When I heard Newt Gingrich say out of his own mouth that the progressive political movement has done more to help our country than any other...he lost me for good.

I did a search and couldn't find that....even on liberal wikipedia.

Iowa is not a good cross section of the American Pulse, it is full of hay shakers and pig farmers, that know nothing but the price of corn, and hogs. Colorado, or New York would be a much better cross section, with lots of minorities and different views, we place too much importance of Iowa, when it;s only claim to fame is that it is first. We all know Mitt is a empty suit, Newt is the only answer/

IIRC, I read on an FR thread that the “progressive tattoo” was recently “applied” by Glenn Beck.

Heard him say it with his own words...I am working on getting a copy of that recording.

Believe me I was a huge Newt fan and at one point way way back dreamed someday he might be President.

But the fact is...he is a progressive. We might like some of the choices he would make but if we are honest and really believe and support the US Constitution his methods would not be acceptable.
