Wrong. I have followed Newt very closely over the years. I have studied is ego. If he wins, he will be rabid for "government" solutions to AGW.
Newt is lying when he states he has changed his position on AGW. He is just pandering for votes. He is like most D.C. Pols.
Look up his recent interview on Levin's show. It's painful to listen how he "wants" to still believe in the "crisis" of climate change. No hint from Newt of the absolute fraud of the AGW cabal.
I am certain, if elected, he will push carbon reduction and other AGW measures.
Newt is a technocrat at heart and technocrats love solving non-existent problems with grandiose big government solutions. It feeds their enormous egos.
With that said, Newt would be immeasurably better than Mitt. Newt would easily get my vote, but I will expect he will disappoint us on many fronts. Still, he would be more conservative than the two Bushes by far.
Newt could be a great President if he truly embraced slashing government and reducing it in absolute terms. I don't think it's in his DNA to take the truly bold steps.
you opine “Newt is lying when he states he has changed his position on AGW. He is just pandering for votes. He is like most D.C. Pols.
Look up his recent interview on Levin’s show. It’s painful to listen how he “wants” to still believe in the “crisis” of climate change. No hint from Newt of the absolute fraud of the AGW cabal.
I am certain, if elected, he will push carbon reduction and other AGW measures. “

Guess you haven’t followed closely enough?
Here is Newt testifying IN 2009 - re glowBull warming at the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
“Newt Rips Gore’s ‘Facts’ To Pieces “

Name ONE other person, let alone another candidate, that has been so strong denouncing Gore and gang? (I won’t wait. I like breathing.)
Re Your “opine”: Opinions, BTW, are just that. there’s often a wide chasm between opinion and fact.
It’s interesting to keep track of Newt bashers that continuously post nonfactual ‘facts’ against Bush - even after being give the truth. Now that’s dedication...but disgusting.
