Another round of Newt bashing? Attack ideas, not people. The people *must* decide.

no it’s a 34R.

Gingrich is a progressive; if he runs against Obama we will have Emperor Obama in office for life and the nation is finished. Santorum is who we need.

“It cannot be said that Beck hasn’t learned a thing or two from his
opposition. In Jaw dropping displays of friendly fire, he has pummeled
his own audience, and the Tea Party in general, with relentless
Alinskyite tactics. He has mastered the art of the out-of-context
sound bite, using Media Matters techniques to create a profound rift in
the Conservative movement. Accusations of racism, ignorance, and most
recently, anti-Mormon bigotry have erupted from the radio in a stream
of marginalizing rhetoric that even the likes of Barack Obama should
find impressive. How ironic that a man who has railed so heavily
against Progressive’s use Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals should show
himself to be a master practitioner of the craft.”

Tony,

At least try to make an argument.  Beck is simply “bashing” Newt with Newt’s own words.  Is everybody just supposed to ignore the things Newt himself has said and done over the years because it is unflattering to Newt?  Everyone of these GOP candidates have their blemishes and baggage.  Getting mad at the facts doen’t change them.  Like it or not, Newt cannot praise as heroes Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and FDR and not be a Big Government Progressive.  He may be a Big Government Progressive with a conservative twist, but he is a Big Government Progressive nonetheless.

Romney may not be the perfect candidate, but at least he is a Free Market Capitalist.  We conservatives used to admire those who found success without feeding from the government trough.

Look, if you guys don’t like what Glenn is saying about Gingrich then why do you continue to get onto his site and listen to him?  Especially when you read the title of the article.  You know how he feels about Gingrich, he’s explained why he feels that way, so what’s the problem?  Just because you like Gingrich for some reason doesn’t mean Glenn is discredited in some way.
Please, go vote for Gingrich.  At this point I don’t care anymore and I think our country has been led so far into ignorance that we’re not going to make the right decision and save our country.
I’ll prepare myself and patiently wait to help rebuild it afterwards…

What discredits Glenn is his misleading use of sound bites and his unwillingness to allow anyone to actually discuss the governing records of the candidates on the air.  It would be one thing if he was arguing based on honest issues, but taking these clips out of context and refusing to look at the entire picture is not honest.

Gingrich is a progressive? What a load of crap and a re-write of history.

Why is Mitt rising in the polls? Money and lies. I once liked him, now, not so much. He came out of the gate in Iowa trying to smear every candidate, and it looks like it’s working. I don’t think  it will work against Obama.

A few words of your progressive leader named Beck:

http://theamericanista.tumblr.com/post/16685269478/the-self-destruction-of-glenn-beck

Media Matters uses Glenn’s own words against him…I guess they aren’t bashing either.  I guess he really is a racist.  I guess he really is an antisemite.  Because in the 20 second clip I saw of Glenn IN HIS OWN WORDS, he says things that are clearly racist.

See how that argument doesn’t work?

NEWT GINGRICH – IDEOLOGY FLIP FLOP OR COMPROMISED PRINCIPLES 
In the April 24, 2007 interview with Gingrich, the former House Speaker had the following praise for Freddie Mac and the whole GSE (Government-Sponsored Enterprise) concept:
 
“I think a GSE for space exploration ought to be seriously considered — I’m convinced that if NASA were a GSE, we probably would be on Mars today.
Certainly there is a lot of debate today about the housing GSEs, but I think it is telling that there is strong bipartisan support for maintaining the GSE model in housing. There is not much support for the idea of removing the GSE charters from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. And I think it’s clear why. The housing GSEs have made an important contribution to homeownership and the housing finance system. We have a much more liquid and stable housing finance system than we would have without the GSEs. And making homeownership more accessible and affordable is a policy goal I believe conservatives should embrace. Millions of people have entered the middle class through building wealth in their homes, and there is a lot of evidence that homeownership contributes to stable families and communities.  These are results I think conservatives should embrace and want to extend as widely as possible.”
 
http://thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/10021-gingrichs-freddie-mac-contradictions-just-got-worse
 
 
Back in 2007, the Freddie Mac moderator noted of Gingrich’s pro-Freddie Mac and pro-GSE views that “this is not a point of view one normally associates with conservatives.” Gingrich replied:
 
“Well, it’s not a point of view libertarians would embrace. But I am more in the Alexander Hamilton-Teddy Roosevelt tradition of conservatism. I recognize that there are times when you need government to help spur private enterprise and economic development. Look at our own history. The government provided railroad land grants to encourage widespread adoption of what was then the most modern form of transportation to help develop our country.”
 
http://thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/10021-gingrichs-freddie-mac-contradictions-just-got-worse

Mark Levin: “Newt Gingrich, if he does nothing else, did more for the conservative movement and to stop the liberal Democrats in the House of Representatives than virtually everybody today who is criticizing him!”
http://www.therightscoop.com/mark-levin-newt-did-more-for-the-conservative-movement-than-virtually-all-of-his-critics-today/

“Whatever your stance on Newt Gingrich, one thing is clear, Beck stands
in opposition to every other talk radio host of merit on the air.
Limbaugh, Hannity and Levin have all defended Gingrich against attacks
from the establishment/Romney machine while Beck perpetuates
them…regardless of their accuracy. That is not to say that Beck is
pro-Romney, but it is to say that Beck is decidedly anti-Gingrich, and
that his positions are bound up in an emotional part of Beck’s make-up,
rather than a rational policy based place. Such a thing is hard to
deny as we repeatedly watch Glenn Beck turn on his supporters and bite
the hand that feeds him.”

Dear Mr. West When I consider the past and current positions on the issues of the current slate of RINO candidates vying for President of the United States … it would appear that those with a right wing liberal ideology have taken over the Republican Party … a right wing liberal ideology that does not have a place within the now Marxist Democrat Party.  Why you or Sarah Palin … captial C Conservatives … would align yourselves with any of these candidates prior to the Presidential race against Barack Obama is beyond my understanding.  Mr. West … why you have not entered the race is also beyond my understanding.  I am becoming very frustrated with someone … who I perceive as a great Stateman … for standing on the beach while possessing all the skills to save a drowing America.

Trish, You said exactly what I was thinking.
GENNY is so dishonest now, he uses LEFT tactics to smear anyone who does not agree with him.

Thanks!  Read the whole entry and let me know what you think.

Michael Savage is a very educated man, he dislikes Newt, even offering him 1 Million dollars to get out of the race, Beck is a very smart man as well, so you have a couple of radio talk show hosts against Newt. 

Newts words about being a progressive is out of his own mouth.

There is a difference between a 20 second clip and a 20 year career.  Next your going to tell me that newt is a new virgin>

Have you actually looked at Newt’s voting record in congress?  Does that match up with the picture Glenn is trying to paint with those sound bites?  Sure doesn’t.

Maybe you ought to do a littler research.  Just sayin’.

Micheal Savage is a nut.

Once again…Media Matters uses Glenn’s own words to prove he’s a racist, bigot, homophone, antisemite.  I guess all of that is valid too?  What’s good for the goose…

It’s simple Glenn. Newt has an actual past RECORD of conservative accomplishments that are important to saving this country NOW!

Exactly. People attempt to quote Holy Bible scripture to assist others to reject Christ and the Holy Bible. Cannot pick and choose. Picking sound bites and actions of anyone’s life will show them to be hateful, racist, conservative, liberal, Good and Evil. The entire context is everything.

I agree. 

It’s rewriting history to say that Newt is not a conservative. And as to beating Obama, of course he could.

Show me them in context. Because his RECORD, as well as his books and films, all show otherwise.

I agree, the negative ads and money talk.  It wont be so easy with Obama. Glenn has been smearing as much as Romney.

Glenn must have missed Art Laffer’s and Thomas Sowell’s endorsement of Gingrich weeks ago.

“Who could have seen this coming? This once blazing star of the right, a
man who could have been called the crown prince of conservative media,
has spent all of his constructive potential in a supernova-like burst
that has now begun to collapse inward with all the makings of a cold,
dark, self destructive black hole. The only questions are, how much
damage will the collapse do to Beck, and how much damage will we allow
it to do to the conservative movement?”

http://theamericanista.tumblr.com/post/16685269478/the-self-destruction-of-glenn-beck

Because we have a right to respond to him.

Yeah, I read that article.

It is a DEVASTATING  take down of the Beckster and long overdue.

I hope he reads it, but he may have another incident?
He has 1 or 2 every year as well as run-ins with public he uses to gain sympathy and mislead his fans.

The artidle is fair and tells Huckster that he has a chance to save his career, but he won’t I assure you.

There is just too much dirt to look up against NEWT to twist and turn they shoiuld not have to make stuff up that stuff last Thursday, which was pure evil.

Romney has him upset now with MONEY POWER, and I don’t see how people can support that.

I used to like ROMNEY (no way now), and this is pure take down politics.

I mean, to spend 16 million to win one state?

THEY are really afraid of Newty, and I now hope he prevails, no mattrer the clips and lies.

I think it’s as simple as this; Glenn doesn’t think Newt can beat Obama, so he is trying to destroy Newt.

He even calls Newt “Plump”. That’s a but mean spirited.  His accuasations at those supporting Newt is becoming blatant and yes-ronic. I feel terrible my family paid sooo much to travel to see him in both Seattle and Washington DC being an unemployed American. We need a candidate that can beat Obama. Please just let people vote and stop the daily attacks. Glenn you state anyone in the Tea Party that likes Newt as s as well as teasing your callers as people who “just” don’t understand. He states in one of his clips he has to explain to his casual fans why we don’t understand why he has this view. Glenn you can have a viewpoint others can have another view. Your daily rants are suspect. Gee, I just heard Mrs. Obama say we just dont understand her husband.  A progressive as he calls Newt isn’t something we all agree with.  

Thanks!  I’m glad you like it.

It’s as simple as this; Glenn doesn’t believe that newt can beat Obama, so he is trying to destroy Newt.

I read it too. It is great!

Glenn, would you really want another “O”,???,

What gives Glenn is that you are wrong on Newt, who is NOT a Progressive, and wrong on Rick, who, while a nice man, is most assuredly a Republican Progressive who believes whole heartedly in Conservative Big Government.

and he the only guy to win then why is Ron freaken Paul polling alot better aganist Obama then Newt and i think Paul nuts. good gref people.

Why?  Rightly or wronly maybe they see Newt as the best way to defeat obama.  

Something wrong has truly happened to Glenn Beck, he is NOT the guy we admired and liked when he was on Fox…Shame on you Glenn

Hi David,
Well, kinabru didn’t seem to come up with his statements in context, did he. Because he can’t. It is such a shame that these people buy into the lies about Gingrich.

Newt said he was a progressive himself. How do you dispute that?

Where is the story about Rick’s wife sueing for phyician neglect for more than the limits he now supports? Must have missed that one Glenn.

Thanks.  I’ve listened to Glenn for a looooooooooong time, and I’m dismayed at what’s going on here.

Media Matters uses Glenn’s own words to prove he’s a
racist, bigot, homophone, antisemite.  How do you dispute that?

The fix is in, based on hatred for Romney. Believe it or not but the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) wants Gingrich and not Santorum.  Gngrich will be easier to control.  The RCC hates the Mormons, they always have.  If Romney gets to be president and salves the financial mess we are in.  He will be President for 8 years.  The RCC does not want this.  They want the demise of America.

Please show me that IN CONTEXT, because his actual RECORD and his 21st Century Contract With America, and his books and DVD’s all say “Conservative”.

I”m done with Glenn Beck!   I wouldn’t miss him when he was on FOX and then tried the GBTV.  I guess we are seeing the real Glenn Beck now, eh?

Because it’s Media Matters who’s sole purpose in life is to try to discredit Glenn.

Give me a break on the Mormon hate.  That’s a ridiculous alinskyite charge that is completely invalid.  Romney is a leftist with a dismal record on conservatism by all accounts…THAT is why nobody wants him.  It has nothing to do with his faith. 

Also, your conspiracy theories are just a little nutters.

Looks like Glenn’s sole purpose is to discredit Newt.  How does that make Glenn right and Media Matters wrong?

Romney completely represents the old guard republican party. He is Obamalite. At this stage it is not about Newt beating Obama… it is about Romney not getting what the government/media complex wants, and that is the nomination for the Republican party. Choosing Romney is asking for impotence and a one term republican. Newt was instrumental in creating the contract with America and delivering on it. I have no reason to believe he will not deliver on the promises he has made thus far. For me… it is first no Romney. From there I think we should worry about Obama. 

The Self Destruction of Glenn Beck

http://theamericanista.tumblr.com/post/16685269478/the-self-destruction-of-glenn-beck

I went and looked it up. It is puzzling. But he said “progressive tradition of reform” I didn’t see him say  ”I’m a progressive”. I have heard him say over and over that he is a conservative and his record (aside from a couple of slips) is STRONGLY conservative.

The contract with America is clearly stated and I agree with it. Romney has flopped around on abortion and healthcare and if he flops on healthcare after he is elected we will really be in trouble. Why is Beck so closed mouth on Romneys Abortion and healthcare flip flops?

TRY – RON PAUL —   GET REAL

Yep, try the Neville Chamberlain of the 21st century.

I’m actually hoping for a Gingrich/Rand Paul ticket.

I never thought I’d see the day where Glenn and liberals are no different in my eyes. Because they are both being just as dangerous and intellectually dishonest when it comes to their trying to destroy a conservative candidate.

You don’t actually listen to the show do you? Glenn has played many examples of Newt saying he is a progressive. Newt called himself a “Theodore Roosevelt La Follette Progressive tradition” and while both of them were Republicans, they were not exactly Conservative. Glenn is a Libertarian and believes government should be small. Progressives live for expansion of government to “improve” the lives of the people by controlling how they behave. All I needed to see from Newt was his failure to adhere to the contract with America and see him touting Global Warming with Nancy Pelosi when global warming was in fashion to understand how he operates. If you believe that Teddy Roosevelt was a great President that did great things for America, go ahead and vote for Newt.

I must need a latte. I  read this article again and now  if we support Newt our character is in question?
WOW

Romney completely represents the old guard?  What have you been smoking?  Gotta love the Newt supporters how they spin things to support Newt.   Newt has been in Washington for 30 years, he was a Republican Rockefeller, he is the old guard. Have you seen Newt’s negatives?  there is no way he can win the general.  Nominating Newt is not about 1 term because Newt won’t make it, is about losing so big against Obama in the general that Republicans nationwide will lose seats……..Newt is a cancer with a BIG EGO he says one thing and does another, have 1 good idea and then has 3 bad ideas…..most republicans that have worked with him dont support him and that says a lot.   Newt is the reason we lost in 1996 in the general and his own party kicked him out in 1998…..facts are facts but try telling that to the Newt supporters…..just brain dead people!

Most republicans like who Mike?  Give me names.  And that will have to be alot of names if it’s going to be most.

So show them to me, or are you just regurgitating the attack lines?

Where are your facts?  Right now all you’re handing out is rhetoric. 

 I am in Florida and was able to cast my ballot in absentee a couple of days ago and I voted Santorum.  I had to vote with my heart and my morals and what is best for the country no matter what everyone else is saying.  I can sleep with a peaceful conscience. no matter what the final outcome will be.

the list is long…….look it up.

Uh Huh…  Just as I thought.

Maybe you could give me a link, since you’ve obviously seen this oh-so-long and completely valid list…  right?

It does not matter who wins the central bankers control the office of the president and there objective is to destroy this country by any means they can.  Thanks to the counsil of foreign relations, trilateral commision, the patriot act  and other organizations at their disposal.

Not saying that Levin is wrong. Listen to him every night as well. Just saying that you take everything into account and there are some actions that Newt has taken that don’t add up to being a Conservative. What he did with the contract for America was great, but it didn’t last very long did it. Did he deserve to be run out of Congress, I don’t think so, Mark has proven that point to me as well. I just don’t look at him as the most conservative guy on the stage. I believe that Newt will bend to the whims of the pressure he will receive from the mainstream press instead of standing strong and making the changes we need. I think his ideas for tax reform are great, and I think that he wants to be the President we need, I just don’t think he can be. I don’t care how great a debater he is, he is not the cult of personality that Obama is and has enough baggage for the press to tear him down worse than you believe Glenn is. If you think this is unfair, what do you think you will see in the general election?

Did you ever think that maybe because he is the least dirty. Newt has come out and throws dirt in every direction and then says “Look at Mitt he has more money than me, he is pro abortion, (Liar) he is pro gun control (Liar) and then goes on from there. How can anyone with a mind vote for Dough Boy (Newt)?

So again, why is Rick now supporting a top on lawsuits for physicians when his wife sued for more than the limits he is now imposing? My husband is a physician at a christian hospital so I am focused on this. I am very glad you can sleep with no
worries but just where is Rick going to get the money to win this election. Can he really beat Obamas billion and smooth arguments. I am just not sure it is that simple.

Right there with ya Glenn! I don’t get it either

DavidG: you’re joking, right?  Most people on here are too young to remember the disaster that was/is Newt Gingrich.  His position was whatever was opposed to that of the president.  He’s conservative when the policies coming down are liberal and liberal when they were conservative.  He’s a narcissist of the worst sort.  He shows it in the disgusting way he treated his wives and his recent anti capitalism attacks on Romney.  In some sense, your quoted statement is correct since Santorum spent most of his service in the Senate and Romney was never in congress.  Ron Paul is far better than Newt and, in my humble opinion, has done
more to further conservative ideals than Progressive Gingrich.  Newt is the liberal choice for the nomination because they know they can beat him.  That’s why the media has done more negative pieces on Romney (by far).  http://www.cmpa.com/media_room_press_1_18_12.html  Romney’s got the best shot, so they puff up Newt who has no chance in a general election and trash Romney.  Newt is and has always been a progressive–the evidence is overwhelming.  Newt has been shown to have told the most lies so far in the contest (again, by far).  When he gets “fact checked” the red ink is sickening.  It seems to me that the real reason the South doesn’t support Romney is that he’s a Mormon–the rest of the reasons quoted don’t hold water.  They’re looking for a way to make their actual objection to his faith seem reasonable and not based on ignorant prejudice so they jump on the useful idiot bandwagon of Newt Gingrich (and the liberal media).  We have plenty of conservatives elsewhere in the country, we just don’t associate being conservative with being a religious bigot.  Fine, so you don’t like Romney?  Santorum is the better choice anyway and is a lot more electable in the general election.   You should look there instead of the liar chameleon (Newt)

Trish,  It is very comforting to read a post on one of these blogs that in coherent and intelligent.  Remember though, Beck is a business man and some day in the future he may be remembered as one of the greatest entrepreneurer of our times.  Look how far Glenn as come in the past four years.  Glenn is clovering his bases. If Newt gets the nomination, defeats Obama and is a great president I am sure that Beck will have soound clips that support his prophecy.  Likewise, if the opposite occurs there will be material for that as well.  One must take all that is said on radio ( both coservative and progressive)  and place that in the mouth swrirl it around and spit it out. The little bit of taste that is left is the only part that is worth swallowing anyways.

Romney is not a free market capitalist at all.  While Newt has been speaking out against the Fed for the past year and wants to reign it in, Romney wants to keep it intact.  As you know the Fed distorts the markets, so no market is free market with this central bank dictating money supply, interest rates, and regulations.

Also, Romney and Bain made their money mainly from tax loopholes and governemnt subsidies – that is also anti-capitalist.  Certainly, Goldman Sachs knows Romney would never change anything, hence are funding his camaign.

oh my god another blind newt supporter:

Bob Dole
Joe ScarboroughJohn MccainTom DelayDick ArmeySusan Molinarithat’s just a start of a long list of republicans who have worked with newt in congress and wont support him. Pat Buchanan said that the Reagan administration didn’t like newt and saw him as an opportunist politician and Pat Buchanan served directly under Reagan and other who served under Reagan directly said the same thing……time to take off your blinders.

Careful invoking some “stress the some” of those names. They aren’t exactly conservatives either.

Bob Dole – RINO
McCain – RINO
Delay – Convicted Felon
Armey – RINO
Molina – RINO
Buchanan – MSNBC (need I say more?)

Four RINOs, and MSNBC pundit, and a convicted Felon don’t really add up to most there Mike.

LOL…and you’re telling me I have on blinders.  Wow.

I didn’t mean to infer that I sleep without worry in general, just that when it all explodes in our faces, I will be able to sleep knowing I did the right thing.  I understand what you are saying and your point of view. No, he doesn’t have the money to win this race, unfortunately.

Now we are blind too. I am typing with no assistance. Please don’t be mean.

Innocentbystander you are right on.

Romney drew first blood in New Hampshire.  Newt wanted a clean campaign without the dirt and smears.  Was he not supposed to defend himself at all?  Who are you people?  “Dough Boy”?  How moronic to call people names.  Newt is very smart, and I would venture to guess, he’s a lot smarter than you. 

Wikipedia says:

Abortion:  Romney declined to sign a pro-life pledge for 2012 presidential candidates sponsored by the Susan B. Anthony List by which signers pledge to push legislation to end all taxpayer funding of abortion and to sign a law to “protect unborn children who are capable of feeling pain from abortion.” The pledge also commits signers to nominate judges and appoint executive branch officials who are pro-life. Romney’s spokeswoman said the pledge could have “unforeseen consequences” and that Romney could not “in good conscience sign it.”

When he supported the Brady Bill in 1994, Romney said, “That’s not going to make me the hero of the NRA. I don’t line up with the NRA.”[Just before declaring his candidacy for the 2008 Republican nomination for president, Romney joined the National Rifle Association (NRA).   In 2005, Romney declared the 31st anniversary of the Gun Owners’ Action League “Right to Bear Arms Day”.”

Mitt goes with the flow.  He’s a huge hypocrite with lots of money to spread lies.  Please get the facts before you post your comments, please.

Suggesting we are not doing the right thing. Ok! No one can know a mans heart but themselves.

The Republican Hierarchy, Ann Coulter (who thinks Chris Christie is a conservaitve – clearly out of her mind…) and Fox News want the voters to go with Mitt.  It will be more of the same and more of the same.  They like it like that.  I don’t.  I will vote for Newt, who is a “Junkyard Dog” who won’t give up!

The Republican Hierarchy, Ann Coulter, Fox News who have claimed to be “conservative” are not.  Ann Coulter has supported Chris Christie, who in turn supports Mitt Romney.  Chris Christy appointed a Muslim Judge this past summer to the Superior Court in NJ.  Chris Christy appointed an openly gay black man to the superior court in the past few weeks.  Is this a new type of conservativsm that looks a lot like the left, or am I just imaging things here/  You tell me.

Newt is the only one who can beat Obama!

everybody that is against Newt is a RINO except Newt…….LMAO!!!! is that your argument?    Nevermind Newt has been for federal mandates on health care for 30 years until now,  that he is for global warming like Pelosi and Cap-and-Trade……but that’s not a RINO?  LMAO!!!

Yeah stay off the crack!

The MSM are minimizing Santorum in the media so as people don’t know or hear him as much , the MSM wants Romney and the people want anybody BUT Romney and so the only name we are hearing besides Romney is Gingrich ,  I like Santorum as a conservative much more than Romney AND Gingrich but his candidaccy is played down just as my first choice of RON PAUL is being minimized by claiming he is too radical . In my own opinion we NEED a radical to counteract the radical policies and executive orders passed by the most radical president in my 70 years of life , our current phoney in chief . 

