Newt Gingrich Defends Bachmann's Islam Attacks

In a six-page, 2,500-word Politico op-ed (with an attached three-page, 1,800-word appendix), Newt Gingrich makes it crystal clear that he is on the side of Michele Bachmann and her four fellow members of Congress who want an inquiry into whether the government is being infiltrated by Islamic extremists. (He refers to the group as "the National Security Five.") According to Gingrich, the quick and plentiful denouncements of Bachmann's theory are simply examples "of the fear our elites have about discussing and understanding radical Islamists," he writes. "You have to wonder why people would aggressively assert we shouldn’t ask about national security concerns."

"It’s as though our leaders have forgotten every lesson of the 1930s about fascism, Nazism, and communism and every lesson from 1945 to 1991 about communism," Gingrich writes, noting that "political correctness" has taken precedence over security and that the "elites" worry that "if Americans fully understood how serious radical Islamists are, they would demand a more confrontational strategy."

Willard is doing something right

True. But compared to who we have in the WH today ANYTHING would be right and to the right of what Hussein is doing.

“It’s as though our leaders have forgotten every lesson of the 1930s about fascism, Nazism, and communism....”

.
No, our “leaders” treat Islam as if it is a religion instead of a political movement.

Even worse — they claim it to be a ROP.

islam is a death cult that has declared war on America, killing over 5,000 Americans. Shame on any political office holder in America that refuses to acknowledge that.

For me, Newt is the ONLY one of the presidential candidates who has everything it takes (especially the guts & the patriotism) to turn America around.

Still praying for a miracle here... Gingrich/ Palin in any order! (though I’d be happy to “settle” for Col Allen West if Gov Palin still declines)

The reason the Washingtonians went out of their way to destroy the Gingrich candidacy is precisely because of stand up actions like this.

Either Bachman is right and an investigation needs to happen, or she's crazy and needs to resign.

This must not be allowed to be swept under the rug.

The coward from KOLOB won't touch it with a ten foot pole, so Gingrich will have to apply the pressure.

It's impossible that there could be islamist infiltration at the highest levels of US Government and that the communist left will be able to just deny it and move on like nothings happened.

Aaah, how I’ve come to love this man. We could have had him in the Oval Office and Netanyahu in Jerusalem, the capital of Israel. Things would have been so much different then.

Given that John McCrazy was the first one to rush to a microphone to denounce Michele Bachmann, it does make me smile to know just how much Newt doesn’t give a crap who he pisses off.

THE UNITED WEST-SEMINAR JULY 24, 2012 - THE FIRST, SECOND, and THIRD SESSION

The American West, a group led by Tom Trento, held a seminar on the threat to the United States by Islamists, specifically, the Muslim Brotherhood, with a series of sessions led by Tom Trento and John Guandolo, former Marine and FBI Agent of 12 years.

This is an excellent series. This video is approximately 2 hours long. There are two more videos to follow. COPY this video and distribute it to all your church members, friends and family.

“It’s impossible that there could be islamist infiltration at the highest levels of US Government and that the communist left will be able to just deny it and move on like nothings happened.”

American leftists are cowards and need a surrogate army to knock out the heavily armed and well trained American patriots. That’s why they coodle the islamists; they’re hoping to recruit them onto American soil to start killing us.

It’s also why the chicken leftists are screaming about the self-defense and castle doctrine laws. These laws are giving patriots opportunities for live shooting exercises, gathering necessary supplies and organizing.

The fascists really hate us, and there is no way to live peaceably with these cretins and savages.
