Looks like they had to change web hosts. Hopefully their new host gives them the boot they deserve too.

Exactly as I predicted when you first blogged about this story, James. Except the connection to the Huckabee campaign is not yet solidly established, Just the fact that Huckabee's campaign clearly had inside information on this.

It doesn't sound like the the contents of the book need any serious debunking here, so I'll forebear.

Say, Daryl, does your complete lack of morals and your incredible personal failure ever make you want to, I dunno, kill yourself?

Just a follow-up to a story I found amusing.

Hey, Tlaloc, how was that Star Trek convention last week? I don't hate Reid because he is a mormon, I hate him because he is a huge democrat idiot liberal! (sorry, I'm being redundantly redundant).

James, those "dozen reporters and four photographers" may have had nothing better to do, but apparently you have nothing better to write about.

Don't Mormons believe that Satan and James Joyner are brothers?

Some people leave the Church but just cannot leave it alone.

Does anyone know if the book addresses Harry Reid? I don't quite understand why it is bad to consider a Mormon for President, but just dandy to have one running the Senate.

Reid's a democrat. The anti-mormon bigotry is pretty much all from the protestant fundies, who aren't, you know, typical democratic constituents.

The domain exists and points to a real host. As a real host myself though, I'd be willing to bet they were shut down for spamming.

The premise of this idea that Romney's going to have fame and fortune taken away by the LDS church if he doesn't let Gordon B Hinckley pull the puppet strings, is completely ridiculous. Look at him, a former member, making an outrageous book, and no mormon mafia's after Mr Moody.

Nothing Mitt's done in the past, at the Olympics, in business, or as governor, was ordered by the LDS church. People who bring up this as a concern are either badly informed, or bad informers.

This is a ridiculous book and article. I am LDS/Mormon and have never taken a blood oath. Furthermore, we sustain Hinckley as a prophet, we don't swear an oath to him. And again, for the last time - God has no conflict with the constitution of the US as he inspired the document. There would be no revelation to the contrary. If Michael Moody was a Mormon then he must not have never attended church, studied our doctrine, or learned how to read and distinguish his right hand from his left. Praise goes out to the Evangelicals who buy into it and prove that evolution truly doesn't exist (as your brain would have evolved by now).
