Great means something different to a historian than everyone else.
Think of historical figures who have “the Great” appended to their names. They weren’t all rainbows and skittles, some of them were tyrants. “Great” in this definition means powerful, effective, not necessarily someone you agree with.
Do I know that’s what Newt meant? Not at all, but it’s possible.
BTW, Reagan praised FDR too, and he turned out OK.
My high school history teacher noted that most of those rulers who have "the great" appended to their names killed a lot of people.
How is that Kool-aid?
Gingrich praises Teddy, Franklin and admits on the radio he is a progressive...
What exactly are you waiting for?
Do you really want to vote another progressive in the WH?
What do you think “real-politik Wilsonian” means?
What do you think “the four freedoms still work”?
Who do you think said that?
Yep Gingrich!!!
