Who Romney and the Extreme Conservatives trying to Fool?

"If the GOP, if they want to do that, then guess what, you're now putting Mormonism on the table" Roland Martin (Conservative CNN host)

Romney said he "repudiates" any efforts of "character assassination," arguing Obama's campaign has already attempted to take on such tactics. (In fact the only Mormonism tactics used have been by social conservatives who are Republican)

Who are they trying to kid? President Barack Obama has always run his campaign based on sound moral values.

Anyone with even a small degree of morality should be able to see the "set up" being prepared for running a "dirty tricks" campaign by the GOP and the big money backers who fund them. There is no desire to make this a better country based on traditional Christian (or for that matter any other religion) values.

If this country is going to hell in a hand basket it isn't the government, gay marriage, womens' health issues, the budget causing the erosion of American values, it certainly is unethical, greedy and callous individuals who think "God helps those who help themselves" is a verse from the bible.

This is actually a quote from Ben Franklin and it appeared in Poor Richard’s Almanac in 1757. In fact the Bible teaches the opposite. God helps the helpless! Isaiah 25:4 declares, "For You have been a defense for the helpless, a defense for the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat..." Romans 5:6 tells us, "For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly."~ Askville by Amazon

Franklin also said in 1757, "Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other."
