Gingrich: "Rumsfeld listens to generals; he doesn't obey them."

great catch.  Where is it from? 

Have you heard his story about Hillarycare being based on the German health care system and why that won't work in America?  It involves the phrase "In most of America, a speed limit is a benchmark of opportunity."

The man has a way with a phrase.

Gingrich said it to Wallace in the Fox interview this morning. He was emphasizing that it is the U.S. framework of having civilian (Rumsfeld) over the military.

What a link/post, incredible!Here's a sample;

Newt Gingrich on Adam Smith:

What we are missing today is the ability to get people who are wiling to think broadly enough about basic issues and then draw conclusions from their thoughts,and then the willingness of politicians to take those idea and begin to apply them directly to the modern world.

Brilliance personified here. This is basically what we are crying out for on FR all the time! Where are the politicos who will use the best ideas of mankind instead of the politically expedient.
