Definitely taken out of context. It was merely just an assessment of that time period. I think Newt disagreeing with something is a good thing and here's why. Liberalism by definition is a group of people that agree with eachother even if they disagree. This is also called a mob. Newt disagreeing with something shows he is open to ideas and is free thinking and truly cares about the issues because he won't bow down to appease his friends for their moment of stupidity.

@147DegreesWest Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.
Did someone mention Ron Paul? Click on our name - Tea party victory - and see how Ron Paul's policies, if implemented, will kill millions of the very urban young people for whom he unconscionably solicits for his support.
The interviewer asked if it were wise for a vice presidential candidate to run on the same issues Reagan did. Newt says those talking points are a thing of the past, and that America's more fixated on the future.
How you could misconstrue that as bad-mouthing tells us what level of comprehension we're at as a society.
If you believe I misunderstood the video, then it's your job to tell me why that is, instead of some half-assed, no-substance response like "watch the video again".
@IOYB Its so obvious that youre a Newt supporter/apologist. Santorum & Romney are now the 2 person race. Nobody likes Newt and he always lies about Reagan.
Wrong. I have no preference for whoever comes out of this race. I have, however, deduced that this vid IS biased, and that nothing in it suggests that he "bad-mouthed" Reagan.
Congratulations, you've managed to demonstrate the same lack of comprehension that the previous poster did.
Interviewer: "Can (Bush) run on the issues that provided such successes to Ronald Reagan?"
Newt: "No, I don't think so at all. The years of 1980 - 1984 are the past..." and what's deleted is Newt saying that Reagan had done a great job during his 8 years, but now there are new issues, and Republicans had to know what the current issues are.
.youtube.com/watch?v=KwMfGC18tgc..... Michael Reagan endorses newt. Ronnie passed the torch to Newt. I believe Nancy more than you.. This is manipulated.. LIES LIES LIES!!
if u want the news stories that are actually interesting, that seemed to be ignored by Our Western Mainstream media. if u Want INTERNATIONAL CURRENT EVENTS in english, if u are tired of corporate elites feeding you irrelevant facts and calling it news then please check out the stories on CHANNELEDKNOWLEDGE:ORG.. take a look at the controversial media
It's taking his words out of context to push Romney. I am not a Newt fan - but it is important to be as truthful as possible when reporting facts. The caption on Drudge implied Newt is Reagan bashing - which he was pointing out that Americans might not want Bush to run as a continuation of Reagan but do something on his own.
So Romney's a Mormon and Newt is a philanderer. Does any of that really matter? What are the issues that REALLY matter? . WHAT ARE THE ISSUES and VIEWS that DEFINE a WINNING conservative position in 2012? . Can you define it? Can anyone here? A platform the right agrees on that can WIN? YORT I'm calling YOU out, you ignoramus. If you're so smart define it.
I cant stand the Republican establishment. AKA as Bob Dole. Here's an old pervert that used to sell viagra so he could still screw Elizabeth Dole. Should been killed by german bullet.
Lets see - you think that men that have sex with their wives are perverts. Viagra is bad, and you rooted for NAZI's over American servicemen that disagreed with your politics? I'm not a big Bob Dole fan, but i think i like him, more then i like you.
@friendsofallee Yeah, then why is Newt such a statist. Didn't he support health care mandates before he didn't? Didn't he support Dept. of Education? Didn't he support ethanol boondoggle?
Are you aware that in a 2007 interview with a representative of Freddie Mac that he said that the GSE's public-private model was great. He even said that if NASA had the same model, they would be on Mars. Public-private partnerships aren't consistent with free markets.
This has been proven to be edited and Newt has never bad mouthed Reagan. Go to News Max and look up the story, Video of Gingrich Bashing Reagan Was Edited To Be Misleading

@Swampwabbit77 Newt is a statist. Newt has a progressive mindset. He has a government solution to every problem. He's a Rockefeller Republican. He's conning people like you with vocabulary.
