Between Newt, Romney and Ron Paul, Newt is the only one that can't be counted on to reinstated DADT and to stand up to the onslaught of homosexual activism that endangers a whole host of freedoms.

None of the three you mention should be counted on for anything.
Newt is correct though, I see nothing ‘controversial’ about the statement.
Behavior is a choice.

Did you not read the article?
... he continued, before reiterating his support for reinstating the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy.

Your response does not make much sense gramatically. Also, Newt seemed to ba saying in the article you link that he is not pro-gay.

“I think people have a significant range of choice within a genetic pattern,” he said. “I believe it’s a combination of genetics and environment. I think that both are involved. I think people have many ranges of choices.”
Newt is riding the fence on this one.

What does sexual persuasion have to do with government, many heterosexual and homosexual folks work for the government. Find a good American who loves this country; who understands and believes in the Constitution and following and enforcing our laws, freedom and personal responsibility who has gravitas and spine...think seriously about voting for such an American....we sure don’t have one now!

Homosexuality is defined by one’s behavior. It’s not an inherited characteristic like skin, hair or eye color.
To: Kazan
Obviously, I meant to say Newt is the only one that CAN be counted on to reinstated DADT and oppose the homosexual agenda.

As a person who is a friend of a married couple with a former gay and lesbian as a member, Newt is right.
Sexuality and the many variations of its applicable fetishes are learned behavior.

Yeah I'd say so.
Gingrich told the Des Moines Register editorial board that he does not "believe in genetic determinism, and I don't think there is any great evidence of genetic determinism."
He said that certain people may choose to be gay if they have certain genetic traits and are raised in a certain environment.

No he isn’t the only one. Santorum and Bachmann could also be counted on.

Newt’s a funny-looking guy, but he’s a wise man, with knowledge to back his wisdom.

I knew you had to mean CAN. Just looking at the other two choices, I figured you would be back to correct.

Why is it not a 'choice'
for some. And why wouldn't it be; moreso today; given the 'choices' kids are taught/exposed to from 5th/6th grade and up? He is not saying it is a 'choice' for all Gays. . .'just some' whereby they act out/experiment with 'Gay behavior' - and later, take it - or leave it.
Not like he does not have a 'committed sister' and is immune to other genetic scenarios here.
