I Would Hope That Harry Reid Is Not The Face Of Mormonism

According to several reports, Harry Reid has now come up with a new attack line against Mitt Romney.  As one Mormon to another, Harry has stated that Mitt is not the "face of Mormonism" and has even gone so far as to say that he has "sullied" the LDS Church.

I'm not a Mormon but, when looking at these two, Reid and Romney,  I would seriously hope that Harry Reid is not the face of the Mormon Church.   In Reid, I see nothing Christian.  I see a person that does not believe in that foundation belief of "do unto others" or "Thou shall not bear false witness".  At every opportunity he lies or presents deceitful statements in order to score political points.  For weeks, he has lied about Romney not having paid any taxes in the last 12 years.  Then it was 10 years. To justify his words, he claimed a credible source: A nameless Bain investor.  Now, this week, we know that Romney has paid hefty taxes in all of the last 20 years.

He has refused to walk across the aisle to work with Republicans on budgets, health care, or anything else.   He has treated them as lepers; not willing to hear any of their concerns.  He has facilitated Obama's destruction of this country by helping create a situation where millions of Americans are no longer employed and have lost thousands of dollars in salary over the last four years..   Reid was a pugilist by trade and has continued to act like he's still in the ring every day of his life.  I see a person that is constantly combative and unchristian; and, I would, hope, too, not Mormon.

Romney, to me, is more Christian than either Reid or Obama could ever hope to be.  He has helped many in need.  He has contributed his time and millions, each and every year, to his faith and other charities in order to comfort others.

Reid has gone too far, this time.  Hopefully, his words will backfire both on him and, as the Senate leader, and on the entire Democratic party for such a cheap-shot.
