I still think the reason that Sarah did not run was because of death threats on her and possibly her family. If that’s the case its hard to find fault with her, IMHO. We have been over that a zillion times anyway.

Sort of. He has said he was not referring directly to the Ryan plan which had been approved by the House as part of the budget. When the firestorm erupted, Newt went into his usual spin mode and said he would have voted for the plan, but he had something better.

Thanks for the graph, let’s hope Beohner sees it. The politicians will raise taxes for the General Fund to pay back Social Security IOU’s.

I bet it is beautiful in the winter..and the whole Christmas season!
Bavaria is heavily Catholic in history.

If you get a chance, buy some of the Christmas cookies called “Lebkuchen”, sepecially the Elsian Lebkuchen..Yuuuumy! Or the “Stollen”( Christmas fruitcake unlike ours, light and tasty).

And a sad bit of news: Vaclev Havel, first president of a free Czechoslovakia, has died.

May he RIP. He was not only principled, he was brave, being one of the few world leaders willing to publicly state that "global warming/climate change" was a fraud.

If the other Reps don’t do it, then you can be assured the Dems will if Newt becomes the nominee. They will have him spinning like a top I fear once he comes under their microscope.

Yes, at a certain point you wonder how much anyone is really going to read, and I’ll include my own postings when using a linked source copy/paste.

Haley may be paying Romney back for the support he gave her, including going to SC to campaign for her. Did Newt do that?

Paying back Romney for his support is not a good thing.

And yes that is where consulting is fine, but if he’s also went to his political contacts to influence them to support or not support some legislation or regulation, that’s, at minimum, what needs clarification of the who, and for what.

Newt's specific criticism of Ryan's plan was that it was "too big a jump". At least that's what I see from the transcript.

“We have to decide if we're keeping the old car or getting a new one”.

There's a third option: A makeover. We gonna pimp our ride!

We added a lot of fresh, conservative talent into the House in 2010. We need more. We need to do the same to the Senate. We are starting to push ‘em back, and we need, especially right now, to not give up, but push HARDER.

Learn about the Republican candidates running in your local district/state primaries, and vote for the MOST conservative.

When Nov of 2012 comes, vote GOP.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

We're getting there.

Oh, I know, we never get tired of beating those poor ole dead horses.

I had not heard the death threat thing. That would give one pause with her sweet children. And there are lunatics as we well know.

I’m not mad at her at all. I just don’t think about her any more.

True the old anal probe.

Our nominee regardless of who it is will get that 24/7.What I like about Newt is that he's playing scorched earth when they come after him. Every time they do he simply points out how zero is 10X worse than him! It's a great strategy and it will work! Obamas screw-ups are a huge minefield just wanting to blow up.

Does zero dare go to Newt's history when he basically has none. Except almost four years of one debacle after another all blamed on GW?
