Listen to what Newt Gingrich told the Young America's Foundation National Conservative Student Conference:
"Republican political doctrine has been a failure. Look at New Orleans. How can you say that was a success? Look at Baghdad ... We've been in charge for six years and I don't think you can look around and say that was a great success."
"We have got to get beyond this political bologna. I'm not allowed to say anything positive about Hillary Clinton because then I'm not a loyal Republican, and she's not allowed to say anything positive about me because then she's not a loyal Democrat. What a stupid way to run a country."
"How can we tolerate systems more likely to send young Americans to prison than college? Republicans have this maniacally dumb idea of red versus blue. They say Detroit is a blue place, so we're not going to go there."
Then there was this tidbit for the young conservatives regarding Bubble-Boy's "War on Terror":
"None of you should believe we are winning this war. We are in a phony war ... we have not been taking this seriously."
You can read the Salon Magazine story about Gingrich's appearance and the reaction to it by clicking here. Wonder what Fox News will do with this?

It would have been wonderful if Newt had acted upon these beliefs when he was Speaker. Maybe he came to these beliefs late in life. Regardless, it's one time I can say I agree with Newt Gingrich! Thanks for the tip on where to read the entire article.
