CBS's Rose to Gingrich: Are You 'Questioning the Patriotism' of Obama?
Media Research Center ^ | 2/21/2012 | Matthew Balan

Posted on 02/21/2012 6:43:27 PM PST by katiedidit1

GINGRICH: The President of the United States is patriotic in a worldview that involves the writing of Saul Alinsky, and involves a radical reinterpretation. Clearly, his czars were unconstitutional; clearly, his recess appointments, when there was no recess, is unconstitutional; clearly, the use of the U.S. attorney in North Dakota to selectively prosecute oil companies over eight migratory birds is unconstitutional. Again and again, this is a president who routinely only obeys those laws he personally deems fit. I think that his attack on the Catholic Church is unconstitutional. It's a violation of the First Amendment. Now, I think that's an important debate for us to have as a country.

I think Newt handed Rose his ass—not to put too fine a point on it.

Gingrich should have said.......”I question everything about the man as it seems nobody else has the capacity to do so.”

Why would anyone question his patriotism? /s

GINGRICH: Well, I don't know. I think the biggest thing that separates us is the degree to which I'm prepared to make a very, very large change, whether it's a national energy policy designed to drive the price of gasoline down below $2.50 a gallon, and to make sure that no future president bows to a Saudi king, or there's a personal Social Security savings account for young people, so they can have a buildup of money they control, that they're in charge of, that no politician can touch; or it's going to zero capital gains [tax] and 100% expensing for all new equipment, so you really have a dramatic rebirth of the American economy. There are a number of areas where I think I'm probably much bolder than Senator Santorum, but in a sense, we both represent a much more conservative wing of the [Republican] Party than does Governor Romney, who represents a kind of northeastern moderatism.

An entire election campaign platform in a single paragraph. Including a bitch-slap to little bammy.

Typical Newt precision.

That’s the Newt I love(ed), that is until he began setting on liberal couches making TV commercials on global warming and cap and trade... which begged the question, WTF! If he can see his way to never, ever, EVER do that sh!t again, I can see supporting him.

Wow! Not sure how somebody who normally watches Charlie Rose would take it, but reading that transcript I think Newt was inspired!

Newt stated the facts on the gas hikes in America and why...bet Rose wished he had on a pair of Depends:)

ROSE: That brings us to President Obama. You believe that he wants to see more expensive gas, you have said? [CBS News Graphic: "Politics Of Gas Prices: Gingrich On His $2 Per Gallon Claim"] GINGRICH: Of course, he does. Come on, Charlie. You know that. I mean, he has said it himself. [Steven] Chu, his Secretary of Energy, said he wanted- in 2008, said he wanted gasoline prices in America to get to the European level, which is nine or $10 a gallon. Last year, the President said people ought to buy- they shouldn't complain about higher gas prices. They ought to buy more efficient cars. The President himself said he wants to get there. He just wants it to be gradual. His policy has been outrageously anti-American energy. The high price of gasoline is a direct result of Obama. We paid $1.13 a gallon when I was Speaker. We paid a $1.89 a gallon when he became President. His policies are anti-American energy. They exist in a fantasy world, where we're all going to end up buying an electric car, for which his new budget puts in a $10,000 subsidy per car. You think about what you can do for average working Americans if you want to hand them a $10,000 check. The average person who buys a [Chevy] Volt has a $170,000 annual income. So President Obama, in effect, is giving income redistribution to the wealthy, and in pursuit of his own fantasy, which is an electric car ,which is going to liberate us from Saudi Arabia. I want to have American drilling- oil, natural gas, use of coal, nuclear power, solar, biological, wind. I want American energy, which is practical and available now, to liberate us from Saudi Arabia-

Newt shreds Obama and Romney!

I don't think he was nearly as hard on Romney as he was on Obama. I also think he was being perfectly fair in both cases.

What's more important a thirty second ad that says nothing about global warming or this Congressional testimony on the record of the House Energy & Commerce Subcommittee?

Newt Rips Gore's 'Facts' To Pieces

I can't believe people are still dragging up that tired nonsense about "sitting on a couch with Pelosi." Is his fashion sense good enough to be President? Does he know enough about sports?

Newt should stop using liberal language by calling the Volt an “electric” car. It is a battery powered car. Your gasoline powered auto generates its own, actual electricity through the alternator as the engine runs. Electricity, generated by your car is critical to its operation. The volt powers electric motors by a battery pack.
