Was he not just brilliant this morning! This is one of the reasons, when Newt was Speaker, that the media absolutely detested him and did all they could to destroy him...he just slaughters them merely by being accurate.
Since January 2005, the Iraqi security forces, military and police, have lost three times the KIAs we have, i.e., to date, 5514 killed. In April 2007 they lost 300 personnel alone. The Dems just demean their sacrifice because it serves their agenda of defeat.
Newt did very well. Too bad he sometimes seems to disagree with himself. He is such a brilliant thinker/speaker, why does he ever fall for the toons?
