Category: Ronald Reagan
I truly miss this man, and something tells me that if we had another one like him in the Oval Office right now, that the world might not be on fire right now.
Alas, there will never be another Reagan, although many will try. But he was, unfortunately, one of a kind. Oh, how I miss this man.
All I can say to my favorite political star is “bravo, Sarah.” I love this video AND this woman.

Sarah did a fabulous job on this, and if you want to read the text of the speech, you can check it out here on her Facebook page.

Marco Rubio gave the GOP weekly address this weekend, and reminded us of two things: 1) Why the Democrats so feared him, and; 2) why America is such an exceptional nation. A portion of the transcript from the LA Times blog:
America is the single greatest nation on earth, a place without equal in the history of all mankind. A place built on free enterprise, where the employee can become the employer. Where small businesses are started every day in a spare bedroom and where someone like me, the son of a bartender and maid, can become a United States Senator.
I know about the unique exceptionalism of our country. Not because I read about it in a book, I’ve seen it through my own eyes. You see, I was raised in a community of exiles, by people who lost their country, people who once had dreams like we do today but had to come to a foreign shore to find them.
For some their dreams were answered here in America, but many others found a new dream. To leave their children with the kinds of opportunities they themselves never had. And that is what we must do as a nation. To fulfill our sacred obligation to leave the next generation of Americans a better America than the one we inherited. And that is what this election was about.
In the past two years, Republicans listened to the American people and what they said is that it was time for a course correction.
The past two years provided a frightening glimpse at what could become of our great nation if we continue down the current path: wasteful spending, a growing debt and a government reaching ever further into our lives, even into our health care decisions.
It is nothing short of a path to ruin, a path that threatens to diminish us as a nation and a people. One that makes America not exceptional, not unique, but more like the rest of the world.
As Republicans, here is what our commitment should be to you. Our focus must not be simply winning elections. It must be to ensure the next generation inherits a strong, free and prosperous America.
I hope there are many more Marco Rubios to come, and if there are, the Democrats will have probably seen their last days of power.
My apologies for the sometimes-shakiness of the video, but I kept having folks move in front of my camera, so just bear with me. Michele Bachmann was just one of the fine speakers for this dinner. George Will gave the Keynote Address, and blew the doors off the room. I honestly never knew George was such a staunch conservative. It really makes me wonder what goes through his mind now, as he has to contend with Christiane Amanpour as the new ABC News’ “This Week” on Sundays.
Anyway, Michele’s speech was not lacking either. She got dozens of rousing rounds of applause, and was quite the crowd-pleaser. Looking very elegant in a turquoise dress and an upswept hairdo, this intelligent lady seems to have it right when she talks about what this country needs in a good solid conservative leader. I think there are stellar things in her future, and, in turn, in the future of our country. She’s not going anywhere. I can’t wait to see where she goes from here.
