Reading this piece makes me hopeful. I am currently reading Armageddon, Oil, and Terror...a bit unnerving. I am glad Gingrich offers solutions and not just talk, that is what I want—a map, no more wandering around aimlessly.
Then reading Maxine Waters comments today...UGH!
“She also noted that if Democrats re-take the majority, she would become the chairman of the House Committee on Financial Services, the committee that regulates Wall Street.”
The lady who said/did this:
The Shell exec said paying $5 at the pump “will look like a very low price in the years to come if we are prohibited from finding new reserves, new opportunities to increase supplies.”
Waters responded, in part, “And guess what this liberal would be all about. This liberal will be about socializing … uh, um. …”
The congresswoman paused to collect her thoughts.
“Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies. …”
The oil executives responded, according to Fox News, by saying they’ve seen this before, in Hugo Chavez’s Venezuela.

Then recently there was this:
The former president of Shell Oil, John Hofmeister, says Americans could be paying $5 for a gallon of gasoline by 2012.

We really need to work hard to hold the house and gain the senate and I think we need Gingrich as our president. He has a plan and he has been working on some of these problems for years and he has solutions. That is what I want, solutions! Cheap gas would be a nice added benefit... :)
Though right now I’m pretty much only concerned with trying to save this country from going under, because it sure feels like that is where we are headed unless we turn this around fast.
Go Gingrich! I’m counting on you!
Irenic, is this fast enough for you? :)
"Newt, Explain Your First 30 Days as President"
I will ask the Congress to stay in session on the third of January. I will ask them to repeal Obamacare, Dodd-Frank, and Sarbanes-Oxley. My request will be to have all three repeals ready so that on the day that I am sworn in, I can sign all three repeals that day. That's a real start. I will then on the first day.... -- Newt Gingrich
Watch the video to find out what else Newt Gingrich will do in the first thirty days as president to turn this economy around.
