CPAC 2012: Newt Gingrich hits the reset button.

No one can say they don’t know what Newt Gingrich will do after his inauguration. He’s got big plans…

He pledged to have a full list of his proposed executive orders and presidential findings published online by October, so that every voter will know exactly what they’re getting. He wants every Republican candidate to campaign with him on a pledge to hit the next Congress in a monster jam session that repeals the job-killing centralized corruption of ObamaCare, Dodd-Frank, and Sarbanes-Oxley by the time he’s sworn in…

… and that’s just an appetizer.

Within two hours of plopping his Dilbert calendar and family photographs on the Resolute Desk, he’ll have signed an executive order to cashier every one of the Obama czars. Then he’ll sign one to approve the oil pipeline from Canada to Houston. By lunch, he’ll have moved the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem. Next up would be re-instituting Ronald Reagan’s Mexico City policy, to forbid spending money to subsidize abortion overseas…

By the time ex-President Obama “lands in Chicago,” he aims to have repealed “40 percent of Obama’s government.”

This is a briefer, easier-to-read copy, should anyone want to post it elsewhere, as the full article is kind of difficult to get through for people who have attention deficits, or other reading problems - like they don't like to...

CPAC 2012: Newt Gingrich hits the reset button

Day One will be epic, and then he’ll get really busy.

by John Hayward

No one can say they don’t know what Newt Gingrich will do after his inauguration.  He’s got big plans… 

He pledged to have a full list of his proposed executive orders and presidential findings published online by October, so that every voter will know exactly what they’re getting.  He wants every Republican candidate to campaign with him on a pledge to hit the next Congress in a monster jam session that repeals the job-killing centralized corruption of ObamaCare, Dodd-Frank, and Sarbanes-Oxley by the time he’s sworn in…

 … and that’s just an appetizer

Within two hours of plopping his Dilbert calendar and family photographs on the Resolute Desk, he’ll have signed an executive order to cashier every one of the Obama czars.  Then he’ll sign one to approve the oil pipeline from Canada to Houston.  By lunch, he’ll have moved the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.  Next up would be re-instituting Ronald Reagan’s Mexico City policy, to forbid spending money to subsidize abortion overseas…  

By the time ex-President Obama “lands in Chicago,” he aims to have repealed “40 percent of Obama’s government.”

Then the munchkins of the Establishment would get to clutch their “fairness” and “revenue-neutral” teddy bears, suck their thumbs, and watch as President Gingrich proceeded to “create the most dynamic economy on the plane…

Newt’s economic plans include:

• Rebuilding our manufacturing base” by eliminating the capital gains tax for all investment
• Allowing 100 percent expensing of all new capital equipment
• Requiring mandatory business-led training those who receive unemployment benefits
• Eliminating the job-killing Environmental Protection Agency
• Creating an Environmental Solutions Agency full of common-sense professionals instead of zero-growth anti-business radicals
• Creating a 21^st-century Food and Drug Administration to unleash medical research
• Slashing the corporate tax rate to 12.5 percent
• Actually collecting some taxes from General Electric
• Abolishing the immoral death tax
• Cutting everyone’s taxes with the flat tax plan Steve Forbes brought back from Hong Kong
• Balancing the federal budget by bringing the level of spending down to meet the level of revenue
• Stopping the taxing of the American people to pay off Barack Obama’s credit card
• Using American energy to reduce fuel prices
• Increasing government revenue through economic growth
• Saving $500 billion a year by replacing the 130-year-old incompetent and inefficient civil service system with a modern system
• Abolishing the totally failed Department of Energy
• Subcontracting fraud-riddled Medicaid and Medicare administration to professional data administrators from credit card companies
• Taking the 10^th Amendment seriously
• Strengthening Social Security
• Auditing the Federal Reserve
• Re-balancing the federal judiciary
• Bouncing Fed chief Ben Bernanke out of Washington. 

Oh, and he won’t be bowing to any Saudi kings.

But that’s not all!  Be sure to drop by www.newt.org, where you can bathe your mind in “an immense amount of material.”

According to Gingrich, we face now an hour similar to 1980, 1984, and 1994, when a bold conservatism presented with vigor can rally independent and moderate voters, who might otherwise be cowed by the Left’s moralistic commands to continue America’s downward spiral. 

Where Rick Santorum offered a focused table of contents for his proposed Administration, and Mitt Romney spent half of his speech talking about his biography, Gingrich is already working on the footnotes and appendix. 

But is his exhaustive list of proposals really too much for one Administration?  Barack Obama hasn’t been shy about swinging executive power like a wrecking ball.  Why can’t it be used constructively?

For Newt Gingrich, the historic election ahead will be a choice between those who cleave to the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Federalist Papers, versus Barack Obama and the Saul Alinsky radicals.  He calls for hitting the “reset button” and rebuilding America, instead of managing its decay.  None of the Establishments talk like that.

From comments aka garden of wisdom:

I dream of a President that has plans such as this AND is willing to do it!  I just hope there are enough of us out here ready, willing and able to send Newt to Washington to do it!

*

Notice the Drudgereport, Foxnation, and others. Not a word on Gingrich today either, instead we have articles on Ann Coulter to fill the void. Reading to much into things? Maybe. We shall see eh?

