Thanks for the input; now why aren’t these details all over the news given that Newt and the networks aren’t on good terms? BTW, I’m not a Newt fan.

I have posted over the years as Gaspar, Balthazar and Melchior and I guess it is now time to leave.

Gosh, does this mean we have a three-fer?

[TheOldLady]

Of the three, I think that gaspar is the only one unzotted.

Hasn’t posted since 2006. It would be interesting to follow up to see if gaspar picks up again...

[TheOldLady]

Interesting indeed.

But Beck is using >10 year-old positions from Newt==

so what you are stating it that newt is a flip-flopper on the issues, thanks for clearing that up...

[Coleus]

I guess it is now time to leave. >>

good riddance, don’t let the door hit you on the rear on the way out.

[Coleus]

I believe that the woman has a right to choose, >>

from where does she get this right? not only did you fail religion and morality, you also failed US History.

Any person who believes in this so-called right is pro-abortion. A woman, created by God, has no right at all to allow God’s child to be twisted and pulled apart in utero.

so tell me about england in the 60’s.

Don't thank me, thank Newt.

I've watched/listened to Glenn for quite awhile with great interest but then actually had to stop watching the Fox show because his take on everything, although steeped in MUCH truth, was just too hopeless and apocalyptic in it's presentation for me. I found it extremely depressing. Even so, I must say I was shocked when I saw this clip. I mean WTF Glenn? Newt has said a lot of stuff in his career, but aside from Ronald Reagan, I know of no other politician in my lifetime that has actually ACCOMPLISHED a conservative agenda in DC. To say that Newt and Obama are the "same" is absolute insanity. And then to say that he could not vote for Newt, even after the load of evil, Marxist, Saul Alinsky, Vaughn Jones, etc., diatribes he has given, just made me question the intellectual honesty of his motives? Get a grip Glenn! Newt is still a patriot and Obama IS NOT!!!

I find it interesting how elections end up defining so many more people than just the candidates. I mean, Ann Coulter on the Mitt train? She tweeted that Mitt "destroyed" Newt on the Palestinian issue in the debate tonight! Really Ann? I thought Mitt sounded like a pussy!

How long are we all going to go on ignoring the likelihood that Beck’s tolerance of Romney is based on their shared religion? I’m not a big Newt fan, but there’s not a single argument you can make against Newt on the issues that wouldn’t apply in spades against Mitt. You can attack Newt for his marital problems, but that doesn’t make him a “progressive” and Romney a conservative given the fact that they’ve flip flopped on many of the exact same issues(with Romney flip flopping on twice as many fronts). It’s becoming more and more of a joke as this process moves forward. If Beck wants to throw a tantrum and play for the other team at the end of the day, so be it.
