GOV. ROMNEY WINS RELIGIOUS LIBERTY AWARD

From NRO: "Governor Mitt and Mrs. Ann Romney received the Canterbury Medal from the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty. Ann Corkery, who directs philanthropy at Security National Servicing Corporation, introduced the Romneys, reflecting on their contributions to religious liberty in America."

She began:

Many other friends are here, and I especially want to recognize the movie producer Steve McEveety. Steve runs what you might call the Hollywood office of the Becket Fund. He is the producer of many films including the Oscar-winning film Braveheart. Another movie title to Steve’s credit caused a slightly awkward moment this evening, when he had to correct our guest of honor on a point of fact. It turns out that on the campaign trail, Mitt had long insisted he was the inspiration for What Women Want.

Congratulations, Governor and Mrs. Romney!
