Romney stated that the FF's approved of a state religion. That was an outright lie. Link or lie? Of course considering the source of the TDFW post....we already know its a lie.

The newest rumor in the John Edwards Love Child Scandal mill: the National Enquirer, illusionists or temporary moralists? Yesterday the incendiary rag had published a story on its website, "John Edwards Love Child Scandal!" along with the blurb, "Woman linked to candidate PREGNANT & IN HIDING." Bloggers took the Enquirer story and ran with it if only to write about various scenarios if the rumor were true or false and if the Clintons were behind the story. From Politico: What the tabloid's readers, in politics and out, may not know is that a key owner of the Enquirer is a prominent New York investment banker and one of Hillary Clinton's key backers, Roger Altman. Altman was an official in the first Clinton administration, and his name is often mentioned as a possible Clinton Treasury Secretary. The telenovella style melodrama flew across the net and escalated when the link to the Edwards story at the Enquirer disappeared. One blogger called those who were covering the rumor gistfest, morons, that the story had disappeared and therefore was baseless. True, for several hours the story had disappeared from the cyberpages of the Enquirer. Had the Enquirer made the realization that their story about Edwards was untrue and did the honorable thing and removed it before more damage could be done? Inquiring minds wanted to know until several hours later when, in illusionist fashion, the story reappeared! Was the Enquirer toying with everyone? First you see it, now you don't? The enigma of the disappearing John Edwards Enquirer story came to an end this morning when the thud of millions of Enquirers hitting backstreet newstands resounded across the country; the brightly colored headline "John Edwards' Love Child Scandal" splayed across the page. The story had now reached the masses. Source - National Enquirer

Romney stated that the FF's approved of a state religion. I second jla's call - if he said this link to a text that shows he said it. If you don't we'll know its another liberal lie. In fact, the religious right in this country is guilty of persecuting others. Who? The people who are offended by "Merry Christmas"? Their crusades against anyone of a different creed than themselves are well-known. ???? In fact they hate Mormons, Jews, Catholics, Methodists, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, Unitarians, I grew up in a religious family and attended church several times a week throughout my youth. And in that time I never heard a hateful word against any of these from a Christian. They deny the need for science and sex education. Not true. They demonize sexual freedom. Sorta true. They do believe sexual sins exist and that sexual freedom is for marriage. All religions believe this. Lets be honest - "sexual freedom" basically equates to promiscuity and there are lots of problems caused by this, which is a good and understandable reason that all moral codes oppose it. Okay thats enough - I'll ignore the rest of the insane rant.
