That's the ticket!1 BecKKK is Mittens' secret weapon for infecting Xtian Fundies

The article says BecKKK seldom talks about his Mormonism. It was funny a few weeks ago when O'LOOFAH did his trademark picking at scabs, dishing it out (but can't take it), and introduced BecKKK with, "You're a Mormon, aren't you?!1" And BecKKK bristled, "I've been a Mormon for all of the twelve years you've known me!1"



QUIBBLE: The NYT labels BecKKK as a "pundit." Definition of PUNDIT: "Hindi paṇḍit, from Sanskrit paṇḍita, from paṇḍita learned - a learned man : teacher"

[font size=5]Beck Acts as a Bridge Between Romney and Evangelical Christians[/font]

By AMY CHOZICK

On radio and on his Internet network, the influential conservative pundit Glenn Beck frequently invokes God, religious freedom and the founding fathers, but he does not regularly discuss his own Mormon faith. ....

Mr. Beck has not always supported Mr. Romney. (“I think he’s an honorable man, but I don’t trust him,” he said last year.) But as perhaps the best-known Mormon after the Republican presidential candidate and a major influence on evangelical Christians, Mr. Beck has emerged as an unlikely theological bridge between the first Mormon presidential nominee and a critical electorate. ....

During his special program, Mr. Beck took questions from mostly evangelical Christian listeners, colorfully debunking misperceptions about Mormonism. The “magic underwear” was compared to a skullcap, and Mr. Beck insisted that polygamy was seen as a “perversion” in the modern church. ....

“It’s not weird to be a Mormon,” he assured his listeners at the end of the program, “and it’s not weird to be president if you’re Mormon.” ....
