Vice President Mike Pence said he agrees with Joe Biden that the country is in a"battle for the soul," but they thought the country was facing vastly different threats, the vice president said on Friday. He was among the featured speakers at the annual Leadership Forum for the National Rifle Association's lobbying arm, the Institute for Legislative Action , in Indianapolis.
"We are in a battle," Pence continued. "We are in a battle for the soul of America, but it's a battle between liberty and tyranny. As the president has said before, it's a battle between independence and government control. And ultimately, it's a battle between freedom and socialism." Pence claimed that"we live in a time when freedom is under assault" and that"the freedom to live, to work, and to worship God are all being threatened by the radical left every day."Addressing the crowd before keynote speaker President Donald Trump at the NRA convention, Pence focused on socialism, an attack that Republicans have been heavily invoking in recent months.
The speeches by Trump and Pence seemed to carry the atmosphere of a campaign rally, with both touting the accomplishments of the administration and attacking Democrats and their policies.
What freedom, when you take away women's right to abortion. What freedom, when you deny LGBT their right to live as they choose. What freedom, when you refuse to enact gun laws. What freedom, when you impose your beliefs on US citizens. I ask what freedom?
There is nothing inherently unfree about Socialism and there is nothing inherently free about Capitalism. Politics are Politics and Economics are Economics.
Freedom like subsidies for oil and gas companies freedom and being free from affordable health care freedom?
For a religious man Pence lies a lot
VP is a plain liar. Fruad and NOT a Christian
No, it’s between compassion and greed. The GOP is all about greed. Money is power.
Just have both! People call that 'Quebec'.
It's either freedom and democracy or a dictator.
Dense is sick! The battle will be between dictatorship or democracy!
Not really. More like the fight against the lunacy that has overtaken the Oval.
that's right, Biden is for freedom & puppet pence is for more trump dictatorship.
He needs to first find his soul.
What does the left stand for? Honestly, what? They will use anything to gain power and not care about the fallout or who they hurt so long as they get their power trip.

Biden is further from socialism than pence
Yeah, its between the types of leaders who identify problems, and the types of leaders who want power but hold the public in such contempt that rather than explain that they really want low taxes and few regulations, they claim they are saving us from Stalinists like AOC.
Who cares what Pence thinks?
No it’s between racism and sexism still rearing it’s ugly head.
The guy who wants to convert gays is worried about freedom?

Trump withdraws from UN Arms Trade TreatyPresident Donald Trump announced Friday that his administration won't ratify an Obama-era U.N. treaty that aimed to keep guns out of the hands of human rights abusers.
