MUST-SEE VIDEO: Meet Scott Turner, the Former NFL Defensive Back Who Tackles Today’s Entitlement Mentality ( great to see intelligent young men take on the ignorance coming from the low IQ left)

AUSTIN – This week’s Texas Public Policy Foundation forum began on a slightly disappointing note: Legendary NFL player and coach Mike Ditka’s anticipated keynote address would not happen. ESPN duty had called.

The TPPF folks noted that state Rep. Scott Turner (R-TX-Rockwall and Collin Counties) had agreed to step in and deliver the keynote.



Confession time: I knew very little about Rep. Turner. Look him up and you’ll quickly learn that he spent 8 years as a defensive back in the NFL, playing for the Washington Redskins, the San Diego Chargers and the Denver Broncos. He’s also a motivational speaker and relative newcomer to the Texas legislature.

But enough preamble. Here is the keynote that Rep. Turner delivered Wednesday. I don’t think anyone was missing Coach Ditka. Texas Republicans have a rising conservative star on their hands.

I'm slowly discovering fellow Utahans, who voted (R) their entire lives, slavishly hated Obama and Obamacare as told, reviewing their beliefs as they GET Obamacare, and now have insurance for the first time in their lives, or more than "insurance in name only" for the first time in their lives.

They whisper to me, lest some fellow conservative hear them. They're OVERJOYED.