Newt is the only one who can beat Obama?????  bhaaaaaa!!!!!   not even Newt believes that anymore…….crack is a powerful drug.

Sad part of these post sites is NEWT is always against ALL the others.

You got Genn                 and HIS puke.
you got GEnny -cullties, and thier spew
YOU got SH$tt              and HIS 16 million in lies
You got the list of re-pubes ,and all the lies made up on the same day last Thursday to destroy
McCain (lost to OBAMA), Dole (lost to Clinton), GW Bush (lost to Clinton), etc
Rick fans, saying he is the only choice
Paul-bots, saying he is the only one

THEN you got Newts Edorsments -SORT of Pailin (SMEARED) by MSM
                                                  CAIN (DESTROYED BY MSM and ?)

Then you have RUSH, LEVIN and SEAN saying this is Mitt trying to take out NEWT with lies and money,

Who do I believe can right the ship? Well just listen to McCain in 2008 and now, and you will get the truth.

I think Genny has gone bonkers with his Progressive thoeries, and I have posted on the 1-10 level  therries, but no one believes me. WE ALL believe in PROGRESS,

To Beckster Abraham Lincoln was a PROGRESSIVE,  (because he believed in Transcontenental Railroad, and did things not allowed in our constitiution ETC to SAVE OUR COUNTRY !!!!

I accidently “Liked” your post, thinking I was hitting reply. 

You are so wrong about Newt.  Look at the record of Fox News, Ann Coulter who is in love wtih Chris Christy, who endorses Mitt Romney.    Chris Christy appointed a Superior court judge in New Jersey – a Muslim just this past summer.  He recently appointed an openly gay black judge to the superior court as well.  What type of conservatism is this?  They are not conservative, it’s just a label they plucked out of the air to get votes. 

The Republican Hierarchy has a lot to do with this trashing of Newt.  He ruffles feathers!  So What?  That’s what I want!  Ruffled feathers.  Didn’t like Newt?  Who cares?  I know I don’t care if you like him or not.  The republican hierarchy has been in charge for way too long and I intend to vote for Newt.  In defiance!

WRONG…check your history.  You are just an uneducated little repeat-o-matic, aren’t you?

I will concede that the Pelosi thing was unwise, but when I compare that with Mitt Romney as the FIRST GOVERNOR TO ATTEMPT TO INSTITUTE INTERSTATE CAP AND TRADE LEGISTLATION (that’s real policy, not just a stupid commercial) it pails in comparison.

If all the RINOs are against Newt, that should tell you something…but I suspect you won’t connect the dots.

Nominating Newt for the GOP is like nominating Al Sharpton for president for the democrats…..2 sure landslide defeats

Dave & Trish,

Let’s be real. Netiher Newt, Mitt or Rick are perfect conservatives.  But since you ask, let’s look at Newt’s voting record:

- Nelson Rockefeller over Barry Goldwater? Not good, not conservative.
- 1979 vote to create the Department of Education? Not good, not conservative.
- 1980 adulterous affair and divorce? Not good not conservative.
- 1987 co-sponsor of Fairness Doctrine? Not good, not conservative?
- 1994 leader of Republican take over of congress?  Outstanding, conservative.
- 1994 Contract with America? Outstanding, wonderful, thank you Newt.
- 1994 A grade from Gun Owners of America? Good. 
- 1996 Welfare Reform? Good job, largely conservative.
- 1996 C- grade from Gun Owners of America?  Not so good.
- 1997 Guilty of ethics violations?  Not good, and I hope that is not conservative.
- 1993-2000 Adulterous affair #2 (at least that we know of), & 2nd divorce?  Not good, and certainly not conservative, and definately not a Family Values Conservative.  He probably needsto concede that one to Santorum and Romney.
- Sitting on the counch with Pelosi to “fight global warming”? Not conservative.
- Supported Cap and Trade legislation?  Not good, not conservative.
- Playing the Class Warfare card (even if it is against Romney)? Not conservative, downright socialist.

Ahhh yes.  Marginalization.  Nice alinsky tactic.  That’s a great tool for someone who can’t defend his own argument. Did Glenn teach you that?

newt is a rino a  progressive one…..plus with a big ego which makes it worse.

Evidence?

Then help the Democrats nominate Al Sharpton.

Again.  Evidence?

The establishment doesn’t like Romney???!!! Really Glenn? Who was it that was endorsed by John McCain and Bob Dole along with many other solid establishment politicians? I see the establishment defending Romney every day on Fox News and ripping Newt Gingrich. And now, none other than George Soros just said the other day that he’s not worried about Romney because Romney and Obama are exactly the same. It couldn’t be much worse unless Satan himself endorsed Mitt Romney. He also said that only conservative extremists like Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum are different than Obama. Let’s see you explain or spin your way out of this one Glenn. It’s a little weird that Art Laffer, Robert McFarlane, Michael Reagan, many of the Tea Party supporters, Rick Perry, Herman Cain, Thomas Sowell, and now Sarah Palin are all backing Gingrich. Are these people supporting Newt Gingrich all just stupid or what? I’m usually with Glenn on most things, but not on this one. I don’t know how he seems to be so blind to reality. What is it exactly that Mitt Romney has done for the conservative movement? At least Newt has balanced the budget, reformed welfare, has a solid record of suppporting lower taxes, etc. and, yes, he was a huge player in the Reagan revolution in the 80s says Art Laffer, Robert McFarlane, and Ed Rollins — all former Reagan administration officials. And, yes, Newt has praised progressive presidents, but so did Reagan. Reagan praised FDR many times, so I guess by your definition, Reagan was also a progressive.

You can take a horse to the water, but you can’t make him drink Trish good luck in supporting newt.

everybody is the establishment if you dont support newt…..lol

Does anyone really believe that Obama could do what he is doing without the full support of the House ans Senate? We aren’t fighting just Obama, we are fighting Washington but too many of us really believe “my” guy is honest and is looking out for me. Didn’t he shake your hand and tell you to call his office anytime? 

Sad part of these post sites is NEWT is always against ALL the others.

You got Genn                 and HIS puke.
you got GEnny -cullties, and thier spew
YOU got SH$tt              and HIS 16 million in lies
You got the list of re-pubes ,and all the lies made up on the same day last Thursday to destroy
McCain (lost to OBAMA), Dole (lost to Clinton), GW Bush (lost to Clinton), etc
Rick fans, saying he is the only choice
Paul-bots, saying he is the only one

THEN you got Newts Edorsments -SORT of Pailin (SMEARED) by MSM
                                                  CAIN (DESTROYED BY MSM and ?)

Then you have RUSH, LEVIN and SEAN saying this is Mitt trying to take out NEWT with lies and money,

Who do I believe can right the ship? Well just listen to McCain in 2008 and now, and you will get the truth.

I think Genny has gone bonkers with his Progressive thoeries, and I have posted on the 1-10 level  therries, but no one believes me. WE ALL believe in PROGRESS,

To Beckster Abraham Lincoln was a PROGRESSIVE,  (because he believed in Transcontenental Railroad, and did things not allowed in our constitiution ETC to SAVE OUR COUNTRY !!!!

Mike…you haven’t provided an ounce of decent support.  Your arguments are completely impotent because you haven’t done your own research and you are relying on the half-truth’s Glenn feeds you.  I’m not interested in having an insult war with you, but I’m not going to let you get away with repeating lies and misinformation without asking you to support it.  If that threatens you, I’m sorry, but do a little research, and you’ll find that Glenn isn’t telling the whole story.

Newt did all that by himself???? amazing!!!!  …by the way the budget never got balanced…..bring me another lie………how was Newt a huge player in the regan revolution in the 80′s?    another lie……democrats were the majority in congress during the reagan years, newt HAD NO leadership role in the minoroty……the people in the Reagan administration thought of newt as a opportunist  politician…….yeah keep drinking that kool aid pal……newt is nothing more than a 30 year high paid lobbyists.

Let’s be real. Netiher Newt, Mitt or Rick are perfect conservatives.  But since you ask, let’s look at Newt’s voting record:

- Nelson Rockefeller over Barry Goldwater? Not good, not conservative.
- 1979 vote to create the Department of Education? Not good, not conservative.
- 1980 adulterous affair and divorce? Not good not conservative.
- 1987 co-sponsor of Fairness Doctrine? Not good, not conservative?
- 1994 leader of Republican take over of congress?  Outstanding, conservative.
- 1994 Contract with America? Outstanding, wonderful, thank you Newt.
- 1994 A grade from Gun Owners of America? Good. 
- 1996 Welfare Reform? Good job, largely conservative.
- 1996 C- grade from Gun Owners of America?  Not so good.
- 1997 Guilty of ethics violations?  Not good, and I hope that is not conservative.
- 1993-2000 Adulterous affair #2 (at least that we know of), & 2nd divorce?  Not good, and certainly not conservative, and definately not a Family Values Conservative.  He probably needsto concede that one to Santorum and Romney.

Hey Pal, Levin was THERE !!!!

What people Mike.  Give me names.  If you can’t provide real tangible examples, you’re just peddling garbage.

The TRUTH about Newt’s Ethics Charges …

84 (politically motivated) ethics charges were filed against Newt (by the Democrats) when he was Speaker of the House regarding the use of tax exempt funds for a college course he taught titled “Renewing American Civilization.” 

Eighty-three of the eighty-four charges were found to be WITHOUT MERIT and DROPPED.

The remaining charge had to do with contradictory documents prepared by Newt’s lawyer supplied during the course of the investigation.  Newt took responsibility for the error and agreed to reimburse the committee the cost of the investigation into that discrepancy. (IT WAS NOT A FINE!)

In 1999, after a 3 ½ year investigation, the Internal Revenue Service (under President Bill Clinton, nonetheless) concluded that Gingrich did not violate any tax laws, leading renowned CNN Investigative reporter Brooks Jackson to remark on air “it turns out [Gingrich] was right and those who accused him of tax fraud were wrong”.

Newt was cleared of ALL ethics charges!

ooooouuuuu, the sittting on the couch card again !!!

How did NEWT  had a big role player in the Reagan years?????…….Democrats were in control of congress during the 80′s…Newt had NO leadership role in the minority.   Newt wasn’t part of the Reagan administration…….he mentions too much Reagan and takes credit for things he had no part of….what a joke.

SAXMAN, where did you get all that garbage?

I mean that makes you look like a nut!

As to Newt’s “adulterous affair”. He found Christ and repented. Is loved and supported by his family. That IS conservative!

good for him….lol

There has only been one true conservative in this race, one with a very long voting record of strict adherence to the Constitution.  His initials (RP).  His actions are truly by definition ‘conservative’.  The rest are faking it and a sizeable number of us know it.  Follow the money gang:  most of the RP’ers in the crowd are forking over their livelihoods, not big biz, not big government-backed monopolies.  What more evidence do you need?

It is a legit concern, but it can’t be taken in a vaccuum.  Newt isn’t perfect and we can’t pretend that he is, but he’s a FAR sight better than Romney, and his record is one that’s worth serious consideration.

NEWT did a lot of good, period. FACT

HE was there when Reagan was there support him, Period. FACT

You guys read too much fantasy articles and watch Romney comercials.

Are you in Florida?

It is quite obvious that the commentors here are listening to the media pundits.
Even Fox news which is usually having representatives from both political
parties on their shows, is giving a sided bent to Newt Gingrich.  Probably
because Sarah Palin is on their payroll.  I have lost all respect for her.
She obviously has not done her homework or she would know that Newt
is unelectable.  Newt is unelectable because of all of the positions he has
taken in the past.  He help destroy America back then with his votes for
Nafta, (free trade not fair trade) he helped to put through the Education
Association, (today many children are failing in school)  he is for Cap and
Trade which is the dumbest thing I ever heard of.
Voting for Newt so Obama doesn’t win is the stupidist thing I ever heard of.
I am going to vote for someone; not against someone.
Newt cannot win.  He has to much baggage.  And by the time the
democrats get done with him, his entire life will be in tatters and he will
be hated by all of you who would vote for him because he didn’t win.
You all will only have yourselves to blame and when you look at your
children remember it will be you who have done this to them.  You and
your children each owe $48,000. to the Federal Government. So for a
family of 4, that is $196,000.00 .   What a lack of thinking in the camp
for Newt Gingrinch.  He helped you get to this point.

May God Bless You and give you all guidance.

how is newt better than Romney?    in understanding the private sector and free markets?…..in family values?……..please….lol

Newt may be “plump”, but he is NOT “progressive”! Nothing will sway me from this truth!

DID I EVER CLAIM NEWT WAS PERFECT?

Why???  THEY LEARNED A LESSON IN 2008!!!
We moved to the center in 2008 in an attempt to woe independents and Dems with McCain.  WE LOST.  If me move FARTHER left of McCain with Romney WE WILL LOSE!!!
MARK MY WORDS, ROMNEY AS OUR CANDIDATE MEANS 4 MORE YEARS OF OBAMA!!  FACT!!!

OH. I like Rick Perry too.

SPOT ON!!!!!!!   Palin is the WORST CHAMELEON of them all…..

Have you seen Romney’s record?  Now THAT is unelectable.  Newt may have made some choices that we disagree with from time to time, but he certainly doesn’t have a long drawn out history of it like Romney does.  The judge appointments alone should be enough to disqualify him.

Cap and Trade: Newt did support it, but absolutely opposes “cap and trade” now. As well as any system of taxing carbon emissions. He testified before Congress against it in 2009 and led a grassroots effort while the Chairman of American Solutions to block its passage in the House and Senate. That IS conservative. As to the Couch with Pelosi, he said it was dumb. But he wanted conservatives to be part of the discussion – he never believed that man-made global warming was settled science.

Funny!

Romney is a successful business man, made his millions in the private sector unlike newt who made his millions in government……Romney is a family value man unlike newt…..Romney saves the 2002 olympics from bankruptcy so he knows how to balance budgets and fire people that dont do their jobs…how is newt better than  Romney???   lol

what record????  he only has been governor for 4 years…..Newt has been in washington for 30 years….newt’s baggage is huge!……..most of Romney’s record is in the private sector.

Hooah!!!

The Congressional record.  Newt’s own writings and commercials.  Which of my statements are incorrect?  Have sombody read my arguments to you one by one, then please tell me which ones ar not correct.  But go ahead, insult me if that is the best you can do.

lets compare Rommey’s record of 4 years as governor to Newt’s 30 years in congress…..Newt’s record has a lot more questionable votes and more earmarks.

Romney’s record is in the private sector which the only way newt could attack it its by playing the socialist card.

Romney is Gun Grabber who passed gun control legislation
Romney appointed extremely liberal judges
Romney PIONEERED obamacare
Romney tried to legislate the first interstate cap and trade deal in the US
Romney funded planned parenthood
Romney was for abortion before he was against it
Bain Capitol received a GOVERNMENT BAILOUT under Romney
Romney is currently involved in the redistricting of Allen Wests Congressional District.
Romney voted for Paul Tsongas

Need I go on?

Yes PLEASE do.  PLEASE!

I wonder about George Soros saying Romney is just like Obama (or something like that), made my ears perk up and say: Hey, wait a minute! Soros may want Gingrich because he thinks Obama could beat him and not Romney. Think about it! Soros has a lot at stake to keep Obama in office and not just financially but it would be a big defeat for hedge funds and would lose a HUGE amount of money if Obama gets defeated. OUR GOAL IS TO DEFEAT OBAMA! END OF STORY! 

Newt was for federal mandates for health care  hypocrite!!!!…..and romney care is not a federal mandate…..the state decides…….try again tirsh

Agreed.   Newt made a good point yesterday.  Neither Obama or Romney can run on their ACTUAL RECORDS.

NEWT HAS A RECORD, IT PROVES HE IS A CONSERVATIVE.
Romney has a record, It proves he is a liberal.

For Romney dupes.  LOOK AT WHAT HE DID, NOT WHAT HE SAYS!!!

one more time lets compare newt’s 30 years of voting record and earmarks in congress to Romney’s 4 years as governor…..Newt’s record stinks more……..Rommney’s true record is in the private sector…..try again Trish.

OBOMNEY CARE!!!  INCREASED GUN CONTROL.  INCREASED TAXES.  GOVERNMENT FUNDED ABORTIONS.  REMOVING KOSHER MEALS FROM MEDICAID. 

GREAT RECORD!!!!

Wow…do you really believe that tripe?  Newt disavowed federal mandates when the Heritage Foundation disavowed it. And he wanted a very different program than Romney gave us

Romney still stands by his legislation.  It doesn’t matter if it was on the state level.  He caved when he was given the chance to govern on the state levle and he can’t be trusted on the Federal level.

Romney can’t run on his record, just like Obama.

Newt has an A rating from the NRA for all of his years in congress
Romney signed gun control legislation.

On Gun Control; Newt is a recipient of the National Rifle Association’s Defender of the Second Amendment Award.  His legislative voting record was consistently scored by the NRA as either an A or A+ all 20 years that he served in Congress.  Also, Newt is the only candidate in the race who has spoken out about the threat to the second amendment from the United Nations (and other global-governance proponents)

that IS conservative!

romney gave you??? are you a MASS resident?     because 3 to 1 they support Romney care for them…….try again Trish

Netw opposes abortion
Romeny funded planned parenthood

PROOF PLEAS.  Oh yeah you can’t prove that, BECAUSE IT IS A LIE.
http://www.freedomworks.org/blog/thale/the-issue-with-romney-is-the-issues

Newt presided over welfare reform
Romney presided over massive government handouts

Newt opposed tax increases
Romney Raised taxes

newt’s flip flops:
http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2011/11/newt-gingrich-flip-flops.html

(Thanks to “PolitiJim”)
Newt Gingrich as GA Congressman and Speaker of the House:•Lifetime American Conservative Union rating of 90% (most recent year was for 1998 at 100%)* ** •He had a Democrat controlled Congress up until 1994, a Democrat President and Senate from 1992 until 1998 •Helped Reagan pass biggest tax cut in 50 years as Minority Whip, called out George Bush on breaking his promise and led (as a legislator) a Democrat President to do the same. •Art Laffer confirms Gingrich helped on a team that designed “Supply Side Economics.” •Supported/Championed policies that created 11 Million jobs. •National Taxpayers Union’s Annual Scorecard on reduced spending and taxes gave Gingrich an “A”, for his last four years in office, ranking him #1, #4, #2 and #11 and as one of the most conservative members in Congress. •Led a Balanced Budget initiative with a Democrat President. AS A SPEAKER not an Executive Branch Leader and not in control of the Senate or Executive Branch.  He balanced the budget 4 times creating the first SURPLUS in decades. •$400 billion in debt was paid off during time as Speaker, although Gingrich agreed with Reagan on deal that ended up running deficits until 1988. •Fought and defeated HillaryCare both in strategy, as well as political and legislative maneuvering. •On third try got a Democratic President and Senate to initiate Welfare Reform that put 60% of recipients to work. •Gingrich’s pro-life voting record is 98.6%, 70 out of 71 votes. •Brought two partial birth abortion bills to Clinton that served as the model for what was passed under George W. Bush. •He helped Reagan’s initiative to eliminate 12 of 94 programs and cut budgets of many others like the SBA more than 50%. •He identified, recruited, campaigned for and helped organize over the biggest minority opposition swing getting 367 Congressional candidates to sign the Contract With America.  This resulted in a NET GOP pickup of 52 seats in the House, 8 in the Senate and 11 Governorships. •Multiple conservatives congressmen got their political start including: Jon Kyl Mike DeWine Jim Inhofe Fred Thompson Bill Frist Rick Santorum
•Contract With America – (1995 Description): “…represented the culmination of 30 years of creative conservative thinking dealing with the basic social and economic problems of modern America. The ideas provided the background for the widest range of legislative initiatives, certainly since the 1930s, and possibly at any time in American political history.” 

Romney cut taxes in Mass….try again Trish…..lol

Newt fought against Hillary care
Romney’s aids advised the Obama administration on how to write Obama care.

OBOMNEY CARE!!!!

RAISED TAXES 300 MILLION.   Just because you say something enough doesn’t make it true.

newt’s flip flops:
http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2...

You offer no substance.  I’ve given you several examples.  Where are yours?

I’ve yet to see one statemeny from you that was correct, snd SHE’s THE LIAR.
GET REAL, YOUR LOVE FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT HAS BLINDED YOU.
TRY AGAIN!!!

When Newt voted for the creation of the Department of Education, it was only structured to provide research and collect data. Unfortunately, the bureaucracy ballooned, so while Speaker, Newt aggressively campaigned to return the Department back to its intended role and return education to the states.

newt is the establishment he has been in washington for 30 years……clueless…..lmao!!!!

Romney said that if under aged girls wanted an abortion they could get one with their parents permission. If their parents refused, the girl could take it to the courts.

No Romney. No way.

Newt has been in washington for 30 years…..he has made his millions as a washington insider but he is the outsider now????  bhaaaaaaa!!!!!   lmao!!!!  keep drinking that kool aid.

Unfortunately with Fox news throwing full weight behind Romney there are dupes like this clown coming out of the woodwork who don’t think for themselves and take everything that is sold to them.

Romney said that if under aged girls wanted an abortion they could get
one with their parents permission. If their parents refused, the girl
could take it to the courts.

No Romney. No way.

Except throughout his time in washington, he went after the establishment (even his own party if he thought they were wrong). Let that soak into your head.

clowns like you who support newt because he is the outsider????? lmao!

You are a very unworthy opponent Mike.  I think we’ve more than established that you have no clue what you are talking about and unless you provide some substance for your arguments, I’m just going to move on.  You are very weak minded without any information or facts.

you are a newt supporter and telling me i have no clue?????  BHAAAAAA!!!!!!  LMAO!!!!   Trish stop it you are killing me…..lol

You may not like it but RON PAUL is the answer.

Who cares who Herman Cain endorses, giving Herman air time is a total waste of air time. Newt is a “Professional Politician” and his insane moon comments ended any chance that he might have had to be nominated.  The man is clearly out of his mind and he needs to pack his tent along with Ron paul.  All that they are doing is sucking votes from an erectable Republican candidate.  

All I know is I am really, really tired of the Newt bashing by Glenn.  This is America and people can vote for whomever they want.  The more Glenn bashes and carries on, the more I lean toward Newt.  I have pretty much stopped listening to the radio show, and I am about to cancel my GBTV if he doesn’t knock it off.

Yes he is.

Newt will bring food stamps to his moon colony.

Romney 2012

Just kidding.

Not only that, but Newt is not afraid to slam their -ss.  Frankly, people are also tireed of pols who measure all their words and try to be PC.  Romney is progressive and is getting so-called conservative endorsements, so why does Glenn not get his shorts all tied in a knot over that?  Besides Glenn mockingly tossed his support for Newt did he not. LOL

I feel the same way. And I was a huge Glenn fan. He’s losing me (and I’m guessing a lot of conservative listeners).

Thanks Trish!  Great article and it is exactly how I feel.

No, you are doing what is right to you and for you, same as I feel I am doing.  Not arguing one bit, just commenting.  Whatever God has in his plan is what is going to happen anyway.  For good or bad from our point of view.

Hello??? What has selecting a gay or a Muslim got to do with anything!!? Are we Conservatives not supposed to be far more compassionate than Libs? Whatever happened to Judeo-Christian ethics? Obviously you missed that part of Conservatism. Jeez, Louise –if Newt can ask for and receive “forgiveness” for his adulterrous flings, I would think you could support what Christie did…or have you adopted the Liberal quality of hypocrisy yourself…

He’s just a troll.  I’ve given him facts and he’s just trolling.  He wants to work people up.

