When they use those words they aren’t saying lies and untruths. How could they?

Indeed. We must faithfully pray for Paul Ryan.

Lord, hear our prayer.

Watched NBC, Andrea Mitchell and Brian Williams both said it was an excellent speech by Ryan. They seemed rather excited—— could that possibly be true?
We will see tomorrow when they get their orders from the Obama peeps.

They are doing a nice job of showing women as loving, smart, strong and worthy of respect. Quite the comparison to the bitter Dims. Well done.

Yes, seriously. Pray for the protection and welfare of the candidates and their families. Don’t stop praying this.

You just have to laugh MSNBC has become a poor parody of a Saturday Night Live skit. They are so bad they are funny. It like watching a group of high school kids do the “news” on a high school TV station.

Lord, hear our prayer.

If God is for us, who can be against us? No weapon formed against us will stand. God's will be done in America.

I am counting the days, minutes, and seconds til the Commie Marxist is OUT of the White House. God Bless Paul Ryan, WOW what a fantastic speech!!! And even when that whack job Pinko Commie tried to interrupt his speech he was poised and calm(By the way how the hell was that whacko even allowed in the building?)

“Well, Romney won’t go after Obama the way Ryan has tonight. He just needs to connect.”

Agreed. Romney shouldn’t even try.

Let the VP and other surrogates continue to eviscerate the Kenyan. Mitt needs to come across as a normal, compassionate guy, and he also needs to begin outlining what specific things he will do when he assumes office.

This guy giving the closing prayer looks and sounds like Burl Ives! I’m waiting for him to break into “Silver and Gold.”

"...a little bitty tear let me down..." LOL
