Gingrich Slams Obama Administration as ‘Pro-Islamic’
WSJ ^ | February 28, 2012 | Danny Yadron

Posted on 04/20/2013 6:43:23 AM PDT by george76

There’s something sick about an administration which is so pro-Islamic that it can’t even tell the truth about the people who are trying to kill us,” Mr. Gingrich said ...

Mr. Gingrich accused the White House of being unwilling to discuss threats from some Muslims. And he slammed President Barack Obama for mounting a “war” on the Catholic Church over contraception but apologize to Afghan President Hamid Karzai over the burning of Qurans.

How do you mean? According to the stats in Wikipedia Bush won 90% of the Muslim vote. I suspect without the Muslim vote in Florida he would not have been president.

A Capt. Obvious moment if ever there was one.

Hey don't knock it. At least some one is out there telling like it is.

More than I can say for any of our so called "representatives".

I want to win them back in order to do so we must listen to their concerns and present policy solutions.

You're not going to win them back because the Muslims you're talking about are old and more and more die off every year, secondly there are not as many business owners today as there was before Obama took office.

The GOP's best chance to win more votes in nearly ALL groups is to run a conservative candidate who is articulate and knows how to sell the product called "Conservatism".

After the barn door has closed and the horse is dead, newt pops up with his newfangled barn locks for sale. Where was he before the death(s)?

Sorry, kids, outrage afterward is easy.

Another person giggling themselves to not facing reality, I see. The immigration problem will have to be resolved at some point for this nation. Like- > border enforcement, stopping illegals from getting financial assistance like Perry in Texas has done which I don't like. This new immigration bill should be opposed. I have posted that many times when others were saying hold on.

Main story-Newt calls Obama out as being pro-Islamic.

Might want to know the facts before asking others to follow.

He has been saying this even during/before the primary.

The whole Democrat party is Pro anybody against America.
Just like the Nazi party joining forces with the Muslims in WW2.

Yea, I said it, and it must be pointed out.

Not so much “Pro-Islamic” as they are “Pro-Jihad against US for their own ends.”
Zero IS muslim, so his thing is “Jihad good, America bad” and so he’ll use every attack on us as an excuse to berate us about how bad and evil we are.
And then use the attacks as an excuse to restrict and infringe our rights.

We have a muslim in the white house, who is more concerned about protecting his people than keeping America safe.

Today Larry Kudlow had Washington DC, former US Attorney Joe DiGenova on his radio show and DiGenova laid the blame for the FBI cutting the terrorist brother loose directly on Obama and his policy of Muslim appeasement.

You said 90%, but be that as it may, don't you think 9/11 and our response to it created the dynamics for such a reversal? 9/11 was a stark manifestation of Islamic fundamentalism. We has already had under Clinton thefirst bombing of the WTC, bombings of our embassies in East African and the attack on the USS Cole. OBL had already declared war on the US in his 1996 fatwah.

The difference was that Bush actually responded to these attacks.

No, they’re not. There’s reasons why the vote has flipped and unfortunately too many on our side have used anti-Muslim rhetoric and painted a broad brush so they don't feel welcome in the GOP.

What GOP politician has employed "anti-Muslim rhetoric?" It has been just the opposite. Bush always paid respect to the religion of Islam. The emphasis was always that AQ represented a small minority of Muslims.

And you still have yet to define pro-Islamic. What do you mean by that term?

The Dems are also masters at motivating and appealing to voting blocks and also keeping them. Very worrying. Jews, Hispanics and African Americans all overwhelmingly vote Democrat.The Dems play identity politics. They support affirmative action and minority business set asides that reinforce and reward group identification. The Dems have always received the overwhelming majority of votes from Jews, Hispanics, and blacks (I don't feel compelled to use the PC term.") The problem is that minorities are making up more and more of the population due to our immigratiion polices (87% of the 1.2 million legal immigrants who enter annually are minorities as defined by the USG) and higher minority birthrates, particularly among Hispanics--53% of whom self-identify as white.)

By 2019 half of the children 18 and under will be minorities. Each cohort that turns 18 each year will be more and more minority and more Dem. By 2042 half of the country will be minorities. In 1970 89% of the population was non-Hispanic whites. Today it is 66% and declining.

Romney won the non-Hispanic white vote in every age category and gender. His 59% of the non-Hispanic white vote would have probably won in 2008 and certainly in 2004. Obama even with his failed Presidency still won by 5 million votes despite the fact that he received 4 million less votes than in 2008. Romney received one million more votes than McCain. We have had a tipping point and entered into a period of tribal voting. The economy and a President's record appears to matter less than what group you belong to. The Dems have been cultivating this strategy since 1965 when they passed the 1965 Immigration Act to make America look more like the rest of the world than just Western Europe.

GOP needs more than just the white vote these days. I hope you’ll help me build coalitions and find that support.

You are tilting at windmills. Unless we reduce the numbers of legal immigrants entering each year and stop the looming amnesty, the GOP will be the permanent minority party. Even if it moves to become Dem lite, it will still not be enough.

Newt said this back in Feb of 2012 and he was right on. Americans lost the change to elect a man that would have been the greatest president since Reagan.

What could have and should have been and we are all paying the price today. NOT one single candidate running was on Newt’s level.
Trying to survive 3 plus years of Obommie the Commie
