This looks like a Christian Revival Show from the 1920s!

Rick Santorum 2012=Pat Buchanan 1992?

[retromike22]

Lol at the end it was like "by the way vote for Mitt Romney"

[retromike22]

I feel like Christie's, Pawlenty's, Huckabee's, and Rice's speeches are all 2016 sneak previews.

[retromike22]

But the approval for Solyndra began under Bush!

I hate the GOP phrase "our rights come from God." I don't remember "right to free religion, free press, etc" in the Book of Genesis.

[retromike22]

I really dont like the 'our rights come from nature and god and not from government'....not only is it insulting to the non-religious, it is clearly not accurate. Our rights come from the constitution, the founding document of the government

lol same post at same time. Hello new friend!

[retromike22]

haha "even Oprah was crying" Clint Eastwood made the best joke!

[retromike22]

Who is Clint talking to down there?

So many of the speakers themes appear to be: "My parents and/or I had a hard early life. And that is what America is about. Hard life. And Obama is un-American because he's trying to make your lives easier"

[retromike22]

Anyone getting a Ward Cleaver vibe?

[retromike22]

"We looks to our communities, faith, etc for help..."

You mean... they didn't build that? They had HELP?!

[retromike22]

Wait, that's it?!

[retromike22]

Mitt's right. In early 2009 there was no deficit, the economy was booming, we were at peace, the country was united in purpose, dogs and cats found common ground, unicorns danced on the streets paved with gold

Man those were the good old days, I remember I had health care insurance through my parents' plan thanks to Bushcare, it sucks that Obama repealed it.