Look at what he stands for. He supports public-private partnerships, mandates, subsidies (see ethanol and many others). None of that is free market.
Look at what Newt voted for while he was in office: Dept. of Education, Brady Bill, subsidies for business.
@joepeeler34 I'm 52 years old and have been voting since 1979. I am not some naive child or dumb ass that is easily gilded or conned as you put it. Watch your choice of words! Who would you vote for, The mormon god Rohm, who is about as liberal as Nancy Pelosi, he does believe Obama is doing a fare job, or the insanity of Paul, or perhaps the weakness of Santorum. No thanks, I'm pretty well informed and will vote Gingrich!
@Swampwabbit77 It's your generation and older that has given us this system. What does that say about your collective intelligence?
Newt and Romney are both statists. Neither offers any real cuts in the trillions. They want to play around the edges of the same system. Neither will change the unconsitutional monetary system that has given us extreme debt, inflation, and bubbles.
And what's with identying Romney as a Mormon. That you chose to do that speaks for itself.
@Swampwabbit77 You aren't well-informed. You get your news from corporate/state media. It shows.
Do remember that Gingrich turned on those class of '94 members who actually wanted to follow through on the Contract with America? He called them "cannibals" and "extremists." Don't count on FauxNews pointing this out. Go ask Joe Scarbrough, who was there at the time.
Why does Newt go for public-private partnerships? They are contrary to free markets. They are progressive ideas?
@Swampwabbit77 Why did Newt call the GSE's (Freddie/Fannie) model of public-private partnerships ideal in an interview with a media relation's person at Freddie Mac in April 2007? He said that if NASA had that model, they would be on Mars. MARS! Can we send Gingrich there.
Gingrich supported the health care mandate before he did. Same with climate change legislation. He got payed money to set up think tanks that advocated for things like ethanol subsidies and a health care mandate.
@Swampwabbit77 The problem with your generation is that you have been brainwashed into thinking that the D/R party establishments are all that different. They aren't. They just play around the edges of a New Deal/Progressive era structure. Why would you think that Newt opposes that basic structure given that his admitted favorite presidents of the 20th century were Wilson and FDR? He's a statist.
Gingrich hi-jacks the language of free markets in the service of enlarging the central government
You have the exact same foreign policy as Obama. He believes in nation-building. He believes in propping up tyrants in the M.E. that do the bidding of U.S. govt. He believes in foreign-aid. He thinks that the U.S. govt. should police the world.
Your ideas on foreign policy are much closer to Obama's than Paul's.
Paul's ideas of trade, travel, and non-interventionism are the traditional conservative positions. Neo-cons are leftists.
@Swampwabbit77 You've been voting since 1979? That explains the mess we are in.
Gingrich is corrupt. He is the only House speaker in history to be brought up on ethics charges. His own party turned against him. They called him erratic and unreliable. He was and is.
You are only listening to his current rhetoric. I can show you rhetoric from different periods that is the exact opposite. He's running in an R primary. It's just rhetoric. You are being conned......again!!
@Swampwabbit77 Newt, as president, wants power to impeach judges for "unamerican" verdicts. Did you know that? The internet is a great unregulated news source mostly used by the young, that is why Ron Paul is so favoured by the young, whereas everyone else who gets their news on Fox and CNN know very little about Dr. Paul, for obvious reasons of bias from the media. Be a part of the solution, not the problem.
@EPIIIX Newt my friend is the solution,and to state that my 52 years of life has taught me nothing,is an insult to me.May I remind you again,that your precious Dr Paul is a direct threat to Israel,bar none.His radical ideas are a threat to the United States,bar none.I have been voting since 1979 and I am fully capable to discern the truth from those of lies, which Ron Paul and the mormon god Rohm are spreading with the help of those who support them.The young? Are naive! I am not!