If he can’t provide anything of substance, there’s no point int talking to him. 

He’s already been defeated at this point.  So if he wants to troll, who cares?

You are right, Newt says outragious things from day to day, that is why his fellow republicans wanted him out as speaker.  Newt should step out, he wants Santorum out so that he has a better chance, it is always about Newt.

I think Glenn is miffed at why he does not seem to be a “King maker”.  Glenn has to remember that Santorum lost his home state.  That speaks volumes that he should hear and understand.  I’m miffed he does not understand that.  But if I had no choice, I could vote for Santorum.

Paul is a whole lot better than Newt.

Prove your statement—that isn’t true, it is bad to come to this forum and balantly lie.

I am concerned about Santorum’s stand on gun control!  Would someone clear that up for me? I just want someone to get the nomination who is capable of beating Obama, so I am one of those Americans Glenn is talking about, I guess. I believe so strongly that given another 4 years Obama might be able to destroy life as we know it! I have never been this apprehensive every single day of what this man might be able to do. He doesn’t seem to listen to congress. He has either 42 or 45 czars at the moment. They don’t have to answer to anyone but Obama. I think he was rooting for the Islamic Muslim Brotherhood during the takeover of Egypt. Now that they are in charge, he wants to give more aid to their military. I remember when Obama said, that if things get really bad, I will stand with the muslims. I don’t understand why Glenn doesn’t call the president out on the eligibility issue. The Constitution says that a person has to be a “natural born” citizen to be eligible to hold the highest office in our country. The Supreme Court in 1875 defined “natural born” to mean a citizen who is born to parents both of whom have to be citizens of the United States. I thought it was well documented that Obama’s father was never a citizen of the United States of America!!! What gives with Glenn on this issue?

It’s ironic Glenn’s next big rally is called Restoring Love.  If he keeps up his Newt rants no one is going to show up, wouldn’t that be something?

I have to say it is such a cheesy, sappy name.

Newt was for federal healthcare for 20 years, he has it on record that he is for mandated healtcare Ins. for all of the country, he said it on Meet the Press, May of 2011, so why aren”t you turthful about Newt and his healthcare stance.

Newt passed the drug payment in Medicare which costs a tremendous amout of money, Newt is big government.

Newt voted for partial birth abortion, M. Bachmann said it in one of the debates, Newt did not counter it.  Romney had a 85% dem. congress, he vetoed a lot of the healthcare but the Dem. Legislature overrode him.  You are not honest.

because they don’t want a boring guy like romney who believes God is from the planet Kobol and Christ & satan are brothers and thinks that wives have zero rights.

I can’t help but think that Glenn is supporting Romney because they are both mormons!  This is the first time I have seen Glenn come out in support of Santorum. I don’t think he’s right to be attacking Newt this viciously. He should focus on getting Obama out of office. I also don’t think he realizes that he is causing a big divide in the Republican party.That in itself is very dangerous for the outcome we are all hoping for in this election. More than anything, we need a nominee who can beat Obama!!! The media is holding off the slaughter of Romney hoping that he will be the nominee. They are sure they can beat him. If anyone thinks that Romney didn’t win in SC because he’s a mormon, they haven’t seen anything yet. Just wait until the liberals get through attacking Romney on his religion, and I think that SC will look like they gave Romney the easiest ride of the campaign. The liberal media is chomping at the bit to start in on Romney’s religion.

Romney cut taxes 19 times in MA, there are gov. funded abortions in all states.

Obamacare or Rommeycare not much different. One reason I am voting for Newt is all the dirty adds Rommey has run here in Florida. Newt Gingrich will beat Obama..We have a liberal president we don’t need another one. Newt is the conservative. You can believe what Newt says where Rommey will say anything to become the President of the United States.

Glenn has done his fair share of carrying the liberal media’s water in the march to destroy Gingrich. He has to look no further than into a mirror to see why Gingrich is so polarizing — it’s not actually because of Gingrich himself but the perpetuation of the lies about Gingrich.  Why anyone would ever want to run for President in this country is a mystery to me – especially on the right. It seems every right of center radio talk show host has his/her own litmus test that each candidate must pass, and if he/she doesn’t, they crucify him. At least the libs follow Reagan’s 11th commandment. The likes of Beck, Coulter, Ingraham et al (Hannity and Limbaugh have been fairly good on this issue) get the knives out at a moments’ notice to destroy whatever isn’t completely coherent with their own ideologies.  It’s really sad. Go after Palin now, Beck, she’s supporting Gingrich and you mustn’t have that!

Romney appointed judges to civil courts, Newt liked Romneys healthcare plan, he said he would like to have a mandate for all people in the U.S. to buy healthcare ins.., Newt has been for Fed. healthcare for 20 years-you want that dude as President?.  Romney was never for abortions., When the bailouts were being handed out Romney was not with Bain—what the hexx are you talking about, show a link.  You don’t know who Romney voted for, that is private, all kinds of stuff on the internet.

Yeah, I guess it is kind of boring for a guy to be married and faithful to the same wife for over 42 years.  Gingrich is all for womens rights, at least as far as his zipper goes.  Gingrich thinks he is Austin Powers.  Where does God live? Do you know? 

So was M. Savage, Bob Dole, McCain,–Dole and McCain much closer than bigmouth Levin.

The Bible states we are NOT to become part of the worldly.  Clearly, this means we are not here to “tolerate” other religions.  The Bible says that Christ is the ONLY way.  Or did you miss that part? The Bible goes on to say that this will literally tear families apart.  So, to the non-family it will likely be worse.  I will never change my belief in Jesus Christ to conform to the Mitt Romneys and Chris Christies of this world!  They are wrong.

If we are truly Christians wtih a Judeo-Christian background, we are here in turmoil, not to tolerate.  If we tolerate what we know to be wrong, we are hypocrites.  What Chris Christie has done is against all conservative beliefs. You are basing your beliefs on worldly ways.  I will not accept what I know is clearly wrong.  These people ARE NOT conservative.  Mitt Romney, Chris Christie. They are far from conservative in their beliefs and their appointments.  If you can’t see that, then you are blind. 

“..and the blind shall lead the blind and they shall all fall into the ditch.”

Uh, the establishment doesn’t like Mitt Romney???!!! Really Glenn? Is that why John McCain, Bob Dole, Chris Christie and many other establishement politicians are coming out in droves to support Mitt Romney? I know Glenn has endorsed Rick Santorum, but he’s been way soft on Romney. I see the establishement every day on Fox News defending Romney and ripping Newt. I’d also like to hear Glenn expalin why, even though Romney is the so-called “progressive- lite” George Soros just said the other day that he’s not worried about Mitt Romney because he’s almost identical to Obama? Unless Satan himself endorses Mitt Romney, it doesn’t get much worse than that. Soros also said “conservative extremists” Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum would offer a big contrast between Obama.

I’m usually with Glenn on most things, but not this one. I don’t know how he can be so blind to reality when Newt has been endorsed by Thomas Sowell, Todd Palin, Hermain Cain, Rick Perry, tons of Tea Party supporters, Michael Reagan, Art Laffer, and Robert McFarlane and he’s basically been endorsed by Sarah Palin. Are these people backing Newt just ill-informed? How in the world can Glenn explain all of this away? And what exactly has Mitt Romney ever done for the conservative movement? I’m with Mark Levin – Newt has balanced the federal budget, reformed welfare, lowered taxes, fought Hillarycare, etc. – how progressive of him. And, yes, Newt was a major player in the Reagan revolution says Art Laffer and Ed Rollins — both former Reagan administration officials. Newt has praised progressive presidents in 30 second sound bites that Glenn plays over and over, but Reagan also praised FDR, so I guess by Glenn’s logic, Reagan was also progressive. Nancy Reagan herself gave Newt an award in 1995 saying that “Ronnie” handed his torch to Newt. Rush is right, Nancy never would’ve voluntarily handed a foe of Reagan’s an award.

Guess you don’t remember when Newt had his head handed to him on a platter for ‘ETHICS’ violations in the 1990′s. No ONE who cheats on his wife….excuse me WIVES will ever get my vote. If he can’t be trusted to keep sacred promises to who is supposed to be the #1 person in his life (his wife) HOW??? pray tell me can Newt the Narcississt be trusted as POTUS? He CAN’T plain and simple. Newt is nothing more than Clinton with a R behind his name instead of a D.  Although Clinton was getting his knob polished in the White House hallway, Newt was getting his done in the front seat of his car in a parking lot. Despicable…and you want this pervert to be POTUS?  I don’t think so.

I believe the support for gingrich is due to the fact that Millions of us are sick and tired of having our candidates decided for us by the MSM and the party establishment who insist that it’s Romney’s turn so he should win at all costs.  We had Dole, and Mcshame crammed down our throats because it was “Their turn”, remember how well that worked out?  Every time we run a “Moderate” (read Liberal Lite) candidate in the mold of dole, McCain, Bush sr, we have LOST!  But when a candidate  can effectively put across the conservative agenda Like Reagan, and Bush 2 (although the latter turned out less than conserv) we Win.  How hard is THAT to Understand???

Newt resigned because the republicans in the house did not want him, Newt was sleazy in the ethics dept, he backed a lot of his lobbying buds like Dick Armey for one, who is a front for a tea party website called Freedom Works, Armey was/is a lobbyist for DLA Piper, they lobbyed for the Pharmaceutical Industry regarding healthcare–Newt lobbyed for Freddie Mac,a lot of the tea party is for Newt, something stinks.

I don’t agree with shots on Romney’s religion, but that was a cheap, intellectually dishonest shot on Newt.

Oh crap, how do you know Newt found christ, because he said so, who is drinking the koolaid now.  I would rather have a man that doesn’t need to repent bedcause he lives a good life.  Romney 2012

Because it is Newt that is establishment, Romney is not establishment, seems like that is hard for some of you Newties to understand.

We still have a real conservative running.

RON PAUL 2012.

You’re blowing it guys……You’re blowing it.

What gives you the right to call any body “PLUMP”!!!!  In the last couple of months, you are belittling yourself with ill rhetoric! Would your little mormon bishop approve of that…YOU won’t get in to your kingdom…but where you married in the “TEMPLE”., I’m sure you were,and have you gone on your “mission” and have you given the all mighty CHURCH 15%(of course you have + more; you sweet little thing), and how many kids have you populated the mormon kingdom, and baptized in the mormon tradition so all your kindfolk before you  will not be floating out there in NONO land..”of no place to go”…cause they didn’t live the Moron way, but you saved them….come on Glenn,,,,you tell or use to tell people to look it up, don’t take your word for it…Well Mr. Glenn; you didn’t do your homework….on the Mormon Cult.!!!!
Anyway,,, I still don’t understand you slamming Newt…How do YOU like being slammed!!!!!

Both of those guys are media/establishment lackeys. Only a real dunce would think either one isn’t. The only person running that isn’t is Ron Paul.

Being for Newt or Mitt does not make you a conservative. It makes you a lemming.

This may be difficult for everyone to take, but Ron Paul is the only one who is NOT an establishment lackey. He is the only one who can NOT be bought by them.

Ron Paul 2012.

I’m so sick of Ron Paul supporters thinking that the only way to support their guys is to bash the others and their supporters.

Sorry Kinabru, but if you actually listen to the radio, there is a commercial running that plays Romney stating that in a speech.  Try doing a little research yourself before calling someone a liar!

What gives you ask?  OK no one wants to say it for fear of being labeled a bigot, but the reason they are all flocking to Newt is because they can’t deal with Mitt’s Mormonism.   The Mormon question will be bigger in this election than it was in 2008 if Mitt gets the nomination and they all know it.

Personally, I don’t see Mitt’s faith as a problem but an asset.  But then I know it better than most.  I’m a Mormon.  

For the record I’d prefer to see Santorum as the nominee.  Hoping for a miracle.

If Ron Paul gets the nomination he’ll get my vote.

And no one else does that in favor of their guy. The truth hurts…

Ron Paul will get my vote, either way.

What’s obviously hard for you to understand is that while Gingrich had been in congress for 20 years, he was a solid conservative and went after anyone he thought was wrong, including his own party. This is why the “establishment” dislikes him. He was always his own man. And also, with Gingrich we have a successful conservative record to see!

Angry are we?  
And how do you know the size of his Bishop?
So do you hate Glenn for becoming a Mormon?  You think a guy like Glenn Beck didn’t do his homework?  Or do you just think he was brain washed and forced to convert?

The tone of your post is anything but Christian-like.  WWJD?

Solid conservative record? NAFTA is a solid conservative idea? Mandated healthcare is a solid conservative idea? And you wonder why someone would call you dumb.

I like Rick Santorum.  Not sure just who will get my vote tomorrow, though.  

and do explain her chameleon attics since you say they are there. thank you.

There’s a lot of people who feel that way…

Ron Paul would be a good choice. And your conscience will be clear.

Thanks for reinforcing the stereo-typical “Republicans are all racists” label liberals love to crow about…

i believe most Americans just want a presidential candidate who can beat Obama!  He scares the crap out of me, especially last week SOTU address, asking for MORE power in the Executive Branch. People better start waking up, pulling together to get this country on track or we will have lost everything. I’m sick of hearing the canidates smearing one another! I want to know WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO TO SAVE THIS COUNTRY THAT IS IN TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF DEBT, A PRESIDENT DOWNSIZING OUR MILITARY (WHY), A PRESIDENT WHO BELIEVES IN REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH – HIS WHOLE ELECTION STRATEGY IS TO DIVIDE WE THE PEOPLE – SAYING THE MIDDLE CLASS HAS BEEN DONE WRONG BY THE MILLIONAIRES, BILLIONAIRES WHEN ITS HIM WHO HAS DONE THEM WRONG, GIVING MORE ENTITLEMENTS TO MORE PEOPLE WHO TO NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN ARE IN TOUGH TIMES AND THUS THE MIDDLE CLASS HAS BEEN SWEEZED DOWN & NOW DEPENDENT ON THE GOVT TOO PLAYING RIGHT INTO OBAMA’S HAND. I HAVE HAD IT WITH BEING TOLD WHEN, WHERE, HOW I CAN PRAY – THIS COUNTRY IS BASED ON  CHRISTIAN PRINICIPLES NOT MUSLIM & YET WE HAVE ONE IN THE WHITE HOUSE – NOT EVEN MAN ENOUGH TO ADMIT IT & SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY IN THE MIDDLE EAST! WHY HASN’T HE RELEASED ANY OF HIS COLLEGE RECORDS, WHY AREN’T PEOPLE WHO WENT TO SCHOOL WITH HIM SPEAKING OUT, HOW DID HE PAY FOR HIS EDUCATION? HE’S A PUPPET ON A STRING FOR THE SOCIAL JUSTICE, LIBERAL, COMMUNIST MOVEMENT IN THIS COUNRTY! WE MUST STAND UNITED BEHIND WHOEVER IS GOING TO BE THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE. GROW UP, WAKE UP,COME TOGETHER FOR GOD’S SAKE FOR THERE WILL BE A REVOLUTION LIKE NONE OTHER IN THIS COUNTRY AND YOU CAN KISS ALL YOUR RIGHTS GOODBYE.
GOD HELP US!

Vote for Newt G. in defiance of the Rep. hierarchy.  But examine your conscience and ask if he is able to govern the nation better than Mitt Romney. Newt G. votile. Can you or anyone agree to stay on even keel with his governance decisions without calling for his impeachment because of controversial stances 

The only one who can is Ron Paul. What most people do not understand, it takes independents to win, for either side. Independents will not vote for Gingrich or Santorum in enough numbers and they will get no democraps. Romney could get some of the independents and democraps but not enough. Ron Paul could easily get enough independents and even quite a few democraps.

I believe Romney’s money is his establishment.  His views have been all over the place. Just check out his pro abortion u tube, . He said “I will never ever change my mind on being pro abortion”. Right!  Unfortunately, no one else has any money in the republican party to fight Floridia so maybe we are all letting off steam. Even O’ Reilly says that. Now how much did Romney spend? Quess his 48,000 a day income may let him become president. He sure will say anything to win. He lost Florida last time around.  He will win tomorrow, He most likely will lose  Florida to Obama though but I hope not.  I don’t like Romney but anyone is way better than Obama. Thank god most of us agree on that. It’s just question of who can beat Obama, repeal healthcare and hopefully turnaround jobs. You and I have spoken before. Read my piece on the hospitals that my husband works for losing 10 million a month since Obama care. They are a non profit christian hopsital and never turned people down before Obamacare. Now they loose 10 million a month and can’t even get any grants from the govt. I suspect some Newt lovers really like him cause they think he could have beat Obama. I hope Romney can and I sure hope he repeals Obamacare. Romneys people assisted Obama with Information for Obamacare. Obama is going to use that against Romney. 
I would think Beck would want anyone even if he thinks thay are a progressive against
Obama.

I’m 50. I’ve followed Newt for years. I have many of his books and dvds. He’s been a solid consistent conservative (with only a couple slips) and a record that we need to SAVE the Country NOW! I’m a Christian and understand what happens when you find Christ, repent, and you change from within, so I can give Newt a pass for his marital issues because I was a huge “sinner”  before I found Christ. I supported Romney in the last election, but now, I’m actually beginning to despise him. I like Santorum but he has no chance, and Newt shows he can get things done, because he HAS GOT THINGS DONE!

So no, I’m not kidding. 

Newt is not a newt.  He’s a chameleon.  He changes to fit the scene.  But, if he gets the nomination I will vote for him in November simple as that.

I don’t think it is as simple as  that. Some of us don’t want more of the same, with a different letter at the end of their name. Some of us want the best person for the job, that is not “anyone but Obamao.” Without putting words into Glenn’s mouth, I would guess that is what he is getting at.

Newt has been all over the place too.

Oh right, Rick Santorum.  Almost forgot he was still in it.

I posted earlier my disgust with the plump line too. Oh, and I had to go get a latte after I missed Becks questioning Newt supporters character and how we are going to feel a couple months down the road. I thought he wasn’t into judgement.

I accept and appreciate your chastisement.  I was a cheap shot on Newt, but it was a cheap and honest shot at Newt.  Nonetheless, it was completely unnecessary. 

Some of these endorsements are best that they be with the disgraced former speaker!  Nevertheless they are perplexing.  The sanctimonious Palin for Newt?  Weird!!  Hannity’s “great one”, what’s his name? Oh, yes, Mark Levin.  This guy not a radio voice he has, nor a TV face.  Who listens to him!!  Oops!  I almost forgot Rick Perry, the erstwhile chairman of the Al Gore campaign.  I would rather have President Bush 41′s endorsement than the aforementioned three combined.  I’m sure the future President Romney does as well. (I did like Levin’s  dog Sprite.)

You missed Art Laffer’s and Thomas Sowell’s endorsement of Newt. But I guess they don’t fall into your plan of attack on the Speaker.

I am with you—I havn’t heard Mark Levin in months, who cares about him—you know he was for Romney last time around.   See this article about Sarah Palin  http://www.johnziegler.com/editorials_details.asp?editorial=211  

Ron Paul supporters are consistently far more personal and insulting IMO.

Thats not very specific. Like I said. Who ever can beat Obama. Looks like it is Romney. Just saying Glenn doesn’t pick on him to often.

Art Laffer is for anybody that he thinks will run his fair tax/flat tax, I don’t get Thomas Sowell, he must not know all the stuff out there about Newt.

Hey Glenn,
Why don’t you play some quotes from your old “Dirt-Bag-Days?’ Well…you said it once…YOU MUST BE THE SAME OLD DIRT-BAG YOU WERE BACK THEN.

Well then we will probably loose the election if you rhink like that. I am just being realistic. All the boys ganging up/

FACE-IT…THE DEMOCRATS ARE PUSHING ROMNEY…WHY?.. BECAUSE HE IS NO THREAT. THE DEMOCRATS ARE SCARED TO DEATH OF NEWT…IF THEY WEREN’T AFRAID OF HIM THEY WOULD BE CHEERING HIM ON. THEY WANT THE REPUBLICANS TO GO DOWN IN FLAMES.

Is it true that Glenn has his car insurance with Progressive?

For the record, I was once a big Gingrich supporter.  I wanted him to run in 2008.  Today, not so much.  All of the remaining Republicans are conservative on many issues, less so on others.  Frankly, I think Santorum is perhaps the most conservative, but even Santorum is soft on illegal immigration, and was a big spender in the Senate.  I like Ron Paul, butnot as president.  I would love it though if Santorum or Romney made him the Treasury Secretary.  Let’s be real. Neither Newt, Mitt or Rick are perfect conservatives.  But to say Newt has a 30 year record as a “consistant conservative” simply is not not the case.  Newt is as inconsistant as the others, let’s look at Newt’s voting record:- 1968 Nelson Rockefeller over Barry Goldwater? Not good, not conservative.- 1979 vote to create the Department of Education? Not good, not conservative.- 1980 adulterous affair and divorce? Not good not conservative.- 1987 co-sponsor of Fairness Doctrine? Not good, not conservative?- 1994 leader of Republican take over of congress?  Outstanding, conservative.- 1994 Contract with America? Outstanding, wonderful, thank you Newt.- 1994 A grade from Gun Owners of America? Good. - 1996 Welfare Reform? Good job, largely conservative.- 1996 C- grade from Gun Owners of America?  Not so good.- 1997 Guilty of ethics violations?  Not good, and I hope that is not conservative.- 1993-2000 Adulterous affair #2 (at least that we know of), & 2nd divorce?  Not good, and certainly not conservative, and definately not a Family Values Conservative.  He probably needs to concede that one to Santorum and Romney.- Sitting on the counch with Pelosi to “fight global warming”? Not conservative.- Supported Cap and Trade legislation?  Not good, not conservative.- 2012 Playing the Class Warfare card (even if it is against Romney)? Not conservative, downright socialist.

Newt is an out-of-the-box thinker…an endangered species in the US of A.
I LOVE HIS IDEAS…WHY DON’T WE WANT TO HAVE A COLONY ON THE MOON. The stifled thinkers would not have given any help to Columbus either.

Riiiiiiiight. Because Thomas Sowell is uninformed. Yeesh. I suggest you read their endorsements.

Sounds like that is a Gingrich ad, most times they take things out of context, Romney is not for abortion. 

Romney as a Mormon Elder, pressured a woman who wanted to abort her child to continue the pregnancy and give up the baby for adoption–he was attacked for that in the Teddy Kennedy campaign ads a few years later when Mitt was running against T. Kennedy.

I again say that comment is a lie.  I do a lot of research.

Come on, Glenn.  Talk about hypocrites.  You have to call yourself “innocent bystander.”  We’ve listened to you long enough to recognize your words.  Man up.  Admit the Mormons were going to expel you if you didn’t attack Romney’s main opponent.  What’s sad is that I spent $100 on gbtv.  That won’t happen but once. 

You ignoring my posts from the last time you posted this list?

Gov. Romney gets a lot criticism for changing his moderate positions to conservatism in 2005.  I thought that’s what we wanted people to do.  Am I wrong?  It’s kind of like witnessing a person to become a Christian than criticizing him/her when they do.  Good grief, man, the National GOP Committee strongly supported  Romney when he ran for governor.  What did people expect from the governor, that he pass a Right to Work law in MA? I honestly believer that Romney, Santorum and Paul have more character and integrity in one finger than does Gingrich!! Romney is an American success story.

