Ten Things Every American Jew Should Know About Mitt Romney ** Plus a Bonus **

11. The Book of Mormon verse, Mormon (7:5), reads: “Know ye that ye must come to the knowledge of your fathers, and repent of all your sins and iniquities, and believe in Jesus Christ, that he is the Son of God, and that he was slain by the Jews, and by the power of the Father he hath risen again, whereby he hath gained the victory over the grave; and also in him is the sting of death swallowed up.” Note the “slain by the Jews” phrase; Romney believes in deicide.

John MCLAUGHLIN on his Sunday show (Begins videotaped segment.) DEFENSE SECRETARY LEON PANETTA SAYS:    “The United States and the President has made this clear—does not want Iran to develop a nuclear weapon.

Secretary of Defense Panneta on Face the Nation: “I think the international strategy here, and this really has been an international strategy to apply sanctions, to apply diplomatic pressure on them, to try to convince Iran that if, you know, they want to do what’s right, they need to join the international family of nations and act in a responsible way. I think the pressure of the sanctions, I think the pressure of diplomatic pressures from everywhere—Europe, United States, elsewhere—is working to put pressure on them, to make them understand that they cannot continue to do what they’re doing. Are they trying to develop a nuclear weapon? No.  But we know that they’re trying to develop a nuclear capability. And that’s what concerns us. And our red line to Iran is do not develop a nuclear weapon. That’s a red line for us. “
later on Face the Nation BOB SCHIEFFER asks : “Mr. Secretary, would you like to add anything to that? SECRETARY LEON PANETTA: I think they ( the Iranians) need to know that—that if they take that step that they’re going to get stopped.

I hate to be parochial, but the ‘minor’ point that Romney is a proud leader of a church that continues its practice of posthumously baptizing Jews - especially including Holocaust victims - into their faith with no permissions from the families is horrendous. A violation of religious liberties and an invasion of privacy. It has to be indicative of his attitude towards the rights of individuals as a whole, and the powers of the ruling corporation (political or business) over the individual.
I sincerely hope that apathy on the part of non-Conservative, non-“Christian” voters will not make possible this man’s achieving the presidency, and bringing his friends with him.

And most important: The next president will pick our next two or three Supreme Court Justices who will serve not only the next four years but the next 40!