@Swampwabbit77 direct threat to israel? a country so cheap as to make the usa fight a war they are more than capable of fighting themselves? at the cost of our kids lives? our military presence worldwide is a catalyst for war! Paul gets more support from active duty military than all other candidates combined. If you are fully capable of discerning truth from those of lies then start doing it. "The fool thinks himself to be wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool." -William Shakespeare
@EPIIIX It didn't take long for you to show your true character. It seems that you are the misguided one. And I'll not address you again, your kind are inherently hopeless!
@Swampwabbit77 If you were well informed and voting for a Republican you must be worth 13 million in assest and have an income of a million or more. I say that because the Republican party defends those interests, and being well informed you would know that. If you don't fall into such an economic category, and voting Republican, you may not be as informed as you think..
@JTheTeach It's something how complete strangers think they know someone,it makes them look foolish and close minded. I'm very well informed.Enough to say that Newt Gingrich will be your next president.How's that for informed.And who would you vote for? Ron Paul's insanity,The Mormon god Rohm,no better that Obama,Santorum, to weak,nice guy. Obama? He's an imbecile.Find another class to preach too,your failing here.The Libitarian's, Ind, Libs, propelled Obama to a win,big failure teach
The Drudge Report reminds its readers that it is often selected as a "fair and balanced" news aggregate site by its media peers. Someone should ask Matt why, in the span of 24 hours, I have counted no less than 14 negative headline links to stories attacking Newt Gingrich on the site. Matt got his big break in the '90's with the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal, using Newt and the Republican impeach efforts as traffic drivers (money). Now, he's doing the same thing to Newt. His bias is obvious.
@Big3News The reason so many people are attacking Newt is because he's a liar who'll say whatever he thinks the people listening to him at the time want to hear. If calling a liar a liar means someone isn't "fair and balanced" these days, then this country is in more serious trouble than I thought. (I'll add that I don't consider Drudge Report fair and balanced either but that's a different argument)
@babybirdhome Again, I'm not trying to get into the "merits" of Newt as a viable candidate. The point of the video in question is Newt's relationship with Reagan and his legacy and the fact it was linked by The Drudge Report. Most of this material has been out in the public for years. Yet, Matt Drudge chooses to feature it on the day of the last big debate in Florida? Sadly, the Drudge Report has an agenda, just like MSNBC, CNN, etc. The argument is the fairness of the coverage.
@Big3News Why shouldn't Newt's record be exposed. That a very small number of Americans were aware of these past statements is why they should be exposed.
How many people that the Contract with America wasn't a threat to the establishment? How many remember Newt identifying those class of '94 representatives that wanted to actually cut the government as "extremists" and "cannibals?"
It's always about rhetoric with Newt. Behind the mask he is a Rockefeller Republican (RINO).
@babybirdhome Linking to a video that allegedly exposes Newt as "bad-mouthing" Reagan is hardly "calling a liar a liar." If any politician agrees with their party leadership 100% in lockstep, we have serious problems in this country. Look at what happened during the Bush years and the Congressional Republicans went right along with the budget deficits. Independent-thinking, even in organized parties, is desperately desirable and needed for our citizens!
@Big3News Sorry, I wasn't saying that linking this particular video was calling a liar a liar, I was speaking more in general terms regarding the 14-ish stories critical of him being posted (and I assumed the implication that Drudge wasn't the only one posting articles critical of him). I agree with you about the 100% lockstep thinking-- that's dangerous in either party. There's a reason we have many representatives instead of just one king. More minds is better for the nation.
Anyone who has paid attention to Newt over the years recognizes that we will say anything that that suits the moment. Yes, he's a great debater because he honed those skills in the years that he was in the minority in the House. But as far as getting anything done, he hasn't shown he's up to it. These Republicans recognize that in a national election that it's electoral votes that count and Newt probably has much less of a chance of winning the swing states than Romney. Simple as that.
