Ecuador Pictures

Ecuador


I wanted to make a quick post of my pictures from Ecuador. I've annotated most with a description. I'm adding other team members pictures as they send them to me, so you'll see the chronology of the trip start over again after the annotations stop. Below is a slide show if you'd rather see them that way.

Required Watching

As some of my closest friends know, I supported Fred Thompson in the primary campaign. I supported him because I believed he was the only candidate who truly represented the voice of genuine conservatism. I felt so deeply that I even supported his campaign financially. I've never done that for any other politician. But Thompson didn't make it through the primary, and that's okay because I know my ultimate hope isn't in any earthly regime. That said, I still feel strongly in who I vote for, even if I am frustrated in doing so.

I continue to get emails from Thompson's PAC, but don't have much time to read and watch videos. This evening, however, my brother-in-law sent me one of the videos and said I needed to watch it. So I did. And once again, I heard the voice of genuine conservatism, communicating what conservatives really believe. This message has been so distorted by our media that I think many who know conservativism's wisdom is worthwhile, have forgotten how to communicate it to their friends and family. So I'm posting this video for the 2 or 3 viewers that still happen by this site, in case they might have someone in their life who needs to hear this message. It's worth the 12 minutes. The only bad thing about it is it broke my heart that Thompson isn't on the ballot.

There are other emails I have received from friends and family that communicate concern over Obama, including one that I received multiple times from an African-American pastor. Much of his content was on target, but his hatred and language frustrated me to the point of closing out the video. There is a way to communicate the concerns we have about socialist-tendencies, lack of character, hypocrisy, etc...without being hateful and emotion-driven.

Okay, here's Fred's video:
