Newt Gingrich was the major attraction at an Iowa social conservative confab Monday night, telling a packed house that President Barack Obama is beholden to the "secular, socialist left" and that a change must come.
Gingrich, the former House Speaker who told the audience at the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition forum here that he's "exploring" a run, insisted the political climate across America is "fundamental to the nation's future."
He slammed the president for his use of executive orders, accused him of being soft in his support of Israel, and hit other tea-party favored themes.

Newt has got to do better than that. He has got to expose all the dirty deeds from Zero’s birth through today.
Actually if Newt got up to speed on the eligibility issue and worked it, it could be a game changer for him. Doubt he’d do it though.
Newt agreed with John (I served in Viet Nam) Kerry and Nancy Pelosi on Global Warming. If he gets the nomination we will have four more years of Barry.
Are you kidding me don’t you know who Newt is?
You must be spending to much time watching Hannity.
Take a look on his voting record, facts are stubborn things.
I hope he does anyway, once he realizes he has more to gain than lose, or at least when it looks like he has nothing to lose by trying.
What a wimp, what's next, a "listening tour"?
He agreed with Karl Marx in voting for the dept of education and the for feds buying up millions of acres of land in Alaska and other states.
He voted for the Mexican bailout of 53 billion and voted for granting China MFN status which allowed them to buy up our debt.
Newt is going to EASILY run away with this. It is startling how many of you don’t see this coming. In hindsight, you’ll see that because of his VAST lead in knowledge, experience, history, solutions, and communication skills over his rivals.... that he should have been the frontrunner all along.
Newt is unelectable. He has baggage, lots of baggage.
Newt can’t win. He has too much personal baggage. He’s also too old.
You are a very funny poster!!!
Yeah, that’s a hoot, isn’t it? Newt? Oh please! The man pandering to Iowa farmers over ethanol? The man who supported the uber-liberal DeeDee Scozzafazo, or whatever her name was? The man who abandoned his ill wife for his mistress? That Newt?
Well, you can have him.
Newt will have more credibility if he chooses not to run for president. Right now anything he says will be viewed as potentially a political calculation. Has Newt really changed, or is he just trying to appeal to primary voters? If he’s not running then it’s for real.
I am not sure that Newt is the best answer, but any rebuttal that is given by the president of the Birch society must be taken with a major grain of salt.
As far as it goes. Gingrich would be a damn sight better than Obama, ANY of the Republican candidates would be. Obviously we want the most EFFECTIVE Conservative that we can get.
I hope he just forgot the sarc tag. I’d like to think our fellow FReepers are not so damn stupid as to follow this idiot RINO Newt....but then again, maybe he is just a young’n and does not know any better.
I am not sure that Newt is the best answer, but any rebuttal that is given by the president of the Birch society must be taken with a major grain of salt.
Rather than dwell on WHO made the rebuttal - can you provide us with the proof about what he said about the Gingrich votes to be false?
Give us YOUR facts about Gingrich's voting record to prove the video is all lies!
Conservatives...say it with me...BOOT NEWT!!!
