Guten Morgen from Köln Michael! To prove my point, I will take the time to refute another one of your dumb, "cut and paste" posts.
As usual, Michael took an article from a Moonbat, Tom Woods, who quotes another Moonbat, Bob Wenzel, in their bashing of Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, the crux of the articles amount to nothing other than some name calling, specifically that Mr. Gingrich is a weasel. Let's review: First, Woods cites Wentzel's "brief" article as being somehow "sharp" and "insightful". Here's what Wentzel said, according to Woods, the, "brief, sharp insightful" article in its entirety: "*Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich will officially jump into the race for the Republican presidential nomination on Wednesday with announcements on Facebook and Twitter, * ** *The Gingrich campaign strategy appears to be that he will run not on any principles, but more on the fact that he is not President Obama. A Gingrich snippet:** * *The fact is, we are not going to close the deficit and move towards a balanced budget unless we follow the policies that foster the economic growth necessary to create jobs.The first and most immediate step would be to employ the policies that encourage investment, create jobs, and reward innovation and entrepreneurship -- exactly the opposite of the Obama anti-jobs policies* *Aside from the attack on President Obama, the underlying message here is that Gingrich wants to balance the budget not by reducing government spending, but by increasing tax revenues through more jobs. In other words, Gingrich sees no problem with the current size of government."* ** *========* ** Obviously, both Wentzel and Woods are either just total ignoramuses, and/or they are purposely attempting to besmirch Mr. Gingrich's long record and established policy of smaller federal government. For example, here is a speech from just two months ago, on Mr. Gingrich's policies on smaller, limited federal government: ** http://www.ibtimes.com/articles/118653/20110304/newt-gingrich-2012-presidential-aspirations-smaller-government.htm *"We need to declare our independence from trying to protect and defend failed bureaucracies that magically become ours as soon as we are in charge of them. We appoint solid conservatives to a department and within three weeks they are defending and protecting the very department that they would have been attacking before they got appointed. * *I think that there are two grave lessons for the conservative movement since 1980. The first, which we still haven't come to grips with, is that governing..."* Source: Speech at 2011 Conservative Political Action Conference Feb 9, 2008 The 21st Century Contract with America includes: * * - *Change the mindset of big government by replacing bureaucratic public administration with Entrepreneurial Public Management so government can operate with the speed, effectiveness, & efficiency of the information age. * - *Balance the federal budget and insist on a lean government, low tax, low interest rate economy to maximize growth. * - *Insist on congressional reform to make the legislative branch responsive to the needs of the 21st century.* * * Source: Gingrich Communications website, www.newt.org, “Issues” Sep 1, 2007 ============= I could go on and on showing and demonstrating Mr. Gingrich's belief that our federal government is out of control, and that both Woods and Wentzel are Moonbats. As a matter of fact, why don't you Google both men and see what their credentials are? You will find that they are not qualified any more than you or I, to be espousing their misinformation. So, the point being, is that the next time you cut and paste an article that you expect some kind of thoughtful feedback on, maybe you should start trying to post a little more thoughtful cut and paste articles? ** -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
