Seriously?? We want to claim that the fact that Obama's father was born in Kenya makes him not understand the international scene because of his "heritage" (half non-anglo saxon)? So far heritage has kind of been off the table. Do you want to go there Mitt? OK. This will be fun. But don't do your normal cry like a baby thing when the bullies start picking on you and turn it around and do the same thing to you.
Like we are then free to talk about the fact that YOUR father was born in a foreign country. Your father is from Mexico. And WHY was he born in Mexico? Because your "heritage" is chalk full of people who had total disregard for the laws of this country? Did your forefathers teach you those values? Does that make you someone who should be respected on the international stage?
Your great grandfather fled this country (well, the Utah Territory) with his 5 wives for the express purpose of escaping its laws. You know, that law about one man/one woman that you claim has been the tradition for 2,000 years. And what about your g-g-grandfather, the beloved mormon icon, Parly P. Pratt? Oh yes, I learned in Sunday School how he died a martyr. He died after being shot for his beliefs. Isn't that what a martyr does? Only my SS teacher left out a little part. You know that part about his speshul beliefs that he died for being that a man should be able to take another man's wife and his kids because he wants her for his 12th "spiritual wife."
Yup, and when "spiritual wife's" real husband finally tracked that man down, after that man had gone to Louisiana and helped kidnap her kids, move them to Utah and hide them, hubby shot him in the back. Martyr my ass. He died because he had total disregard for the laws of this country. What a great heritage you have Mitt. Let's make heritage an issue in this race. Oh, and then let's not forget that most historians, who are looking at facts, not just the whitewashed Mormon version of history, believe that the Mountain Meadows Massacre was perpetrated as revenge for the fact that the state of Arkansas did nothing to your g-g-granddaddy's murderer (the husband of one of his 13 concubines). So as revenge, the Mormons attacked a wagon train from Arkansas, killing 120 men, WOMEN and CHILDREN. Yup, that's all part of your heritage. Let's make sure the British have the whole picture.
Let the heritage games begin!
