Important Stuff -- Or Not: Watch Newt

Watch Newt

Newt Gingrich was on Meet the Press Sunday and again he made more sense than any other politician I've seen recently. This guy just has a knack for making complex issues sound simple. And he doesn't talk about problems, he talks about solutions. One thing he told Tim Russert is that the Democrats could never come up with a Contract with America like the Republicans did to take over Congress. The reason? Democrats are so far to the left that a contract with America would expose them as the radical, anti-American liberals they are. What could a Democratic contract with America possibly say? We will raise taxes? We will broaden the welfare state? We will make unlimited, unconditional abortion a human right? We will once again emasculate our military and intelligence services? We will turn tail and run from Iraq? It would be a farcical document surpassing their national security plan, that could finally put the last nail in this loathsome party's coffin. Watch Newt. He's sounding more and more like he will run for President next time around. And he's sounding more and more like someone who would get my vote. His arguments are so good that the Democratic Party would have no choice (as if they wanted a choice) but to do what they do best and smear his character to gain points. And sadly, that might just work. If a Republican has so much as a spot of mud on his suit, his gutless fellow Republicans will stay away from him, fearing that the mud might rub off on them. But if a Democrat rolls in the gutter, fellow Democrats will hoist him on their shoulders and parade him through the streets, not caring how filthy they get in the process.

Anonymous said...: I agree with your analysis - every word of it.
And as for Newt, he may be the one who not only could win the next Presidential election (he'd get my vote too), but who could really bring this great nation closer to what it should be...; 11:46 PM
Lone Ranger said...: Newt is a historian. He knows the core principles of the Founding Fathers. And he knows how things go bad when people stray from their core priniciples.; 6:14 AM
Mark said...: I like Newt. But the media skewered him so completely when he was speaker of the house, that I fear he still carries that stigma around with him. Can he overcome it enough to win the conficence of the rank and file of Americans?; 6:56 AM
Lone Ranger said...: Since smear tactics are the only weapon Democrats have, of course this will follow him around. And more, if there is more. But Americans (other than Democrats) know who the liars are. Speak plainly and truthfully and the sky's the limit. Take strength in the fact that only 20 percent of Americans classify themselves as liberals.; 7:08 AM
Lone Ranger said...: Oh, and let's not forget that Newt has not said he's running. That's just my conjecture. He's playing it coy like most of the other politicians. At least he doesn't break out in that nerve-jangling cackle like Hillary does whenever she's asked.; 9:45 AM

Talking Points

I don't use talking points, I create them.

25 Immutable Truths About Liberals

Over the years I've been writing this blog, I've been throwing out little self-evident truths that seem to have no exceptions that prove the rule. I've made a list of some of them and will add to it as I remember them or make up more. Most of this list I've come up with myself. A few I've borrowed from others.

1. Always expect the worst from a liberal and you will never be surprised.

2. Never try to reason with a liberal. They disregard any evidence that conflicts with their beliefs.

3. You can always tell what liberals are up to by what they accuse conservatives of doing.

4. Liberals don't debate, they argue.

5. The only standards liberals have are double standards.

6. Liberals feel, conservatives think.

7. Whenever you don't understand a liberal's motives, just look for the money.

8. Liberals cannot be embarrassed. They lack the gene to blush.

9. The Liberal Golden Rule is, "Do unto others but scream bloody murder if they do unto you."

10. Liberals don't have leaders, they have demi-gods.

11. There are no honest liberals. If they were honest -- especially to themselves -- they would be conservatives.

12. A liberal's business is nobody's business, but everyone's business is a liberal's business.

13. Liberals have an inflated sense of self-worth. They are like house flies that criticize the air-worthiness of a Stealth fighter. (Sarah Palin, George W. Bush, ad infinitum are morons.)

14. Liberals lack a sixth sense that conservatives have in abundance -- common sense.

15. Liberals never stop hating.

16. There are only two types of liberals -- the deceivers and the deceived. The difficulty is telling them apart.

17. Every time liberals get on their high horse, they get bucked off.

18. Liberal programs are so wonderful that they have to be forced on people.

19. Liberals always choke on their own medicine.

20. When given a moral choice, liberals always come down on the wrong side of the fence.

21. The only way liberals can build themselves up is by tearing others down.

22. Liberals not only refuse to learn from their mistakes, they refuse to admit them.

23. Liberals have only two political positions -- blind devotion and blind hatred.

24. Liberals are incapable of attacking the message, so they always attack the messenger.

25. Liberal diversity is only skin deep.
