Newt Gingrich: Obama already 'failed'

I'm reminded of countless posts from neocons over the past several years. In their lively spirit of "turn about is fair play," my challenge is for any of them to prove any time where they've personally been oppressed by Obama directly, in a way that the people who really matter (liberals) need to be concerned with. Since THEY got to define the responses all those years, being laid off work doesn't count since it's still part of Bush's contamination, as is loss to their stock portfolio. The fact that there are many thousands of them "mad as hell, and not going to take any more" is, of course countered with the fact that they're still in the minority and therefore unentitled to a voice (as we were).
.
Barring their ability to come up with evidence that fits MY DEFINITIONS, I challenge them to find ways to rid this world of their existence, just as they challenged us.
.
The rabid right -- no worse waste of otherwise perfectly good gravity.

This is where I'd like to hear from Republicans why some Hollywood opinions matter and others don't. Because we all know Republicans don't do hypocrisy.

The Midnight Cowboy? Figures!

They seem to like some in Hollywood. Those that parrot the same hate.

Obama should dispatch a little Clooney to counter the Voight.

When is the media going to stop giving these hate mongers free publicity? The Republican Party destroyed this country, and refuses to help President Obama rebuild it.

RightRevenge, you don't realize how much you are involved in the problem.

Republicans, democrats, indys, and those not paying attention are all losing their homes, jobs and investments. Some of us shouted from the rooftops when Bush gave us the medicare drug benefit and when he "threw out free market principles to save them."

But Bush's mistakes are sandbox squabbles compared to what's going on now. And some of us are again shouting from the rooftops.

Yet you are mired in party politics. You are just as much to blame as the politicians you support. This is no game, this is real life and when it finally knocks on your door you will regret supporting this insanity.

The dysfunctional GOP has no plan or ideas of their own They offer the American people absolutely nothing. The economy is in the condition it is in because of the Republican party. They prop up the adulterous Gingerich and 85 year old washed up Jon Voight to tell us Obama has failed. It will be exciting in November to watch 'bug eyes' McConnell to be removed from office.

An article on a Republican fundraiser, and the White House/Swamp spokesman Mark Silva adds instant rebuttal from a Democrat--the hitherto unknown Ryan Rudominer.

Yet when Mark Silva wrote an article May 28th about Democrat Obama's Hollywood fundraiser, he didn't include any rebuttal from a Republican.

Great job, Mark! Fully up to your usual standards!

Kathy-Not to be a contrarian, but I recently became one those people that is not paying attention. I used to but not anymore and I love it.
Since then, I started getting creative and innovative and things have taken a turn for the busy.
Unfortunately, for every one person out there like me, there are ten people (or more) that are eager to get their share of what I am working 10 to 12 hours and 7 days a week for.
.
And now they have a government who is going to do just that for them.
.
The difference?
.
The difference is I'm real happy with myself.
.
What America needs most right now is inspiration. When America's inspirational bubble burst everyone thought we could just elect someone with enough hot air to just fill it back up and then we would float away into prosperity.
Not so!
.
People are most frustrated when they feel that they have no control over their situation and I'll admit I was very frustrated a while back but not so much any more.
.
I'm very fortunate in that I can provide my own inspiration and then set out to challenge myself both mentally and physically with no holds barred. I regret only being away from my wife and kids so much.
.
I just wish I could package it all up and give it to my fellow citizens for
their own consumption but that's not possible. And I'm not kidding when I say that if America wanted to get out of this thing quickly it very well could but not in the manner that this administration is proceeding it can't.
.
Good luck to you.

Hate is all the GOP has. No leadership, no plan, no nothing- just hate. You could see it on the campaign trail last fall. The more pitiful the GOP ticket became, the louder, more shrill, and hateful they got. Ginning up hate and hoping for violence is what they do.

