If he's elected let's pray Romney isn't a good Mormon! Let's hope he's faking it!
The danger to our military families posed by having a man in the White House whose knowledge of the world seems to only extend to avoiding military service, tax shelters, investing in Chinese sweat shops and a stint as a missionary in France, comes from the fact that to be a good Mormon one has to be jingoistic and combative about foreign policy. So if he's elected let's pray Romney isn't a good Mormon! Let's hope he's faking it!
You see unlike Romney's sons my military-aged son volunteered to serve our country. (Thank God he came home from multiple wartime deployments alive.) I co-authored a book with Kathy Roth Douquet, Blue Star Families CEO about who serves in the military these days and who doesn't that John McCain wrote the forward to: AWOL: The Unexcused Absence of America's Upper Classes from Military Service -- and How It Hurts Our Country. Point being unlike Romney I have had skin in the game in our wars.
As the father of a Marine who was sent to fight in two stupid wars by an evangelical Protestant president I know how presidential theology can exacerbate stupidity. So I shudder to think that we might elect an even more religiously deluded and theologically-motivated president than W Bush was.

Maybe the "Book Of Mormon" and its light satire is making the Later Day Saints more human.
