I thought John McCain had the stones to be a hard-*** candidate. He was the one who dropped the f-bomb on Sen. John Cornyn. He had a tough reputation. Then he announced his candidacy and lost his balls. His daughter - idiot that she is - has more guts than he does.

I fear the same thing will happen to Newt. When it comes to handing the dems some attitude - who are we gonna depend on? Milk-toast Mitt? Hardly.

We do need a Newt who can essentially tell the gays to shove it (no pun intended). And if Newt is more Nixonian than McCain?

Good.

Did this man expect Gingrich to change all his positions simply to pick up his support?

Either that, or he was hoping to manufacture a confrontation so he could call Newt a "bigot." Love that Newt beat him to the punch, because liberals really count on conservatives being afraid of the names they call us.

Despite what the Left wants people to believe, gay people care about these issues just as much as anyone else.

Some do. I get along great with them. But most of them really do seem to care more about sex than anything else. In fact, that's my working definition of a liberal: someone who cares about sexual freedom... and not any other kind of freedom.

” God forbid this loose cannon becomes our candidate.”

Because he told a Democrat to go ahead and vote for a Democrat. You make no sense what so ever

Gotta agree with you there. Nixon got fried for stuff Democrats do in first grade.

All the peeps in Obama’s orbit are gay, so he can’t imagine there being a non-gay majority.

His daughter certainly has a BIGGER GUT ~ but if you think she's courageous, simply recall how she bought into all the Leftwingtard nostrums and notions that've been totally discredited for centuries.

The woman is a dunce. A chubby dunce.

"When you ask somebody a question and you expect them to support all Americans and have everyone's general interest," Arnold said. "It's a little bit frustrating and disheartening when you're told to support the other side, that he doesn't need your support."

No, the guy was trying to bait Newt. The question was basically "what are you going to do for us" and Newt responded that gays would get nothing special from him. Why should they? We only have this guy's side of the story, but if indeed Newt told him to vote for Obama, why shouldn't he say that? The gay has no intention of voting for Newt. If Newt had pandered like Romney would have, dems, Romney and the MSM would spout the "Newt's pandering to gays, he's not really conservative, see, see." At least Newt didn't fall for the set up.

If Newt keeps telling everyone who disagrees with him about anything to vote for Obama, Obama might become the second unanimously-elected President.

Considering that about 1.5% of the population is homosexual I’d say Newt has his priorities straight.

So. You would vote for Obama over Romney. Got it. Good to know.

That is a nonsensical response, and wholly juvenile to boot, IMO.

Romney is much worse than Gingrich as far as subscribing to lefty ideals, and to believe that we MUST win the election REGARDLESS of the CONSEQUENCES is stunningly ignorant from any and all perspectives, IMO.

If it comes down to supporting Romney or Gingrich with no other options, you are cutting your own throat to support Romney and in fact, a vote for Romney is a vote for the Obama/Marxist agenda. Gingrich isn't much better than Obama or Romney, but he's easily the more desirable of the three, and if you think Gingrich can't beat Obama, I think you're deluding yourself, but that's just my own opinion.

Most Gays have a fundamental problem understanding they already have the same rights as everyone else in the country. What some want is SPECIAL rights.