Glenn calling someone else “plump”?!?!?!?

I just cancelled my gbtv subscription.  This will talk louder than any comments we make.  I urge everyone else who is disgusted at this sneaky support of Romney to do the same thing.  Money talks.

You are one sick hombre!!  Glenn has never to my knowledge supported Harry Reid!  I’m Catholic and I’m not supporting the Catholic in the race.  Leave religion out of it!!

If you want to get things done (mandated health care, global warming regulations, amnesty for illeagl’s, progressive government) then NEWT is your guy. I am throughly sickened by all of you so called tea partiers. I was with you but if you are on board with NITWIT or MITWIT, I want nothing to do with your foolish organization. Right now I see you as ignorant fools just looking to replace one BIG GOV. lib. with a BIG GOV rep. Have you not understood your own cry? Newt and Mit, where is the difference? They’re both great debaters, saying words that are smooth as butter. But what do they stand for? I know some other candidate who’s words are smooth as butter and says what people want to hear. But that guy is running us over the cliff at a hundred miles an hour. So let’s put MITWIT or NITWIT in charge so they can slow it down to a reasonable 60 m.p.h. You sheeple make me sick. You have not educated yourselves and I will not stand with you. You are as bad as the OBAMAITES!

David G, As I would like for all 4 to stay in as long as possible, I like you, don’t think Paul or Santorum will stay in. Of course I do believe the liberal media is calling the shots as to who stays in or not, but if it comes down to Newt or Romney, I will not vote for Romney. One might as well vote for Obama again as to vote for Romney, because Romney will not do anything to repeal Obama Care. Obama’s health care plan is almost identical to Romneys. Romney’s campaign contributers are the same as Obama’s.

Tell me, you bandy the word establishment around, what does it actually mean, do you know?  Newt is no conservative, I am not backing Ron Paul, but he served in the house with Newt and he said Newt was no conservative. Newt Supported NAFTA, GATT and WTO, he is an enthusiastic advocate of globalism.  He said he would have voted for TARP, he is for Ethanol subsidies.  He is for a national healtdcare, has been for 20 years, said so on Meet the Press, May 2011.  Most of Newt ideas are consistent with big gov.

That quote by Nancy Reagan was taken out of context, Nancy Reagan said that the torch was passed to Newt and the republicans in congress—not just to Newt, he lies, it is on the internet.  Cain, Perry and M. Reagan, Palin and M. Levin aren’t helping Newt where are all of his former republican congressmen and women, very few are coming forth, most are saying that he shouldn’t be president, that is pretty powerful.

http://www.article6blog.com/2012/01/30/gingrich-goes-nuclear-shame-on-gingrich/

Sarah Palin now an antimormon?

She looks tired

Sandy, I don’t guess you believe in forgiveness. Are you perfect? I know I’m not. I’m not endorsing anyone here, but I do believe people can change, and Newt says he was wrong and has excepted the Lord as his Savior, if God can forgive him, then so shall we. It is for God to Judge, not us. As far as the ethic violations go, he was not charged in any of them.

Listen you f&%ing insulting prick, look at his ENTIRE record!!! And I never said he was perfect, did I? DID I?

That said, he went along with the HERITAGE FOUNDATION and other conservatives who supported a Healthcare mandate as an alternative to Hillary Care. He then decided it was unconstitutional. And now strongly opposes it!

NAFTA? Really? There are a lot of conservatives who support NAFTA. Including again, the Heritage Foundation.

Oh my gosh, she isn’t what she has led us to believe about her  see http://www.johnziegler.com/editorials_details.asp?editorial=211

OMG another article by Beck in support of Romney.Check out  “Lies liberals tell”  about Romneys taxes. But keep bashing Newt Beck.

I support Newt because he’s the only one capable of beating Obama.
Romney win to loss ratio is 1:3.  That’s 33.3%.
Romney lost to McCain, Huckabee, And Fred thompson.  Against Obama Romney will lose by at least 10%.

ROMNEY WINS NOMINATION, OBAMA WINS RE-ELECTION, SIMPLE AS THAT, SIMPLY A FACT!!!!

We don’t need a proven loser with a 33% win record.

I agree

Cutting taxes 19times means taxes rise by 300million???
BIZZARO WORLD ANYONE!!!!

Did you just respond in a coherent manner??

I still feel like Rick Santorum is the only one with values in the race.  He has come into politics to make things better not to feed his ego or bankroll.  It looks like as a nation we are more shallow than I thought.  If Newt or Rick said they could save your life and it absolutely depended on it who would you choose?  If they were heart surgeons and I needed a bypass I would go with the guy who is dependable and has a consistent record. Just as Obama rode in on a No Bush vote, I hate to see us elect someone with a No Obama vote that is less than desirable.  Mitt is not a choice as he already is less than truthful with his remarks and he isn’t even president yet.

Here is the problem with Glenn making the continual allegation that Newt is a full blown progressive and not understanding the support of tea partiers and other known conservatives. Newts stated ideas and what he wants to do in the first few days of his would be presidency, are very conservative and are not progressive. In fact Glenn would have a hard time finding them disagreeable and this is just the first part of the problem and I will outline the second part next. 

Here are the ideas and things that Newt proposes to do in the first days and weeks if he is elected president. 

1) Repeal Obamacare and pass a replacement that saves lives and money by empowering the patient and doctor and not the bureaucrats and politicians. Newt believes that Obamacare is unconstitutional and is “unprecedented expansion of federal Power.” Part of Newts solutions would be through a free market framework and allow individuals to by healthcare across state lines as well as lawsuit reform.    
2) Return America to robust job creation through a series of bold tax cuts to help entrepreneurship and job creation. Reduce Corp. Tax rate to 12.5%, abolish capital gains tax, abolish death tax and return to 100% expensing. Reduce regulations through regulatory reform by repealing Dod-Frank legislation and Sarbanes-Oxley Law. He also wants to COMPLETELY REFORM THE FED RESERVE starting with a complete audit of the reserve and many other provisions to bring the reserve under control. 
3) Unleash Americas energy production in oil, natural gas, biofuels, wind, nuclear, oil shale which would also help with job creation and generating more Fed. revenue as well as bolster the dollar and help in national security.
4) Saving Medicare and social security and giving people the opportunity to move into alternative programs if they choose to do so. 
5) Balance the Fed budget by increasing revenues through greater job creation and entrepreneurship, reforming entitlement, implementing productivity improvement processes for the government (lean six sigma) which will eliminate waist and fraud and pass a balanced budget amendment. 
6) Control the boarders by 2014 and establish English as the official language, reform the Visa system and make it easier to deport criminals and gang members and make it easier for law abiding visitors to become citizens. 
7) Revitalize the national security system to address the problems of the 21st century.  Minimize the speed of impact on new medical breakthroughs so that patients can get the treatment sooner. 
9) Restore the proper role of the Judicial branch of government through clear delineated power available to legislatures and the executive branches of government to correct, limit and replace Judges when the constitution is violated. 
10) Enforce the Tenth Amendment by starting an orderly transfer of powers back to the STATES AND THE PEOPLE from the Federal Government as the Constitution requires. 

The second part of this is that Glenn holds a bias against Newt because he says that he is a Teddy Roosevelt Republican and in Glenn’s eyes this is akin to treason because Teddy started the progressive movement in America. In Glenn’s interview of Newt he asks him about this in the context of regulation and healthcare. Newt gives a good explanation of why he refers to himself as a Roosevelt Republican and that he is a minimalist with regard to regulation which in my opinion is good because we do need some or minimal regulation in the country to help keep crooks from profiting by poisoning the public through poor sanitation as an example. 

You can read more about Newt and his ideas at the web sight listed below.

ROMNEY WINS NOMINATION, OBAMA WINS RE-ELECTION, SIMPLE AS THAT, SIMPLY A FACT!!!!

People with IQ’s over 100 are supporting Newt in droves because they understand Romney can’t beat Obama.

I dont know who your responding to but very few people on this site would have a problem with a mormon. We can be for a canidiate that is not Romney and still like Mormons.   You are wrong about people flocking to Newt because he isn’t a mormon. I have been a Beck fan for years, been to both sides of the country to see him etc. But
he is bashing Newt too much. I like Santorum too but don’t think he can win against Obama.   

Then you support Obama.  A true shame.

What I can’t understand, is why Glenn is doing this. He said on GBTV that he was through with politics, because he more important things to do. But he has said some things about Paul and Newt that he shouldn’t had, if he is staying out of politics. I don’t let any of these talk radio people influnce my decision on who I vote for. I know that Romney would be my last choice.

Glenn has been taking things out of context for months.  Where are you complaining about that?

Again…Glenn has been taking Gingrich out of context since November.  What’s good for the goose…

I think many of us are missing the point.  This presidential GOP candidacy is more than just poking holes in one another.  No matter what a person’s faith, sexual persuasion, we all have a right to know the truth.  We all need to have an HONEST federal government, which is in keeping with our Constitution.  One that is SMALLER — much smaller.  That is what has made our country as great as it is.  We are so quick to forget these basic principles of freedom and liberty, and instead become embroiled in the melodrama that we are fed by the media we are forced to watch.  What we need is to balance our budget, rebuild our economy, rebuild our lives!  And love and respect each other’s differences, even if we don’t want to espouse another’s life choices.  That is the BEAUTY of our Constitution.  We should instead be demanding that the Federal Reserve disclose what they’ve done with our money, our assets.  That will keep our money in our pockets.  We should be insisting on peace — no more foreign wars, and the trillions of dollars it makes for certain big corporations.  Bring our troops HOME.  That ALONE will put back enough funds into our economy to bring it back to life.  We have a great country here.  Let’s concentrate on getting it back where it belongs.  Let’s demand that the cart and pony show the major networks are staging in this sad rendition of a national election, with the poor choices of questioning and other mal-representation come to an end!

Here is your proof. Completely in context.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_w9pquznG4&feature=player_embedded

Everyone seems to notice how Romney and Gingrich are going after each other. Looks to me just like a couple of Progressives going after each other – same attacks, same irrelevance, same,same. I guess we shouldn’t be surprised since they are both Progressives. Rick Perry throwing his support to either one is to be expected since he is a Progressive also.

I was a little disappointed in Herman Cain’s endorsement but not much. I liked what he was saying while he was in the race but with no history in an elected position I just couldn’t get behind him.

I am severly disappointed in Sarah Palin and will keep it in mind should she enter any later political race.

Here’s the nightmare scenario: what if the choice ends up being between Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul?

Romney on Abortion.  Full Context.  Disgraceful.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_w9pquznG4&feature=player_embedded

I like the article too. I just wish Glenn would stay out of the Presidential Campaign like he said he would. If he keeps this up, I will not watch GBTV any more.

Could it have anything to do with Romney being Mormon? I am not saying that is the reason for all, but this could be one reason. What is the deal with the evangelicals? Is not a Christian someone who accepts Christ as their Savior? Members of the LDS church (Mormons) accept Christ as their Savior. Voting for someone else just because they are not Mormon is ridiculous!!! I am sure that there are those that would vote for Obama instead of Romney just because he is LDS. Such hate for a Christian that believes a bit different from yourself, in my opinion is moronic. Actually, it is sad, it shows a lack of an understanding of what Christianity is about. When someone is willing to support someone who basically is against good (and I am not specifying Gingrich), just to not vote for a Mormon who lives a good life and tried to do what he believes what God would have him do, is someone who I do not understand. What about Gingrich? He isn’t evangelical. He is Catholic. He is not evangelical. How could these Evangelical Christians single shut one person (Romney) out who does accept Jesus as their Savior, and slander him by saying that he is not Christian, and vote for anybody else, regardless of their past or present actions, just because they don’t agree with one who is a MORMON CHRISTIAN!!!!!! The adversary tries to lead people away from good in any way he can. That includes, in my opinion, this idea that it is better to support the devil that vote for one that is trying to serve God. God looks at the heart, does he not? Just a bit frustrated with these evangelicals that profess to support God, when they shut out others that try to do the same and say they are not Christian when their whole flipping religion is based on Christ, hence the name, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints..  Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying that evangelicals are evil, but I think that many of them are not acting in a Christlike manner with this issue.

Ridiculous.  Nobody cares that Romney is Mormon.  They care that he’s a giant leftist. His POLICY in Mass. is the issue here. Not his faith.

I think it’s HILARIOUS that Glenn is pushing Romney on his listeners.  His listeners who OPTIMIZE ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT, ANTI-BIG GOVERNMENT, AND ANTI-PROGRESSIVE.  Laughable!!!

And don’t give me the “beck’s backing Santorum BS”.  Beck is smart enough to realize santorum won’t last, at which point he will back Romney. 

If you like this go to Newts website for more.

Actually Glenn does.  That HAS to be the reason glenn has failed to attack Romney with the same vigor he has attacked Romney.

Glenn has NEVER, EVER, failed to expose big government progressives, Except Newt.  Why??  To me I hold it as a Fact that the answer is Religion, a shared Religion.

The RINO party leadership = the Establishment

More insults from greywolfs.

Thanks again. I was looking for that. I have been telling folks he flopped on this for a few days, but I think most people should know, Would make a great commercial for Obama wouldn’t it.

You are wrong. Newt didn’t start the mud slinging, Romney did. Romney is nothing more then an Obama clone. Look at who his campaign contributers are. Big banksters, just like Obama’s. Look at Obama’s health care bill, and compare it with Romney’s, almost identical. If you think Romney is going to appeal Obama Care, I believe you are wrong.

What do you think Romney is? Except Romney is the worst of them all.

There are many in the know that believe Mitt lost S. Caroline because he is a mormon. 

Where have you been, Glenn is not a Liberterian, if he was he would be promoting Paul.

Beck listeners are the DEFINITION of ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT TEA party conservatives.
NEED PROOF!!!
Look at the likes for pro-gingrich, Look at the likes for pro-Romney!!!
Glad to see the majority isn’t fooled!!!

The “many in the know” keep pushing the Lie that Romney is most electable, which is obviously a LIE.

ROMNEY WINS NOMINATION, OBAMA WINS RE-ELECTION, SIMPLE AS THAT, SIMPLY A FACT!!!!

Myself also. I paid to watch GBTV, but have not watched it much lately. I also was a huge fan because I learned so much from him when he was at Fox, but I don’t like how he makes fun of people on his radio show. A Christian doesn’t make fun of people or call them names.

Rowe vs wade is the law of the land, abortion is legal.  Personally, Mitt is against abortion.  I believe it is up to the woman, but shouldn’t be allowed after a couple of months.  Tell me, are you against contraceptives?  By using contraceptives, it can be said that you are killing a child that could be conceived.

Really.  Like whom?

Ok…so that means the man shouldn’t stand on principle?  Additionally, underage abortions without parental consent is not the law of the land.  That’s decided by the states…so what is your reasoning there. I just don’t get the constant excuses for this guy.

Also.  Yes.  I choose not to use contraceptives.  And no, I am not Catholic.  I’m Baptist.

Gingrich is a fat, tried old man who lies and has passed his prme, needs to get out.

Well I agree with you there, but we don’t have much of a choice. At least I don’t, because I live in a state that doesn’t usually get a choice in the primaries. If I have a choice and Santorum and Paul are still in, then I will vote for one of them, but I am afraid it is going to come down to Newt and Romney.

Wow…I didn’t know weight and age were disqualifies.  Why not talk about policy.  Who cares if he’s fat?  Ridiculous.

That’s exactly what he is doing. He is the one drinking the cool aid.

I don’t know where Beck’s heart really lies on his endorsements, but I do know this…Beck could never explain a Romney endorsement to his audience.  Romney is a giant progressive and if Beck were to endorse him, all credibility would be lost.

Post it everywhere.  Tonight is the last chance to reach people in FL.

As I like Ron Paul also, i don’t think he will get the nomination. If he does then I definately will vote for him, but if he doesn’t who will you vote for? Will you stay home and throw your vote away, or will you vote for Obama?

Jesus said, “Love one another as I have loved you.”  He did not say “tolerate”.  He also said the two most important commandments are “Love God will all your heart, your mind and your soul, and love your neighbor as yourself.”  that’s what the whole new testament has at its heart.

If you think Newt is a progressive then you don’t have a clear understanding of what he stands for. Go to his web sight and look at exactly what it is that he wants to do as soon as he gets into office if he becomes the president. 
http://www.newt.org/contract/legislative-proposals 

I love how you can disregard the fact that the establishment could be playing BOTH Gingrich and Romney up in a faux conflict, they win either way in that scenario whether you’re progressive or not.

You know it was the spanish  inquisition that killed a lot people in the name of religion, Protesants and catholics fought one another in the name of religion, Islam is Killing in the name of religion, the New England witch hunt burned people at the stake. I don’t need lessons on organized religion, I don’t care if Romney is Morman, he is a good man, he says he is against abortion and I believe him.  You believe Newt whatever he says.  I am not going to convince you and you will not convince me about Newt, I believe Newt to be not a very nice person and a disaster if he would be the nominee.  You sound very rigid, why aren’t you backing Santorum instead of a leech like Newt?

Life begins at conception. The government was wrong about slavery, Prohibition and the government is wrong about abortion. 

Glenn, as always, you are so right. Why conservatives don’t understand this logic is beyond me.

You bet it does, the job of presidency is very taxing, Newt isn’t in good shape we need a president that can take the rigors, and his health, weight should be all taken in account.

You are so wrong. Please look at the records of those running. I have, and Newt is not an Establishment Republican, if he was then Mccain, Dole, and other Establishment Republicand would be endorsing him rather then Romney. The establishment don’t want Newt elected, because they know he will not do what they want, and will also help to get them voted out. If Romney is elected then he will continue to do exactly what Obama is doing. They both are bought and paid for. The only thing both of them care about is money.

Yeah, like global warming being man made, right? Or how about FDR worship? Oh wait he lied that one so it doesn”t count. Or some form of gun gun control, right? Or maybe amnesty? We know what this progressive wants to do. We and even his partner on the park bench (NP the wicked witch of the west) know what he stands for. You cannot be serious!!!

I’m starting to agree with you on this because he won’t give it up. I don’t get the opportunity to listen or watch Glenn everyday but when I do, he is attacking Newt at some point in the conversation and it’s becoming a little out of character especially when Newts ideas for his campaign are not progressive. He is calling for a smaller government.

Yeah, a moon colony is for a smaller gov.

already lost to me.  Stopped listening, stopped watching GBTV.

I hate being sold something, I hate being told what to do or think, that’s what makes me an American.

No shite

Personal attacks prove a lack of intellect and an ability to be duped away from content.  If your going to bash the man at least TRY and bash his record.

You are being sold Newt by Palin, Rush, Levin etc., what is the difference?

You know…you folks are getting pretty desperate when you start trotting out the Anti-Mormon lines.  It’s frankly a little pathetic.  It’s kind of like the left calling conservatives racists because they don’t have a good argument and they are forced to try to discredit their opponents.  It’s a little disgusting…and hypocritical.

I just gave you Romney IN HIS OWN WORDS.  I gave him to you IN CONTEXT.  And you still choose not to believe it…  Yet, you will buy Glenn’s 20 second clips of Gingrich hook, line, and sinker?

Personal insults do not bolster you argument.  Neither does burying your head in the sand.  Willful ignorance is the worst kind…

Buddy I have, I have posted about his record, a lot of things about Newt, makes no difference to the Newties, I am not going to waste my time, just tell it like I feel it now.

No shite.

I’m not being sold anything by anybody. I make my own decisions based on my own research.

I hold it to be FACT, that if romney faces Obama, Obama wins Re-election.  And I don’t want Obama to win Re-Election.  Ron Paul has a better chance of beating Obama,

Stop personal attacks stick to facts.

Most of the time I agree with you, but I don’t this time. Santorum might be what we need, but I don’t think he will get the nomination. I also believe Newt could beat Obama, and beat him badly.

Weight is not an indicator of health.  Many very Obese people live to a very old age without complications.  You are grasping at straws.

That’s the reason.  Nothing else could explain glenn’s separation from his normal self.

I just have to say that it’s nice to see that the willfully blind are only a small minority…even around here.

Total straw man.

Haven’t got this in for a while…

“Whatever your stance on Newt Gingrich, one thing is clear, Beck stands
in opposition to every other talk radio host of merit on the air.
Limbaugh, Hannity and Levin have all defended Gingrich against attacks
from the establishment/Romney machine while Beck perpetuates
them…regardless of their accuracy. That is not to say that Beck is
pro-Romney, but it is to say that Beck is decidedly anti-Gingrich, and
that his positions are bound up in an emotional part of Beck’s make-up,
rather than a rational policy based place. Such a thing is hard to
deny as we repeatedly watch Glenn Beck turn on his supporters and bite
the hand that feeds him.”

http://theamericanista.tumblr.com/post/16685269478/the-self-destruction-of-glenn-beck

You’re right and their (Nitwit and Mitwit) records are pretty easy to attack. Both were for mandates on health care. Both believe in man made global warming. Both have been and are for gun control legs. How about amnesty for illegal’s? If these are not progessive stances I guess I don’t know what progressives are. How’s that for content?

Hooah!!!!

YES!!!  He can say what he wants. And MAYBE he’s changed, but the video doesn’t lie.

Newt has some things to answer to, but not a flip flop like that one.

I believe it is hypocrisy to call yourself “conservative”wildwoman…What has selecting a gay or a muslim got to do with anything!!!  ALOT, if you’re “conservative”

You don’t listen to the show do you? What did Niwit say when he was on the SHOW!?!? He admitted he was a progressive! DUH!

What’s up with people endorsing Gingrich?? What a dumb question…I guess it’s because he’s worth endorsing!

You know what i think would make a great debate?  Almost as good as Newt vs Obama – Glenn vs Rush Limbaugh!!!  I’d put my money on Limbaugh anyday

David…isn’t it past your bed time?  This is a discussion for grownups.

I have listened to the show since 2002.  I have seen Glenn morph into more people than you could ever dream.  Glenn has twisted your little (and by little I mean miniscule) mind so much you don’t even know HOW to find the truth yourself.  Newt did NOT admit to being a progressive on the show…and 15 second soundbites are not adequate proof when compared to a lifetime of policy.

Bloodbath.

Because they are the establishment republicans. You know the ones that have been there too long and have been bought and paid for. It is all about money and greed, if I can see that, then why can others?

Rush has been practicing for 23 years?

He’d win with half his brain tied behind his back – but more importantly, he’d be right too.

Royla I am glad someone in Florida isn’t voting for Romney. Hopefully he won’t win Florida, because I would like to see all 4 stay in.

Well its between Mitt a Liberal/Rino or Newt,….would I rather have Allen West and Mark Rubio,..sure,…there is no such thing as a perfect candidate,…who ever wins I hope we support them to beat Obama.
it will be hard for Mitt to debate Obama over Obamacare=Romneycare,…see what I mean

I like Santorum more that Gingrich, but he is broke and can not compete financially.  But I hope he stays the distance.  Conservatives don’t want Romney, cause he ain’t and he’s the same as Obama to Soros.  To me, if someone is OK with Soros, they must be bad for USA.  If Newt dropped out, Santorum might have a chance to pick up Newt’s support.

And where is Glenn talking about that?  When George Soros says Romney is the Same as Obama, Glenn should be all over that!  This is why people don’t believe him.