@juscurious You are forgetting Dewey - Truman. Do your history resarch. REmember Dewey Wins?!! Well, Dewey was a northeast moderate republican just like Romney and just could not get down and dirty to beat Truman. Only Newt knows how to fight this fight.
So what? In retrospect Reagan was great for Republicans, but hindsight and being there at the time is different. Newt is in a way right, even if past is successful, campaigns that run on the future always do better. I don't see how this is bad mouthing at all in fact it just seems like a political opinion. It's like a republican saying in 2008, don't run on Bush's record, doesn't mean they don't like the record but politically don't think it'd be a good campaign.
@CZZZZZm My point is that Drudge could have easily made this video their headline, but instead it's just attack after attack after attack on Newt and only slience on Romney. It's flagrantly unfair and obvious that Drudge is no different than the lamestream media and their hatred for Newt.
Michael Reagan has endorsed Newt!
Arthur Laffer has endorsed Newt and approves of his tax plan of 0% capital gains taxes and a maximum of 15% on earned income.
All Republicans spoke that way about Reagan at the time. It was only after he was sainted years after he left office that Republicans' made constant praise of Reagan mandatory. That's largely the reason we have never ending blather about tax cuts being the panacea for everything no matter how much it contributes to the national debt. I bet you can find plenty clips of Romney speaking honestly about Reagan before Reagan's sainthood too. They are all disingenous suck-ups.
@Kimjongil3000 It's the constant attacks. Not just this one. Now they are digging up something that Bob Dole said about Newt before the Iowa caucauses, and it's their headline. The night before the S.C. debate they did all they could to tarnish Newt with his marriages, and we all know how that worked out for the media. Fuck the lamestream media.
@Kimjongil3000 Yes, and most of the smart money in the Republican Party recognizes that Newt has less of a chance of winning the important swing states as Romney. They might like what Newt is saying but they also know that Newt will say anything that's convenient at the moment. Winning a few more conservative votes in the states that Republicans are gonna win anyway, doesn't cut it & people like Dole and the like know this. This is why the attacks on Gingrich. He's not that conservative anyway.
That doesn't sound like bad mouthing at all. The country is always looking forward and looking for something new. Running on a platform of status quo doesn't win elections.
If people posting videos like this are the future of our Country, we are damned, you can't watch a one minute video and discern that he is not bad mouthing Reagan, well then your just ignorant...
It's amazing this video was so painfully unearthed only to be so grossly edited at the end. I don't even hear bad-mouthing Reagan here. I hear an opinion stating that running only on the Reagan platform won't get GHWB the presidency. GHWB did NOT run on that platform, but a morph of Reaganism with the "kinder gentler" shtick...
Newt Gingrich/Alvin Toffler 2012! I can't wait to get fooled again by another big government conservative who can talk the talk but will not walk the walk. Whooo!!!
Don't like Gingrich but I didn't hear him bad mouth Reagan. He just predicted George HW Bush wouldn't win if he ran on Reaganism and after 8 years, Americans had fatigue. To that extent he was right. HW departed from Reagan quite a bit and won in '88, and the fatigue factor has been accurate too. Clinton in '92. Bush in '00. Obama in '08
Watch the video playlist titled, "Newt Gingrich's To Save America" by doing a YouTube search: Newt Gingrich's To Save America. It's by Politics for Dummies. It is a great video companion to the book, and exposes Obama and his secular-socialist machine.
....a must watch and read for any political person.
@xWren2 Read Newt's book called To Save America. He is 100% against Obama and his secular-socialist machine. If you dont' want to read, watch the video playlist. Just do a YouTube search for Newt Gingrich's To Save America and you will find the playlist by Politics for Dummies.

@dorbie But the point is, he was saying Bush couldn't run based on Reagan's policies and today he has labeled himself a Reagan conservative, so he is running based on Reagan's policies. Hypocrite.
