It's really difficult to have a dialogue with someone who makes a lot of baseless assertions, with little or no evidence, and then asks for a response about an unsubstantiated assertion. Where is your proof, sir?

You maintain that the former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich, architect of the conservative "Contract With America," if elected will "prohibit free speech, allow open surveillance of everyone in America..." The probability that a future President Gingrich would be a threat to the civil liberties of American citizens, runs as close to zero as mathematics allows. It is preposterous on its face, and something I would expect to hear from a Osama Hussein Obama supporter (BTW who are you supporting?) rather than coming from a purported man of the right.

If you're going to continuue engaging in a lack of real argumentation, or spew a lot of empty assertions, don't waste my time, or your time, for that matter, with a comment.

From Newt's own site:

"we will adopt rules of engagement that use every technology we can find to break up their capacity to use the internet, to break up their capacity to use free speech" [that doesn't sound like someone who is in favor of free speech]

"Congress Should Pay for Immigrants' Healthcare" [he wants the federal gov't to pay for it instead of the states, which is fine but he wants to address the overall problem with a guest worker program]

"We will never be able to control the border until we go to a migrant worker program that recognizes the reality that there are several million Mexicans willing to work in the U.S. and there are several hundred thousand Americans willing to hire them. . . " [he wants to secure the border after the guest worker program is in place]

This stuff is on his site and has been discussed on FR.

"The probability that a future President Gingrich would be a threat to the civil liberties of American citizens, runs as close to zero as mathematics allows."

Your point is ridiculous, as evidenced by Newt's own words. You are the one who is spouting baseless assertions, as evidenced by the above.

Have a nice day.
