Gingrich says it's World War III

Great point. In WW2, fully 10% of the population was mobilized and under arms. By comparison, in this war, less than one tenth of one percent, or .001% is mobilized and under arms.

If we raised a military of even 3-5%, let's say 10,000,000 and really committed ourselves full throttle, we could rid ourselves of this vermin once and for all in under a year.

Newt is also great in debates.

Liberals have to avoid him like poison ivy.

[Ecliptic]

Stop importing from Mexico, Canada, Vietnam, Brazil, and some old Soviet Union Republics?

"A question for armchair strategists out there: What if the Arab world plays it's strongest card, which is an oil embargo? I have not seen this possibility addressed."

The Saudis and the UAE have publicly blamed Hezbollah for starting the current war in Lebanon, and they don't like the Persians in charge of Iran. We could also do well enough on domestic oil. Any embargo of much oil would prompt more drilling and less oil consumption here.

Newt is right about World War III, and he's right about making '06 a nationalized campaign about Rat radicalism.

The GOP has suffered from a lack of clear thinking ever since he stepped down as speaker.

[tomzz]

Yes. Oil is totally fungible. If anything, we should be exporting oil and not importing it. We could easily put ourselves in that position, but the present habit can only be broken the same way you quit smoking, i.e. simply stop it on a given day.

[DarthVader]

I agree with you. We have to take the attitude of the Galatic Empire and crush our enemies without mercy now. We will avoid much pain and suffering which will come later if we do nothing.

A lot of people care about his personal life.. but McCain and Rudy are no better in that regard and Newt is a lot smarter and I trust him a whole lot more. When you look at his eyes when Colmes comes after him they are steely, you just know that he will take no @rap off anyone.

[capt. norm]

same way you quit smoking, i.e. simply stop it on a given day.

That's exactly the same way I quit smoking about 35 years ago. We tend to pamper ourselves too much.

[samtheman]

I personally hold Jimmy Carter responsible for dereliction of duty and every US death at the hands of terrorists in this past quarter century.

Nobody hates Carter more than I do. I've been saying for a long time that he's the worst president we've ever had. A truly treasonous president.

But you can't keep blaming Carter forever. Who just came out the other day and declared that the creeps being held at gitmo deserve Geneva Convention protections? I don't think that was the peanut boy president.

[Arizona Carolyn]

I considered sending McCain an email Friday thanking him for his no vote on ANWR /s

Newt is right on the money. And.....GW Bush better level with the American people. As of today, the USA is never going to be in a better position to take on Iran, Syria and North Korea. GW will be surprised that the overwhelming majority of the American electorate will back him to the maximum.

I'm not reading any further than this reply. This is exactly right on the money. We better get a hold on this as opposed to listening to the Bush/ Klintoon globalists/NWO/CFR pukes.

[umgud]

We need to decimate Syrian and Iranian military capability. We can do this without having to occupy them as we have done in Iraq. Let them spend all their money rebuilding. Tell them that we will repeat if they don't understand the message we have sent. Then tell that little North Korean Puke that he is next if he can't learn by example.

[Arizona Carolyn]

The new President of Iran is spending so much money buying the love and admiration of the Iranian people that they are dependent on $70 a barrel oil already.

[Perdogg]

I would vote for Newt over anything the Dummycraps have to offer, but there is NO way he's getting my primary vote.

[paul51]

One of the few pols making any sense. Pres. Bush also needs to change the common terminology from war on terror to war with islamic fascists worldwide.

[Quix]

I think he's probably right.

Whether it's his personal opinion or info from the puppet masters he's been close enough to, to know at least about.

[capt. norm]

"9-11" was the "Pearl Harbor" of this war but we always seem to be slow to catch on.
