Dumb Ass Whoopi Attempts Gotcha On Ann Romney, Wrongly Says Mormonism Forbids Military Service

The end justifies the means mentality! Grasping at any rumor to discredit Romney, including by way of his religion, antiwar Whoopi Goldberg ignorantly accuses Ann Romney of being a member of a pacifist religion.
It backfired twice. It showed what a hypocritical ignoramus Goldberg really is (and always has been) and again conveyed the grace of Ann Romney against the graceless backdrop of the old bags who make up the cast of the "View." m/r

Whoopi Attempts Gotcha On Ann Romney, Wrongly Says Mormonism Forbids Military Service | RealClearPolitics
Oct. 18, 2012

Whoopi Goldberg, co-host of "The View on ABC, failed at an attempt to get Ann Romney with a "gotcha" question on Mormonism and military service. Romney, who appeared as a guest on the mid-day talk show, had to correct Goldberg on her faith's view on military service. Goldberg wrongly said that service in the armed forces was forbidden by the religion and was promptly corrected by Mrs. Romney. Transcript below.
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: As first lady, if you get the job, it’s going to entail a lot of things, and one of those things is going to be talking to the mothers whose children are coming home in bags, you know, from wars. Now, I know -- I believe that your religion doesn’t allow you to go fight.

ANN ROMNEY: No, that's not correct. We have many, many members of our faith that are serving in armed services.

GOLDBERG: Okay, um, I say that because when I read about your husband, what I had read, and maybe you can correct this is that the reason that he didn’t serve in Vietnam was because it was against the religion. That’s what I read.

ROMNEY: No, that's not correct. He was serving his mission and you know my five sons have also served missions. None served in the military.
