What a great story to apply to the current situation in America!! It says it all about you and your family that you would tell this story. Your Dad has fought tirelessly throughout his life to preserve the freedom that our forefathers handed over to us. Our soldiers today not only go to protect our freedom, but they go to inspire it in places where freedom can't exist. The current president and many in his administration don't seem to get this. They prefer to apologize for America as if we are problem. He sets deadlines for withdrawal and enjoys cozying up dictators around the world instead sending a clear message that we stand for freedom. On the pretext of helping Americans his policies at home enslave more to dependency.

If this coming election is close we all should be scared stiff. Obama has instituted reforms incentivizing dependence on the government and incentivizing corruption. To be successful under Obama is to be corrupt because self-reliance, hard work and determination will no longer lead to success. Freedom is our God-Given right and Obama believes in neither Freedom nor God. Sorry to be so harsh, but the Democrats and the media have created this situation while Republicans dither. Your Dad sees the dangers and is the only one capable of Big Ideas. We need a 3rd party called the Freedom Party. Newt=$2.50 per gallon.

Perseverance through the low points and reliance on God for guidance comes through your writing loud and clear. Your Dad reflects this as he continues to articulately make his points. He is fearless in taking on political correctness, the media, and liberals who have put our country in a big ditch. Keep writing and keep living with a purpose-driven life.

When she went GAGA for Christy it was obvious something had changed. She rails against RINOs and can't see that she has become one.

Of all the things to write about you picked Jesus who knowingly and willingly allowed himself to be tortured and assassinated in the most humiliating and degrading way. It says a lot about your values and about your family. No one in public life has been mistreated more than your Dad. He has been smeared unfairly and mischaracterized, his motives ridiculed and his mistakes magnified while others sanctimoniously judge him. Yet, he cheerfully perseveres and puts forth cogent solutions to the country's problems and documents the history of the country he loves. Very proud to stand with you. Your Grandparents must be smiling down from Heaven at the legacy they have.

Dr. Jake, Sadly, you missed the point. It is all about love and telling everybody. Life is meaningless without family. What do you expect the girl to say? She has a Masters, a regular column on Townhall and the courage to face put downs from you. What have you done to make the world a better place?

The media and Democrats will steer the debate away from the economy at every turn. Contraception is exhibit A. Thank God, your Dad is driving the debate and forcing Obama to act somewhat like a president. It is reminiscent of the way Clinton was forced to act like a president, too and reform welfare and balance the budget. Please persevere and never quit. More people will pay attention the closer to November we get. Romney and Santorum are trying to mimic Newt. What a huge complement. Go Newt!!!

Getting this is soothing to the soul and completely verifies your authenticity. Thank you. We took our 4 boys skiing in Colorado, too. The memories are glue that holds our family together. Jimmy is a lucky guy and your love for him comes through loud and clear. We are so glad you could get away with your family and keep your life in balance. Your message is simple yet so powerful---It is all about love and telling everybody. Your Dad has that same passion for America. We need him so much.

You nailed it. Your Dad has consistently stood for freedom and for conservatism and when the great masses wake up he will continue to rise. He is the only one who can articulate common sense American values and counter Obama's march toward socialism. Newt=$2.50/gal. and real solutions to the problems we face. Moderate Rich Romney and young Santorum are just not up to the task of making Real Changes. Santorum needs to raise his family and come back in 2016.

Speaker Gingrich is a visionary leader with specific plans based on the lessons of American History. Like no one else in the country he is prepared to implement the scale of changes we need. Talk is cheap and Obama and Romney are mostly talk and their record of experience is meager compared to the candidate who was 3rd in line for the Presidency. The media will minimize his contribution and the Establishment will try to force Romney down our throats unless people start paying attention. We are praying the south wakes up soon. Go Georgia!!!
