>>Kid Rock is a cool conservative rock star.
 
Yeah, real winner ya got there super genius.
 
Do all your "cool conservatives" get  thrown in jail because they don't like the music in the strip club they're patronizing?

Rock Star - Kid Rock
(a/k/a Robert James Ritchie)

Kid Rock was arrested on a misdemeanor assault charge in February 2005, in Nashville, after getting into an altercation at Christie's Cabaret. He got into a fight with the strip club's DJ over his choice of music. Kid Rock pleaded no contest to criminal assault and was given a suspended sentence of 11 months and 29 days in jail. The DJ, Jay Campos, who suffered a mark on his face and a pair of broken glasses, is suing Kid Rock for $575,000.

 

Pretty much sums up the "consvervatism" of the Myth campaign though.  P H O N E Y.

“Already working I have had 2 Catholic friends on FB question whether he is a good Catholic because the Bishops denounced his budget plan and he supports the death penalty. This happened this morning.”

We know that Obama is out to destroy Christianity. No matter what Ryan is way better than Obama. The choice is clear cut.

Ryan is socially conservative. The Church is not.

Paul Ryan: The Esquire Interview

The presumptive vice-presidential candidate spoke out last October on America’s fight over taxes, the national debt, the federal budget, and what kind of people we will be — to the point, the Wisconsin congressman said, that “the country is going to be won or lost in two to five years”

By Tucker Carlson

Word is, Biden's taking extended vacations because they may be his last fully taxpayer funded vacations he takes as VP before he gets replaced by Hillary.

Does America REALLY want to add a 'gender card' to the 'race card' we already have in the White House? I'm thinkin' HELL NO!

By “our” side having control of scotus appointments surely you’re referring to stellar former picks like Oconnor, Souter, and Roberts?

And wait - here's more "coool":
 

Robert "Kid Rock" Ritchie

Waffle House Fight

Robert James Ritchie - Kid Rock Mug Shot

Robert James Ritchie - Kid RockMug Shot

Robert Ritchie (aka Kid Rock) was arrested in October 2007, on a misdemeanor charges of simple battery after he and his entourage got into a fight with a customer at a Waffle House in Atlanta, Georgia.
 
 
The WAFFLE fighter.   LOL, well that fits the Myth campaign - where the (lesser) weavils W A F F L E but they don't fall down.

Did you remind your friends that their Messiah Obama is FORCING the Catholic Church to embrace abortion and that the church is also SUING their boy wonder for assaulting their religious freedom? With a Catholic/Christian hater in the WH, how could anyone criticize Ryan for not being a ‘good Catholic’ and do it with a straight face?

Two northerners but I like Ryan a lot.

and he might bring Wisconsin by a nose which would help.

I reckon they know what they have locked up...the Old South mostly and the usual mountain west and most and the Plains.

Ryan can sure debate and does so with better projection than Polo Ad

at least it wasn’t a two man RINO and Ryan in line for POTUS nominee down the road looks nice

Now you know why willard picked Ryan: Virgil Goode. Also why the announcement was made in VA. Willard no doubt wanted some lib squish that wouldn’t take some of the limelight. But reality was about to bite him in the posterior. Hard.

Kudos to willard, I think he made the best choice amongst those available. I still won’t vote for willard but this is a good step towards quieting his more vocal conservative critics.

An Doug are assuming the VP would have zero influence on the President in discussions about such matters.

As for myself, I have yet to vote for the perfect politician in 40 years of casting votes.

In 2012, the choice has now come into undeniable focus, and it is time to choose for us and our posterity.

And you “it’s all about abortion” people have screwed us more than once with your support for anyone as long as they’re strongly pro-life, but turn out to be duds. Look at Roberts sitting on the Supreme Court. There wasn’t much known about him or what he’d do on many issues but we heard how pro-life he was and wowsa that got all the rock conservatives who put abortion first as an issue all excited. Now look. We have Obamacare thanks to Roberts; a program that includes tax payer funded birth control and abortion for any age and up to third trimester.

I’m not saying you shouldn’t have it as an important issue, but it can’t be the only thing you see when looking at a candidate.

Living our principles includes taking responsibility for their results.

Allowing or furthering or doing nothing to stop this regime’s power does not give one the high ground morally or on principles.

The primary mission of this election, on principle, is stopping this marxist fascist regime.

“Yes, and in the real world, I put my principles first.”

In other words; you will never participate in politics on anything other than a local level.
No personal attack against you; just stating reality.

I hope so, TomGuy, for the sake of America and all that is Good, I hope so.

America needs a Champion of Freedom in order to prevail, and she may now have exactly that.

I really feel good, Tom, really, really good :)
