WHAT THE GOP SHOULD DO ABOUT MITT'S RELIGION

A JACKSONIAN HAS A GREAT POST ON THE MITT THING.

HE POINTS OUT THAT WE'VE HAD NON-PROTESTANT PRESIDENT'S SINCE THE GET GO (LONG BEFORE JFK), AND RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY, TOO; (PARAPHRASING FOLLOWS - GO TO THE POST AND READ THE WHOLE LINK-FILLED THING!):

• TAFT WAS ONE SUCH CANDIDATE. HE WAS TARGETED BECAUSE HE WAS... A UNITARIAN.

• TO HELP PUT DOWN THIS BIGOTRY, TEDDY ROOSEVELT WENT TO CHURCH WITH TAFT.

• TAFT WAS ELECTED.

• OH... AND TAFT WAS GOP.

• THE CURRENT CROP OF GOP CANDIDATES SHOULD RALLY AROUND MITT - AND THE CAUSE OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM IN OUR NATION.
  

• THEY SHOULD ALL FLY TO SALT LAKE AND ATTEND CHURCH TOGETHER - A MORMON CHURCH.

THAT WILL END THAT.

TO THE PARTY'S BETTERMENT.

AND THE NATION'S.
