I'm officially endorsing Newt Gingrich for president today. Was going to wait until after Florida, but see no reason to delay. We need Newt to win in South Carolina and Florida to stop any possible momentum building up for the establishment big government, statist, abortionist RINO!!

“It’s time to choose a horse that can win, and Newt is the obvious choice. “
You really think a pudgy angry guy can win? It’s nice that he can excite conservatives but I doubt he can win a general election.
Sniff. Check out this even worse post by runninglips: I for one am glad this President is defending our borders from the influx of illegal energy.
How can Romney beat obama when he could not even beat John Mc Cain?
I am opposed to contraception. Ideally the American people would agree with Santurm, the Pope, and myself. But in the abscence of such agreement I would love to see the Vaticans legally will imposed on the American people.
I am not opposed to contraception. Not everyone desires or can afford to be the Duggers. Furthermore, I am not Catholic and the Vatican has no business legally imposing anything on anyone.
I don't believe in my heart that Romney will pan out as a President that will roll back government. I believe he has the best chance of victory over 0bama.
I also think Ron Paul as President would be the only one with a chance to rally support for a roll back of our Socialist/Fascist govt. By fascist, I mean govt supported business, like pre-WWII Italy. Not nazi imposed death squads, and murders. Look up fascist government definition if you would please.
Does anyone else remember this?
Rush was partially right about this one. Democrats do defend their own, after a fashion. But the Ruling Class did not like Jim Wright. Newt took point on the ethics fight that ended Speaker Wright's too-long congressional career but it was Democrat in-fighting that brought him down. Newt is given too much credit for the intra-caucus battle that did not end with Wright's election to the Speaker's chair after Tip O'Neill.
Wright had been Majority Leader for more than a decade after winning that election by a single vote on the second ballot defeating two stalwart elitist Prog favorites as a long shot after the 1976 election.
Wright was never well-liked after the stripped down Socialist N.E. & Calif. Democrat/Labor/NAACP coalition emerged as an Insider nomenklatura after Watergate. They were relieved to survive both Wright and his chief rival, the Chicago thief and gangster Danny "Rosty" Rostenkowski, destroyed each another in late 1986.
Wright was "shaky" to the True Believing Left, and not a college graduate. He was a White southern Democrat at a time of very precipitous decline. He voted against the first Civil Rights Acts and the "Voting Rights" Act.
But make no mistake. Wright was (and still is) a partisan Democrat who started out as Sam Rayburn's protege' and arrived with the first term of the 40 year-long Democrat reign in 1955.
Nevertheless, at best he was a wannabe Progressive, left over from the days when there was essentially one Party in Texas, one Party with two wings. Until John Tower the "Conservatives" and the "Progressive, not-Liberals" wings of the Democrat Party settled elections in the Party primary.
By 1986, Wright's time had come and gone already, and he was way over his head. The Party passed him by on their way into Deep Left Field, the very place where they have managed to strand the whole nation today, and uncomfortably out in the open.
That's a place the Socialist Democrat hard-liners have never function very well.
But in the Eighties, Newt blasted Wright, without question, and he got the attention for it but the GOP did not retake the House for another five years after Wright's resignation.
Wright's marketable skill was fundraising, and when he lost that he was of no more use to the Left elites, and the School that emerged with the 1974 election (e.g., George Miller and Henry Waxman of California, the former owing his seat to Wright's PAC).
Point is this, of course Rush was right-on, on all point but one point. The Legacy Media Elite pukes of the time did not hate Newt because he had "taken down" Jim Wright. That was an illusion, and they detested Jim Wright, a man who's failure at gaining their respect mirrored Lyndon Johnson's.
They hate Newt because he was (and hopefully still is) a threat to their meal-tickets, a Republican who minds very much being in a near-permanent minority and who worked to take away their pork and perks, rising in the House leadership in a fashion ironically similar to the methods used by Jim Wright.
That's all the Leftist bastards need to make anyone their target.
Romney and Huntsman are related. (Think grandfather in Mexico with five wives)
Huntsman family business is intertwined with Bain, Romney's business.
Knowing this, why did Huntsman only run in NH? Fishy fishy fishy..... Was he trying to get the ABM/R vote from going to one of the conservatives????
Why not be transparent about their relationship? Daddy Huntsman is quoted as saying he's know Willard since he was a baby.....Why not come out with their relationship?
;)
Beck just said about who he would vote for, Better the Devil you know, (Obama) than the Devil you dont know(Gingrich).
_______________________________________________
Did he not say immediately right after this something about voting third party ???
Dang! I wished I could find a trascript because I’m SURE he said something regarding third party voting after he said the quote above.
Record Huh?
Well......
That's where a record comes in. Not just the record of votes, which is often a meaningless toll of positions taken for political reasons on bills that were always going to pass or were never going to pass, but a record of actions taken that actually mattered.
A record of actions taken that actually mattered. Newt is the man who fits that description to a "T".
He can identify what is most important to the country, develop a plan to overcome that challenge, articulate the the merits of overcoming the challenge and why the plan will work.
I hadn't been for Gingrich initially and spent plenty of energy excoriating him, these last several years, for any number of sins he committed against the Republican/Conservative ideals. He seemed a turncoat of sorts, particularly when he babysat Pelosi on the couch.
