You and others really should stop casting stones at anyone who doesn’t adhere to 100% of the conservative position 100% of the time and attempting to throw them out of the conservative movement. Coalitions are built, not torn down,and unless you want to be lost in a tiny little group of people who think exactly like you and have absolutely no political clout whatsoever, you might get used to the idea that sometimes you’ll have disagreements with people who are on the same team as you.
And LIKE IT OR NOT, Newt is one of the more articulate & intelligent architects of the movement (that’s alive right now). This would be the perfect position for him.
He's a carnival barker.
He's played, overplayed, in fact.
You, Leo Farnsworth, can “bullshite” all you want. It does not change the reality that there are only 2 coalitions in US: Republican coalition and Democrats. Newt does not offer to adapt any Democrats socialist ideas. Even his Global Warming bs (and I do think he is wrong there) is based on the “let market work it out” triangulation. But he is the best in expressing conservative ideas. What exactly you disagree with in his American Solutions project? I assume you did go through it, did you?
I_like_good_things_too, allow me to sign under all you said: “You and others really should stop casting stones at anyone who doesn’t adhere to 100% of the conservative position 100% of the time and attempting to throw them out of the conservative movement.

Bravo! The voice of reason. Thank you.
