“Are they prepared to listen to reasoned arguments articulated by Ryan about the need for entitlement reform, or will they succumb to simplistic liberal cant about pushing grandma over the cliff?”
The choice of the electorate in November: “Are they prepared to listen to reasoned arguments articulated by Ryan about the need for entitlement reform, or will they succumb to simplistic liberal cant about pushing grandma over the cliff?”
Sadly, at this moment in the campaign we don’t know what the electorate will do. What we do know is that the Democrats are going to use some of the most absurd, hateful, and despicable attacks against both Romney and Ryan, as they did in 2008 against Sarah Palin and have so far against Romney. It is their idea of civility.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Let me provide an interesting real world perspective on this issue, I have an employee, she voted for Obama and is emotionally attached to
him because she like all liberals / socialists is an emotitonalist.
If you talk to her she is actually a practical conservative person but identifies politically as a “liberal” and has a default mistrust of Republicans.
She comes to work this morning and the first thing she says to me is that “she is excited about Ryan”, she was very positive.
(This was initiated by her, she went out of her way to tell me this )
It looks like her love affair with Obama is coming to an end.
This, believe me is a positive indicator for Romney. Ryan, besides being a conservative that can properly communicate is ideas is a young,
good looking next gen man and provides a viable other choice.
This will have a real world effect on the election as base and transparent as this appears.
Paul Ryan is a true asset in many ways.
I’m wondering if not just democrats but also republicans are willing to listen to reasoned arguments articulated by Ryan , I hope so somebodies got to something . hopefully whatever happens in the election politicians will be able to solve some problems afterward . its going to be interesting for sure
Every time someone brings up Ryans proposed plan to change Medicare for those under 55 at some point in the future, Democrats should be forced to defend Obama’s $700b cuts to Medicare that actually happened.
Yes, interesting for sure and when the people realize that while Ryan’s plan proposes dealing with Medicare at some point, Obamacare
actually does by current passed law of the land initiate the destruction of Medicare as it functions now, they will realize the logic disconnect
that the left and the Obama adminstration insists that they buy into.
It’s like Bill Clinton who essentially asked intelligent people to suspend their logic and common sense during the Lewinskey situation while
under oath, these are techniques of the left.
Ryan however must maintain his composure and remain humble, the only thing at this point that can bring him down is his ego.
It appears he has it under control.
I just read a headline, it read ” Ryan appears to be channeling Locke” (John Locke), how unique, an American politician openly speaks about
where the peoples rights actually come from, and guess what, IT”S NOT FROM THE GOVERNMENT!
What a revelation.
The Constitution is where our and the planets future resides, I want more of this kind of conversation buy the people who are elected and
swear an oath to the document that lies at our foundation and not just ignore it and do as they please when in power.
(this apply’s to both parties for the past 50 or so years)
If only elections turned on well-reasoned arguments. Sadly, this is rarely true. I fear that Romney has cleared a path for Dear Leader’s reelection. Had he chosen Rubio, he could concentrate on Ohio, Virginia, and Wisconsin. Now Axelrod will pour huge resources into Florida, forcing Romney to defend that state, and still have to make pickups elsewhere. Axelrod won’t stop throwing granny off a cliff. Her whole family will follow.
Axel Rod (Dabney Coleman) is revealing himself to be a desperate manipulator as is his master ( or is Axelrod the master?).
Rubio will do a fine job of securing Florida, just imagin Rubio and Ryan at the same podium under the Florida sun, two good looking,
articulate conservatives talking to adults about what must be talked about.
Their counter, Debbie Wasserman -Shultz, need I say more?
Watch how much money pours into the RNC and associated PACS, maybe two to one ?
The Dem strategy is based in fear and class warfare, the people are sick and tired of hearing this BS.
They will wake up, they must wake up, its their responsibility.
