Love Mia

The Republican convention began a day late in Tampa on Tuesday.  While I only watched the prime time speeches, the best speech of the evening happened early.  So early that it was not covered by anyone but Fox News.

I doubt whether MSNBC, NBC, CBS or ABC would have televised it regardless of when it occurred.  Mia Love, delivered a speech that I can only describe as democratic poison. The Obama security team, MSNBC, NBC, CBS and ABC, wouldn't risk airing the speech because it made so much sense and effectively attacked the foundation of modern socialism.

For those like I who missed it, here is the transcript:

Praise, in support for Mitt Romney.

Let me tell you about the America I know.

My parents immigrated to this country with ten dollars in their pocket,
and the hope … that the America that they had heard about … really did exist.
When tough times came, they didn’t look to Washington, they looked within.

So the America I grew up knowing ... was centered in self reliance,
and filled with the possibilities of living the American dream.

The America I know is grounded in the determination found in patriots and pioneers,
in small businesses with big ideals.
It's found in the farmers who work in the beauty of our landscape, and our heroic military.
It's found in the Olympic Athletes
and every child who looks at the seemingly impossible and says, “I can do that.”
That is the America I know!

President Obama’s version of America is a divided one --
often pitting us against each other bases on our income level, gender, and social status.
His policies have failed us!
We're NOT better off than we were 4 years ago,
and NO rhetoric, bumper sticker, or Hollywood campaign ad can change that.

Mr. President,
I'm here to tell you the American People are awake
and we're not buying what you're selling in 2012.

The American Dream isn't just my story.
It isn't just your story.
It's our story.
It's a story ... of human struggle, standing up and striving for more.
Our story has been told for over 200 years … with small steps and giant leaps;
from a woman on a bus ... to a man with a dream;
from the bravery of the greatest generation, to the innovators and entrepreneurs of today.
This is our story.
This is our America.
This is the America we know … because WE BUILT IT.

Thank you.
Yes we did.
Thank you. With Paul Ryan,
With Mitt Romney as President,
and Paul Ryan as Vice President,
we can restore and revive that America,
that American Story we know and love.
The world will know it.
Our children will tell it and our grandchildren will possess it for years to come!

God bless America.

This is our time.
We are truly THE ...BEST ... LAST ... HOPE ... ON ... EARTH !

Thank you.

I especially liked her mention of Dr. King and Rosa Parks.  You see, Mia Love is a Black female conservative.  She has the authority to say "They were talking about me!  They were speaking of a day of equal opportunity, and based on personal responsibility, not entitlement!"  Mia wins day one.
