Mitt Romney:

. . . based on the numbers of American Muslims [as a percentage] in our population, I cannot see that a cabinet position would be justified. But of course, I would imagine that Muslims could serve at lower levels of my administration.

The hidden lesson here – cabinet positions are filled based upon population, not qualifications. Yeah that makes sense.

Now considering that Romney is Mormon and people following the Mormon fate dropped between 1990 and 2000, while Muslims increased during the same time period, I guess we could apply the same logic to him being President. I don’t think there are enough Mormons in this country to justify a Mormon President. How’s that for religious bigotry? Or does it only apply to people the Republicans don’t like?

So which of the Republican front runners isn’t a redneck, racist asshole (or at least pretending to be)?