No he didn’t!! He said that he was a roosevelt republican and to Glenn that was the same as saying it. But Newt gave an explanation for his remark and at what point he admired Teddy Roosevelt. He Never admits to being a progressive and his campaign ideas are far from it. check them out for your self. 
http://www.newt.org/contract/legislative-proposals 

What’s up with Glenn Beck not covering RomneyCare.

In-depth comparison between ObamaCare and RomneyCare please.

In-depth research into how health care is working in Massachusetts please.

Some real analysis instead of the TMZ style clowning please.

Thanks, Glenn.

Either you are misinformed or intellectually dishonest.

GIngrich does not believe in man-made global warming. He likes FDR because he was an excellent commander in chief and leader during WWII (so did Reagan). He believes he saved the world from Nazism. He does not support “New Deal” policies. Newt received the National Rifle Association’s Defender of the Second Amendment Award.  His legislative voting record was consistently scored by the NRA as either an A or A+. The park bench was because he wanted conservatives as part of the discussion, not because he believed Al Gore was right..

Glad you referenced my mind I thought you were going towards another part of my anatomy…whew. His words are his words. I heard his interview in person with Beck. Not the sound bites of him fawning over FDR. By the way his and Nancy Polsi’s words are quite similar are they not (park bench)? Oh, maybe that was a dream. He is an adulterer and a liar, neither of which I consider conservative values.

Not familiar with Levin but i have great respect for Rush and Palin.  Wasn’t Palin the Tea Party “Queen”?  Who’s your “seller”?

Thank you!!

Media Matters uses Glenns own words to prove he’s a racist, a bigot, a homophobe, and a crazy man.  I guess they’re right too.  I mean they’re HIS OWN WORDS.  Right?

If you won’t grant Newt the same forgiveness that God has, that’s on you…not him.  And I suppose you won’t grant Glenn forgiveness since he was busy filling his nose with Cocaine while Newt was cheating on his spouse.  Or are you just selective with your grace?

Additionally, I agree that the Pelosi commercial was a poor choice, but when you compare it with Romney’s attempt to LEGISLATE INTERSTATE CAP AND TRADE LAWS it doesn’t really seem like such a big deal.

Words need to be taken in context and viewed through the big picture, or it’s intellectually dishonest. And if you have to resort to calling him an adulterer and a liar, from something that happened over a decade ago, when he’s found Christ, repented, and changed since then … You have obviously lost the argument, because that is also intellectually dishonest.

Again, you Newtwits, don’t really listen to his own words. He has said he believes that there is man made global warming. Go back to his interview with Glenn. He said it, I didn’t want him to say it. I don’t want any one who claims to be conservative to say that. I want someone to beat Romney, but not someone Romney like. I want to support anybody but Romney, but Newt makes it very hard to back him. 

I agree with Trish – WHO told you that.  Where did you read that?   Or, was it in a “dream”?

I read your reply and the only thing you responded to was the Ethics Violations.  Okay, good for Newt, I stand corrected on that one.  I listed 14 items of which of which 9 are definately not conservative positions.  I am willing to give credit where credit is due, but Newt is no more the Knight of the Right than any of the rest of them.

Beck’s opposition to Gingrich is based on Gingrich’s own statements that he is a Progressive! More than once!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_w9pquznG4&feature=player_embedded

In case an one missed this great video posted by Trish Make sure you watch.

Again…Media Matters opposition to Beck is based on Beck’s own statements that appear racist and crazy…more than once.

See how that argument doesn’t work?  Context is everything.

Not FDR. Go back and listen or watch his interview with Glenn. It’s Teddy Roosevelt and he admired him before he started all of his progressive views and ideas and he explains that to Glenn in the interview and Glenn understood but later turns that into Newt is a full blown progressive, which is not the truth and Glenn is suppose to be about the truth. I’m disappointed in Glenn beck. he’s pushing an agenda. 

We are in agreement on Romney. He is not a conservative and not a good choice. It is not a matter of forgiveness, he doesn’t need my forgiveness (he needs his ex-wives forgiveness). It is a sign of his character, we have a better choice than him. Santorum has better, more solid character. He is not perfect either, we won’t find that in any human being. But I am sick and tried of settling for the lesser of 2 evils.

I am sorry, but that is just not true. I live in N.C. about 30 miles from S.C. we are considered in the Bible Belt, but we Christians don’t look at what religion someone chooses. We just want someone that has conservative values. Romney does not represent conservative values because of the things he has said about abortion and gay rights. He also has flip floped too many times.

Phil Goss: Thanks for the compliment, I have a lot of respect for Glenn Beck. But obviously I’m not him. I’ve been using versions of my innocentbystander screen name since posting on 2nd amendment-type boards for years, though this is the first on this page. Maybe we’ll meet up someday in one of those lunar colonies your candidate is promising. He’ll say anything to get a vote–he’s in Florida where the NASA driven industry has been hit hard by cuts so he’s making ridiculous promises. I must be missing something, but as far as character goes, Newt comes in a distant 4th behind Paul, Romney and Santorum. I also think it’s funny that so many are willing to swallow Newt’s attempts to paint Romney–a Washington outsider–as an establishment guy. Newt was the Speaker–a job you only get after lots of wheeling and dirty-dealing–and looks a lot more like an establishment guy than anyone else in the field. He’s using the old elementary school trick: if a charge can be levied at you, make it first to your adversary so when they point the finger at you it just looks like an “I know you are, but what am I?” turnabout and is dismissed. I’m just surprised that folks keep buying it from this guy.

Finally, do you really think Glenn Beck supports Romney? It seems to me like his guy is Santorum, though at least right now it looks like Romney is the only one who has a chance to beat Pres. Obama.

Mark Levin: “Newt Gingrich, if he does nothing else, did more for the conservative movement and to stop the liberal Democrats in the House of Representatives than virtually everybody today who is criticizing him!” 

“To be sure, Gingrich made some mistakes in the past. “I make no excuses for his personal life, which was a mess. But he has found his faith now, he has found God. Why would we act like Marxist leftists ourselves, like a bunch of frenzied nut jobs trying to turn this man into something he’s not. We would not have taken back the House of Representatives but for Newt Gingrich.”

Endorsing a Gay or Muslim to superior court judge?? My God!  me racist?  Having a Judge who will trump lower courts decisions in favor of gay issues/rights or Muslim rights is dangerous, not racist…common sense, not racist…Must i agree with the liberals not to be branded racist??? Then call me racist, and a proud and wise one

I am shocked that Glenn Beck is not backing Gingrich.  Gingrich ruffled a lot of the people in the Gop when he was in govt.  But he forced Clinton to get rid of “the great welfare society” and now Obama has brought it back with a vengence.  Yes, Gingrich made a lot of mistakes in his marriages, but he has said he has repented and is now a Catholic.  I remember Glenn when he  told his audiance that he was a drunk and a total loser, he should try to believe that Gingrich could change his life also.  The objections are because of his personality:  If Polosi is so against him, that gives me another reason to vote for him.  Also the adminatration keeps talking about going against Rommney and only him.  Gingrich doesn’t have the polls right now, but that very well could be changed when the choice changes to only him and Obama.  I do not care to vote for Rommney, but  if  it is  only him and Obama I will vote for him.  Untill then I am voting Gingrich.  By the way I am 68 yrs old and a Catholic and I was around during his time, younger people don’t know.

Romney, they say is going to take Florida by double didgets, and is probably going to be the nominee. I see a repeat of McCain vs Obama. I just hope that if Romney wins the nominee he is wise enough to pick a good VP. We better hope we keep the House and take the Sernate if Romney or Obama wins, because if we don’t, we are toast, and I hope Jesus comes soon, because it is going to be a sad day for America.

Check out this link to hear Mark Levin’s take on the attacks against Newt:
http://www.therightscoop.com/mark-levin-newt-did-more-for-the-conservative-movement-than-virtually-all-of-his-critics-today/

please, give me a break, and stop using name calling to define someone.

Getting rid of the great welfare society as you call it is a lot more attributable to Santorum (who authored several of the bills) than Newt.

Well said Carla!!

I’m 50 and have also followed Newt and know the truth. Unlike those now falling for the rewrite of his history.

I think you might be right. He can attack Ron Paul, and Newt, but not Romney. There are very few that attack Romney. In this article Glenn says follow the money, duh, who is getting all the money, I would say Romney, because he is the only one that has enough to stay in the race, and that is very sad. It should not come down to who has all the money. I will wait until I see who is going to be able to stay in there and fight against Romney, then I will give them some financial help. I hope the rest of you who are for anyone but Romney does the same.

Thanks for the video. I also watched one where he was asked about Gay rights. He never would give a straight answer to how Mormons believe.

That’s the problem, you followed Newt.You are like the Obamaites. Newt is not what we need now, please don’t take this as support for Romney, yuukkk. I’m  51 and have been paying attention to this stuff since High School. Everything has changed except my conservative values. I never bought into man made global warming, or amnesty for illegals even when Reagan did it. I never felt gov. mandates were solutions to problems like health care or health insurance. Newt is on the wrong side of these critical issues.

I don’t know why people get wrapped around the axel on Mormonism anyway…there are a BILLION better reason’s not to like the guy than his faith.

my IQ is .0000? Mexican brain you know

what is going on Mitt and Nuck  are big goverment guys 

they want Big Burito
Rick wants a big torta  less filling but big
Paul wants a flauta less Government 
ps: WE DON’T HAVE THE MONEY to police the world

ok ok ok if I want a Mexican bread and don’t have the money my stomach 
will growls and growls
I don’t have the money

take your pick!?

I like you.  You may stay. 

Christie is a man of character.  The judges in question were qualified for the job, had the necessary experience, and did not have a history of judicial activism (legislating from the bench).  So, he supported them.  That’s what an honest man of principle should do.  It’s total hypocrisy for “conservatives” (as you define them) to be absolutely opposed to affirmative action yet you want a form of affirmative action–only you want it applied to benefit evangelical Christians.  It’s  sad that they only things about the judges that matter to you are “gay” and “Muslim.” 

I don’t know about a billion but, Mormonism is the least of our concerns with Romney. You got that one right.

he doesn’t give straight answers. His arrows are bent.

I don’t care that he’s Mormon.  It can’t be worse than Obama, for one thing.  And for another thing, I’ve worked with Mormons and they are (on the whole) good, decent, moral people.  Romney is a SCREAMING progressive though…and that, I do care about.

I have observed that Mr. Beck seems to be in the tank for Rick  Santorum.  It’s OK by me that he is but I don’t think it’s wise to be overly enamored with any politician.  After all, Mr. Santorum has his own political “fleas.”

It is also true that Rick Santorum cannot win the nomination–those pesky poll number prove this out; it could have something to do with his flip-flopping on so many things.

Personally, I would like to see Ron Paul in the White House but, most Americans don’t have the guts to vote for him–his perscription is just too bitter.  (Again, those pesky poll numbers show us this.)

That leaves Romney and Gingrich.

Given that the original “spooky dude” (that would be George Soros) has endorsed Mitt Romney (he said that a Romney administration would be about the same as an -0bama one) has solved the dilemma for me; I have NO choice but to support Gingrich.

Besides that, when it comes to debating -0bama, I am confident that “Newt the Astute” would shred -0bama!

At the end of the day, it’s all about who can beat -0bama.  Newt has the best chance.  If Romney did win, all we’d end up with is “-0bama lite.”  I don’t want that!

This is kind of dull but very good info from the JBS – whatever else they are they know what conservative is
http://www.jbs.org/commentary/the-real-newt-gingrich

Actions not words. Newt’s actions speak volumes.

Sorry, I was wrong about you, and I could be wrong about the Mormon influence.  It’s very suspicious to me, though, that Glenn would crucify Gingrich and not Romney.  I also don’t appreciate his name calling (liars and hypocrites) to any conservative supporting Gingrich.  It’s not the Glenn Beck I listened to for so many years.  Also, one way to support someone is by attacking his opponent.  Glenn may not say he supports Romney, but he is, by attacking his opponent.  Something is just not adding up. 

I respect conversion, but it is judged by the fruits it yields.  Newt has shown himself to still be a two-faced liar (cheating on your wife is the ultimate dishonesty)–so much so that some of his biggest supporters have had to back away from him.  His anti-capitalist raves are classic.  His hit piece on Romney’s tenure with Bain was awful. I can handle innuendo, but it was largely FACTUALLY incorrect–a total fabrication. Lie after lie after lie.  I see no conversion, only a continuation of bad behavior with a claim that his finding Jesus means we cannot question his filthy behavior.  I have reservations about Romney myself, though I’ve worked with both Mormons and Evangelicals–guess which group I’d trust to take my daughter home from the dance?

Romney on Gun Control

http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&feature=endscreen&v=Kk1bJOpYUqE

I will vote for Ron Paul, either way. My conscience will be clear, will yours?

As I stated to Americangirl, for some of us it isn’t about “anyone but Obamao.” Why bother voting for the “lesser of two evils?” That kind of thinking is exactly what got us into this mess in the first place. I will vote for Ron Paul and at the end of the day, my conscience will be clear.

What did I say that wasn’t true?

Again…not what we want. He is a progressive or RINO or librel repub. Not what we need right now.

Exactly!!!

So do Romney’s and neither are good.

Yeah, NAFTA, you know, the biggest American job killing bill there is? Why is it you think that the Heritage Foundation is the barometer for all things conservative? You can feel free to think for yourself at any time.

And thank you for insulting me back and think that you are some how more righteous than anyone else. Hypocrisy at it’s finest. Man, you stupidity knows no bounds.

My conscience will be clear. I am not sure if I would go vote if Romney gets the nomination, because it would just be more of the same. If any of the other 3 were to get the nomination, then I would vote for them. I hope Paul does get it, but I just don’t believe he will, by the way things are looking. If he is still in the running when the primaries come to N.C. then I will vote for him. I like Paul because I believe he would vote by the Constitution, and will do away with the Fed. Reserve, but I am not like you and will not throw my vote away just because he doesn’t get the nomination. If Romney gets it, then I would have to decide if I was going to vote. I definately will be working hard for the Republican candidates running in my district, because if Obama or Romney get the Presidency, we will have to keep the House and take the Senate to keep the President under control.

What is this “we” stuff? You got a mouse in your pocket? The Republicans will lose this election if they continue to put Mitt and Newt, both are a couple of clowns. One thing you really should understand, I and a lot of other like me, will no longer compromise. We will no longer vote for the “lesser of two evils.” We have been doing that for a long time and look what state the country is in.

The definition of insanity : Doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result.  -Albert Einstein.

I will no longer continue doing the same thing, that may lose the Republicans the election and it will be their own fault.

Highly recommend this cartoon from our friends Christian and Darwin about the Newt and his future as potential GOP nominee: http://on.fb.me/yPMnfL

We are completely disgusted with Sara Palin and Herman Cain, as well as with Rick Perry. What has Newt promised them. Frankly they have no influence over our family and we wish they would shut up.  They don’t represent us.

Ha ha
There is a website
keepspacemanned
it was origianlly to keep nasa afloat when it began losing it’s base and also in the 80′s when exploration was more of a topic in congress.

Is there possibly a worse option than Obama? What if he isn’t a candidate when Paul gets to my state?

For myself, I think we would be replacing Obama with a close clone if it is Romney.

I envy you your idealism.  I, too, was once an idealist.  There is, however, a choice:  You vote for someone who cannot possibly win (Santorum or Paul), you vote for “the same thing, only different” (Romney), or you go with the one individual whom the -0bama regime most fears. 

As for the candidate who is the true Objectivist (Ron or Rand), you just hit your knees every day and pray with all that’s in you that the USA can hold together until 2016, when a true Constitutionalist can be elected.

Something you heard on TV, I’ll just be willing to bet.  You’ve lost you way and have no idea what conservatism really means.  You’ve been innoculated by Glenn Beck, Fox News and probably Ann Coulter, probably in one fell swoop.  Ann Coulter who loves Chris Christie, who endorses Mitt Romney, who is unbelievably buying the vote of the country with his lies.

Do you truly believe this country should be on a path of appointing Muslims to offices where they can actually rule on our laws?  From 2001, until 2012 – 11 short years, we have gone from being attacked by Muslims to having people voted into office and appointed as judges who outright claim their Islamic faith.  There will be Sharia law in this country one day in the not too distant future because people like you have continued your pettiness and parrotted your phrases of ”racism”.  Are you ready for that responsibility? 

Now, the conservative movement includes an openly gay black judge.  His skin has nothing to do with this and you know that, but you parrot the word of the century here “racism” and put a label that you know will draw criticism.  I merely read an article that said the same, “openly gay black man”  and wanted it to be known the type of person the so-called conservative Chris Christie is appointing to the benches in this country. 

These appointments and the many more to come WILL BE THE DOWNFALL of this country.  If you can’t see that, you are blind and deserve no prior warning.  These people are against Christ.  Jesus Christ.  They are as atheists.  People who don’t even believe in Jesus.  The only way to salvation.  You have placed them into a category that seems harmless, but ultimately these people and the many more to come will become the Waterloo of this country.  Better party hard, because the country we once knew is gone for ever thanks to brainless people like yourself.

I can certainly stay with Gingrich for four years and not call for his impeachment!  We’ve had Obama for three, and he’s has nearly bankrupted this country.  I haven’t called for his impeachment yet, although I have thought about it.

People need to know the truth about Newt! As a therapist I do believe I have a responsibility to inform people about mental health. Newt is not a stable and mentally healthy choice. He is a narcissist with the ability to destroy our country and the world if placed in the greatest position of power we have. Narcissist’s need to stroke their ego, they don’t care about anyone else around them and they will go to great extremes to do it. Following are the symptoms of a Narcissist, note how Gingrich is the perfect classic example. I hope people will really reconsider favoring him for all our livelihood, otherwise we’re safer with Obama. Newt complains of Mitt being dishonest when clearly when the issues are studied in full Mitt is the honest one and Newt is not. 
*Inability to empathize *Expects special treatment *Feeling of entitlementInability to admit that he or she is wrongInability to receive criticism *Unexpected, strong bursts of rage in situations that would not trigger rage in normal people. There aggressive outbursts are referred to as narcissistic rage. *Does not react to tears. If other person starts crying due to the cruel behavior of a narcissist, that may even aggravate the rage of a narcissist *Perceives oneself as omnipotent, superior individual *Strong need for admiration. Admiration serves as a form of a narcissistic supply. Without sufficient amount of narcissistic supply a narcissist feels empty and unsatisfied. A narcissist is like a drug addict, and narcissistic supply in its different forms is the drug.Is often envious and mocks other people (often behind their back) *In the beginning of the relationship idealizes one’s partner and often talks about supreme, never-ending love. However as the relationship proceeds a narcissist often withdraws his or her attention and may become cold and uncaring, even cruel. *Is often untruthful and due to this often ends up cheating in a relationship. Cheating is often a consequence of other traits of a narcissist, such as the feeling of entitlement (it is impossible for a narcissist to do anything wrong and so a narcissist does not perceive cheating to be a huge “crime”), inability to emphasize with the cheated partner and the need for admiration (narcissistic supply). *Double standards: A narcissist twists the rules so that they fit to the current needs of a narcissist. For example, if the spouse of a narcissist is cheating on a narcissist, the spouse is considered to be dishonest and bad person, whereas if a narcissist is cheating it is not wrong, because a narcissist simply “fell in love” and followed his or her heart. Double standards also apply to other areas in life.

Success?  For whom?  Himself. 

One of his “successes” was Dominos Pizza.  They just garnered a 12 million dollar taxpayer stimulus loan to stay afloat.  What kind of success is that?

He claims he has created 80,000; 90,000′ or 120,000 jobs. I’ve heard all three versions.  He claims Staples is a huge success.  He has gone OVERSEAS to make it a success.  There are approximately 15 to 20 countries where Staples is now selling office products.  Multiply that X several sites in different countries.  I would be willing to bet that most of the jobs Romney “created” were overseas, not here in the USA.  What success for our country?  Not much.  Romney?  He has lots of money in his “blind trust”.  How much?  He doesn’t even know what they are invested in, according to him.  He likes to keep it that way so he does not have to be accountable.  That’s not success.  That’s called plausible undeniability.  He doesn’t want to know because he won’t have to give an answer and be caught in a lie.

Ridiculous.  No therapist of merit would ever attempt to diagnose a person with a personality disorder without a personal interview and full evaluation.  You are a charlatan.

Mitt seems to be honest, but has a “plausible denability” answer that really bothers me.  Everything is in a “blind trust” and he never knows what they have invested in to make his money.  He also has a “plausible deniability” in regard to his SuperPac.  He cannot contact them to make them stop – how convenient is that?  Mitt is as pure as the driven snow and nothing sticks to him because he learned to play the game a long time ago.  What issuese are studied?  Isn’t it true that believe people will believe you and you just want your own candidate to win?  Isn’t that extremely manipulative on your part?  I believe so.

I just can’t believe how this whole campaign is going.  It gets uglier day by day.  The enemy is Obama, and we should be pulling together, not ripping apart.  Whether you believe Mormons are Christians or not, we should be finding the common ground and figuring out that if we don’t get our act together and stop all this bickering, it won’t matter what religion we are or who divorced who, or whatever, because there is a war on Christianity and Freedom!  We will all lose.
Just read all these attacks, and get a clue.  We will bring our selves down, along with the candidates.  We should be deciding that one of these guys is going up against Obama, and we better be there with everything we have or the guy who calls himself a president will cheat his way back into the Oval Office and we will all go down.  Get over yourselves and stand up for America, and quit giving the enemy more ammo. Get some positive attitude everyone and get over this insane insult against ourselves.  We are Americans. Let’s act like it!!!

Who are you? Facebook link goes nowhere. I usually don’t shoot the messenger but this long, one paragraph rant is difficult to read.

Yes.  Hardly the work of an educated psychologist.

They all got “bribed” with positions in the Gingrich administration. Thats how creaps like gingrich do it with fakes like Palin, Cain, and Perry.

@Bystander ya…..just look at the surface the polls are a bunch of BS this is just what the machine wants you to believe. Romney “the empty suit” will be business as usual. Look at Beck’s “Blood Money” and see no one comes without baggage. The machine wants Romney he is beatable…mud you haven’t seen any yet untill the RNC goes to work.

when Newt takes the helm you will see the rats jumping ship and the ones that don’t will be on their knees. Read http://spectator.org/archives/2012/01/24/reagans-young-lieutenant and you will see the real Newt.

Sadly, I find myself agreeing with one of the worlds biggest scumbags, George Soros. We will be in the same trouble with Obama or Romney as our next president. Our only hope for a better future can only start with conservatives gaining control of both the Senate and the House of Representatives. Obama believes he is God. Neither he nor his Democrat cronies have any intelligent ideas of what we need to do to save or country from economic destruction. To compound our problems, he is a totally incompetant administrator. I now consider myself an Independant who will not vote for either of them. My vote for McCain as the lesser or two evils will not be repeated.

You give them too much credit intellectually. 

Speaker of the House, a “job you only get after lots of wheeling and dirty-dealing”. 

What a piss poor description of an honored position in Congress.  If Romney had been the ex-Speaker of the House and not Newt, I believe those words would have been much more flowery.

I am with you on this Phil Goss.  There is something rotten in Denmark as they used to say.  Glenn is so anxious for Romney to win, he is showing his true colors and it truly trying to manipulate the people, even within his own little created world.  If for no other reason, I would vote against Romney for those reasons.