I am most solidly a Ron Paul supporter, and have no affinity for Gingrich, Romney, or Santorum. However, I think the way this video is presented is unfair to Gingrich. At no point does he "bad-mouth" Reagan, but simply points out that Americans have an obsession with something new and that running as more Reagan would not resonate well with the American voter. There are better and more recent ways to make Gingrich look like the pompous prick that he is; no need to resort to distorting truth.
Oh come on! Gingrich is not badmouthing Reagan at all. He is merely stating that Reagan made his name dealing with the problems of the past, so that a candidate who campaigns under that name is not instilling confidence that he has the creativity to deal with the problems of the future. Everyone likes Lincoln, but you couldn't get far by promising to follow his example, since we have problems he didn't confront and the problems he showed how to solve are mostly solved already.
As much as I think Gingrich is an ass, where in this video is he "bad-mouthing" Reagan? His observation on American progressivism is probably one of the only things he's said I agree with.
@xWren2 I guess you are afraid of zero capital gains that will grow businesses along with a 15% tax on the upper income bracket. I guess you are afraid of growing the economy and growing rich? That's what happens to takers, and not makers - you Socialists just want to distribute everybody elses money because you have no clue on how to create it.
So yes, baaaaaaaaaaaaaaa goes the sheeple whoe are for economic freedom.
Can we somehow "share" Newt with another country to get him out of here? Canada are you interested? Although I'm not sure if his head would fit through any of the border checkpoints...
What BS. He doesn't badmouth Reagan, He says that Bush 41 couldn't run on Reagan because he has to run on what he's promising to do now what was already done. He's saying Reagan is the past (at this point) and Bush has to promise what he will do that's different. This video is misleading.
Newt was referring to the fact that the Soviet Empire was crumbling and the Cold War was coming to pass, therefore it made no since to run on Reagan's foreign policy platform. This wasn't a critique of Reagan's policies at all.
The most telling comment was about the 'future', which is his code for his New Wold Order dreams and Alvin Tofler Internationalism.
He's clearly not bad mouthing Reagan...he's saying Bush can't just sit on his laurels claiming success for the past, and not put forth a vision for the future.
WHY ARE THEY SO DETERMINED TO CONVINCE US OF THIS??
Put it in context! Ronald Reagan was not God. He was a decent and principled but imperfect man who did many good things. The only reason he's so highly exalted is because of the crappy presidents we've had since then. Reagan's last days in office were downright embarrassing, even for his most ardent supporters. We seem to remember only the good.
Funny they say "Obama is focused on Romney" but that's a strawman. Why is the media savaging Newt? Obama is scared as hell at running against him!
It's not so much that he's 'bad-mouthing' Reagan as is the point that he now claims the 'heir-apparent' title of Reagan's successor. This clip shows that at the time he was 'not' in favor of keeping the policies of Reagan around. Newt is a progressive, not a conservative. He is not in favor of the traditional interpretations of the Constitution but would rather see a progressive succession into new policies. Newt, for example, is in favor of Presidential rights to declare war.
I think RP should be pissed off at his supporters. Instead of his supporters engaging in dialogue they resort to name calling and insults. Are you trying not to get more people to support RP? Personally I have not chosen a candidtate.
RP supporters seem to make it more difficult to even get behind him if most of his supporters are this childish.
I watched this expecting that the title was accurate, and I wanted to see how Newt bashed Reagan for real. But that's not what's happening here. Are you sheeple stupid or what? What he's saying is true. You can't run on what ANYONE did in the past, but on your vision for the future. "The vision thing" that Bush Sr struggled with, remember? Had he listened to Newt, Bush Sr could have possibly defeated Clinton. Instead, he just tried to milk Reagan's legacy four more years, and it didn't work!
How is this bad mouthing Reagan? He said the American people are looking for something new. In fact, the question was phrased giving credit to the successes of Reagan and he didn't challenge that they were successes. He simply said Americans are looking to the future, so Bush can't run as a continuation of the past. Man, you guys are really reaching.
