Here’s the latest news: Gasoline in Los Angeles, California is now $5.00/gallon.
I hope they are happy with the Hopey-Changey (p)resident they elected in 2008. Didn’t he promised them that prices are gonna “skyrocket”? There they are!
According to an official scoring by Fiscal Associates lead economist Gary Robbins released earlier this week, Newt’s Jobs and Economy Recovery Plan would create 6.6 million new jobs in two years and balance the budget within his first term. The Wall Street Journal’s Stephen Moore wrote about this news in his column, saying Newt “arguably has the boldest tax plan.”

“Mr. Gingrich has announced he will use dynamic, not static, scoring to demonstrate his plan’s potential to jumpstart growth. The former House speaker arguably has the boldest tax plan, which includes a 15% optional flat tax. He would also allow young workers to take a share of their payroll tax dollars and divert the funds into a personal IRA.
Mr. Gingrich showed that using this dynamic scoring — which takes into account the extra economic steroid effect of the plan — there would be six million new jobs in two years.
The new economic numbers, from former Reagan economists Peter Ferrara and Gary Robbins, also show that the Gingrich policies would balance the budget within the first term of his presidency.”
What is Newt doing in WA, with primaries in MI and AZ, next week?
Money for Campaign and delegates.
He has left the two poodles fighting among themselves out there.
Newt is focused on Super Thursday and the big states with a high number of delegates. This is called campaign strategy.
“In these challenging economic times, we need a bold leader like Newt Gingrich who has the right knowledge and experience to get the American people back to work. Newt’s proven track record of balancing the budget and paying down the national debt is exactly the type of leadership we need in the White House. Newt is the only candidate in the race who has achieved the scale of change we need, and I’m proud to support his candidacy for president.”
I really enjoyed his speech.
Thank you for sharing. I missed this earlier.
Thank you Marguerite!
I enjoyed the video. If you want to pay 2.50 a gallon for gas join Newt Gingrich. If you want to pay 10.00 a gallon of gas join Obam!
I like Gingrich’s remark about the Volt and the guy that put a gun rack in the trunk. “Ok, but where are you going to put the deer?” LOL
What I especially appreciate in all Newt’s speeches, besides his competence, powerful analysis of the real problems, and his solutions to solve them:
1) His data is always factually correct.
2) He makes his points without insulting the adversaries.
3) His huge talent of story-teller, which literally scotches the audience to his voice.
4) His great sense of humor.
You’re most welcome.
I’ve found this site electad.com, which updates periodically all the candidates’ videos of interviews, speeches, debates, so I’m checking it out every day :)
So blue it’s nearly black.
I can’t stand this place, but my wife grew up here, and her parents are still here, so I’m here.
Had I a choice in which my wife would be happy, and elsewhere, I’d go.
She’s happy. I’m happy. Even though this city blows.
Thanks for that link - got it saved. that’s valuable!
I hunted all over for the speech in Washington from last night - couldn’t find it anywhere.
This link is a one-stop-shop for videos.
I tried to liesten to the other two candidates’s speeches in Mich. - Alsmot fell asleep in both. A lot of rhetoric but no specifics “I’ll fix this, I’ll fix that” - but no how’s.
“Mr. Gingrich has announced he will use dynamic, not static, scoring to demonstrate his plan’s potential to jumpstart growth. The former House speaker arguably has the boldest tax plan, which includes a 15% optional flat tax. He would also allow young workers to take a share of their payroll tax dollars and divert the funds into a personal IRA.”
“Gingrich announced that, if elected, he would abolish the “death tax.” Meaning, he would offer legislation repealing the estate tax. The logic is that heavily taxing estates, eviscerates family wealth and forces more people into the public welfare system.
Take, for example, a family that has fifty-thousand dollars in savings and owns a small electrical business valued at 1.7 million dollars. If the business is owned in the father’s name, upon his death, the family will owe three-hundred and fifty thousand dollars in estate taxes. Only having fifty-thousand dollars in savings, the family will be forced to liquidate their business.
This removes their income and forces both the family and the employees into unemployment. The government is no longer receiving tax revenue from their business and paying more people unemployment checks. In short, everyone loses.”
“I tried to liesten to the other two candidates’s speeches in Mich. - Alsmot fell asleep in both. A lot of rhetoric but no specifics “I’ll fix this, I’ll fix that” - but no how’s.”
The difference being that Newt has been there, done all that, while the other candidates’ are hollow promises, inflated on the campaign trail as they go along ...
