I posted the whole story. If you’ve a mind to, click on the link to donate or just look around.
Didn’t read it all yet but the WSJ has a hit piece about how obastard is going to win and how Newt has a Nero complex and all that rot.
Short and succinct but do we have enough gold to back the currency?
Really, Newt, no grammer checking?
I’m pretty sure I’m getting numb to all this stuff. I really don’t see how anyone can be inspired by what either obastard, newt, Cain or any other politician has to say anymore.
Newt’s response seems awfully thin to me but sound bites are what sell I suppose. I just don’t know where they sell though.
OUTSTANDING...now that is what the GOP response should have been.
Direct, to the point, and not candy coating it. Simply the truth.
God grant that we can remove Obama in 2012 and get a conservative president, House and Senate...and the same in most of the several states...so we can begin truly turning this thing around.

No spell checking?
When we were on the gold standard we didn't have enough gold to back the currency. The Gold Standard merely fixes the value of the dollar and makes a covenant to redeem it for Gold. If there was a run on the gold backed dollar, there would not be enough gold to keep the covenant.
The fact is that there is not enough gold in the world to pay off the US National Debt, much less to back future currency.
That might be a hit piece attempt but it fails badly. The problem is that the WSJ are a part of the establishment elite. Therefore, the WSJ is a part of the problem. They live in their protective bubble and don’t seem to recognize the discontent all across the country. They’ll be just as surprised as the Democrats on election night this Nov. They learned NOTHING from the 2010 election victory. For smart people, they sure are stupid.
“the WSJ has a hit piece “
Yes, but it attacks Mitt for being a loser too.
We all might want a better candidate, but we have to fight the battle with the army that we have and Newt is our best hope. The WSJ is quite right about Mitt. Mitt is a robot dud who will put people to sleep.
But, Newt has proven he can attract voter attention with his public speaking and debating, can win sizable elections and can inspire and build enthusiasm for the election and his leadership.
He isn’t perfect, but unlike the Democrats, we are not looking for a god come down from the heavens to lead us. Newt is the perfectly flawed man to lead us in a difficult time. Go Newt!
“The fact is that there is not enough gold in the world to pay off the US National Debt, much less to back future currency. “
Yes, the gold standard is a truly stupid idea that shouldn’t be an issue for informed conservatives. There are better solutions to our currency problems.
Response two;OUTSTANDING...now that is what the GOP response should have been.
Direct, to the point, and not candy coating it. Simply the truth.
Had to post this contrast in opinions, one following the other. I found it fascinating.
That would be, "Grammar checking."
Yeah. Hume keeps saying we're in for 4 more years of hussein if Newt gets the nomination too. His proof is hussein's game plan has only one opponent on it and that's Romney.
That is what I thought.
Ping
Not sure who has a Newt Ping List.
Nero fiddled while the capital of Rome burned. If Newt ends up doing the same thing, I'll say he's a hero because he's doing what we elected him to do.
They learned something alright. Tea Party isn't exactly Wall Street. More like Main St. Hussein or Romney, tomato/tomata, either works for the elite. Newt is a wild card, and scares them.
