Video of Newt Bashing Reagan Bogus

Thanks to Dan Riehl for this.

There’s a short excerpt of a 1988 C-SPAN video purportedly showing Newt Gingrich bashing Reagan when talking about how Bush, Sr. should run. As I suspected, it’s edited to give a false impression. What you don’t see is immediately after when Gingrich praises Reaganism and the Reagan platform. If you can’t watch it all, it begins at about 2:30 in to confirm it’s the same segment. It’s the minute or two afterward you also need to hear to understand that Newt wasn’t bashing Reagan at all.

See Video here...go viral.

Good morning DEar Friends:

Does Newt have a prayer? Please cheer me up.

I didn’t watch the debate last night because I was out. DIdn’t tape it. Haven’t read any of the posts. Depressed as hell from yesterday.

Clearly, Ann Coulter is behind Drudge’s posting of the anti Newt articles.

TGO was sticking up for NEwt last night big time, but then reminded us that he’s for Santorum.

I think Newt has four days to make us all feel great about being Americans with big ideas. The aviation and space is an American venture. It can make us great again.

I've been listening to Rush everyday faithfully since the beginning of this whole campaign and personally it's almost obvious that Rush prefers Newt over all of them. He cannot endorse Newt because he does not want to endorse someone and have them end up making a major gaffe or losing the nomination. You can also sense that he does not like Romney. But again, if Romney wins he will get behind the Republican nominee.
Rush wants to avoid being responsible for choosing the nominee. He does not want the nominee to appear to be "annoited".

My interpretation as well.

I really think Limbaugh has become Clinonized, trying to play both sides.

He said he didn’t remember anything like this from Newt, and then he said more or less “but he did it, it’s on video.”

-—Is the media up there shilling for their boy?——

Haven’t heard any that isn’t.

Worcester, like every other city in MA, except for Boston, is dead. Nothing but pawn shops, gov’t offices, and qwik-e-marts. (EBT cards accepted). Would love to get out of here, but have family and business. I’m starting a business, which may eventually allow me to work from home, and then I’ll be out of here.

I have “harped” on no one for name-calling. Its a FR Olympic sport and I excel at it. I only tag people as childish when they act like spoiled, wet-diaper babies or tattletales or when they have to ping their buddies to help them because they’re so terrified of me. That really is pathetic.

[manc]

people are terrified of Deb in CA, OK LOL

[Deb]

“LOL”, really? Haven’t seen that one since my gramma was texting me.

[manc]

you’ve never seen LOL.

WOW

[Deb]

Not in this decade.

[manc]

well we’re only 3 years into it so just get on the PC more and you’ve got a few years

[manc]

or one could look at it as we’re only into this decade2 years and a couple of weeks but hey you out there pretending to be Jim daughter might get you more LOL’s

ARF

[Deb]

I know you have the mind of a four year old, but I'll try again.

I'm not "pretending to be" ANYTHING! If you post on FR, you are part of the family. We are ALL his kids. Got it? Its a JOKE. You and your little petty friends really need to move on and try to live normal lives.

Tip: flame wars aren't your thing. Your responses are making me sad for you.

[manc]

OH please don’t be sad for me just because your sense of humor is a little off.

[manc]

if you ever get out then by all means drop us a note and I’d be more than happy to help you out here.
Just think no Dems in charge here and no emissions on cars, no inspections on cars, taxes low, no state tax.
Come on down the weather is warm.

[Deb]

Enough. I’m sorry. Give us a cuddle.
