Is This the Smoking Gun That Exposes the LDS Church Trying to Hide Its Involvement in Prop 8?

We love ourselves some smoking guns, and at today’s Perry trial, it appears there is one that links the Mormon Church to the fight to pass Prop 8.

“Emails and letters sent back and forth between the Prop 8 campaign and Catholic, LDS, and Evangelical churches” were at the center of a debate today between Judge Walker and the attorneys for both sides, over which could be admitted as evidence. But whether they make it into the case or not, the letters are becoming public evidence, thanks to the Courage Campaign highlighting them — including one from LDS that read: “With respect to Prop. 8 campaign, key talking points will come from campaign, but cautious, strategic, not to take the lead so as to provide plausible deniability or respectable distance so as not to show that church is directly involved.”

If the documents are entered into evidence, it means attorneys will be able to use them in front of the Supreme Court, which is where Perry is inevitably headed.
