"I noticed you didn't answer the question. I will ask again, one more time. Are you also against our detention of enemy combatants picked up on the battlefield, and detained in Guantanamo?"

I was in a hurry and overlooked it. No, I don't have a problem with that.

You're cracking me up. You just went over the standard talking points instead of answering my question I asked above:
So it makes sense to prohibit free speech, allow open surveillance of everyone in America, yet not bother closing our porous borders?

"So it makes sense to prohibit free speech, allow open surveillance of everyone in America, yet not bother closing our porous borders?" How is Newt's position on the issues prohibiting free speech? What would lead you to the conclusion, from Newts stated positions, that a President Gingrich (love the sound of that) would "allow open surveillance on everyone..?"

Now let's get back to what defines a candidate as a conservative. Newt has a 90% lifetime record from the American Conservative Union, one of America's oldest and largest conservative lobbying groups. Now you say it's mere talking points, but one might conclude, that comment to be an attempt to duck an unpleasant issue. Once again I have to ask, what kind of lifetime ACU score must a candidate have, in your estimation, to be considered a Conservative?
