I'll agree that Newt is indeed a master debater---he can certainly debate both sides of an issue with equal intensity and seeming sincerity. However, he's been practicing and perfecting the manipulation of language for over twenty years now, and he even issued a pamphlet in 1996 explaining how to do it.

Language: A Key Mechanism of Control

Needless to say, he's fooling a lot of Conservatives now using the very same techniques he used to employ against the Rats. People need to look at his RECORD and not simply rely on his recent "debate" performances to vet him.

Correct. To be a good debater you must be able to defend either side of any issue. I think Newt lost (maybe never had it) his moral compass. He’s in love with history but he hasn’t learned from it.
