i watched and listened very carefully to Speaker Johnson's acceptance speech.

This is a very principled man; I was very impressed with his poise, humility, and humor.

Being a Christian conservative, and proud to talk about God publicly is a refreshing change from, say, Pelosi...ain't it?

I dont see the local bunch on this thread yet or those commies who were bashing Gaetz about how stupid he was ousting McCarthy. Those people are part of the reason this country is going down the drain. They dont know how to fight, or too afraid to fight. You lose every fight you dont start.

The commies dominated every post for 3 weeks, crying and complaining that the future was doomed and Gaetz was a villain. I bet they all had one thing in common, hatred for Trump amd love for Ukraine.

Finally an evangelical christian, God fearing, Bible believing speaker.

Things will not be like before.

Amen, Brother. I pray he does an excellent job as Speaker as a witness to others.

I wanted Jordan, or nothing. Like the good people of Rock Ridge, I am willing to give Johnson a chance.

He comes in with a lot of good will, a fair wind at his back, from the MAGA voters. May he live up to the promise in that den of snakes. I will definitely pray for his success.

Absolutely keep Mike Johnson in prayer.

But I think God will bless him mightily not because of our prayers but because of what God promised those who are persecuted for their faith. Be assured, democrats will persecute him because of his faith.

It will be an amazing sight for the wise, who see it, knowing God is blinding the persecuters from seeing that their persecution is what is making him successful.

Gaetz took on a corrupt political machine and won. Even if it had not worked, he did the right thing.

My earlier expectations have been confirmed in Spades. He is a God-loving devout Christian man, and we could not have chosen any better man for the job.
