Come on...

If we can’t have an honest debate on FR, we are in bad shape.

The response Newt made about “right wing social engineering” was not a critique of Ryan’s plan. He had previously complimented Ryan on his plan on not one, but two national MSM appearances. On a third (or fourth) appearance, he was asked how a mandate by Republicans was different from a mandate by the libs/progressives. Ryan’s plan, as I understand it was NOT a mandate. Gingrich’s response was that “right wing social engineering is just as bad as left wing social engineering” (think Romney care).

As usual, the lib/progressive media cabal took his comment out of context, and claimed it was a direct critique of Ryan’s plan. It wasn’t. Same “Palinization” template the media has consistently applied to Newt throughout his career.

Proving once again that “a lie can go ‘round the world before the truth can get it’s pants on.”

Get a accurate argument, please.

So when Paul Ryan told Mark Levin that Newt had called him and apologized, what was Newt apologizing for.
