Mr. Romney is a religious man. I appreciate that. BUT I don't like ANY politician to wear their personal beliefs on their shoulder and talk about them at any instant. Romney didn't wear his religious beliefs on his sleeve. Christine O'Donnell did and so did Michelle Bachmann. Our land was framed by the Constitution, and we have "Freedom OF Religion" but the only way that interests the public is by that person, (or any person for that matter) to be a person who lives their life in a way that would make others ask "How do you live your life in such an" upright, moral, and helping others" way? I'll disagree. Society today is reaping what it sowed, turning freedom of religion into freedom from religion and any level of morality. We need to get God back into schools after two generations of removing and ridiculing God. God is powerful, the greatest source of inspiration, both good and evil. Men flew airplanes into buildings on 9/11 following what they were taught about their god, good men use to die with God as their witness, Jews were marched to their deaths by Hitler knowing God. Men stayed behind allowing women to board lifeboats, any chance you would see that today, men sacrificing themselves for unknown women? Our children need to be inspired by the word of God. And before anyone mentions it, the Catholic priests who did horrible things to children should be dragged into the center of town and burned at the stake. Now America has elected and reelected a man who attended G-d damn Amerikkka's church, was married in it, and baptized all of his children, by this man who claims to lead followers of God. America did pretty damn good for 200 years praising, worshiping, and yes, sometimes failing under God. Our candidates need to show their love of God. Too many people today are lost and need someone they can look up to, someone who's only difference is that the candidate realizes they are not the most important or most moral person in the room. You reminded me of Ron Reagan trying to rewrite his father's religious beliefs: wnd.com At the Ronald Reagan interment, which I was privileged to attend, Ron criticized politicians who wear “faith on [their] sleeve[s]“: “Dad was also a deeply, unabashedly religious man. But he never made the fatal mistake of so many politicians wearing his faith on his sleeve to gain political advantage. President Reagan was a very religious man, even George W Bush. No, it's time to turn around instead of racing full speed ahead with the democrats leading. Here's a TeaParty piece on the establishment republicans: teapartytribune.com
