I wouldn’t say that Dr. Sowell is agreeing with Newt’s illegal alien idea, but read the second to the last paragraph. It’s the old no one’s perfect and we gotta quit looking for perfection in our candidates. That’s the same old song Newt’s backers on this forum have been singing.
I'm a Gingrich backer, and that's not what I am saying. As far as I am concerned, Gingrich is the only Republican candidate actually behaving like a president right now. You might HATE his immigration proposal, but you have to respect the fact that he is the only candidate who has actually presented one. His opponents have reduced themselves to fearmongering the same way the left has kept the Social Security debate going for decades.