ARE you going to keep this crap up?  KEEP going after NEWT ???  BROTHER. HE is no progressive…you are obsessed…. YOU wouldn’t appreciate CHURCHILL either…OPEN up your little brain.   YOU can state what you think a Progressive is and why YOU don’t like Progressive…fine..but what’s this knocking other people who DARE to endorse him???   DICK MORRIS called NEWT the TRUE CONSERVATIVE tonight on FOX… gonna add him to your list… LEMMING.

Glenn YOU idiot  The Dept of Education vote was to seperate it from a large already existing agency.
YOU are a complete nutjob now,  Your facts are that of a person ready for a straight jacket

U sound like some dopey Liberal saying “you don’t like him because he’s a Mormon”  no….try to get this if you can:   WE don’t like him because we think he is a spoiled brat, s.eating grinning, hot shot who lost to the guy who lost to Obama.   HE doesn’t have one original idea.  He calls himself a MODERATE and has all his political life.    YOUR FACTS ARE BOGUS about when NEWT was in the HOUSE/SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.  I was here then. Santorum isn’t ready.  He may be, but not now.  YOU should encourage him to run for GOV. of PA or back in the SENATE from PA.  NEWT is CHURCHILL.  HE has great ideas,  he has great capacity to get those through.  HE’s the smart guy in the class that everyone loved to hate but learns from . HE doesn’t care…he’s fighting for our Nation, like we are now for our grandkids.  Take your silly faux facts and your silly prejudices and sky, dude.   YOU can’t prove ONE thing that you have claimed and we don’t play the DEM game of repeating lies and then thinking someone is going to believe them.  IF GLENN got it into his head that NEWT is a progressive,  I can’t do anything about that except watch him implode and take all of his own good ideas and people with him.   FOR a guy who is SO BIG on the TRUTH..HE WAS FIRST  hoodwinked by ditzy, self-serving Bachmann and now he’s on a rampage against NEWT.   BAD mistake…watch.

uh,  Chris Christie appointed a MUSLIM judge to a NJ court with no restrictions on his ability to thwart Sharia law.  And then chided people who dared to question him….another hot-shot who thinks he is infallible .   I don’t care what religion anyone is…GOD WINS…. I DO care about people who don’t have the vision or ability to CONNECT THE DOTS enough to know that we’re under assault right here in River City ..from whom?  From Muslims.

Mormons are liberals
Yes, liberals , who want to be liberal without governments involvement in their crazy polygamy and unrestricted marraiges
They believe in Utopia on earth , Yes, a Utopia like all liberals

It’s all about the money, baby.   Romney’s negative ads (very expensive, I may add) have hit

Newt hard.   I think that’s what Sarah sees and, perhaps, Cain as well.  They both know or are

aware that ‘he who has, gets.’     No wonder B.O. is coming to SF again for another fund raiser.

He wanted a billion dollars for his campaign.  Now, maybe, he thinks it will take more than that.

Looks like one really has to have a big financial backing in order to win in politics today.

Which is too bad.  A lot of good or, potentially good, ones have to drop out early.

Well, let the ”money boys” duke it out.   I won’t like it, but I’ll still vote for the one with the “R”

after his name.

This establishment label reminds me of the Obama people labeling Clinton and other regular Democrats as racists.  Against the Gingrich/Palin ticket, then you are establishment.

They always vote conservative.  Dipshit.

I’m not sure u don’t have some hidden agenda! Newt is the only one that is going to out debate Obama with out his teleprompter !! Even with a teleprompter Newt will eat him up and spit him out!  Romney? Not even close!  
 I don’t care about his PAST personal life! As a Christian, I forgive him, now that he has turned his life around and become a practicing Catholic, and it’s all because of Calista, his new guiding force!  Amazing what a man will do for the love of a woman, and of course the love of a FORGIVING God! Take into account facts which folks conveniently forget, Newt balanced the budget for the first time in 40 years!  Newt, wrote the contract for America,in 1994, giving 10 reasons to elect Republicans, WITH NO COMPROMISES !!  and because we gave people  good CONSERVATIVE reasons to elect Republicans! We won in a landslide!! Again we did’nt compromise our beliefs, we don’t have to get Democrats to go along with us, especially if they want what’s against our beliefs!! Because of Newt, we got WORKFARE during Clintons reign, cut the welfare rolls dramatically, thereby balancing the budget! Next. during Clinton last 4 yrs, because of Newt, food stamps dropped, from 42% increase in the reign of Bush Sr, to  .20%, notice the POINT TWO %, not 20%!!!!  Newt has had a checkered past, me too! but I’m older and have a better thinking brain!  Maybe Newt does too!  After we’re finished throwing mud at each other, we have to get behind whoever is nominated! Or it’s good bye America as we know it!  Long Live America!!  Why are we  going to lose America as we know it? Ask Pat Buchannan He just wrote a book about it!  Racist, me? I think I’m becoming one!

Dustin,  Ah yes, ”cult of personality” seems to win the day, doesn’t it?   Which of

the two—Newt or Mitt—has the ”personality” to beat B.O.?   Yikes!  If that is the

criteria, then it looks like B.O. is a shoo-in for reelection!

I have more ”likes” with Santorum than I do with Romney, mama.  Mitt is in last

place (tied with B.O.) in the ”agreed positions” in the recent test I took.

I could’nt have said it better, and guess what? there’s thousands of us that think like u, I’m sick of the Republican hierarchy choosing a candidate FOR ME!! Let’s look how good they are at choosing, John McCaine, Bob Dole and on and on! All the losers in our party!
 I dream of Newt debating Mr TELEPROMPTER!! I’d pay a $1,000 to see that!
 There’s no room for losers this time, it’s the MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION in our lifetime!
 Free America or European Socialism,[don't ask the lower 48% of NON-TAX payers!] which is better? Ours, look at all the Europeans dying to come live here! Except the lazy ones that live on the dole! and suck off other peoples hard work! Hey! that sounds familiar? Class envy, tax the rich, please God take Obama away, I’m tired of living this nightmare!!!

bjv, hi

This time around average people see what’s happening before their eyes. This is why these crooks are working so hard at retaining their power base which supports their interests.

I don’t know if it will work this time. We have a large section of populous unemployed, with time on their hands to
root out the facts. Their interests are at stake.

What we really must do, is stop the corruption sure to be present in the voting booth. It will take a resounding repudiation of this Dictator-in-Chief to beat him.

He knows this, coupled with Chicago style politics adding to the mix, it is sure to be a volatile election process.

Then America has to make a choice: “What philosophically are we as a Nation?” Are we an ethical nation. Will we no longer support nor allow subversives to undermine our Constitution / Bill of Rights and Free Enterprise.

This answer will decide the direction in which America proceeds.
Will it be Freedom or Marxism.

Why hide what we’re thinking!?? I agree with everything he said! I don’t want Republican ” lite! !”
 I don’t want a judge to side with anybody, just adjudicate according to the law!
 All we’re short of is SHARIA law  ! ask the Europeans, because of Political Correctness, they’re losing ground to the Muslims “a little at a time!!” the Muslims[8.8children!] are patiently waiting, till they outbreed the Europeans[1.2children!]  and they have Europestan!! It’s inevetable! U suckers! They know how to play the West!  Racist? Getting there slowly!  Long Live America!

david,  Re: your later remark to Trish—you mentioned settling

for the lesser of two evils.   In the Sunday funnies, Candorville

had two fellas talking.  One said to the other: voting for the one

who is the lesser of two evils would be better than the worse of

two evils.  (something like that—can’t find the exact quote)

Friend, some of us have noticed a definite change in Glenn, too, since he left

Fox.   Whether he’s tired, under stress, is taking medication or ????   Every

once in a while, he does seem like the same ol’ Glenn.  But not often enough.

Lady! U need to read my reply about the Muslims in Europe! U are not thinking further than yr nose! Gays? no problem,they’re not trying to take over the world!  but Muslims, who’s only {hidden!] agenda is convert the world to Islam! That’s a tenant of their religion! Please read up about Sharia Law! and my reply  above! See I was nice, because I want to warn u, of what’s coming, Americans are nice people and we trust everybody, but Muslims are a different cup of tea! Speaking of tea, England? See how they’ve taken over WHOLE CITIES!! and refuse to assimilate!  So sometimes we have to be un-American to save our future!
 Love Obama , read about his college lecturers!  CLOWARD and PIVEN  !!!

I am shocked that Sarah Palin endorsed Gingrich and not Rick Santorum. I will have to reconsider that she is not who I thought she was. This is very dissappointing.

Glenn, I used to be yr biggest fan! But the fact that u condemn Newt like that, and talk about his “NEGATIVES!” leads me to believe u’re a part time Christian [often referred to as a hypocrite!], and only forgive the ones u think are worthy yr “forgiveness!”
  Like u , I was crazy when I was young, No! I was’nt a drunk like u!! of course I forgive yr youthful indiscretions, But being a REAL Christian., I forgive Newt, and his past, just like me ,he has seen his bad ways, and has the love of a Christian woman who has helped him turn his life around!
 SHAME ON U GLENN, stop being a hypocrite and forgive the new Newt.as we have forgiven u! Remember u were pretty low down when u were a drunk! But u got up and turned yr life around! That’s what Newt has done!  I forgive u and will pray for yr soul!  Hey! is’nt Romney a Mormon like u! Awfully suspicious!
 God Bless America!!

Well, the way I see it Trish, if Beck ignores Paul, is silent on Romney,  ”mur-

murs” about Santorum and bashes Gingrich, when Paul and Santorum drop out

and, eventually, the LSM pound Newt into sand, only Mitt will be left standing.

At THAT point, Glenn might say:  Hey folks!  We all have to get behind Romney

in order to defeat Obama!           Do you think that could be his game plan?

Rick Santorum is good guy and I believe would do a good job. However, he is not as outspoken as I would like. Also, after Sarah Palin’s endorsement of Gingrich, my confidence in knowing who are real conservatives and who are not, is shaken. After thinking about it, the finest example of a prominent conservative that I know won’t dissappoint me is Rush Limbaugh. If he was running for president I believe every conservative on the planet would step up.

And you know this, serts, because——

But when did Christie ever claim he was a conservative?  I do not believe that he ever made that claim. I think he is more moderate than a strong conservative and I don’t think he ever claimed otherwise.

He opposed whatever the president did? Then why is Reagan’s oldest son sticking up for Newt? As for your opinion that the South does not support Romney is because he is a Mormon……you have no idea why any of them do or do not support anyone.  Because you do not know what is in their mind or heart and so you are being quite presumptuous thinking you know how they feel or think or believe. Get over yourself and check your ego.   

I’d also love to see him ruffle some feathers!  

That’s right. People do change and I like the way you said that. Perspectives change, things happen, sometimes people even have an epiphany! If Romney became President, I think he will go there knowing what his mandate is, and unlike Obama, I actually believe he can be reasoned with.

When Newt originally voted for the Dept. of Energy in the 70s, it was supposed to only be a data gathering agancy. Since then it’s ballooned out of control. To condemn Newt for voting for it based on what it is today is another example of intellectual dishonesty and history being re-writen in regards to Newt’s record.

Proof?

Heh, my thoughts exactly!

Who’s this “we” you are talking about.

I’ really disapointed at Sarah Palin, she says that Gingrich is the agent for change. Do you believe that she said that. Gingich maybe a lot of things, but agent for change he is not. He is a horse trader. His many years in congress led to no change at all, or at least no lasting change. It was just a big bandage put on an infested cancer. To be fair, none of them candidates are agent for chaange, just more of the same. But Mitt Rominey has raised a large family, created a fortune, is a charitable man, and if I’m going to bet, I will bet on him.  

Are you serious? I am 50, and watched Newt drastically change things in the 90s – for the better!!! As mark Levin said, “He’s done more for conservatism than anyone bashing him today”. Get your facts strait!

I’m from a liberal area where there are a lot of independents (actually in Mitt’s backyard). Nothing and no one has been presented to us that would seem to make us willing to make a change in our commander-in-chief. Even those leaning toward conservative ideals are leaning more towards Obama than anyone else. What is being offered that is different than our current president, other than the color of his skin and the letter (R or D) after his name? Ok, Mitt will work for the millionaires and billionaires….Obama wants universal healthcare. Oh and by the way, are we 100% certain that there is nothing in that massive healthcare bill, maybe in the fine print, that would stop us from repealing it? I can just see us voting in an “R” for the sole reason of repealing this bill only to find out that it’s not possible for him to do it. Wouldn’t that be a kick in the ass! My thoughts on Sarah Palin? History repeats itself. This is all so familiar, like deja vu. With the country divided 50-50 between the D’s and R’s, we need to convert some of those independents to vote for us. I don’t really see Palin’s endorsement as beneficial to anyone, as the only minds she will sway are those of her diehard followers who will vote for any R who is nominated anyways.

If Newt is the nominee I will not vote for him.  The destruction of America
started in the early 20th Century and both parties have picked at our
Constitution for over 100 years and the escalation began when Clinton
and Bush were in office and Gingrich escalated that forum while Speaker
of the House.  He worked with these 2 men who were members of the
Tri-lateral commission to get bills passed that were not in the interest of
the American people.
I absolutely refuse to vote for Gingrich.  I will vote for a write-in candidate
if Gingrich is the nominee. 
If everyone out there did research and looked within themselves to
determine what is right for their children and America, it would be
easy not to vote for Gingrich.  Gingrich is not a conservative and
will not win the election.  Sometimes, I wonder if he is not a front
for the people who would like to destroy America.

God Bless America

Have you all not been listening to Gingrich?  He wants to increase the State department by 50%!  How is that small government?  And the State department is not a pillar of conservative foreign policy either.  

He says let’s go to the moon because there will be science that will be developed to help us here.  How about we skip that step and directly use science in the private sector to help us with the problems we have now i.e. energy.  I prefer Pres. Reagan’s statement that government isn’t the answer it is the problem. Gingrich sees government as the answer.  

I’ve turned with a veneance on Newt Gingrich.  We already have one narcissist in the White House.  He’s acting thin skinned and I really don’t think he is a viable candidate.  He just looks like another McCain to me.  Pudgy, pasty, and not really a conservative.  I don’t get the endorsements, either.  If I have to pick between him and Mitt, it’s definitely Mitt.  I do really like Santorum, but think he needs to speak out more.  I guess money is a problem for him, too.  It’s a shame.  The endorsements have made me re-think Palin and Cain.  What the heck!

I’ll spell it out for you Glenn,,,We don’t want Romney as our nominee, period…He is a Progressive just like Newt, but we trust Newt more…We like Rick Santorum, but he is getting no traction in the polls and has no money to compete against Romney or Gingrich…My Newt vote in Florida is only my attempt to stop Romney…We are hoping Santorum rises in the polls soon, so future primary states will vote for him…Polls have been used to maniputilate the public for years unfortunately…

Newt is not thin-skinned.  Newt wanted to run a “clean” campaign.  Then Romney’s money machine came out with the moneyed ads.  The smear campaign.  I saw Romney pretended “righteous indignation” on stage.  It was a ploy to make you think Newt was the one.  You fell for it.  The oldest trick in the book.  The hook. 

Then I saw Romney with his “Plausible Deniability” trick…he knows nothing about his investments or his money in Swiss Bank Accounts and the Caymans.  Everything is in a “blind trust”.  He’s as pure as the driven snow? 

Then there’s the “plausible deniability” with his SuperPac ads, again Romney throws his hands up in fake despair saying that “As you know, I cannot contact my SuperPac people. That’s out of my hands.”

Does this guy sound a lot like the Teflon Don?  Well, he is.  He is backed by the Republican Hierarchy and the media — all of the media, including Fox News, Ann Coulter, and even the MSM. 

The rest of us listening to these lying ads and faux replies by Romney (by the way he is a very bad liar), but I guess he was good enough to fool you.  By the GREATGARBO123, I’d say you sound a lot like that pretend therapist who claimed she knew Mitt was true blue and Gingrich was a narcissist – what a load of horse manure! 

No he doesn’t. your not listening to what Newt is saying. He agrees that government is not the answer. That is why he is an advocate for the “Private Sector” to develop new ideas and ways to go to the Moon with the help of government, but the private sector is the catalyst not the Fed government.   

TO HARRY G:

On you tube, Chris Christie claims he is a conservative.  In the first 30 seconds of the You Tube video, Chris Christie is asked if he is a conservative.  He says, “I am.”

His actions scream liberal.
 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CzKPDQlwzo

That pathetic attitude is the reason why Santorum is losing. Defeatist sad whiny flag waving yellow spineless cowardice. Stand up for Santorum or stay home and don’t vote at all. The United States has no use for summer soldiers or sunshine patriots.

 
People are asking when Christie ever claimed to be a conservative…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CzKPDQlwzo

Here is the link.  He says it within the first 30 seconds of the video.  He was asked point blank and said he was a “conservative”.  That is a lie, folks, a lie!

Daylo,
You are against Christie and Rmney because they are far from conservative and Christian beliefs but you support Newt?  Newt of three wives?  Open marriage Newt?  As a Christian, I will try not to judge the man but I can judge his actions and they aren’t very conservative.  I don’t have the time to explain all the ways Newt’s Progressive policies are anti-Christian.  Rick Santorum is the closest thing we have n ithis race to a conservative and he is definately the one who has lived a life that most closely holds to traditional Christian values and actions!

No, we don’t want people who change their views to conservatism just to get the vote.

Romney just joined the NRA…before he was for it, he was against it. 

 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CzKPDQlwzo

The above link is where Chris Christie claims he is a conservative…right.  I have some beachfront property in Arizona too. 

No, we don’t want people who change their views to conservatism just to get the vote.Romney just joined the NRA…before he was for it, he was against it. Go to Wikipedia and read all of the positions over the years that Romney has claimed. It’s mind boggling.

Newt is a joke, the only thing he shares with the tea party is the desire to replace Obama.
You “conservatives” who support Newt, under the guise of anybody but the Bamster, are just a cancer on the true conservative movement.

It’s all about roots, and if I love my ancestors, and share the same values, and worship the same God they did, then somehow I am flawed!!!   Kiss my grits, progressives!!  Ever heard the word “martyr”?  Followers of the “WAY” would rather die than switch, not by violence, but sacrifice.  When I think of Newt, all I can see, is him cocking his head to signify total agreement with Nancy “The Word ” Pelosi during the global warming propaganda commercial.

Republicans=Conservative????  Not anymore!!!  I would rather vote for Obama than Gingrich,I like mty enemies better when they don’t hide in my ranks.  And I DID vote for McCain, he might have been a huge progressive, but he earned my respect and love, when he served and gave his nearly, last measure of devotion, to a country which appeared to care little for his sacrifice and plight.

Just reregistered, as an independent.    Romney is not my cup of tea, but he is head and shoulders above the Fig of Newton. 

God Bless Rick Santorum.  (and all the rest of you, but slightly less for the progressives!!)

Why hasn’t Michelle Bachman endorsed him?!

Call it what you want dude,,,I’m not going to carry his water for him…He has to get more aggressive, he has all the talk show host secretly wanting him to succeed…I will vote Newt to give him more time to get his act together…If you don’t think I’m standing up for Santorum, you’re the one that is pathetic…Use your brain…

The Bible – the only document to believe, says that we have all been guilty of adultery if we have even THOUGHT about it.  So aren’t we all sinners?  There is no ultimate dishonesty. 

As you well know, he is not anti-capitalist.  He is anti vulture capitalism.  There is a difference. 

You are not the judge “I see no conversion”.  You can see into the man’s heart?   I think not. 

“Filthy Behavior”???

 
Isaiah 64:6  “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.”

I don’t know who you are “Innocent1bystander”, but you are far from innocent.

And by the way…I have actually dated a Mormon during my teenager years.  He was on “mission” and wasn’t supposed to be dating.  Of course, not being a Mormon myself, I didn’t find that out until later.  I met him at the movie theater.  He didn’t tell me he was a Mormon untiil many dates had passed.  Guess what?  I wouldn’t trust a Mormon to take my daughter home from the dance!  When it was time for his”mission’ to be over, he told me he really liked me, but that I was not good enough to go into the temple.  I didnt’ even know what that meant.  HE WAS STILL GOOD ENOUGH, EVEN THOUGH HE WENT AGAINST MORMON BELIEFS. However, i was not.  What a hypocrite!

It is easy to say that Rick Santorum is the closest thing we have in this race to a conservatism, but he’s not getting the votes to win, Clayman22. 

I am simply defending Newt against the onslaught of those who would judge him as not being a changed man.  He who is without sin should cast the first stone. 

His wife claimed he wanted an open marriage.  Newt said it wasn’t so. It is he said/she said. 

Again, Jesus met a woman who had had five husbands and was living with a man who was not her husband.  He didn’t condemn her.  He forgave her.  The Samaritan Woman at the well. 

Every here thinks its just the most horrible thing for a man to sin, and yet we all sin daily.  BUT, that’s okay.  You pick and choose the sin you want to claim is the worst. 

“Our righteousness is as “filthy rags”.

I want the man who can actually GET US OUT OF THIS MESS WE ARE IN AS A NATION!  These petty arguments about Newt’s sins get on my nerves.  I am trying to defend the man I believe is the only one who can beat Barack Obama!

Liberals are who they are..will say and do whatever it takes to get their way.  Lie, cheat and bash.   As a Conservative, sometimes one must sing a tune from their playbook in order to win;  a good general knows you fight fire with fire just to make the playing field even.

Perhaps if NG gets the nomination/presidency, many in Congress will be shaking in their boots……payback has its merits.  

I just believe, like the rest of us, he’s [Glenn] scared       Scared for his family, his country and our way of life.

God is testing us big time;   we the people are confused by all the messages He is sending.  For myself, I am trying to listen, not speak or do……just pray.

Because she’s what’s called a ‘real conservative’.

” but he is getting no traction in the polls and has no money to compete against Romney or Gingrich ”  …  ”My Newt vote in Florida is only my attempt to stop Romney ”   …. ” We trust Newt more [than Romney] ”  Look in a mirror, you’ve already lost to establishment. If everyone that’s actually conservative would just vote for Santorum and give him some money he would probably win. Get it through your head.

Sir it is a two man race. And (inspite or his words of praise for some terrible early 20th century politicians) the record of Gingrich (and his campaign platform) is far less Progressive (far more Conservative) than the record (and the campaign platform) of Romney. However, it does not matter now – in a few hours it will be over. Romney will have won the Florida Primary and that will be the nomination race de facto over – bar “all the sound and fury that signfies nothing”.

To be fair I do not think that Newt Gingrich really has an effective plan for balancing the budget. Getting rid of the Department of Energy is good (but only a small step on the road – although Romney will not even take this step) and what does getting rid of “most” of the Department of Education mean? As for “slim six sixty” (or whatever it is) – oh no, not another effort to make government “efficient”. The only way to really save serious money is to look at the FUNCTIONS of government and then decide “we are not going to do some of these things any more” and then clearly list what FUNCTIONS government will no longer do.

We have seen corruption in voting.  Why is it so hard to believe the polls aren’t influenced as most of the media, in order to bring a mindset to all of those who wait to see what everyone else thinks in order to make thier own choice. 
 I am Not a Lamb be led to slaughter. 
 …and, I do not vote for polls, I vote for who I Believe can get it done. 
 The unfortunate thing here is the money used to follow the most capable.  Seems these days it follows the most popular.  I don’t need to like you, for you to be willing and able above all others, to get something done.  But the campaign process has become about money…you buy your way into the Whitehouse now.  We need serious campaign reform in this country.  Every voter is being disenfranchised by the new system of the haves and have nots, this will determined who serves us or is it themselves(the haves) they are serving.  People Wake – Up before you get sold down the the road to being enslaved to a system that You Can Not Work Long and Hard Enough To Pay For…because make No Mistake We Do Pay for whoever is elected and in more ways then one.

