I say Newt is one of the people who has crafted Washington DC and is one of the reasons it is what it is today.
I worked in the automotive field for a while and Newt reminds me of one automotive term “RE-TREAD”
I want to be lead BY EXAMPLE!
Gingrich is for cap and trade.
Gingrich voted to permit the Federal Reserve to purchase Treasury Debt, thereby allowing monetization of all fiscal deficits through inflation.
Gingrich was one of the few who voted against the 1984 bill requiring the President and Congress to submit a balanced budget.
If anything, all this experience running something that is massively in debt makes him better suited to serve as our chief executive.
If Newt Gingrich can wangle his way out of his campaigns financial hole, then he will have demonstrated once and for all that he is the man America needs.
And its quite an impressive hole. He owes $451,946 to something called Moby Dick Airways, apparently a group of specialists in flying great white whales from place to place. No, wait, Im sorry, they charter private flights for Republican political figures.
He also owes five figures to himself for travel expenses, which is in addition to the $42,000 he already paid himself for an address book and possibly maybe did not quite remember to tell the FEC about.
THAT IS NOT LEADING BY EXAMPLE!!
NO NEWT IS GOOD NEWT!!
I thought about you today when someone posted a story about Chicago republicans supporting Gingrich. I remember those same Chicago republicans telling people to write in Abe Lincoln rather than vote for you.
He is?
Cap-and-trade has no impact on global temperatures.
Gingrich signed the Contract From America The Contract from America, clause 2. Reject Cap & Trade: Stop costly new regulations that would increase unemployment, raise consumer prices, and weaken the nation's global competitiveness with virtually no impact on global temperatures.
