    Jane Pitt, mother of actor Brad Pitt, has been scared into silence by the hate-filled, vulgar and even violent reaction to her public assertion that Barack Obama is “a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage.”

    Pitt has even been the subject of death threats following her letter to the editor of Missouri’s Springfield News-Leader in which she asserted failure to vote for Republican presumptive presidential candidate Mitt Romney constituted a vote for Obama...

    ...Jane Pitt originally penned her letter to the editor responding to another reader, Richard Stoecker, who stated that Christians should not vote for Romney based on his Mormonism.

    In her rebuttal letter, she acknowledged that there were doctrinal differences between Mormonism and Christianity, but she took issue with the rest of Stoecker’s reasoning.

    Pitt wrote, “I think any Christian should spend much time in prayer before refusing to vote for a family man with high morals, business experience, who is against abortion and shares Christian conviction concerning homosexuality just because he is a Mormon.”

    Pitt went on to say, “Any Christian who does not vote or writes in a name is casting a vote for Romney’s opponent, Barack Hussein Obama – a man who sat in Jeremiah Wright’s church for years, did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer and is a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage....

    I applaud her but she's presenting the same picture of hypocrisy as is so many other Christians.

    I agree with her letter about the character of Obama. I disagree with the enthusiam she shows for Romney, as the best I can do is vote for him just short of being sick.

    My problem with this post is that I never heard of Brad Pitt, so have no idea who his mother is.

    I agree with what she says about Obama too. I just still can't get my hands around why, like her, so many Christians have an issue with Obama on issues of right and wrong yet turn around and endorse a man who worships a false god?

    What platform are we left with to preach the Gospel or tell anyone that they are doing that which is against Christ when we've given our O.K. for a man who worships a false god?

    Lord help us.

    I'm kinda glad that you've never heard of him.

    He's just some pretty boy Hollyweird type (runs in the circle of George Clooney) who has paraded around his fornication with Angelina Jolie for the past several years. Said they would not get married until every state allows for gay marriage. He was married to Jennifer Anniston for a few years.

    Starred in Ocean's Eleven and Troy and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I still haven't seen any of those Ocean Eleven movies :laugh:

    Brad Pitt starred in "Legends of the Fall" 1994. Great movie.
