Romney did not speak to reporters when he left the funeral today. That assesment was taken at another time.
We hear Bernick criticize the candidates including Obama for not focusing on Utah and he criticizes Barack Obama for doing the right thing and canceling his trip to Utah today out of respect for President Hinckley's funeral services but Mitt Romney seized upon an opportunity for free press and used the Prophet to do so. He should be ashamed. I know I would be. He is no different than Hillary Clinton, John McCain and all the others who have ignored Utah. Obama did the right thing. What about Romney?
To "Shame on Romney" it is hard to read someones mind or to know what motivates them. Judge not...
Thank you for coming, Governor Romney. And thank you to all the other dignitaries and thousands of "ordninary people" who made this day so inspiring.
Let's "follow the prophet" and be gracious to our guests. President Hinckley set a great example of greeting the world and members alike with dignity. We can do the same.
It may be difficult to resist criticism and fault-finding, but we can do it. President Hinckley would expect us to.
One of the commentators on KBYU mentioned the stark contrast between the succession of the President of the Church and the succession of the President of the U.S. Regardless of the heart and motives of a politician today, I am certain of the heart and motives of President Monson, our next Prophet. It is comforting to see the difference.
thought number 2: If he had not come, you guys would have had something else to hate about... get over your hate, it hurts you more than it does anyone else...
Why in the world would he need to campaign here?
Whoever said Romney was here for political reasons is a simple minded Romney hater.
In all honesty..for Romney to campaign in Utah right before super Tuesday would be a rather stupid move. He needs to spend time out where he is behind...or where it is too close. Utah is Romney's and he knows it.
However, the right man for the job is Obama.
You brought it up.
