Really nice. Extremely impressed at the obvious self-effort it took for him to get this far and be so articulate and self-controlled in his presentation.

As a personal reflection, I think we can benefit our cause, and getting more Democrats to recognize it, by DEFINING "conservative" when we use the term. Specifically, I find it useful (for both others and myself) to occasionally remember and reflect that "conservative" means "one who practices conservation ... of nature ... and all good things we have inherited, including liberty." The turn Liberal, in turn, derives from "liberty" -- as in freedom to speak and freedom to chose ones own way provided it remains peaceful and within the agreed law of the land, the Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

What is wrong with valuing BOTH liberty and conserving? Where is the conflict -- and who is actually practicing what they purport to believe? Actions speak much louder than words. "By the fruits of their labors shall you know them." Conservatives who don't conserve liberty are not conservative. Liberals who do not conserve liberty are not liberal.

It’s all about Donald Trump, or more precisely, stopping Donald Trump from ever running for office again, hopefully by indicting him and finding him guilty of something. The thing is, yes, Trump used “Make America Great Again” as his campaign slogan, but the term MAGA has taken on a life of its own outside of Trump. President Joe Biden pretended to make a case between mainstream RINOs he can work with and “extreme MAGA” who incite violence and want to take away our rights and freedoms; they want to ban contraception and same-sex marriage and impose restrictions on abortion, or at least that’s how he opened his speech Thursday night.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy gave a prebuttal, but this MAGA Republican ought to have been given a prime-time slot to rebut Biden’s speech. Most MAGA Republicans want to make America great again. What does that mean? Give Alma Ohene-Opare five minutes to explain:

Justin Hart (@justinhart) ~ This is one of the most articulate defenses of MAGA I’ve ever heard. Share this!

Fuzzy Chimp (@fuzzychimpcom) ~ This is why this “evil MAGA Republican” shtick ticks me off. Not just because this man is awesome, but because of the cheap slander from the left who insist MAGA people hate him because of his skin color. MAGA folks I know love people like this because they share the same values.

Barbara (@smithba444) ~ This is amazing. Thank you sir, you are an American patriot.

Tom Spencer (@trsmiami) ~ Thank you for posting this. It is just the thing I needed today to lighten my spirits and invigorate my hope for our country. I hope this gets passed on millions of times.

Ed Preston (@edpreston) ~ More immigrants like him, please.

Nicholas Dix (@NicholasDix9) ~ Thank you. Your message was thoughtful, your message was humble, your message was patriotic, and your message was respectful (I could not have done that). You made me want to be more respectful.

cazzz (@Caz_zzz) ~ A truly wonderful gentleman.

We’re sorry that Biden doesn’t understand that “MAGA” transcends Donald Trump and thinks that “MAGA” automatically means extremist or “MAGA” implies support for the Capitol riots. We need some Republicans in power to be giving speeches just like this one.
