Not that I don't believe you, because I DO, but for those that need proof do you have a link? Sometimes a little refresher course is needed.
We need NEWT the VISIONARY. Santorum doesn't want to be that it seems, he said so, didn't he?
I am sick of trying of making other countries behave, and still support them. We can no longer be the WELFARE Nation to domestic do nothings as well as the World do nothings and haters. Sick of it.
The other nations can either shape up or starve, their choice, same with domestic welfare misfits.

"This whole idea of personal autonomy, well I dont think most conservatives hold that point of view. Some do. They have this idea that people should be left alone, be able to do whatever they want to do, government should keep our taxes down and keep our regulations low, that we shouldnt get involved in the bedroom, we (the government) shouldnt get involved in cultural issues. You know, people should do whatever they want. Well, that is not how traditional conservatives view the world and I think most conservatives understand that individuals cant go it alone. That there is no such society that I am aware of, where weve had radical individualism and that it succeeds as a culture." Rick Santorum

We have a whole culture that is focused on immediate gratification and the pursuit of happiness it is harming America.

HUH, guess I was wrong about AMERICANS who struggled in the beginning, damn I just hate when I'm wrong/s. I think our forefathers were pretty damn radical.
AS for me and mine, WE CAN DO JUST FINE ON OUR OWN, thank you very much little Ricky. We don't need nothing from the government, except Protection from threats domestic and foreign. That's it.
No Mr. Rick, you are so wrong, you are no longer eligible to call yourself conservative.
I watched the video last night and was really inspired with what he said.
For the most part, he seems to agree with what my conservative3 friends think, but I thought he did an excellent job of stating his plan with a simple tone of voice.
Because Newt is so smart, he can sound very condescending when he speaks. I don’t think he intends to do that, but really smart conservatives that speak so eloquently (remember Reagan?) have to be careful of their tones.
It stinks that democrats campaign merely on feelings, while conservatives campaign or promote their ideas with substance.
Because so many undecided voters tend to operate on the “feelings” message, a conservative has to consider them when they present useful information within the conversation.
I really really want to see Newt as the next POTUS.
