I hold Newt up as a sort of Republican Gold Standard because he always knows what he’s talking about

Yeah, like the time Newt sat on a loveseat with Pelosi to give credence to the 'need' for fighting global warming. Or stood with Hillary to give credence for the 'need' to have computerized medical records (with billions of federal dollars to facilitate such).

We need far less Beltway Newt and more of the likes of citizen leaders like Palin, you RINO twit.

Newt was the only person offering free-market, cost-neutral alternatives to the Democrats’ Cap’n Tax proposals. He was there to counter Pelosi’s plan, not sign on to it.
If there had been some Republicans in Congress offering alternatives like Newt did, then perhaps Congress wouldn’t have just passed the Democrats’ unadulterated plan. Without antithesis, thesis is not subject to synthesis, and the Democrats’ plans go ahead, unaltered by Republicans.

And computerized medical records is just a good idea.
Are you anti-computer too? How do you get on FR without one?
Speak’n Spel and an old telegraph machine?
