I always liked Rand Paul, but then I heard him bashing Newt as a Progressive on Fox and he said his father can get the independents. His father who believes we caused 9-11. Who believes Iran should have a nuke and many more extreme, kooky and dangerous things. If he can bash Newt, he needs to ask himself how he can support his father because I see a lot more to fear in a Ron Paul candidate myself. No wonder Mark Levin is saying what he is. I also believe Mark Levin has been hearing some rumblings behind the scenes that we have not. He said a few weeks ago that he will trash ANYONE who goes third party. I have heard a certain pundant saying they would vote Ron Paul 3rd party over Newt. Hmmmmmmmmm
Progressives are pro-big government. Newt contributed to the growth of big government. Therefore, it’s fair to call Newt a progressive.
The real problem is this, there are almost as many big government so-called “conservatives” as there are big government “liberals.” Conservatives just want their type of big government. Remember Medicare Part D (Santorum voted for it, Newt lobbied for it, undoubtedly, Mitt would have supported it). That extra-constitutional legislation was passed by a republican House, Senate and signed by a republican president. Hmmm...exactly where in the Constitution does Congress or the president find the authority to pass Medicare Part D? Crickets.
Every one of the candidates including Obama will raise their hand to uphold and defend the Constitution and then immediately violate it with their policies they’re promoting. And you trust these people? Hmmm, how strange.
