Gingrich: Obama team favors terrorists' rights over Americans' (Newt gets one right)
CNN ^ | 1/6/2010 | Alexander Mooney

Newt Gingrich is standing by his criticism of the Obama administration in the wake of the attempted Christmas Day terror attack, saying Monday he believes the Justice Department is more concerned with the rights of terrorists than those of Americans.

"I believe what you have is a group of people centered in the Justice Department and the Attorney General, whose law firms all gave pro bono support to terrorism," the former House Speaker told Fox News host Bill O'Reilly Monday. "They start every day with a presumption that the rights of terrorists are more important than the lives of Americans."

O’Reilly keeps asking every guest he has on “what’s Obama thinking”, “why is he doing this”, etc. But he won’t accept the answer that Newt and others keep giving him - that Obama cares more about his ideology than about the safety of American citizens.

Obama is good at spewing out works, but actions speak louder than words.

Obama has already answered all these idiots asking “what is he doing?”
His answer is that he plans on eliminating the War On Terror and making every terrorist murder just a criminal act and not an act of war.

That old codger Gingrich is making good sense again.

Interesting thing of old codgers, most have already had more experiences than you or I, and both have been very successful for a significant time. Thats why they are still out there making the news.

It was all hilarity by MSM pundits a year and a half ago when Sarah Palin criticized Obama for “palling around” with Domestic Terrorist Bill Ayers. After seeing Barry’s casual attitude about the Underpants Bomber the American public is finally waking up to what Palin was talking about. Barry thinks the American public deserves to be terrorized for it’s past sins. How else to explain the fact that he still gives Ayers the red-carpet admission to the White House.

15 months ago in her acceptance speech, Sarah Palin talked said that while terrorists want to destroy the U.S., Obama is concerned about reading them their rights.

Welcome to the party Newt, but, as always, you are running way behind Sarah.

The left has always been soft on crime. It’s no surprise that they want to coddle terrorists.

O’reilly was a complete bufoon with Newt. He was just an idiot and I was embarrassed for him. BOR just doens’t get it. BO and company are not on our side. He kept going into why Holder would not protect his own family and totally missed the point of what Newt was trying to say.

Brennan was asked about the Ft. Hood shooter being a terrorist and he said they ‘were still working on that’.

DAMN THEM TO HELL
