Serving Our Country

I jotted down a quote but am not sure who said it.
"Serving our country is above politics."
Mitt Romney is the kind of guy who is prepared to let his service to America speak louder than his words ever could.

Talking a Lot But Not Saying Anything

One Sunday after church, we quizzed our children around the dinner table,
"What did you learn in Sunday School?"
One of our sons replied, "The teacher talked a lot, but he didn't say anything."
His response was funny at the time, but now . . . whenever Obama's tired phrases of fame, blame, and shame are heard, it's not that funny anymore.

Mitt Romney is Uniquely Qualified

Mitt Romney is uniquely qualified to be president of the United States because of his character, his ability to work successfully with others, his heart for America and its citizens, and his success in the world of business.

American Exceptionalism

Definitions vary for the term "American exceptionalism." For now, I like my own: 

The United States of America is a nation apart in that it protects and promotes stewardship rights to individual property and liberty of thought, word and action. It is also a nation apart because its motto is "In God We Trust."  

While it is evident in the present election that many Americans no longer believe in the ideology of American exceptionalism, many still do. 

And I am one of them.

Obamanesia

Ok, you're probably not going to hear Romney use the word "Obamanesia" in an attempt to marginalize the small-minded "Romnesia" that is being used by a certain president and his campaign. Why not? Because . . . really? Mitt Romney has more class than that.
That said, I can use the word "Obamanesia" in reference to the distance Obama is trying to put between his rhetoric, his failed policies and his failed presidency because I have a lot less patience and a lot less class than Mitt Romney has.