On reflection, Newt is an attention whore seeking relevancy for his ideas and I guess I take him at his word that he made a few mistakes in his life and he has at least some regret for those decisions. God knows I am no angel and so I have to reflect on the man's ability to get things done.
Newt gave us the Republican majority, the Contract with America and completed 2/3rds of his agenda while in office.
He now has a new plan for America and with what is likely to become a Congressional Super Majority and a Senate Majority, if not Super Majority, I believe he will absolutely accomplish his agenda.
Say goodbye to ObamaCare the single biggest scam and travesty foisted upon a free people who, by right, ought to have been given the opportunity to read the bill and debate it. Instead, a win at all cost, cheating agenda was developed and it was signed with most people never laying eyes on at least page 2 of this utopian dreck.
Executive Orders Positions:
The following are all within the executive powers to simply order and with the exception of securing the border within one year, they are all easily accomplished with the stroke of a pen and no way to challenge them in the legislature.
Keystone may be challenged in the courts but I think the Executive can order the EPA to approve, under National Security Priorities and it is a National Security issue, as well, a jobs issue.
As President, Newt, could actually have a very busy 1st week or month just on these initiative alone.
1. Eliminate the thirty-nine White House "Czar" positions created during the current administration. The president does not have the authority to appoint bureaucrats to power who are not accountable to the Congress.
2. "Mexico City Policy" of Respect for Life. Reauthorize President Ronald Reagan’s policy – also known as the "Mexico City Policy"— to stop tax payer dollars from being used to fund or promote abortions in foreign countries.
3. Restore conscience clause protections for Healthcare Workers.No American working in a medical environment should be forced to perform any procedure that he or she finds morally or ethically objectionable based on religious teaching. This protection should include, but not be limited to abortion. Existing conscience clause protections need to be strengthened.
4. Respect Each Sovereign Nation’s Choice of its Capital. Each sovereign nation, under international law and custom, may designate its own Capital. Accordingly, the U.S. State Department should be instructed to respect the choice of each sovereign nation and place the American embassy in their Capital. (Israel is the only country the United States discriminates against in this regard. The people of Israel have designated Jerusalem as their capital. Yet the United States retains its embassy in Tel Aviv.)
5. End the Attorney General's Assault on the States. Instruct the Attorney General to withdraw all immigration-related lawsuits against states immediately, including those pending in Arizona and South Carolina. The Obama Administration refuses to enforce federal immigration laws, and instead sues states who are merely trying to enforce the laws that the federal government neglects. The Gingrich Administration will secure the border by Jan. 1, 2014 by any means necessary.
Unleash American Energy by Approving the Keystone XL Pipeline. Instruct the State Department to approve a Presidential Permit immediately for the Keystone XL pipeline, a project that will send 700,000 barrels of oil a day from Great Plains and Southwestern states to Gulf Coast refineries lower staggering energy prices, and create up to 120,000 American jobs.
Now we get into the details of an inclusive agenda that brings the people(you and me), through their representatives, into process. The TEA Party and conservatives are going to have a majority in both houses.
Let’s elect an Executive who will absolutely fulfill the promise of our ideals.
Newt gave us the three most important victories of the 90’s Welfare Reform, Balanced Budget and Reduced Taxes. I hope I don’t need to describe the benefits of those victories. They ought to be obvious to everyone by now.
Lastly, there have been some reports that Newt shouldn’t get all the credit. Really? Then perhaps we marginalize the accomplishments of Washington, Roosevelt, Kennedy and ….wait for it… Reagan.
Do we really want to go down the road with that kind of adolescent sophistry and parsing of what happened?
Newt is the guy who thought of these big things, proposed them and shepherded their implementation?
Newt has once again identified what is important to us now, at this time and described how we can get there with our representative majorities. He has done it before and I declare Newt Gingrich was then and is Now a leader.
We should elect Newt Gingrich to the Presidency of the United States
“Firebrand”, eh? Well, nothing good ever came from a firebrand...oh, well, there was that Patrick Henry feller. Wonder whatever happened to him?
Record Huh?
Well......

Let's go back to 2006 and see what Newt had to say about RomneyCare, shall we?
Gingrich writes that the most exciting development of the past few weeks is what has been happening up in Massachusetts. The health bill that Governor Romney signed into law this month has tremendous potential to effect major change in the American health system.
Gingrich writes that he and his colleagues agree entirely with Governor Romney and Massachusetts legislators that our goal should be 100% insurance coverage for all Americans. He strongly endorses the individual mandate: The individual mandate requires those who earn enough to afford insurance to purchase coverage, and subsidies will be made available to those individuals who cannot afford insurance on their own. We agree strongly with this principle.
Gingrich - 2006: Romneycare is 'Exciting' and 'Has Tremendous Potential'
Do you know anything about a Mormon being in charge before there can be a second coming? Had a friend who had once belonged to the faith try to explain, but we didn’t have time for a full discussion and have not been able to find information on what she was trying to tell me.
So now you have gone from pimping Romney to behind kissing of Romney, do what you need to do.
Bye Bye
Ron alterPaul is a racist, anti-Semitic, 9/11 truther, muslim sympathizer.........who cares what other ideas he has.
The man is insane.