*

To watch Newt operate in spite of all that is a wonder to behold! If the full weight of a hostile mainstream media can't stop him, there is no terrorist in the world that can even intimidate him! LOL

*

I'm going to go out on a limb and say something I rarely do regarding a politician: I believe Newt.  He may fail to achieve all his stated objectives, but I do believe he will try his best to achieve them, and they're necessary, worthwhile goals.

I suspect he's tried to straddle the gulf, keeping one foot in the "the establishment" and another outside it -- in the past.  But now that "they" are trying to amputate both his legs, I think he's jumped over to our side ...  hopefully, for good (intended as a double-meaning).

I just wish, and hope, that more of "us" realize it.

*

This is what it is going to take to right this ship from its trip into socialist hell.  There is no comparison between what this brilliant man offers and the other candidates.

Newt is substance.  The others are talking points.

We all need to help.  Spread the word.  Help financially.  Whatever you can do to help him spread his message to every American.  The establishment surely isn't going to help, so we MUST.

The power is with the people!

Looking for a job? Newt 2012!  Want a balanced budget and less government interference?  Newt 2012!  Hoping to grow your business and hire more people?  Newt 2012!

Be Bold Vote Newt. *

Who gives a rip about Newt's so-called negatives. I'll venture to say that he has no more than most American presidents. What he does have is intelligence, ideas and experience in changing the government.  So enough of the tired old too many negatives B.S.. It's far beyond stale. Grow up and vote NEWT! * Bold is a fundamental quality of America. There is a long list of people that were quite bold & proposed brave ideas that lead to the birth of this nation. Men willing to fight & die if needed for their ideas. Ideas such as liberty, freedom - I don't think anyone bitched about things just not being 'fair'. *

[presently no screen name]

I’d say the biggest negative is lying to voters. Therefore, both Mitt and Rick have the biggest negatives.

By the time ex-President Obama “lands in Chicago,” he aims to have repealed “40 percent of Obama’s government.”

Excellent!!!

[skinkinthegrass]

[onyx]

"We'll keep our God, our guns, our Constitution!"
GO NEWT!!!

[greeneyes]

Newt is definitely the heavy weight in this contest. I notice the others are picking up some of his ideas and expressions. They just don’t have the depth that Newt does.

[b9]

Newt is substance. The others are talking points.

Onward and Upward!

[Christie at the beach]

That maybe our post of the day (for Newt). Great job!

[onyx]

It’s pitiful and pathetic for them to do that, but they do not have the bold and radical ideas on their own and Newt Gingrich can’t nail them for it without looking like a whiner.

His ideas and solutions are all written out and posted at Newt.org but the vast majority of folks won’t take the time to go there to read it for themselves.

[onyx]

Newt is substance. The others are talking points.

YOU. ARE. BRILLIANT!

BTTT

[onyx]

Please put that in your tagline!

It’s not my line - it’s tbfs!

THANK YOU, TRUE BELIEVER FOREVER!

[true believer forever]

It’s not my line, it was in the “Comments Section” under the article, I don’t know whose it was, so I bequeath it to b9, since he spotted it and posted it for all to see... THANK YOU... I read that several times and it never popped out to me, but you caught it...

[b9]

Thanks for posting it!

I remember Newt’s success in the early ‘90s, and I also remember the likes of NPR mocking him at every turn.

Newt is a genius, he’s not infallible, but Newt is not only wise, he’s experienced, mature, and at ease. There’s no doubt in my mind that Mr McGringrich is the man the for the job. Now if only he could convince Sarah to accompany him to the White House.

[true believer forever]

You know, everytime sarah is on fox, I listen hard, because they always ask her about an endorsement. And besides Todd, and endorsing Newt for SC and FL, she won’t go any further. But I have also heard her, even today at CPac and variously, describe the candidate the country needs, mature, battle-tested, experienced, aggressive, unafraid... with a history of getting things done despite great obstacles... bits and bits I have kept tabs on... so that is pretty positive...

And she also said, most importantly, I think: she has to be very careful who she endorses, or when, because she is controversial and doesn’t want to cause them more harm and good... and then she goes into her rap... this is good, people are getting sorted out... So I’m thinking newt, plus the fact she once called Santorum a neanderthal, or said she would let his wife call him one after he was catty to her (Sarah)...who knows, really. what a dream though.

In 1995 Washington Times has called Newt “the indispensable leader” and Time Magazine, in naming him Man of the Year for 1995, said, “Leaders make things possible. Exceptional leaders make them inevitable. Newt Gingrich belongs in the category of the exceptional."

In November 2011 - Thomas Purcell wrote: Newt is Needed

"What we really need now is a GREAT President, one that can consolidate government, clean up the issues of foreign policy and taxation, and one that has a firm grasp on the economy. Newt is the guy that also understands you don’t need to reinvent the wheel; simply replacing the flat tire with a new one is what is going to work best. Newt is the thinking man’s choice. He is the choice for restoring our nation to a Constitutional government and open up economic opportunities. This is Newt Gingrich. No matter what the polls say, this is how America should vote for prosperous tomorrow."
