re: #34 Charles

Glenn Beck is racist to his core.

As much as I hate to be caught defending him, that quote in itself strikes me as no more than a knee jerk wish for the supposedly good old days of white anglo saxon christian dominance in politics. It can be a cultural bias as much as a racist one, and I think we are all prone to the former.

On the other hand, I often wonder how Mormons reconcile their obviously racist theology, tempered only because they had to do so, not because the golden plates said so.
