So did I . Problem is , the MSM is ignoring anything positive re : Romney . Hope he takes it up a notch and continues hammering away until election day .
One of my favorite out-takes...The President’s policies have made it harder to recover from the deepest recession in seventy years … exposed the military to cuts that no one can justify … compromised our national-security secrets … and in dealings with other nations, given trust where it is not earned, insult where it is not deserved, and apology where it is not due.
(Confidential to Romney ad agency, use this clip in t.v. and radio political ads.)
Well, I do believe that I'll read the speech yet again!
.
This speech was stunning. Delivery was 75% of it.
This speech and the comments the other day regarding how backwards Obama had it in his comments about “roads and bridges” and defined it as foreign to the American Experience could not have been more correct, nor delivered any better.
Very pleasant surprises, to say the least.
Thank you so much for printing the entire speech. It makes it a lot easier to tie together the various points in his speech, and quickly review topic length.
I found it very interesting that his usual preppy/neighborhood chit-chat was absent in his speech.
Gone too were his “I understand how the economy works, so just shut up and trust me” presentation that dominated his sorry Primary speeches.
This is the first time after the Primary that Romney was actually, SERIOUSLY trying to audition for the job of The President of the United States of America.
In summary, Romney showed respect for the values of his audience, and the values of America.
It was his best speech yet.
BTW, Obama’s speeches show only arrogance, and never respect for the values of his audience or America.
This was showcased in Obama’s Inaugural Speech, which was really a Declaration of War against the values of the audience, America, and the US Constitution.
The more that Romney can show that contrast between himself and Obama the better.
In 1941, Henry Luce called on his countrymen – just then realizing their strength – “to create the first great American century.” And they succeeded: together with their allies, they won World War II, they rescued Europe, they defeated Communism, and America took its place as leader of the free world. Across the globe, they fought, they bled, they led. They showed the world the extraordinary courage of the American heart and the generosity of the American spirit.

” - - - the MSM is ignoring anything positive re : Romney - - - “
The MSM is embarrassed the they did not Vet Obama before the 2008 National Election.
Hence, the MSM will do everything in its power to defend and protect their creepy, commie Kenyan, now and in the future.
Nana, you are an embarassment...you must be some kind of troll. You obviously have no clue to what Romney said in his speech to the VFW. You are also an embarassment to Tennessee, a state I admire, respect, and for some years I called home.
Anyone have a source for a video of this speech?
Thank you...
How did the Vets receive him? Cooly? Warmly? Enthusiastically?

Tennessee Nana is one of the people on here you folks will learn to just ignore. She just needs to drink her prune juice and go on to bed.
” - - - Romney was referring to a century. “
Maybe, maybe not. I thought that the progression of events that Romney listed were attributed to “The Greatest Generation.”
Reagan was a member of The Greatest Generation, and the defeat of Communism can be attributed, in large part, to his efforts.
To sum up such a large amount of time in one sentence is bound to omit some key events, which will vary with the audience.
I thought a major theme of Romney’s speech was to grab the “Torch” carried by The Greatest Generation and continue on as they did.
Your thoughts?
Neither one of you two can claim tact to be one of your strong suits.
IOW, stop these personal attacks on those whose opinions differ from yours.
“Neither one of you two can claim tact...”
Tact...a keen sense of what is appropriate, tasteful, or aesthetically pleasing...
Yup, and when tact is a deserved choice in a situation tact it is. When PC is the dictated choice, then tact is is not.
But yes, I will ignore her next time, and let her get on with her prune juice... :)