Glenn, to your point about Newt knowing and being around those who did evil,
…when you have been somewhere where there is evil and know it, …sometimes you just want to undo the evil. And we so not need to guess as to what Newt wants to do, he plainly comes out with exactly what he is going to do and how.  Check his interview on Hannity last nite for what he wants to do Day 1.  Get back to me.
Why do you think that just because you are aware of something means you are for it?  That would make you a rats – a_s Glenn!   C’mon, Sarah said it and I have said it before I heard her say it….
…If Newt is so insider, ( You Know …For the Establishment and Not Just Knowing Them,
 but because he Worked and Accomplished so much for so long, from inside for this country)
…why Tell me why, legitimately, are so many of the establishment / elite republicaan’s having hissy fits?  You and everyone else who claims to be conservative can see there is little difference between Mitt and Obama. What gives? If that is the match up…you have Obama for 4 more years….BE NOT FOOLED.    You are much smarter then this Glenn, can’t you see that besides the few lame visits of Obama campaigning….He (his campaign)  is very much in this and so is his money….influence.  You need to clear your head of every evil progressive agenda that has tried to destroy you and get your head in This Campaign …Straight.  Snap out of it!!

Smart in what way, though?  Want their man in at any cost, smart?  Want their “followers” to follow exactly what they say, smart? 

Education is over-rated.  There is a gut feeling for some of us that there is something not quite right going on here. 

Chris Christie has declared he is a conservative.   I saw it on YouTube, out of his own mouth.  He is a liar, folks.  He has appointed a Muslim Judge to the Superior Court in NJ.  He has appointed a gay judge (the man is also black), but I mentioned that before and was accused of racism, which is also  a lie by those who would support Chris Christie.  Ann Coulter would support Chris Christie.  You must ask yourself why?  AnN Coulter is not a true conservative, or she would not be able to support him, she wanted him for PRESIDENT.  Come on!  What is going on in THE Republican party, Ann Coulter, MSM – fox news’ Brit Hume, Charles Krauthammer, etc., etc., etc….too many to list.  They are ALL bashing Newt.  The Republican Hierarchy has decided that THEY are going to support ANOTHER LOSER, Mitt Romney.  Romney has the money to run negative ads until the cows come home.  He’s spending millions on that.  His record as a conservative is that he is NOT a conservative.  When did, we the people allow the Republican Hierarchy steer us cows into the correct polling booth?  A long time ago.  Vote your conscience, not what THEY want you to vote!  Turn off the ads, check out the candidate yourself.  VOTE!
 

Why not ask them?  The majority are not for slavery!

Is that YOU, Glenn?

Why?  Because she knows how to forgive people’s actions and realizes that we are all sinners gone astray?

Newt a conservative? Ha! A guy that has consistently sided with liberals, even praised Romneycare in 2006 despite saying how ‘bad’ it is in the debates despite that being a Constitutional state right that was even endorsed by a major conservative think tank which was there when it was signed into law. This is a guy that has been against the religious freedom of Muslims, demonized minorities by stating Spanish as the “ghetto language”, was against WOMEN being in the military in the 1990′s because they had a monthly ‘infection’ to deal with. He was ousted by his OWN party by a large majority when he was Speaker, only balanced the budget TWO of the four times he was Speaker, he’s flip flopped on so many issues, he’s lied and deceived the American people throughout the election process, he’s been a Washington insider for decades after he was ousted in disgrace as Speaker, he has no experience in the private sector and has touted a progressive liberal democrat (the same one that Obama has admired) as the best president ever. He demonized Clinton for having an affair with Monica WHILE having one of his own! Polarized far right conservatives should get their head out of their ass and get a clue. The guy has more baggage than Louis Vuitton. Here I thought liberals were oblivious.

In EVERY respect, Newt is BETTER than Romney.

Wow…I know Sarah Palin is against the establishment (I don’t think Newt is), but going against the establishment for the sake of being against the establishment is idiotic.  Just because you are against something that is wrong doesn’t make you right.  Remember that radical Muslims and communist hate each other, but that doesn’t make one any more right than the other.

You have failed to take into account that now that mandated healthcare has failed ala Romney, Newt has seen the error of his ways, whereas Romney still likes it for Massachusetts.

The Right Scoop – where polarized far right oblivious conservatives go to get their pro-Newt news bias because the webmaster is completely in the bag for Newt Gingrich.

Message from Florida:  Romney wins big!  Message from elsewhere:  Please stay in the race Newt, you provide with us with good laughs and teach us what hatred and meaness really are.  No wonder you’ve had, how many wives?

I too have watched Newt, and I ask where is the change? I’m looking for real change, not bandaige on a malignus cancer that has corroded the very fabric of this nation. I not an American borne. I came for for freedom and opportunity. I found both, but now I see it slowly sliping away. I’ll not go down gently. Newt is not an agent fr change he is the status quo.

 What was Glenn’s position on the Dept. of Education when Carter signed it into law in 1979 or any other progressive issue back then? Glenn probably either didn’t take one or didn’t care. So he’s changed his views from back then also. Isn’t it fair to allow Newt to change his views too? 
 Conservative leaders today were not born that way.Like scientists proving theory, it took some mistakes along the way to finally come to the ideology they now embrace. 
A lot of the baggage that Newt is being villified by Glenn for now stems from some of his “experiments”. Experiments in governing,   that were eventually   proven “progressive” were being conducted  in the lime light or public view.  Most of us had the luxury to evolve our conservative ideology, LIKE GLENN, in obscurity, Newt hasn’t.
Glenn would like us to believe your belief system  is an exact science, and you could have never wavered  from it to be creditable or relevant. I wish he would take that position with the other candidates in the race.

“Gingrich seems very close to a total meltdown. At this point the real Newt will appear in all his tattered raiment. This man is teetering on the brink of stability, and I doubt if he can hang on much longer. It never ceases to amaze how these dangerous people manage to attract so many followers, but then, even Nero and Caligula had theirs.”

The Democrat voters are so busy working on their next FREEBIE that they have’nt noticed that Obama is making them so dependent on Government that they’ll end up as slaves! Waiting like good little children for their next handout, only the good slaves get something! It’s going to be just like Cuba and Venezuela!!  and u wonder why Chavez hugged Obama at their UN meeting and handed him his new book to read??? Careful it’s coming, sneakily, little at a time! od Bless America!

Dude, get a clue on how the election process works in each state…Florida is take all…Romney will probably win the next 3 after Florida…We are losing to money right now and Santorum doesn’t have any…I don’t have any to give him…Why don’t you send him some? Create a blog or something more productive than trying to ridicule me…Santorum is a politician and he should know how to generate money and get his poll numbers up…Like I said, I’m not going to carry his water for him…Get that through your head!!

You should carry water for the person you believe is the most qualified instead of making excuses for why you can’t get on board and get behind the guy we should have been jumping up and down for months ago by now. I HAVE been giving to the Santorum campaign and trying to convince wimps like you to stop being whipped dogs and actually support the candidate they feel is the best alternative. It’s too late now because of people who think EXACTLY LIKE YOU DO. You wanna find the problem?? Look in a mirror. Figure it out.

How dare you Glenn.  Rick Santorum…Really….He wants to add amendments to the Constitution regarding abortion, marriage and what other religious thing he can come up with.  I am a Christian, but don’t want government dictating those things to me or anyone else.  You support the constitution (government staying out of our business and states rights) but you support Santorum…REALLY GLENN.  Don’t think you can see the forest for the trees!  You claim you are so “For Liberty” and yet you totally dismiss Ron Paul for his stand on Foreign LIBERTY!  I love you Glenn, but you are really confusing me lately! 

I sent an email to Glenn just the other day.  WHY is he bashing Newt so bad?  Does he want Mitt?  There is NO true Conservative who seems to have a snowballs chance in hell so we really NEED to get behind ANYONE who will be a counterbalance to Obummer!  The DNC hates Newt and wants to run against Mitt; the GOP is trashing Newt and wants to run Mitt!  Seems to me our choice is EASY…. http://www.kjv-truth-ministries.org BTW, I’d say that the lesser of two evild thing has FAR less to do with my commitment, convictions or character than it does with political reality and pragmatism.  If we say we are ONLY going to vote for someone with whom  we agree totally or who doesn’t clash with our values we would have to concede defeat to the Dems as there would be NO ONE I could vote for!

He’s been out of the government’s business for a long, long time.  You fail to mention that in your “twentyfive years ago”.

You are such a cherry picking moron, Frank. 

“If combat means living in a ditch, females have biological problems staying in a ditch for thirty days because they get infections and they don’t have upper body strength. I mean, some do, but they’re relatively rare. On the other hand, men are basically little piglets, you drop them in the ditch, they roll around in it, doesn’t matter, you know. These things are very real.
 
Women in Service—
He did not Say “Monthly Infections” as you put it.  He was talking about women getting UTI’s and other female infections if they were in a ditch for thirty days. 

That is cherry pick #1.

On RomneyCare, Newt said this:
 
While in theory the plan should be affordable if the whole state contributes to the cost, the reality is that Massachusetts has an exhaustive list of health coverage regulations prohibiting insurers from offering more basic, pared-down policies with higher deductibles. (This is yet another reminder that America must establish a cross-state insurance market that gives individuals the freedom to shop for insurance plans in states other than their own.)
In our estimation, Massachusetts residents earning little more than $30,000 a year are in jeopardy of being priced out of the system. In the event that this occurs, Governor Romney will be in grave danger of repeating the mistakes of his predecessor, Mike Dukakis, whose 1988 health plan was hailed as a save-all but eventually collapsed when poorly-devised payment structures created a malaise of unfulfilled promises. We propose that a more realistic approach might be to limit the mandate to those individuals earning upwards of $54,000 per year.
While the Commonwealth’s plan will naturally endure tremendous scrutiny from those who assert that the law will not work as intended, Massachusetts leaders are to be commended for this bipartisan proposal to tackle the enormous challenge of finding real solutions for creating a sustainable health system. I hope that Massachusetts’ initiative to provide affordable, quality health insurance for all continues to ignite even more debate around the subject of how to best address our nation’s uninsured crisis and the critical problems within the health system at large.

On the so-called derrogatory remark that was in the ROMNEY AD:  by CNN
Truth Squad: Did Gingrich refer to Spanish as ‘ghetto’ language?
By the CNN Wire Staff
updated 3:10 AM EST, Fri January 27, 2012
Editor’s note: Part of the CNN political fact-checking series
(CNN) — Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich accused former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney of taking out of context comments he made about bilingual education. The speaker’s comments are referenced in a Spanish-language political ad. During Thursday night’s CNN Republican candidates debate, moderator Wolf Blitzer asked Romney about it, “You’ve had an ad running saying that Speaker Gingrich called Spanish — quote — ‘The language of the ghetto.’ What do you mean by that?”
The statements:
“I haven’t seen the ad, so I’m sorry, I don’t get to see all the TV ads. Did he say that? Did you say that?” — Former Gov. Mitt Romney said, first to Blitzer, then to Gingrich.
“No, what I said was, we want everybody to learn English — I didn’t use the word ‘Spanish.’ We do not want anyone trapped in a situation where they cannot get a commercial job, they cannot rise.” — Gingrich
“I doubt that’s my ad, but we’ll take a look and find out.” — Romney
The facts:
The advertisement in question is a Spanish-language radio ad airing in Florida. The ad says, “Reagan never would have offended the Hispanics as Gingrich did when he said that Spanish is the language of the ghetto.” At the end of the ad is the phrase, “Paid for by Romney for President, Incorporated,” followed by a voice that sounds like Romney’s that says, in halting Spanish, “I’m Mitt Romney. I’m running for president and I approve this message.”
The advertisement was an apparent reference to a speech that Gingrich delivered on March 31, 2007, to the National Federation of Republican Women in Washington in which he said, “We should replace bilingual education with immersion in English so people learn the common language of the country and so they learn the language of prosperity, not the language of living in a ghetto.”  After his “ghetto” comment stirred criticism, Gingrich made a video in which he said his words “were not the best.”
The verdict: Misleading. While Romney says he doubted the ad was his, a news release sent by his press office one day before the debate, includes a link to the Spanish-language radio ad and offers highlights of the ad’s major themes, including the, “Spanish is the language of the ghetto” accusation. The ad, entitled, “Hechos,” or “Facts,” includes examples that attempt to show that Gingrich is not a “Reagan conservative.” It is clear from both the news release and the ad itself that it was “Paid For by Romney for President, Incorporated.”
While Spanish is the largest single language other than English used in bilingual education in the United States, Gingrich is correct that he did not specifically refer to Spanish as the language of the ghetto. However, he did release the video later saying his word choice in the March 31 speech was not the best.

Mitt Romney on Muslims:
 
Mitt Romney said: “Based on the numbers of American Muslims [as a percentage] in our population, I cannot see that a cabinet position would be justified. But of course, I would imagine that Muslims could serve at lower levels of my administration.”  Absolutely amazing that a Mormon has such a short memory about where such prejudice leads.  Mitt Romney, has also expressed opposition to the Cordoba House project in NYC. —Romney announced his foreign policy advisors and they include Walid Phares Tied To Christian Militia That Committed Atrocities In Lebanon’s Civil War.

Cherry Pick #4
 
He was not ousted by his own party.  He quit on his own.
 
Eighty-four ethics charges were filed against Gingrich during his term as Speaker, all but one of which were eventually dropped.[68] After an extensive investigation and negotiation by the bipartisan House Ethics Committee, Gingrich was reprimanded and fined $300,000 by an overwhelming 395-28 House vote, with both Republicans and Democrats speaking in favor of those sanctions. It was the first time in the history of the House that a Speaker was disciplined for an ethics violation.[69][70]
The last three charges were dropped because although it was found that he had violated a House rule in the past, there was no evidence that Gingrich was still violating it at the time of the investigation.[68] The one charge not dropped was a charge of claiming tax-exempt status for a college course run for political purposes. In addition, the House Ethics Committee concluded that inaccurate information supplied to investigators represented “intentional or … reckless” disregard of House rules.[71]

Businesses
After leaving Congress in 1999, Gingrich started a number of for-profit companies:[95] Between 2001 and 2010, the companies he and his wife owned in full or part had revenues of almost $100 million.[96]
According to financial disclosure forms released in July 2011, Gingrich and his wife had a net worth of at least $6.7 million in 2010, compared to a maximum net worth of $2.4 million in 2006. Most of the increase in his net worth was because of payments to him from his for-profit companies.[97]
Gingrich Group and the Center for Health Transformation
The Gingrich Group was organized in 1999 as a consulting company. Over time, its non-health clients were dropped, and it was renamed the Center for Health Transformation. In 2011, when he became a presidential candidate, Gingrich sold his interest in the business.[98] It continues to sell many Gingrich-related books, videos, and other products.[99]
The two companies had revenues of $55 million between 2001 and 2010.[100] The revenues came from more than 300 members and clients, with membership costing as much as $200,000 per year.[96] In mid-November 2011, Gingrich said he would release the full list of his clients and the amounts he was paid, “to the extent we can”.[100]
Between 2001 and 2010, Gingrich consulted for Freddie Mac, a government-sponsored secondary home mortgage company, which was concerned about new regulations under consideration by Congress. Regarding payments of $1.6 million for the consulting,[100] Gingrich said that “Freddie Mac paid Gingrich Group, which has a number of employees and a number of offices a consulting fee, just like you would pay any other consulting firm.”[101] In January 2012, he said that he could not make public his contract with Freddie Mac, even though the company gave permission, until his business partners in the Center for Health Transformation also agreed to that.[102]
Gingrich Productions
Gingrich Productions, which is headed by Gingrich’s wife Callista Gingrich, was created in 2007. According to the company’s website, in May 2011, it is “a performance and production company featuring the work of Newt and Callista Gingrich. Newt and Callista host and produce historical and public policy documentaries, write books, record audio books and voiceovers, produce photographic essays, and make television and radio appearances.”[98]
Between 2008 and 2011, the company produced three films on religion,[103] one on energy, one on Ronald Reagan, and one on the threat of radical Islam. All were joint projects with the conservative group Citizens United.[104] In 2011, Newt and Callista appeared in A City Upon a Hill, on the subject of American exceptionalism.[105]
As of May 2011, the company had about five employees. In 2010, it paid Gingrich more than $2.4 million.[97]
Gingrich Communications
Gingrich Communications promoted Gingrich’s public appearances, including his Fox News contract and his website, newt.org.[98] Gingrich received as much as $60,000 for a speech, and did as many as 80 in a year.[96] One of Gingrich’s nonprofit groups, Renewing American Leadership, which was founded in March 2009,[104] paid Gingrich Communications $220,000 over two years; the charity shared the names of its donors with Gingrich, who could use them for his for-profit companies.[106]
Gingrich Communications, which employed 15 people at its largest, closed in 2011 when Gingrich began his presidential campaign.[98]
Other
·                    Celebrity Leaders is a booking agency that handled Gingrich’s speaking engagements, as well as those other clients such as former Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele and former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum.[95] Kathy Lubbers, the President and CEO of the agency,[107] who is Gingrich’s daughter, owns the agency. Gingrich has shares in the agency, and was paid more than $70,000 by it in 2010.[108]
·                  FGH Publications handles the production of and royalties from fiction books co-authored by Gingrich.[98]

Cherry Pick #6

Frank, you just hearing what you want to hear, or are you truly ignorant of the FACTS? 

Don’t post it if it isn’t really REAL.

We have to make judgements every day. We particularly must judge the character of those we would elect. I do not claim to be perfect or without sin. Candidates step forward precisely to be judged worthy of the public trust. It is each of our jobs to weigh the facts and our beliefs to choose the best candidate this requires that we judge (not solely on character, perhaps, but character is still important). Newt minces his words and tells “technical” truths–he says he never asked for an open marriage–I’m sure he never used those exact words, so I guess his answer is “true”. If he’s “changed” why not just confess he’s a sinner (as I am and you are), admit his mistake and move on? Instead he claims his ex is an embittered woman making things up to hurt him. Really? She confided in others at the time (who corroborate her hurt over Newt’s I’m-too-sexy-for-one-woman demands). She must have planned her revenge really well to falsely cry on other’s shoulders about it to coldly plan for the day she could torpedo his candidacy. We are forced to make judgements about these candidates. I judge Newt to be unfit for president. You are, of course, free to make your own judgement. I think Paul, Romney, and Santorum are better choices. I think Romney has the best chance to beat Obama, so I support him (for now).

Harry: Read some more of what Reagan’s oldest son has said. He’s an unreliable turncoat and has been for years. Beck, Hannity and Rush have all slammed him for it.

I agree I can’t see into others’ minds and say with confidence why they oppose Romney (there are valid reasons). However, the mormon issue seems to come up a lot when I’m discussing it with my friends. I admit the small sample problem, but that’s my experience. The polls about Romney’s mormon faith being a big factor are pretty convincing, though. The far right and the far left have big issues with it (at least in a poll). Is that THE issue for rejecting Romney? Obviously I can’t say for sure, but it sure is AN issue with a huge number of the so-called “Christian Right”.

Just read your comments and maybe you are more disillusioned than you read.  You will actually vote for someone out of defiance?!?  That’s how we got Obama, no vetting and certainly no looking into character!!!  Intelligence check…which candidate will really work for creating jobs and reverse the intrusive regulations imposed by the far left loons in the Obama administration?  Which one will really get big government out of our lives and return us to our core values for country and individuals?  Obama has ruffled alot of ‘feathers’ and brought us mountains of rhetoric, how’s that worked for America?  Many claim Obama is a good speaker and debater….how has that really been effective in solving America’s debt and other economic issues?  Think, Pray, Vote!

I don’t have an agenda (though that is exactly what someone with an agenda would say . I don’t think Newt will do that well in a 1 on 1 debate. The current format favors Newt’s one liners and factually challenged claims. When an opponent has the time to actually respond, he’ll look petty and foolish. Newt hasn’t done so well the last 2 debates. Outside of the realm of evangelical Christendom, Newt doesn’t play very well. The contract with America was a disaster, won in a landslide then lost in a landslide. He became the poster child for the Democrat campaigns that undid whatever good was accomplished (and more). Santorum had more to do with welfare reform than Newt. You won’t like me saying this, but Bill Clinton had more to do with passing welfare reform than Newt. (No, I’m not a Slick Willie supporter.) Definitely some good things were done while Newt was in office. The balanced budget however, was more due to unprecedented economic abundance than cost cutting.

I don’t think you’re a racist, I think we just have a difference of opinion.

If he’s “changed” why not just confess he’s a sinner (as I am and you are), admit his mistake and move on? Instead he claims his ex is an embittered woman making things up to hurt him. Really? She confided in others at the time (who corroborate her hurt over Newt’s I’m-too-sexy-for-one-woman demands). She must have planned her revenge really well to falsely cry on other’s shoulders about it to coldly plan for the day she could torpedo his candidacy. We are forced to make judgements about these candidates. I judge Newt to be unfit for president. You are, of course, free to make your own judgement. I think Paul, Romney, and Santorum are better choices. I think Romney has the best chance to beat Obama, so I support him (for now). show more show less

Where have you been innocent1bystander?  He has confessed.

Yes, it would appear that this woman who has been harmed forever and has evidently not been able to forgive Newt. She, however is in danger of hellfire for HER unforgiveness going on 16 years; opportunistically she has come forward whether for money or revenge, both very unattractive reasons to come forward by the way, to finally get her revenge and probably make some money in the process.  Yet, after all these years of unforgiveness on HER PART, you have clearly chosen her side.  You, sir are very telling in your allegiance to Mitt Romney.  It is NOT okay for Gingrich to have sinned, but it is okay for his ex-wife to hold a very long grudge (which the Bible clearly says we should never do, as Jesus will not forgive us, if we do not forgive others), and yet you have failed to mention this. 

I think Romney lies. 