Funny, how wealthy Republicans just love to shell out campaign cash for a good long night of hate speak. Don't forget to throw in Sarah Palin just to keep the conservative good ole boys really stimulated. Gingrich, Palin, Jon Voight- they really hit pay dirt last night- ignorant, loud and proud of it!

Palin - Gingrich 2012 anyone??? First Dude won't even need to change his nickname!

Is the GOP a party without leadership and out of control?

"Bureaucrats managing companies does not work, politicians dominating the economy does not work" -- Newt Gingrich

First off, it's misleading to suggest the Federal Government is "managing" the companies in question. Second, if the unfettered market capitalist hadn't screwed the pooch, there wouldn't have had to be any government intervention.

Lastly, Newt is the poster child for failure. Failed marriages, failed policy, failed leadership. If Newt and Sarah are the best the Pugs have got, the party is in big trouble.

Sarah Palin is not the former governor of Alaska. She is the current governor.

As the Palin haters continue to spew, the current VP is still clueless.

As President, he has avoided the thorny details of assiduous analysis on the most critical problems facing America, and has used sweeping, but banal statements of obvious principals, while his appointees actually implement policies and programs inconsistent with the claims of the message.

Did we elect a monarch?

… So we still need a President.

Bush's mistakes aren't "COMPARED TO" what's going on now. They're the REASON FOR what's going on now. You have Bush and the Republicans to thank ENTIRELY for the misery you're facing.
.
Still hopin' for more Righters to start givin' up on all that gravity they're wastin' and head off for orbit ..... A world without them in it is a better world entirely!

Blaming Bush for the economic mess is disingenuous at best.
Fact: We are in this meltdown because of the housing bubble caused by fannie mae and freddie mac aka Barney Frank slush fund.
Fact: The Bush white house tried to warn the banking comittee that fannie and freddie needed major reform, see utube or google it. It was covered at the time. And yes, Frank, Dodd, and all the dems and 1 or 2 paid for republicans brought this mess, but they are not conservative policies. They were the result of liberal policies advocated by acorn and Obama.
Fact: You will be able to point at liars, hipocrits, etc., on both sides of the aisle.
Fact: Liberals can not argue against the philosophy of conservatism, so they call us haters and such. Boo hoo.
Fact: Conservative prinipals are about individual empowerment. America was "an anarchists dream", what happened?
What philosophy do you support?

he has no spine and has very weak knee's!
Bow Down Obama!!
Or even better, how about bow out!!
Resign!!

For all those who are claiming Bush was the cause of this financial meltdown, you are delusional.

With the best of intentions, Bill Clinton, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd passed legislation to get more American's into homes. Unfortunately, the unintended consequences of said legislation was the implied guarantee that the U.S. Govt was going to cover those crappy loans and a feeding frenzy occurred among loan providers. Why not give loans to poor people, the govt was going to cover it anyway, right?

This was not an 'unregulated' market, it was an extremely 'regulated' market, in that banks and lending institutions were being told to make loans they otherwise would not have. Bush and the republicans in office tried to reform the system, but Barny Frank self-righteously proclaimed that Fannie May and Freddie Mac were sound. This mess rests squarely on the shoulders of liberal policy makers trying to put poor people in houses they couldn't afford. To paraphrase Ronal Reagan, the problem with liberal policies, is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money to spend -- in case you haven't been paying attention, that's exactly what has happened.

One other thing regarding Bush: nobody's really standing up and proclaiming him a true conservative either. He spent money like a drunken sailor as well. The conservatives don't need 'new' ideas. What they need is very old ideas, like less govt intervention, and reduced spending. This isn't about fancy flash in the pan governance, this is about back to basics governance. Let us, as Americans, do what we do best, which is innovate, build, research, and better the world.

Down with liberalism.

Doug, I'm surprised that ANYONE would mention "adulterous" as if that sets Newt apart somehow. Hmmm, do you remember Bill Clinton?

Lay off the KoolAid. Your comment here about the GOP is akin to arguing that all chickens are bowlegged, yet you only know two chickens.
