Now Newt ... let’s not tell fibs and look to be excused for endorsing green socialism.
newt .....
I’m somewhat of a Newt fan, but his explanation is weak. If you grant the opposition the ability to control the terms of the debate, you are already at a disadvantage. If Newt really believes that global warming is unproven, and that, even if it is happening, human activity is not to blame, then he must make that argument at the outset.

He's full bore in favor of entitlement spending and global warming nonsense.
Newt is a drag on the GOP, part of the problem and not part of a solution.
He went on with Pelosi which turned me off. I found that unforgivable.
I am tired of Republicans kissing the butts of Democrats.
I am tired of kinder gentler and a new tone, it was a wasted effort and look where it got us.
Newt's kissing of socialist-Dem pie-holes like Pelosi and Hillary is soooo "bipartisan."
What a sackless sap this man has become.
Of course it's weak. It's a BS snowjob meant to bamboozle the conservatives who remember the Newt circa 1994. THAT Newt no longer exists in this reality.
MSNBC has a great career lined up for this political turncoat.
I gave Newt a pretty hard time over the Pelosi photo. I mean, I was SCREAMING!!
I like your wild turkey comment. I’m sad that Newt found enough drugs to appear with Pelosi.
What the hell was he thinking as the preparations for that ad went forward? He had many opportunities to back out!
Frankly, I couldn't disagree more! Gingrich did nothing to pursuade or convert the thinking of a single EnvironMentalist to return to commonsense treatment of the environment by appearing in this ad to lend support to the dominant left positions of Gore and Pelosi!!!
This lame explanation of his makes me think of a conservative Christian national leader publically reaching out and joining in with the militant Prop 8 "marchers" and trying to tell his fellow Christian conservatives that they shouldn't get upset at how the spoiled, sex obsessed preverts refuse to get it through their heads that Prop 8 was never about their "civil rights," but rather about CA's Judicial Branch overturning the voted will of the people in prior propostion 22! Then telling all of us we need to join in the perv's parades with their drum-beat in order to pursuade them of their error!!!
Gingrich has fed all of us this line before when he was ridin high and mighty, but he's got a weakness for GANG-GREEN thinking and "Big GovernMental CONservatisme" that betrays righteous, consistent, courageous and genuine commonsense conservatism!!!
He's just uncomfortable in risking a complete commitment to full conservatism with it's belief in a God-given world, with God-given rights and it's rejection of the fairytale that Earth's environment is fully in man's control and so delicate that everyone must bend to the will of the EnvironMental demigogs and look back into a return to "Born Again Paganism!!!"

Orwell's Children Very interesting thread

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign and military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
I want energy independence & cheap energy. Who wants pollution? Thanks for your thoughts.
Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich recently did a global warming ad with Nancy Pelosi that was sponsored by Nobel Laureate Al Gore's Alliance for Climate ProtectionOh, we already know the reason. Thanks neverdem.
GW alarmists want to stop one gas: CO2. CO2 is not a toxin. It is normal and healthy.
In fact you CANNOT die from CO2 poisoning because is it not a poison.
This is about controlling the economy and the money that flows from energy production and sales in all forms.
Newt is full of crap. I heard him on Rush and he had a completely different story. All he has to do is say. “I was wrong.”
Thanks for the ping!
Pitiful explanation if you ask me.
Thanks for the post. Newt is odd in that he at times says one thing passionately and then does another (like this) that is opposite of what he so passionately and seemingly intelligently stands by. I guess now that we know he does this one can expect more of this from him, but it negates trust quickly. I think you are right all we need to do is show up at the table to say prove it and if you are so worried about alternatives why are you so against coal, nuclear, and oil drilling? This is how we need to show up at the table. Notice Newt was ‘general’ when talking about what we need to bring to the table. He listed ideals and values—which is great—but says nothing specific. Politicians.
Debate indicates refutation of another’s assertions
Where’s the debate aspect of your “debate” with pelosi, eh newt?
You’re so “brilliant”, surely you can see the lie behind man made global warming and attack that lie without appearing to give the con artists a standing by being seen at their side.
Check out respiratory acidosis.
In some situations, CO2 can kill you. Normally, it doesn't.
