(8,994 posts)What I am not understanding is why Mormons (aka "Mormans" ) have to be dragged into this at all, just because of this one knuckle dragging Republican savage.
We're not going to let equivalent jokes fly because Meg Whitman is a woman or Herman Cain is black or Marc Rubio is Hispanic.
I can go all day with jokes about Romney as a person...

(20,317 posts)Mormonism is relatively young, and so doesn't benefit from the reverence that plain old age gives to a lot of other religions. I think it's pretty funny that so many religious people can so casually laugh at Mormonism and call it ridiculous, when it's no more silly than their own religion.

Can you not see that? Really?
