We need to remember why Gingrich was knocked out of the Speaker’s chair in the late 1990s to begin with. Conservative House members got fed up with him constantly caving to Clinton and allowing Clinton to hike federal spending as a percentage of GNP to what was then a post World War II high. Gingrich wasn’t knocked off for being too conservative, but for being too conciliatory.

Look, he is not PERFECT but it is THE MEDIA telling us we have ‘backlash’ against him- so we all better jump on the Romney wagon.

I DONT SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH WHAT HE SAID

You can’t just throw millions of people out of the country. The biggest problem with imigration is how do you suddenly enforce a law that has been ignored (and even promited by democraps) for 40 years.

Do you tell people “You f*cked up - you trusted Democraps”, and let the GOP throw them all out of the country?

Some here have never lived in Mexico since childhod- they wont have a place to go to if we DID send them out.

I say LOCK THE BORDERS and Wean people off the system- NO NEW WELFARE for illegals- you comehere and have a baby, then you go home on the next plane. That would immediately stop the inflow.

JAIL TIME for people who hire illegals- and require anyone ‘undocumented’ to get documented pretty dam quick

It is a 40 year problem it HAS TO BE handled “humanely” to fix it

Newt is clueless on enforcing laws already on the books. Amnesty was tried and failed to discourage illegals. They’re not going to “go to the back of the line” when there is zero encouragement to do so. Newt’s plan is nothing more than the same closet amnesty Bush proposed....empty words with ZERO enforcement. A couple of raids, a trip to the border for a quick photo op, and it’s back to BUSINESS AS USUAL.

I’m no fan of Amnesty, definitely don’t want to give citizenship and favor mandatory e-verify...but would you vote for this man if you heard this answer....?

Driving out to take a Thanksgiving dinner to my sick brother yesterday I observed two interesting illistrations about 2 o'clock.

One was a Muslim immigrant and friends replacing the roof on his house oblivious to the national holiday. The other was a group of about 15 illegals and their families celebrating with a large dinner on their patio complete with a kids table.

I'm not sure what it means but I'd rather have family oriented Christian Catholics, than legal Muslim immigrants trying to force change to our country and beliefs. Looking at our present fertility rates and what it means to any free nation is a bit unsettling. We'll need immigrants for the future. Newt is proposing a way to make the illegals legal without citizenship or voting rights.

Give it some thought.

” - - - that he would allow millions of illegal immigrants who have settled in the United States to become legal residents.”

How are you going to pay for it NEWT? The estimate is 2.6 Trillion Dollars in entitlements alone.

Stop promising to burn our meney! WE are TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY!

The issue is an emotional one for Americans. Newt has difficulty understanding human emotion. Masters don't care how their slaves “feel” and fascists are always trying to defy human nature or at least pretend that they can control it..self proclaimed G-ds never learn. Being territorial will not be “learned” ,”forced” or “progressed” out of humans, it's a natural instinct...like mating.

He is backing off because his lesson in “logic” to the people is not working. The global pols are pushing a lawless human cattle mixing concept that is inhuman and unatural.

I regret that our “leaders” are fascist morons that have allowed an illegal soft invasion of this country.

How about showing some humanity to us,we the people of the United States of America?

Do we not deserve humane treatment? Or are we just here to pay for others?
