As a Mormon I see a lot of things in this article that I agree with. As a Liberal I am inclined to understand the point of view of many Liberals even though I largely disagree with them on the issues that put them them at odds with the Mormon church.
However I'm also inclined to believe that its more common to find a Mormon Democrat than it is to find a Muslim Republican, simply because the Democratic party really is a big(@ss) tent.
On the other hand, the point below from the article is EXCELLENT.

So let's get this straight: In the consensus view of modern American liberalism, it is hilarious to mock Mormons and Mormonism but outrageous to mock Muslims and Islam. Why? Maybe it's because nobody has ever been harmed, much less killed, making fun of Mormons...
