    I was worried. I'm not now. It's been so long since I've heard one of our representatives sound like a true statesman. Even though I don't agree with Speaker Johnson on some political positions, it's simply wonderful to have someone speak from a place of principle. God bless you, sir.

Will his bought bombs be killing innocent people? Will he be first in battle to lead the charge? All those that support war should be leading the battle and be willing to lose their life to protect our country and in other countries , if they believe it is the right thing to do.

    Mike is such a genuine guy - awesome choice and so refreshing! When he speaks he's not trying to sell you anything or put one over on you just stating the facts as is.
