Default New scandal for Media matters?

The Latest from Reverend Al, I am sure media matters will be all over this .

Quote:
"As for the one Mormon running for office, those who really believe in God will defeat him anyway, so don’t worry, that’s a temporary situation.”

Now there are numerous reasons to not like Romney, but I wasn't aware that religious bigotry was one of them.

My guess is that the selective outrage about bigoted comments will prevent this one from getting much traction with the MSM and Media Matters. Think Al will lose HIS radio gig?

Religious bigotry is a perfectly valid reason for a liberal to dislike someone. You will never see a more bigoted group of people than liberals talking about religion.

I've only seen a headline about some Romney Shartpon bit. Is that what he said? I'll wait to read up on it first before I comment.

By invoking those that "really believe in god", do you suppose he was talking about the ACLU

Ah, the battle of the intolerant. Sharpton, as usual, put his foot in his mouth and said the wrong thing. He's the Pat Robertson or Jerry Falwell of the left. Romney is sleaze, but that has nothing to do with his religious views.

Ah, the myopic world of the American liberal: Mitt Romney is a sleaze but Bill Clinton isn't.

Yeah, that makes sense.

I'm no fan of Shank, and I'm curious to see how he spins this one.

Romney is sleeze, but those comments are indefensible. Of course, my mentioning that the Shakedown Twins are the beneficiary of a double standard resulted in my being branded a racist, which a moderator seemed to somewhat agree with. Let's see how this one plays out this time.

This guy right here is the most ignorant, stereotyping moron on this forum...
No one on the left here seems to group all conservatives together into one stupid broad statement about their "world"... Only a true jaggov would resort to such a lazy deduction...
