Wait, didn’t Gingrich “become” Catholic to appease his wife. Hasn’t he always been open that his real religion is Tofflerism?
So you are privy to his catechisis and to his Confession? I thought not.
Newtie infamously posed on a divan with Nutsy Pelousy to co-endorse cap and trade and gorebal warming!
He is a two faced nincompoop and Romney is no better
The bottom line is that both of these supposed candidates are utterly worthless to a nation that is in dire straits and in desperate need of a true leader!
His new-found religion is yet another example of his poor character.
It’s unfortunately that I felt compelled to make the comment, but it is, nevertheless, true.
*(Stolen from one of FDR's many vice-presidents.)
Have a Merry Christmas.
Creighton Abrams apparently made the same error, going from a Methodist to RC. Ditto, Justices Bork & Thomas along with Tony Blair.
Candidly I don’t know whether Gingrich is sincere or not. I do however amazingly arrogant you you to presume you can see into the heart of a person you probably don’t know.
When did God grant you these special powers?
Why not put your special gifts to use telling us who the child molesters are?
As a happy & thankful convert to the Catholic Church I feel sad for you for yours assertion. Peace be with you.
Newt just couldn't make the numbers work for that, better fit though it may well have been.
Well, looking at his string of sinful betrayals both public and private over the past twenty years, it's evident that he wasn't really all that into being Baptist. He rode the coattails of Baptists and southern evangelicals to political power and then immediately began going his own way afterward.
The same will happen now. Intelligent though he obviously may be, he still would appear to have the attention span of a gnat, the sexual continence of a baboon and the conscience of a snake oil salesman.
He'll embarass Catholics before the primary season is done. Actually, he already has, by going against church teaching regarding life beginning at conception. He knows better, you see, having a very elaborate explanation for everything, and that never fails to set the Beltway putative conservative set aswoon.
Why are you calling Novus Ordo Catholics phony?
We are baptized, just as you were. We are just as much Catholic as you are.
Have you read Newt’s documentary on Pope John Paul II? He is very much a historian, as I understand it — knows the facts.

**But a born-again Baptist couldn’t...**
Of course they could, all they would need to do is study and find the truth.
The truth is not based on the emotions of one moment at an altar call.
The truth is based in years and years of history.
**Newt is an arrogant loose cannon is well established.**
An arrogant loose cannon does not write documentaries about Pope John Paul II.
Perhaps some more study of Newt’s conversion might help you with the truth here?
**His new-found religion is yet another example of his poor character.**
In what way?
Would you rather have a Romney, the flip-flopper, character for President?
I don’t want either one of these jokers!
So are you in Obama’s pocket?
