Well, I for one have been waiting on the edge of my seat to see which way Newt would go on this climategate issue. I didn’t know what to think about it until I heard from Newt. After he and Nancy Peloser posed on the park bench together to rally us all to the global warming flag, I really needed his permission to take a stand against it.
Not.
Newt was a tough fighter for years who helped get rid of Jim Wright and Tom Foley. He peaked with the "Contract for America" but was laying the groundwork for it for years. He recruited good people to run for Congress. He directed the overall efforts to elect Republican Congressmen
The way he got run out of Congress was unfair---->>>

Perfect description for Hannity's boring show.
Newt is a hypocrite.
Newt just recently was lecturing the media about how Global Warming was real and we had to do something about it.
“Newt Gingrich “The Evidence is Sufficient” on Global Warming”

1) “We should move toward the most effective ways of reducing carbon loading in the atmosphere”.
2) “We have to have a Green Conservativism”
I would say she is already on board. There is nothing wrong with being cautious in exploiting our resurces but the bottom line is we don’t let Mann-made hysteria to put the brakes on full pressure. She has been there. You may be referring to her comments while towing the campaign line but she let that go some time ago.

Pretty schizy, Newt, following your love fest with Pelosi with all this belated “me too, me too” a week or so after the smoking guns had been marked as evidence and the Universities have suspended leading junk scientists.
Newt’s article is mostly about Newt. Well, I’m not much interested in Newt any more. I can’t remember the last time I was interested in Newt.
Buh bye
You roll around with pigs, you get muddy.
Get lost you soft-on-crime scumbag co-conspirator Gingrich.
When are the CRICKETS-CHIRPING REPUBLICANS going to express outrage?...call for hearings?...call for criminal investigations/RICO? We know where the internationalists, the UNaccountable bureaucrats, the SOCIALIST DEMOCRATS stand. The domestic enemies are 535 con-men of congress. The good statist/bad statist con-game is being exposed. We the people, are the PREMEDITATED targets of the deceivers, every one of us, our children and our grandchildren.
When, in the course of human events,...
How true. I miss Bob Dornan. I wish we had 100 B-1 Bobs in congress.
“Newt was a tough fighter for years who helped get rid of Jim Wright and Tom Foley. He peaked with the “Contract for America” but was laying the groundwork for it for years. He recruited good people to run for Congress. He directed the overall efforts to elect Republican Congressmen”
I was a Newt fan back then, and for good reason. I don’t know what caused him to change so thoroughly. Sad .
Dornan got the ACORN treatment.
Sorry, Newt, you made your couch with Nancy Pelosi for global warming.
That was unforgiveable.
Big deal, you called for a Congressional investigation.
So did I, on Monday, to my Congressman.
“I have to agree with you. OTOH, better late than never for Newt to wake up and smell the coffee.”
Newterd didn’t wake up and smell the coffee. He’s trying to have it both ways, just like most politicians.Must be thinking about making another run at some office.
I suspect that Newt and many others just went along with the AGW hoopla simply because they didn't give it much thought -- after all, everyone seemed to agree. I'm kind of hoping that this will make a lot of them take a hard look at it and (sort of like reformed drunks or ex-smokers) turn into real crusaders (if you'll excuse the expression -- LOL!) against it.
It has to be pretty hard to do a U-turn on something you've just accepted and they'll want to take at least a bit of time to adjust. Hopefully, then they'll be all fired up and righteously infuriated at having been played for suckers!
Others, of course, were in on the scam (or at least stood to benefit to the extent that truth didn't matter) and just wanted to play the rest of us for suckers. Hard to tell who's who yet!
Yeah, our conservatives can (or could be) paid off just as easy as the democrats on this one. All they would have to do is sit back and shut up. We’ll wait a minute, isn’t that what they are doing now? (;-)
Next thing ya know Newt willing be saying FDR wasn’t his hero after all
Used to be Newt was tough as nails. I think he developed Stockholm Syndrome. The constant pressure from liberals and living in liberal DC ....he had too much contact with his “captors” and moved gradually part way to their positions. What you have today is a washed out version of the old Newt
But he seems to make a living at being the new and improved Newt
