Usually I wouldn't approve of such attacks, but considering it's Brian Schweitzer, the greatest man that ever lined, I will agree with this.

Well guess what...

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

Yes, standing up to bigotry and discrimination is a must.  It is important that we as Americans point out the rude and discriminatory statements of others who dare to imply that you can tell a lot about a person's character from their lifestyle.  Statements of love and not at all judgmental about a person's lifestyle like this for instance:

This bolo tie bronco bustin' rootin' tootin' cowboy I see is also a narrow minded Mormon basher slyly bringing up the polygamy issue in a way he hopes nobody will see through his bigoted little ploy.

As you all can see the honorable Winfield has gone out of his way not to bring up Governor Brian Schweitzer's culture highlighted in the bolded words while also condemning attacks on Mormonism.  What a great, loving, and altogether non-judgmental poster and a great example of a human being to us all.

And what, pray tell, is so upsetting about  bolo tie bronco bustin' rootin' tootin' cowboy?

Any cowboy would be proud to be described as such.

These, my friend, with the possible exception of bolo tie, are terms used commonly, and might I say in a positive light, in western movies and documentaries about cowboys.



My friend, did I say anything about it being bad?

NONSENSE!  I was merely praising your openhearted need to point out that Brian Schweitzer was a cowboy who also had the misfortune to make polygamy jokes about Morons Mormons.  Because it is not at all culturalist to point out that somebody is of a certain culture when making a point about people who judge other religions.

It takes a truly great man to not skip over such details that are indeed important to judging how somebody will naturally perceive things they do not understand.  It is scientific truth after all!

Winnie be praised!
