Boy this is truly fascinating. All of this support for Mr. Gingrich in spite of his failed marriages, accusations believed by millions of American women. This is great. Because today I saw on the news Al Sharpton, Newt Gingrich and Mayor Bloomberg speaking together in support of providing educational support for all American children. As far as I know Conservatives only want excellent education for all Americans if they can be in control of all American children.
They oppose Public Education because the very definition of Public Education allows all children, not the least subject to Conservative ideology. Public Education simply means educate all America children and that is a relatively new idea for Conservatives. They want to control who gets excellent educations by pricing the poor out of modernized schools. They want poor Americans to subject their children to the prices and rules of all Americans, realizing that all children cannot afford vouchers, or even part of the price of a voucher.
I think Newt Gingrich appearance with the hated Black American Al Sharpton reveals Mr. Gingrich intellect. He realizes that as long as Conservatives oppose every political goal that minorities, they will be rewarded with political relevance. I hope Gingrich is smart enough to realize that most Blacks do not care what he says or any other Conservative Republican. When Conservative Republicans start making speeches supporting goals minorities want to be enacted, we may consider taking him seriously.
Gingrich seems to think that Southern Conservative Republicans actual care about winning elections more than complaining, criticizing and denigrating American minorities. Kudos to Gingrich, but he is wrong if he thinks there is even one Southern Conservative Republican that has a heritage of oppressing Blacks since the founding of this nation; he is in for a big surprise. Nothing will make White Supremacists stop believing they are superior to all Blacks. They have sacrificed many lives in support of their beliefs. Newt has no chance of coercing for any reason for Southern Whites to see minorities and treat other people as the Lord said to.

Gingrich: It’s Not About The Base
Email To A Friend
Please fill in the following information and we'll email this link.
On the Rove side, of course he talked about creating a permanent majority. Is there anyone like Karl Rove out there?
I don't know. The model we use is fundamentally different. We don't focus on base mobilization, we are for fundamentally working on how you reach out to the whole country and develop issues with the whole country.
Would you predict that the Republicans will take back the House. No, right?
Why not?
Because that seems like a lot of seats.
They [Republicans] are stronger today then they were in '94.
So 2010 becomes a referendum on Obama's stewardship of the economy?
Not just the economy. It is a referendum on a radical secularism. It is a referendum on an administration that is very left wing. It's a referendum on taking away your right to vote with a secret ballot by the labor union leaders. Ironically, Obama says he's not going to deal with lobbyists, but he sends a message to 100 union leaders. Who does they think they are? This will be a broad referendum on which America you want to live in. I am very comfortable 2010 is going to be a very good year for Republicans and that the choice is going to be between a huge plan, huge debt, huge government model and going back to the things that have historically worked for Americans. I have every reason to believe we will succeed in convincing people this is not the future they want.
So you're not wringing your hands.
No, I'm too busy developing new solutions.
I've got to ask you: Rush Limbaugh. Obviously, Democrats don't like him. Republicans are mixed. Conservatives give him high marks. Moderates do not. But according to NEWSWEEK's poll, Republicans are unified on whether he should be seen as a leader of the party. The answer was no, across the board. What's your take?
Look, if you read the Politico column this week where they describe the White House['s] deliberate decision to make Limbaugh the issue, it resembled the Nixon White House. And, frankly, as long as Rahm Emanuel is down there, he's the Haldeman of this administration. This was a totally Nixonian strategy. They can't defend signing a bill that has 8,000 earmarks, which fundamentally breaks the administration's word to the people. They can't defend an energy-tax increase. They can't defend the other things they have going. So they turn around and they say, "Lets pick a fight over Rush." Now, that's a tawdry repudiation of everything we were told the president was going to be like. It's not positive, it's not honest, it's not creative, it doesn't bring people together. And frankly I think the average American is smart enough to know that that's what it is.
