Paul Ryan - Rock Star :)

I have to say after watching Paul Ryan's VP nomination acceptance speech last night, I believe republicans now have their own personal rock star! Ryan received a standing ovation and constant cheers as he stepped up to the podium. I know many have been waiting for this speech since the VP announcement a couple of weeks ago, and Ryan definitely did not disappoint!

Ryan was strong, on point, and stuck it to Obama with non dismissible facts (not that the media doesn't automatically try to discredit him). Ryan talked about the economy, debt, and the downward spiral America is in now. One fact that the MSM is trying to discredit Ryan on is the GM plant in Janesville, WI that has closed under Obama's watch. I would like to take a moment here and link a video that proves that Ryan was spot on about the closing of the plant. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56h1gobtkIo&feature=player_embedded

Ryan also spoke about religion, and the man Mitt Romney is. Ryan stated that they have different church backgrounds, but still have the same core beliefs. Ryan and Romney both are amazing examples of their faith and their convictions.

Paul Ryan can relate to voters, of all incomes and means. Ryan's family background has not always been easy, his dad died when he was young, and his mom worked constantly to provide for her kids. What a great example she was to them! You could see during Ryan's speech how grateful he is for his mom, and how much he looks up to her to this day.

In closing, one statement that Ryan made that really stuck out to me was about our founding principles, he said we are not going to change the principles we were founded on, we are going to get our country BACK to the principles we were founded on.

I have to say that Romney and Ryan provide true hope and change, not that false facade Obama promised four years ago. These two men will do what is needed for this country, not just what is popular that day.

God bless! Romney/Ryan 2012!!

Chick-Fil-A Appreciation - Liberal backfire

I was honored to stand alongside great conservatives and patriots today, like Rick and Karen Santorum, and Mike Huckabee, for Chick-Fil-A appreciation day!!

I am not sure how many of you kept an eye today on the news, and the turnout for Chick-Fil-A appreciation day, but the sheer number of people is amazing. If you are on Facebook at all, there are TONS of pictures of the hundreds of thousands of people that turned up in support today!

Now I know the left is trying to twist the words of the CFA President and say that he is anti gay etc. What the president said though was that he supports traditional marriage, and the family. Last time I checked, we were still a nation of free speech, at least for now. The left has called for a boycott of CFA and is trying to push them out of cities and off of college campuses.

I think this so called boycott, has been a blessing in disguise :) Chick-Fil-A's sales have skyrocketed today. This gave conservatives the chance, not to just stand up for traditional marriage, but to stand up for freedom of speech and freedom of religion!! Even in the cities, such as Chicago, that were calling for a boycott, the turnout was high and the CFA's were busier than ever!!!

I praise God that I live in a country, where we can peacefully protest, or show our support for a person or business who stand up for our rights as conservatives and Christians!!
