Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Gingrich getting hammered everywhere on Reagan comments

the very best we can hope for is to elect someone who is a click or two to the right of the incumbent.

currently, we have choices. they include the Newt, the Mitt, the Sanctimonious Santorum, and the outlyer, the Dr. Paul Himself.

so, who are we going to choose to Elect in order to replace the Incumbent??

Pathetic.

Bob Dole, the same ass clown that joined Senate Democrats to kill the balanced budget amendment in the Senate, bashing Newt.

Tom Delay. Ann Coulter. etc., etc., etc.

This makes me want to puke. The sad part is, many so-called "conservatives" are falling for this horse-**** and falling right into the establishment's hands. They want Romney, because Romney will not change a damn thing.

Newt is being outspent 14-1 in Florida, and fading in the polls fast thanks to the onslaught.

His only prayer is a slam dunk performance tonight and enough Republicans pulling their heads out of their asses in order to see what's going on....they're being led like sheep to the slaughter.

Romney = status quo. Deficit spending, increasing debt, NO income tax relief for middle Americans, milquetoast moderate reform proposals that will of course be abandoned if the political winds blow that way.

Santorum will fade after tonight leaving only two viable candidates only one of which has any chance of beating BHO.

That candidate is Romney and that is why I have endorsed him.

Maybe if The Newt doesn't beat him up too much tonight he will get a cushy ambassadorship somewhere like maybe... Mars?

Don't diss The Hammer, bro! Something is going on with the blood letting, Newt should really look pasty white tonight. I'm not sold on him, or anyone else. Like any normal adult however (RPeeer's need not apply), I'd vote for RP against the One.

I know...but you're not catching my drift. People would rather vote for a begger than a thief. It's the trust thing.

paultard tells people looking for a crutch, just what they want to hear.
Kinda reminds me of hitler in the late 20s into the 30s.
Not to worrie.
Sonofpaultard will be next up at bat.
Same blather.
Apple dont fall far from the tree.

Ironically, Dr. Paul is about the only one to utter the "L" word.

Can't figure why the notion is anathema to "conservatives".

sorry, gotta disagree...ain't going to vote for him, but the best line of the night,"I'd ask him why he was calling".

I think the Good Doctor will finish in the top four in Florida, in fact I'd bet on it.

Any takers?

common sense is increasingly hard to come by...he might make the top four...you should check with your sheepeople...

I'm willing to give odds on big money he will finish in the top four. Place your money. I'm here for you.

My people are in agreement.

My gawd...you're a pretentious azzwhole. Night

Pretentious maybe, wrong not.

My people have done well.

Not about to read all 12 pages so advanced apologies if this is already been pointed out.

Video of Gingrich Bashing Reagan Was Edited To Be Misleading
Thursday, 26 Jan 2012 05:29 PM

By Martin Gould

Video supposedly showing Newt Gingrich bashing Reaganism just at the end of Ronald Reagan�s presidency was edited to put the then-up-an-coming congressman in a bad light, it has turned out.

The C-SPAN video, titled �Newt Gingrich bad-mouths Ronald Reagan in 1998� on YouTube, was part of a huge coordinated campaign against Gingrich that was launched on Thursday, five days ahead of the vital Florida primary.

But it cuts off before Gingrich explains what he means.

In the portion shown on YouTube, Gingrich talks about the Republican Party�s chances after Reagan leaves office. �On Election Day, the American people, given a choice of more of eight years or something new, will vote for something new,� he said.

But what the clip does not show is Gingrich�s rationale behind his statement, which shows he was not bashing Reaganism, but merely suggesting that then-Vice President George Bush needed to take it forward.

The entire clip, which was discovered by the website RiehlWorldView, shows Gingrich going on to say he wanted �A Republicanism of the '90s that builds on Reaganism, but goes beyond Reaganism.�

He continues, �This is the country where 'new' and 'improved' are the two most powerful words in advertising,� and says if the two candidates in the 1988 election had similar stances and were equally �pleasant� the Democrat would win simply because it would signify change.

That is why, Gingrich said, Bush needed to change direction slightly with what he said should be �broadly a center-right platform.�

�Reaganism, after all, is a values system which carried 49 states last time, fairly inclusive, I would suggest,� Gingrich continued. �It is more than just a personality issue as the vice president proved in his commitment to no tax increase which was the decisive issue for him in New Hampshire.�

It get's better,Geaux. Excellent article by one who was there,when Abrams was. It requires a thoughtful read so you'll need 15 minutes.
