| Description | Dr. Robert Jeffress, a Dallas pastor and leader of the Southern Baptist Convention introduced Rick Perry before a nearly full crowd at the Values Voter Summit in Washington Friday.
He also gave Perry his formal endorsement. After Perry’s speech, Jeffress expounded to reporters about his belief (and the formal position of the SBC) that Mormonism is “a cult.”
That’s right — he went there.
Jeffress told TPM after the speech that Perry welcomed his endorsement in person, but he stressed that he doesn’t know if Perry endorses his view on Mormonism which, of course, happens to be the faith of Perry’s chief rival for the nomination, Mitt Romney. |
