frankly, as a kid, I really didn't pay much attention to those distinctions, a trait that has remained with me), there were no practitioners of non-Christian religions in my home town.

Those Mormon missionaries who perennially passed through were not members of the community. So far as I know, they made no dent whatsoever in anyone's religious beliefs, although a couple of my former classmates converted later in life for various reasons.

I know that even in the western part of MT and in Idaho, many experiences were different. Certainly in Utah and the southwest. But my own experience was basically a benign one, where we each went about our own lives and respected one another's beliefs while participating together in a community.

just saying. Local news over shadow national, Pres O is in good shape.

You know someone has them. I'm just wondering when they'll do it. Maybe right before the second debate?
