It was a label that Gingrich embraced, saying that in the area of healthcare, "I'm a Theodore Roosevelt Republican and I believe government can lean in the regulatory leaning is okay," according to the transcript of the Glenn Beck radio show.

and thew reason why you had so many names is because you were banned and have you thought why?

yes because you are a bore, a libertarian who keeps spouting liberal issues and an agenda.

You obviously have not figured all of this out yet but hopefully you will.

Why don’t you try spending some time in the Library of Congress Thomas Database to learn exactly what Gingrich has done instead of siding with the Tories...

It’s 1775 again glad you are content to side with British!

Beck is a Mormon. If he doesn’t pull for Mitt, he won’t be awarded his own god planet and 93 virgins in the afterlife. (Don’t they get 21 more than the muzzies?)

[I haven’t read this thread so I apologize if I’m repeating what’s already been discussed.]

I am starting to think we need a comprehensive list of Zots. But then the list would take up too much bandwidth...
