Well at least I missed the boehner bar speech last night.

I’m hoping Ryan can somehow makeup for this cast of light weights.

I will say Condi is smart and a great leader. But not sure if she can enthuse anyone.

No TP for Dr. Rice. She is speaking the old fashioned way.

Condi is always lovely. -

Condi - peace really DOES come through strength.

The foundation of our strength is our economy. The world sees America and sees a govt’ that can’t live within its means.

a govt that loses control of its spending(?), it loses control of its destiny.l

Yep....always liked Condi. Heck I liked everybody Bush put together...even when I didn’t always agree with them. Anybody that doesn’t miss Bush now...is crazy. He was usually easy to coral back to conservatism when all was said and done. He loved this country without a doubt. Quite unlike the Marxist we have now!

I am so glad that Condi has a prime time spot. This is the message America as a whole needs. I wonder if MSNBC is blacking out her speech tonight?