Truth Squad: Did Gingrich refer to Spanish as ‘ghetto’ language?
By the CNN Wire Staff

Editor’s note: Part of the CNN political fact-checking series
(CNN) — Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich accused former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney of taking out of context comments he made about bilingual education. The speaker’s comments are referenced in a Spanish-language political ad. During Thursday night’s CNN Republican candidates debate, moderator Wolf Blitzer asked Romney about it, “You’ve had an ad running saying that Speaker Gingrich called Spanish — quote — ‘The language of the ghetto.’ What do you mean by that?”
The statements:
“I haven’t seen the ad, so I’m sorry, I don’t get to see all the TV ads. Did he say that? Did you say that?” — Former Gov. Mitt Romney said, first to Blitzer, then to Gingrich.
“No, what I said was, we want everybody to learn English — I didn’t use the word ‘Spanish.’ We do not want anyone trapped in a situation where they cannot get a commercial job, they cannot rise.” — Gingrich
“I doubt that’s my ad, but we’ll take a look and find out.” — Romney
The facts:
The advertisement in question is a Spanish-language radio ad airing in Florida. The ad says, “Reagan never would have offended the Hispanics as Gingrich did when he said that Spanish is the language of the ghetto.” At the end of the ad is the phrase, “Paid for by Romney for President, Incorporated,” followed by a voice that sounds like Romney’s that says, in halting Spanish, “I’m Mitt Romney. I’m running for president and I approve this message.”
The advertisement was an apparent reference to a speech that Gingrich delivered on March 31, 2007, to the National Federation of Republican Women in Washington in which he said, “We should replace bilingual education with immersion in English so people learn the common language of the country and so they learn the language of prosperity, not the language of living in a ghetto.”  After his “ghetto” comment stirred criticism, Gingrich made a video in which he said his words “were not the best.”
The verdict: Misleading. While Romney says he doubted the ad was his, a news release sent by his press office one day before the debate, includes a link to the Spanish-language radio ad and offers highlights of the ad’s major themes, including the, “Spanish is the language of the ghetto” accusation. The ad, entitled, “Hechos,” or “Facts,” includes examples that attempt to show that Gingrich is not a “Reagan conservative.” It is clear from both the news release and the ad itself that it was “Paid For by Romney for President, Incorporated.”
While Spanish is the largest single language other than English used in bilingual education in the United States, Gingrich is correct that he did not specifically refer to Spanish as the language of the ghetto. However, he did release the video later saying his word choice in the March 31 speech was not the best.
***********************************************

Romney is NOT PURE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW AS YOU WOULD HAVE US BELIEVE.  THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE MANY LIES THAT THE ROMNEY CAMPAIGN HAS PERPETUATED.  If you ask me, I believe Romney is more like the Teflon Don.

You have me wrong.  I have been FOR Gingrich from the get go.  I have now discovered that the Republican Hierarchy wants me to vote for Romney, whom I believe to be a serial liar.  I will vote against the republican Hierarchy out of defiance and because Newt it the only one who can beat Obama.

I am not sure what conservatives hope to accomplish by bashing and name calling Newt Gingrich, I was quite shocked actually of the childish rhetoric that Anne Coulter and Glenn Beck keep trying to drum into the airwaves.This is not helping the party at all, in fact Ia m sure Obama is keeping detailed notes to use as fodder once a nominee is finally chosen. The bottom line is that Obama loves the camera, smiles at it as if it is a mirror and he is gazing at his own reflection, Romney stutters and shies away from it. Obama will eat him alive in a debate, much less Romney’s stance on health care, I live in Massachusetts and I can tell you that I am mailed a piece of paper every year proving that I have insurance acceptable to Massachusetts, without this paper I will be fined on my state taxes, the local clinic in East Boston is flooded with hispanics looking to sign up for Massachusetts Turbo healthcare,free healthcare, of which there is an office right there. Mitt Romney created this, how in the world could anyone vote for someone who flip flops like he does? L:ay off the name calling and bashing and making fun of your fellow conservatives, and start supporting them, oh wait a minute that wouldn’t make for interesting columns or radio shows would it.

I just voted for Newt in Florida….I didn’t like it, but I had to buy Santorum some time…Rick Santorum get on the stick in the south….Newt is not on the ballot in Missouri, We need a win there! Do not rest on your laurels from Iowa….Nobody is going to give you this nomination…Ron Paul needs to win Virginia as well….Romney must be stopped by anybody….He’s is the progressive with a ton of money that I just plain don’t trust!!!

wow were screwed folks!!, no one to run this country with the countys best interests in mind, so political, so me me,what you gonna do??

Santorum needs to be home with his children. Seven of them for goodness sakes. When you have that many kids it should not be left up to the “little woman”. I’m just saying his duty lies there, not in office.

Since my favorite candidate, Herman Cain, was forced out (by Romney?), I now support the next best conservative:  Newt Gingrich.    Oh, and by the way, since Beck’s lackeys petulantly announce that if Newt is the nominee, they will stay home on election day, I have decided that if Mr. Liberal Romney is the nominee, I will stay home on election day!!!!!!   This game can be played both ways.   
I have a feeling I am not alone.

You just nailed it on the head Rufree…exactly right

Honestly we’re waiting for any of these candidates to get on youtube with a daily address that reflects an understanding of the situation.

Given the national debt, the ‘laws’ that have been passed in the last three years of Obama, the international financial scene, we are frankly reeling and wondering if anything can be done.

Will we be taxed into oblivion as ObamaCare goes into effect? Or will we be able to repeal it in the nick of time?

Any candidate could overcome our concerns about their petty foibles if they would just put our eyes on the mountain, and then make it clear that they do not intend to stop until we have reached the top, regardless of what is said about them or done to them along the way.

It doesn’t take a perfect, selfless person to get this done – just someone who understands the situation and then aims to fix it. As long as the purpose remains clear, the rest will reveal itself along the way.

Right now the swirls of confusion surrounding a typical presidential nomination are clouding the big picture – who will shine the light and burn away those clouds?
If no one does, we are standing by, watching the entire country go down, knowing full well it is happening and yet incapable of doing anything about it.

I hope one of these candidates will seize the opportunity to do the right thing now – if not look for me in Idaho sometime in the future, I’ll be the one with the food insurance backpack…

I will not stay home on ellection day. I don’t like Romney, but I will vote for him if he is the nominee. Santorum seem a nice guy and obviously a true conservative, but the democrats will eat him alive, and if elected to the presidency, he will be in as far over his head as President Obama is. Gingrich will be hated by the young and old, the rich and poor, the left and right, pretty much eveybody in the country, BUT he will put this country back on track. I believe he reminds me most of Winston Churchhill. Churchill saved England from the Nazi’s in WWII, but the minute the war was over they through him out, thought he was too arogant and unfeeling. Yes Newt is a bit of an *sshole, but he’s my kind of *sshole.

Political campaigns advertising is exempt from truth in advertising laws so any candidate can say anything they want without having to answer for it. So I don’t look at what candidates say. I look at what they have done. Here’s a short list for Gingrich: voted for NAFTA that weakened American borders, voted for GATT that made the US subject to the authority of the World Trade Organization, voted for creation of the Department of Education, when he was Speaker of the House with a majority in bothe the Seante and the House spending not only increased but the _rate_ of growth in spending increased, he voted for the takeover of 80 million acres of land from Alaska that turned state timber and mineral assets into federally controlled tourist sites. The list just goes on and on. Forget about what Gingrich says. His history shows that once he is elected he abandons his campaign rhetoric and advances the goals of the Progressives. His ties to the Progressives are through John Vincent Weber and his membership in The Aspen Institute that has such impressive conservative members as Andrew L Stern of SEIU.

The Department of Education vote is a particularly galling instance when even a member of the Democratic party pointed out during House floor debate that there is no authority under the Constitution for the government to get involved in education. If three votes had change from Yes to No we would not have a $44B PER YEAR Department of Education today and Gingrich’s was one of the Yes votes. You can trust Gingrich’s word on what he will do once attaining office as much as his wives can trust their marital vows.

What do you know of people in the south?  Aren’t you showing your prejudice towards people of the south?  Where do you live?  Have you polled everyone of the south why they would or wouldn’t vote for Romney?  Aren’t you just mirroring a stupid statement made on a liberal talk show to say people of the south wouldn’t vote for Romney because he’s mormon?  You wouldn’t know the difference between a conservative and an Alien from another planet.  As per your post further down which there is no option to respond – you protect and defend a ”gay and muslim” superior court judge appointed by Gov Christi?? And, you defend ‘affirmative action’ which is no more than reverse discrimination.  Are you gay or a muslim?  You are a liberal monkey wearing the conservative costume of a phony gorilla – you mask who you really are – a true bonafide liberal.

Greetings from the OKCorral:
I find it singularly amusing that most of the folks that seem so negative about Newt are not old enough to have shined his shoes when he wrote the first contract for America.  I also find it interesting that the largest single donor to Romney is Goldman Sacks (about $360,000 bucks.  Didn’t they get “bail out” money.  Maybe not.  Just saying….
Old Gringo Ralph

He will be, Ron Paul will drop another money bomb and is in it for the long haul.

A true constitutionalist can be voted in this time, all that needs to happen is people vote for him. Idealist? I don’t think voting for the Constitution and Bill of Rights makes me an Idealist.

No, I have not polled everyone in the South, I don’t need to. You just have to have a big enough polling sample to get statistical accuracy (with a confidence interval). That said, polls can only say what is generally believed. The results obviously don’t hold for all individuals. So no, I am not saying that everyone in the South feels a certain way. Just that enough do to make it a serious issue. Is it prejudice to use peoples stated opinion in a large sample to make a point? Do you really, truly, honestly believe that Romney being a mormon doesn’t matter to the Christian Right? The polls say it does. Incidentally, the only group of people less likely to vote for a Mormon president than the Evangelical Christians is those that identify themselves as “very liberal”–one group because they think mormons aren’t Christians and the other because they think Mormons are TOO Christian. I am a conservative, not a liberal, and have put my money where my mouth is, have you?

I am not gay or Muslim. I did not defend gay marriage or sharia law. I just pointed out that Christie did what we all claim SHOULD be done. He evaluated qualified candidates based on their merits, found nothing amiss, and gave his blessing. It would have been just as wrong to deny them the position because they were Muslim and gay as it would have been to give them the position for the same reason. Do you really think Christie was courting the gay/muslim vote? Neither group would support him no matter what he does. He made the call by relying on conservative principles and NOT affirmative action for Evangelical Christians.

I am anti affirmative action, not in favor of it. I pointed out that folks
(apparently like yourself) who think Christians should be given preference
for these jobs believe in a form of affirmative action so long as it favors
themselves. I’m a Christian, but I don’t want affirmative action for me or
anyone else. Do you really believe all Muslims are out to get us and take
away our religious freedom?

I am not a liberal, I just think Paul, Romney or Santorum are better
choices than Perry, Cain, and especially Gingrich. I would vote for
Gingrich ahead of Obama, but it would leave a bad taste in my mouth.

I may be a money or a gorilla, but I bet I’m not the only one on here with
fleas.

OK, you say you wil not “throw away your vote,” then turn around and say “if it is Romney” you will not vote. Isn’t that the same thing?

One question, what makes you think he needs to stay home? Someone has to support those kids.

If you’re old enough to remember the first Contract With America, you’re old enough to remember him breaking it and handing the Democrats a landslide victory in the following election. 

Goldman Sachs doesn’t donate to anyone.  Goldman Sachs EMPLOYEES are Romney’s biggest donors.  They’re known for being the “smartest guys in the room”.  Maybe they know something.

Greetings Mr Bystander:
I don’t know if you are so innocent as you say because obviously you are making statements without facts.  A bit like Romney suggesting the Newt resigned in disgrace from the speakers chair but then that is not the issue.  You are the issue so let me refer you to some factual evidence in lieu of your unenlightened comments.  First, let me refer you to Newsmax.com Friday 1/27/2012 concerning the contributions that Goldman Sachs is making to the Romney campaign.  According to the Center for Responsive Politics they have contributed $367,200 to his campaign.  I guess I will take their word over your biased comments.  Next, you are not much of a historian are you.  The Contract for America was pledged in the 1994 Congressional election which was “mid-term” in the Clinton administration.  It resulted in a majority election in both the house and senate by the Republicans (the first such majority since 1953).  That majority was held until 2001 when the senate was lost by one vote due to Bernie Sanders switching from Republican to Independent in the state of VT and subsequently caucusing with the democrats.  However both houses were regained in 2003 and control of congress was not lost until 2006.  Now then Mr Innocent bystander…it looks like you just got sideswiped.  “Da locum melioribus”.  “Magna est veritas et praevalebit”. 
Old Gringo Ralph 

That is a good prospective and sometimes I feel the same towards the candidates.
This ain’t tiddlewinks and we need someone who can do what will have to be done, then throw him away. Forget the personality stuff, and NEWT actual gets things done by cooperating with an IRON hand

I’m correct, you are not. Goldman Sachs doesn’t donate to any candidates. When an individual makes a donation they must disclose their employer. These guys have just added up all the donations by people that report they work for Goldman Sachs and say it’s a Goldman donation. It’s deceitful and misleading, but that’s what you get from newsmax. They give a one line statement in that same article: “Goldman doesn’t contribute directly to candidates like Romney, but does so through its employees,” to try to avoid an outright lie, but they still step in it. (see http://www.newsmax.com/Headline/romney-goldman-sachs-donor/2012/01/27/id/425780). If Goldman were making donations through their employees (pressuring them or giving them money to donate in their name) it would be illegal and the Goldman haters of the world would jump all over it. The Center for Responsive Politics agrees with me, thanks for the reference. Newsmax is a rag, they twist the “facts” to fit whatever they want and would support Newt even if they had pictures of him dating the devil. That Romney article is a prime example. Your recollection of history is wrong, but your Latin is pretty good. The mainstream media has focussed their negative attacks on Romney–ever wonder why? You must think they’re good conservatives. Newt has no chance in a general election, Mitt is the best shot, but I prefer Santorum, I just don’t think he can make it out of the primary, so Romney, being second, is now first (in my book).

Hey Tea Party lemme ask you something. If you were really all about less
government and conservative principles then why are you backing two big
government moderates?

Why is it when polled the #1
contributing fact to who they are voting for is who can beat Obama and
not conservative principals?

Isn’t it about time that you admit
that the Tea Party is not at all about true conservatism and all about
hating that nigger in the White House?

Greetings Innocent:
First of all partner, lets not make this personal.  I did not imply that I am in favor of Newt or Mitt.  You concluded that from the Goldman Sacks quote.  Next, if you have a problem with Newsmax, take it up with their editor but don’t rip me over your perception of their coverage.  Next, admit when you are wrong.  Don’t repeat the wrong by stating that my recollection of history is in error because then that says to me that you do not have the integrity to admit that you are not sufficently ambitious to do a fact check on the Contract for America and the subsequent congressional record.  Well, you seemed to have the incentive to check out the Center for Responsive Politics but like so many “wannabe liberals” when hung by your own petard you slink off into the weeks and hurl your little insults in departure.  You suggest you are a Santorum fan?  He is one of the more honest candidates.  He does his background checks before he hurls the cynics ban.  Why don’t you act more like the candidate of your choice…hmmmm?  Oh and yes, I will at least accept your compliment on my latin.  It is better than good. 
Old Gringo Ralph

It is certainly not wrong to vote your convictions and I admire you for that.  I don’t hold out much hope for a true Constitutionalist in this cycle though.  The most important thing TODAY however is routng -0bama and his anti-American regime.  One must ask which candidate has the best chance of doing so.  Sadly, it is not Dr. Ron Paul.  I wish I could be wrong but I don’t believe I am.  As the French would say “C’est la vie.”

I will likely vote for Ron Paul in the primary unless Newt “the Astute” appears to have a real chance of beating Romney.  My personal strategy is ABO (anyone but -0bama) and NOT Mitt Romney.  If the election comes down to a choice between Romney and -0bama, I shall hold my nose and vote ABO.

In such a case I believe it is “better the devil you DON’T know.”

Good luck to you.

OKCorral: I think you need to re-read my post. I didn’t insult you, I was just making points about Newsmax’s bias and warped reporting. I wasn’t taking you to task for it–you were misled by a very misleading article, I was setting the record straight. The only thing I commented about you personally was your Latin–a compliment. For the rest, I was ripping Newsmax, not you. Sorry if you took offense–none is intended. You’ve questioned my integrity, called me dishonest, unenlightened, but most offensively, you called me a liberal! The name calling crown goes to Gringo.

As to the facts, I guess we’re both right (not about the liberal thing though). I’m right about Goldman Sachs not making donations, you’re mostly right on the house/senate history. See http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0774721.html However, he did manage to lose some seats with a Democrat in office–usually the party in office is the loser. Wikipedia (I know, don’t say it) says, “Republicans lost five seats in the House in the 1998 elections: the worst midterm performance in 64 years for a party that didn’t hold the presidency … Gingrich suffered much of the blame for the election loss. Facing a rebellion in the Republican caucus, he announced on November 5, 1998, that he would not only stand down as Speaker, but would leave the House as well.” I agree, though, let’s not make this personal.

Yeah, Daylo—smear ads.   Sigh.  Do you think there will EVER be a time when

they are not used?   If the subject is politics, probably not.   The way it looks

from here, when a candidate is afraid of his position in the ratings (and, more

importantly, has the money) that’s when the negative ads come out.   If Mitt gets

the nod from the GOP, it will be interesting to see who can/will have the most or

dirtiest ads—Mitt or B.O.

Yep, barbara, agree with your post.  But you have more faith in your fellow man

than I. Do you really think the ”—populous unemployed with time on their hands

to root out the facts.” — will actually be spending their time doing that?  I would

hope so, but wouldn’t count on it, though, maybe, some will do so.

You know the quote from ”All About Eve” made by Bette Davis: Fasten your

seat belts.  It’s going to be a bumpy ride.      This describes the coming election.

Common sense ding dong. There are a lot of decent well paying jobs that he qualifies for. Preferably one that doesn’t require so much time and attention as president of the Unites States. When you bring seven lives into this world it’s something you should consider.

I hate to let you in on a little secret, but Rick has enough money where his wife is not the typical house wife. They can hire as much help as she could possibly ever need. If he were elected president, those kids would be in the White House and would be quite well taken care of. So, I think you are quite mistaken.

Yeah, it’s all about hating the black guy. It’s all about racism. It couldn’t possibly be about his policies. Only his race. You are completely ignorant.

It’s people like you that keep racism alive. ou are too dumb to see that though.

Your over estimating his wealth. 1.9 mil is not that much anymore. He owns rentals and as this is my livelihood also, I know what that’s about. I still believe it’s important to have a father around while the kids are young. Both of my parents worked, yet they were still around a lot because of the occupations they chose. Unless he runs the country like Obama (on constant vacation), I expect our next president to make our country a priority. It’s just my opinion, I felt the same way about Palin and Bachmann too.

From my bird’s eye view here in South Carolina — I can assure you that Nikki Haley is a fraud and a panderer (to Georgia and the open borders folks mostly) and was fast-tracked into office by the same gang of white collar thugs of various and sundry religious and political labels who will attempt to railroad Newt Gingrich into the White House by whatever means necessary.  It is an under-the-radar, underhanded snow job. 

As for Sarah Palin, she must be hanging her hat on a VP-ship with Newt GingrichFox News (the Siamese twins).  

Another thing — many in the Jewish community seem to be getting sucked into this Gingrich sphere of [false] protection out of fear, I think.  But let me tell you, redneck Nazis are as merciless as the European ones.

Comments are being moderated on Jewish and conservative blogs that weren’t previously moderated and anti-Gingrich comments are summarily dumped to “not draw angry flak.”  Why have a blog or a press again?  I forget.

###

Many, many thanks for your voice of sanity here, Glenn Beck!

In many parts of the South — it really is about that [word you can only say if you're black] in the White House.  Do you think you sound convincing saying it?  [hint:  you don't]  Or are you just trying to whisk up a froth?

So David, we ignore everything about Gingrich except that one time when he was conservative… all the times he was liberal are brushed under the rug?

I maintain that Gingrich is neither left or right… he is nuts.  I truly believe there is a screw loose and I want some kind of mental evaluation from an unbiased source… as I have no doubt he could pay some one to say most anything.

Oh and did you hear Alba? He sounded positively split personality himself!

This support of Newt is Romney derangement syndrome.  Nothing less.

Because their is no case to make for supporting Newt… and why, until he was nearly the last one standing the support went to him. 

If he were the one… he would have gotten the support in the Spring when he attacked Paul Ryan with the Democrats.

No pay back is immature and only brings further payback. 

This is the cycle we need to end.

Michele Bachmann was right to refer to them as “Newt Romney.” So I’m hoping that Fox News’ selling out to the Gerald Ford Country Club will be ignored; and Santorum will be looked at more closely.  Other than his infatuation with nation building, I find him to be the most consistent candidate still in the race.  (I was on Michele’s train until it ran out of money and crashed.)

As for Cain…he has stated that Gingrich “might” go with the 9-9-9 plan.  So Cain’s reasons there are entirely narcissist.

I can’t believe how you have changed Glenn. You taught us so much, and now you have totally confused many of us who listened. I don’t even understand what you stand for anymore. Maybe you should do a show and explain it to us.

I would guess Glenn wants Romney. Both are Mormons, and Mormons support Mormons.

Really!!!! Rick Santorum should be the guy for true conservatives. Rick Perry put his support towards Newt!!!! I couldn’t believe it. Who is most like Rick Perry……Rick Santorum.  This all reminds me of the people who voted for Obama before & now say “I didn’t know he was going to do this or that”  WHAT? Were they not listening to what he said when he was campaigning???? He said this was what he was going to do…Do people really know how to listen or do they just hear whatever they want to???!! Like now again……..listen to the candidates people…..really listen….learn… decide for your   self..      D Harmon

You are turning this election into a “pissing contest”!!!  I think ALL the “contestants” have lied!!!  They are all EVEN when it comes to lieing and that being said ”lieing” IS part of a polictical race – get over yourself…  As for as why Newt is being supported – when did we become a “communist country” where everyone has to agree with YOUR choice???  Romney does NOT walk on water and Santorum I am sure he is a “nice” guy – but he is not for everyone – just like Ron Paul is not for everyone.  I am getting SICK & TIRED of you and the media telling people how to vote and if you don”t like their answer – your question is WHY DON”T YOU LIKE HIM……  In my opinion your attitude is more in line with the  OWS people!!!  Knock it off!!!  Furthermore, when we go into the voting booth “I believe it is ONE person” in that booth….

Just because Cain did not “endorse the chosen one” -now you are calling him STUPID???  Who have you guys become – I do NOT recognize you!!!  Glenn you preach to us everyday to not follow like sheep – to use our minds – now you are telling us – “I take that back – think and do as I SAY!!!  Who are YOU?????  Has money & power clouded your mind???

Sandy – Newt was not the ONLY one cheating – so were the mistresses (afterwards wives).  When a man is seduced – not very many man can turn it down!!  I was cheated on before – do I hate my him – NO..

The proof is the fact that you asked for it. Thanks

…becaused you asked for proof. There is no other plausable reason why they would endorse him and instead of stating one you ask me to invent one for you. I presented mine, now its your turn.

Newt Gingrich sat to put American on the path to conservatism and accumulated materials and tapes that Rick Santorum studied before Rick started out on his political journey. The reason you will hear Newts words coming out of Big Government, Rick Santorum’s mouth when he sounds like a Conservative. I am disappointed in those we looked to as our conservative leaders as sided with the student and not the teacher of conservatism. Remember, that FDR was a Reagan favorite, Reagan is considered another leader of the conservative movement 

glenn, your not being fair , we all thought you would be but apparently your not at all fair to NEWT , We the people are upset with you for what your saying , and you dish fox news but yet still go on bill o’rielys show hmm something fishy there a… We cann’t believe what you say at all you say yes ROBAMA is the best one on his show well you talk out of both sides of mouth, Newt is the guy that can get things done , if you would take the time and read all of his books and talked with him you would understand him and see what we see in him , but oh wait you wont do no such thing , why because you support idiots , and you have no cooth ,We thought you were fair but nope your just like the rest of the msms ,your trying to pander to people that would believe you just like the koolaid drinkers , for obama , your like the rest of them , NEWt has done alot when he was speaker, he wants this country to be back to the way it was , an fix it ,HOW ABOUT YOU DO THIS FOR THE Newt supporters and be honest and read his books and talk to him , and you will find out you are so wrong , you do not give anyone a chance as you said you would do but nope you lie like everyone else , that is why your loseing people caue how you treat people  your not a conservative or anything like that , you do not care ,. stop being an idiot ,
