Papantonio: Mitt Romney, Mormonism, and Perpetual War

During the presidential debate on foreign policy, Mitt Romney made it clear that if elected, he’ll lead this country into more unwinnable, endless wars than the former Bush administration. His views on war are shaped by both the neo-cons running the GOP, as well as his religion, and Mike Papantonio recently spoke with Frank Schaeffer, author of “Crazy for God”, about why war hawk Republicans and the Mormon faith are a bad mix.

Frank Schaeffer has been on the inside of the "christianists" and knows from whence he speaks. Crazy for God is downright scary, but should be read - just like Disaster Capitalism.

I wouldn't surprise me, that Mitt's first act as President, in the first week would be to Nuke Iran into the ground. Theocracy in America would definitely be next.
