Here’s Paul Ryan from Wednesday night. We also heard from another slate of great speakers, and learned just how many of our current crop of conservative officeholders DID build it themselves. Sen. Rob Portman showed why he shouldn’t have been tapped for VP, and T-Paw exhibited his usual grace and charm. See Wednesday night’s pictures.
Meanwhile, back at the “peanut gallery”, Mike and Mar-Mar will be keeping an eagle eye (literally given the height of our vantage point) on the proceedingHs, and uploading photos as fast as we can. Updated – see below for photos and pithy captions/commentary – click any picture for full screen. (Special thanks to Skip for the tag-team operation posting the photos)
Mike is a British import of almost 40 years, who was a conservative in the days of Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan.
A staunch constitutionalist, Mike espouses all good causes toward the libertarian side of conservative – EG he who governs least, governs best. He believes that the Declaration, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights mean what they say, and that candidates for office should take their oaths of office seriously.
Here to defend, without irony “Your rights as Englishmen from distant and tyrannical government”, Mike knows whereof he speaks and exhorts all US citizens to live, breathe and teach our history and our constitution.
