I give back a whole lot more than I take. Well, Bless Your Heart!
So far, all I have seen you do is give snarky remarks about Newt and have added NOTHING to the overall conversation.
But keep telling yourself that...

I’ll tell you what all this street fighting mentality is going to get us - Obama.
Like Sarah said, you can’t unring a bell once it’s been rung. This isn’t some brawl in the school yard, it’s a campaign to find our nominee. We don’t need hate and venom, we need ideas and solutions.

There can only be two reasons why you come here and display your misery and discontent in every post:
You are a mormon who supports Romney, and you're on a website where many posters hate both.
You're a paultard that's on a website where many posters makes fun of him.

FR has officially endorsed Newt.
FR does not suffer fools gladly for very long and Romnomoney bots are on a terribly short leash here. ,br> (Hint: Your leash is tightening.) "But if you do not let us have this table, I am going in and tell my friend, Harvey."

Newt should also compare what Romney said about the poor and their safety net to his welfare-to-work programs when he was Speaker of the House.

______________________________________________
It IS a brawl.
Kenny, ragging on Newt for bothering to defend himself and yowling about the fearsome perception it might cause some bedwetters is the impulse of a rookie.
Such such angst and criticism advantages only one candidate. And, it isn’t Newt.
We’re on to you guys. “Concern trolls”, I believe they’re called.
If the shoe fits....

Where do you find Newt making this insinuation?

Well, bless both your hearts!
B - I think that quantity of response doesn’t impress as much as quality.
K - No street fight here. FR is all in for Newt. No bickering, no stuttering, no whining. Just push. We are going to push, and push, and push. So will our candidate.
FR is well past the debate point with candidates. Newt is FR’s man. Romney has no chance to beat Obama. Newt is the only one who can possibly out-debate him and out-Alinsky him. Newt has been around so long that he has read all the play books. All of them....

Gentlemen (I presume, respectfully) ...
Don't get your panties in a wad over Romney's screw-up ...
Romney's really NOT that bright, depite his belief that Jesus Christ has him "reserved" to be the "Celestial God-King" of the far-away planet "Kolob" ...
I HONESTLY can't wait for Obama to ask Mittens about "that" subject on national television ... can you ?
On a serious note, just as Charles Krauhammer (and I) observed today, Romney can't be blamed for FAILING to FAKE the Political Conservatism that he does really believe anyway ...
It's kinda like me ... as an Evangelical Christian ... TRYING to explain WHY to my weekly bible study group ... that Jesus Christ has RESERVED for me (like Mitt Romney) a habitable M-Class planet that someday I will be the "God" over ...
I digress into humor regarding Mormon apostacy ... without apology, however ...
Romney's kinda like Rick Perry when it comes to (spontaneous) Public Speaking ...
"Not very good" ...
If you're steamed at Newt for slapping Mittens around for his response to Romney's stupidity ...
"whatever" are you "girls" going to do when Axelrod and Obama verbally "rape" (with extreme prejudice) Mittens (with Mitt's sacred Mormon underwear below his knees) ...
at an October 2012 presidential debate ?
Fortunately, Willard will be spared that (otherwise WELL-DESERVED) fate ...
because Newt's going to win the 2012 GOP Nomination ... and then the Presidential election ...

Since when does a difference of opinion make you a troll. I always thought FR was the place for diverse opinions yet suddenly, if we have any criticism of Newt, we’re trolls.
I’m no troll and I sure as hell back Newt over Romney but that doesn’t mean I have to ignore any negatives. I’m not big on group thought. Kind of like to make up my own mind.

Romney is a limousine liberal and Gingrich is pointing that out. Tough. Romney is NOT “everyman”. He’s a rich lib.

The poor care about their guns and their Bibles. THAT’S why Romney doesn’t care about them. The RINO cocktail suite only cares about their money and couldn’t care less if Romney is for an assault weapons ban or isn’t against moral values.
