Fresh off his vacation, MSNBC's Pat Buchanan came out swinging Tuesday on "Morning Joe," calling former House Speaker Newt Gingrich a "political opportunist" for his comments about the proposed mosque in New York City.
On Monday, Gingrich compared the building of a proposed mosque near Ground Zero to Nazis putting up "a sign next to the Holocaust Museum" or "the Japanese putting up a site next to Pearl Harbor."
Buchanan argued that Gingrich's controversial comments were meant to position him to the right of his potential GOP primary opponent, Sarah Palin, on the issue.

That would be Newt Samsonite Gingrich.
He’s a much better back bencher. He sometimes has very good ideas.

Political opportunism seems to be a prerequisite for a career in Washington. Neither Gingrich, nor Buchanan, is immune.

This is the strongest reason to support Newt that I have heard in years. Not sure that it is enough though.

Gingrich is that + he belongs to NWO Elites. Lets hope Sarah DECLINES her invitation to any of Bildeberg/CFR/PNAC/Tri-Lateral-Comission/UN etc.

No fan of Palin’s, but Buchanan is right
Newt supported Dede Schizzofava in NY, works with Nancy Pelosi to pass Global Warming....he is Liberal RINO..and further left of Palin
Still, Buchanan critics are funny....they are more liberal than he is (especially on Free Trade Globalism)....but whine about him being a Liberal.
As much as MSNBC is Nutjob News....Free Traders line up with Al Gore, George Soros, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter...and every other DNC Liberal on Free Trade Globalism. Another group of Nutjobs

That stuff isn't in her vocabulary and I don't mean that as a slam. Sarah is an American patriot.
