Newt Gingrich on Libya/Egypt attacks: We need to be standing up for and defending freedom (CNN)
The Right Scoop ^ | 9/12/2012 | The Right Scoop

Posted on 09/12/2012 9:32:05 PM PDT by JediJones

Newt Gingrich says that these attacks on our embassies and consulates aren’t just coincidental, but rather there are “substantial factions” who look for opportunities to attack America:

“There’s a substantial faction, particularly in Benghazi, which was sending people to Iraq to kill Americans. There’s a substantial faction in Egypt which wants to defeat the United States and destroy Israel. That faction looks for opportunities to do things to hurt the United States and yesterday was the example of an attack that’s part of a very long war that we’re going to be at for a very long time.”

Exactly. This isn’t about a movie about Muhammad. This is about people who hate America who will use anything as a foil to do us harm.

Gingrich also defends Romney’s statement yesterday, which is clearly coming under false attacks by the Obama campaign, and says that we must be standing up for and defending freedom against these attacks.

Sorry, Bolton is a diplomat and for homosexuals in the military, but he’s likely Romney’s choice, and Rudy would be a good AG, but I’d much prefer Newt. That entire department needs a fumigation and no more nonsense from activist judges.

That's what i tell my son....Since he's become a daddy he actually believes it some time.

BTW dad has been selected to go to DC with HonorFlight.org
to see the WWII Memorial. I'm going to accompany him. He is SO excited.

God I love Newt. Brilliant man and he knows his stuff. It would be a sin for Romney not to use him in a cabinet position and what a fabulous Sec of State he would make

Yep. Newt would be a great addition to the cabinet. Whether State or elsewhere, but press secretary would be too trivial a position for that mind. He could do great, but his talents could best be served elsewhere.

You’re so right, and if only!

The US needs educating and then the world. He’s capable of both.

The first thing he better use Newt for is a debate coach.

I'd like to see Newt, Cain, Palin Boltin analyze, dissect, stir up and regurgitate a couple of the Cabinet Departments.

Good, but I’d say “Newt, for whatever Newt wants”, he is still the brightest bulb in the box, the cream of the crop, beyond a shadow of a doubt, way out in front of everybody else.

The 40+ Marxists/Maoists in the current cabinet need flushing. Newt, Cain, Palin,Bolton.....put them all to work.

Absolutely! I want to see Senator DeMint as Majority Leader and Mike Lee or Rand Paul second in command. No more damn squishes.
