Brian Schweitzer continues to be awesome

Who attacked anyone's faith? He merely explained why his father being born in Mexico probably won't be used by the Romney campaign to gain support among Hispanics.

Actually, he did go into a little rant after that about how "polygamy" is far less accepted than "Mormonism" by the swing voter.
And of course, you'll find polygamy in the family history of many Mormons and all the Mormon gentry.

He's just analyzing the election.

Besides, weren't some of Obama's Kenyan ancestors polygamists?

I wouldn't attack Romney over what his grandparents did/believed.

Mitt Romney himself, however, did belong to a church that prohibited black priests, while he was not only alive but well into adulthood...

And BTW, why is a Church allowed to be so heavily involved in politics yet be immune to criticism?

The LDS Church continues to wage a war of bigotry on millions of Americans. Well guess what... Karma is a bitch.

Well guess what...

there is a world of difference between bashing ones' particular faith or religion and standing up for a moral principle. 

But Schweitzer didn't bash any faith. He pointed out that Mitt Romney won't be using his father's birthplace to appeal to Hispanic voters because of the polygamy connotations, because polygamy isn't exactly approved of in American society. That's electoral analysis, and probably a spot on one at that.

And standing up for a moral principle? Hah! I'm sure Lilburn Boggs said something similar.
