Mitt on Monday

A friend of mine from Florida recently posted this on her blog.  I thought it summed up perfectly why I to am voting for Mitt Romney.  She was kind enough to let me legally plagiarize her sentiments: 
 
"I am writing this post, not to persuade anyone or to start an argument, but because I want my children to read it one day in the future and know where I stand and what I stand for. 
How proud I am to be an American. 
I love my country. 
 I love, respect, admire and am so grateful to those who serve our country to protect the freedoms that we enjoy. 
We live in the greatest nation on earth. 
I will never vote for a man who won't put his hand on his heart in front of that sacred flag that so many have given their lives for. I don't care if it was "just" for the the national anthem that it wasn't there, It should have been. 
I will never vote for a man who apologizes for America and what she stands for. {here}
I will never vote for a man who wants a communist society. If you want a communist society, Get out of America. There are plenty of other places you can go. 
I will never vote for a dishonest man. 
I will never vote for a man who wants universal healthcare. It is garbage. It doesn't work. Check other countries track records, or talk to someone who has dealt with that system.
I will never vote for a man who wants to "spread the wealth." You are not entitled to a car, a house, or even food. Yes, I said you are NOT entitled to food. " In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,"{Genesis 3:19} God's way is that you work for what you get. I am not cold and heartless, On the contrary, I would and do help anyone that is struggling, but trying.
 I will never vote for a man who wants to force me to give. Hey, Guess what? If you want to help people, and give them your hard earned money. You still can! But we should never be forced to "help" those who won't help themselves. That's a disgusting thought to me.
I will never vote for a man who's policies go against the constitution. Who's policies go against the foundation that our country was built upon. 
I will never vote for a man who is friends with people who hate America. 
If you have anything but love and pride for this country, We are going to have issues.
I will vote for a man of integrity. 
I will vote for a man who knows how to manage money.
I will vote for a man who is a man of God. Who's actions reflect that.
I will vote for a man who loves his country and the freedoms we enjoy. 
I will vote for a man who knows how to take companies that are in the crapper and make them successful. Hey, That's the boat that America is in right now. He has the track record, to PROVE that he knows how to fix economic issues.
I will vote for a man who will not fail. 

This election will be a turning point for America. 
I want my children to live in a country that is free, successful, And respected. 

The Book of Mormon states that America will remain a free land as long as the people worship the God of the land. It also assures us that “unto the righteous” this land “shall be blessed forever.”

AS LONG AS. 
I am not voting in ignorance. And neither should you.
"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be."
  --  Thomas Jefferson"

Thanks Kyrsten!
