The real Newtie was the one sitting on the couch with Nazi (No oil for YOU!) Pelosi.

Sounds like you are content to listen to talking points, instead of finding out for yourself what really happened there.

While others will scream about the media and talking points, I'll provide some actual facts in Newt's own words.

Gingrich Frontline interview

"I think if you have mandatory carbon caps combined with a trading system, much like we did with sulfur, and if you have a tax-incentive program for investing in the solutions, that there's a package there that's very, very good. And frankly, it's something I would strongly support." he said.

He then went on to criticize Bush for backing off the pledge.

"If he had instituted a regime that combined three things I just said -- mandatory caps, a trading system inside the caps, as we have with clean air, and a tax incentive to be able to invest in the new technology and to be able to produce the new technology -- I think we would be much better off than we are in the current situation," Gingrich said.

Two months later, Gingrich took part in a debate with Democratic Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts about environmental matters. Gingrich was slightly less gung-ho about cap and trade than he had been on PBS, but his message of "urgent need for action" on environmental dangers was clear.

"We should address it and we should address it very actively," he said in the debate, citing a UN report documenting the earth’s rising temperatures. "The … consensus is that humans have contributed to that. I don't think there's any consensus that we are the only contribution, but there is a clear agreement that human activity has helped increase the level of warmness."

If you are going to bring up Nazis, you ought
mention the REAL findings regarding the backstabbing Bishop:

“US election 2012: Mitt Romney's life as a poor Mormon missionary in France questioned
Although he spent time in other French cities, for most of 1968, Mr Romney lived in the Mission Home,
a 19th century neoclassical building in the French capital’s chic 16th arrondissement.
…. “I would describe it as a palace”.
Tearful as he described … Romney aides had asked him not to speak publicly …
The building...was bought by the Mormons in 1952,
having been seized by the Nazis during the Second World War.
The Church sold it again..
.it was until recently the embassy of the United Arab Emirates.”

"(The GroundZero Mosque) cleared its final hurdle ….
developers plan to build the $100 million center which will include a mosque.
Since its incipient stages in July 2009, when a Muslim-run real-estate development
company purchased the damaged, vacant building and land where the new center
will be built, the project has sparked controversy and debate.
.... the tattered building that was bought by the Muslim real estate company had
been owned by a subsidiary of Bain Capital, a company Romney founded in 1984.
So it’s OK if his company can profit off the sale of the land ."

“Bain Capital, has cut checks totaling $90,000 to Romney’s operation. “
