I’m not sure he’s obliged to give the die yards on FR a pound of his flesh.

Newt also said last week that it's time for Conservatives to accept gay marriage. I guess you're OK with that too.

"...it's time for Conservatives to accept gay marriage..."

It is comments like this that eradicate completely any vestige of respect I may have retained for his conservative past.

Regardless of anything else that happens, I do not have to accept this. I can have it imposed on me, pushed on me, forced on me, legislated on me, but if I think it is wrong (which I do) I will never, ever "accept" it of my own free will.

And for Gingrich to say that, well...that is the same as people like him saying we have to "accept" amnesty and uncontrolled immigration.

If those two things alone banish me to a political exile for refusing to willingly go along, then that is the way it is going to be.

Compromising with evil means accepting evil. There is no "win-win" in it.

Well that is not exactly what Newt said, he gave a far more detailed reasoning and explanation to the problem of republicans vs gay marriage. As usual, he is right.