@joelseph98 This is not the only time he goes against Reagan's platform. He criticized him in the way reagan ended the cold war, if it was up to Newt he would have probably attacked the Soviets or we would still be in the cold war because he opposed talking to them...
And then he calls himself a "Reagan conservative" LMAO
He's neither conservative nor supportive of Reagan but whatever, the media tells you he is and of course like a good little lemming, you obey...
@manniman82 Presidents are judged historically. 1988 was too soon for Gingrich or anyone to be able to really judge his policies. I just think all of this is silly. I'm not a big Gingrich fan, but this stuff is just irritating to watch. People are all up in arms about comments made over 20 years ago. It's hilarious to me that you're saying the media is telling me what to think. The media is anti-conservative and is bringing up all of this old footage, Genius.
@joelseph98 The media ISN'T bringing up this footage, the grassroots are...
Watch this and after watching it, tell me with a straight face that Gingrich is a conservative (it's one hour long and exposes Gingrich throughout the years):
@manniman82 I never said Gingrich was a conservative. I was commenting on this video, in which Gingrich was not bashing Reagan. We are in the midst of one of the worst presidential Administrations in history and here all of you are squabbling over this silly bullcrap over whether he is a conservative, he sat on a couch with Nancy Pelosi, he said this and that. Good Lord... Our options against Obama aren't great, but anyone running today would do a much better job. That's all I'm saying.
@joelseph98 So you want carbon tax, progressive policies (like Obama), a KNOWN liar (Obama is a liar but he wasn't known as a liar before getting elected president).
You don't get it, America got fooled by Obama because he was relatively oknown but Gingrich has been at it for 30+ years lying and double talking. Gingrich says he's a conservative but he's even more progressive than Obama! Wake up and watch what I linked you before you vote for this guy... Romney's no better btw.
@manniman82 No, I don't want any of those policies. And in today's climate and where the House and Senate will be there will be no support for them. That's what I think you're missing. The President is already pretty well impotent, he can't get anything done.
So you're a Ron Paul fan? What happens when he completely bungles the situation with Iran and they start a Nuclear war with Israel? Carbon tax isn't going to seem like such a big issue at that point is it?
@joelseph98 "when he completely bungles the situation with Iran and they start a Nuclear war with Israel?"
sorry but I have to call sheep a SHEEP. Iran won't do anything. for one they're not developping nukes, there's no evidence for that. Two, even in that remote possibility, they wouldn't use it unless they're suicidal, they would get destroyed in an hour. Three look at the US bases around Iran, Iran is comprehensively defensive, they're surrounded.
@manniman82 For all your knowledge and references, you have master the art of completely missing the point. It's not about whether Iran is a threat. It's about the very naive nature of Ron Paul's isolationist foreign policy stance, and his insistence that we brought about 9/11 and the apparent belief that everyone who hates us hates us because of something we did to them.
We have who we have. You can pick any of the GOP candidates and torpedo them over something. We need to replace Obama.
@joelseph98 "his insistence that we brought about 9/11"
err no he doesn't say that. What he's saying (and proven by expert studies and CIA analysis) is that our bases around the world is the perfect recruiting tool for terrorists (including those that did 9/11). You're the naive opne, RP's position is backed by CIa analysis, the 9/11 report and studies on the motives of terrorism. What, you think we got attacked because "we're free" or because we're "infidels"? LMAO
@joelseph98 about nation building: much of the budget for nation building is under the state department budget, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan has cost us 1.4 triilions! Why? Because it laste 10 years, we had no goal except nation building on behalf of corporate contractors like Halliburton. We're the ones paying for that. I agree that entitlements are a bigger burden but the cost of these wars were totally unecessary.
@joelseph98 Originally the cost of the Iraq war was going to be 60 billions. It's now at 900 billions and counting. It actually worsen our national security, Iraq is now under the influence of the Iranians LOL.
Also, where in the constitution does it say to "nation build"? Under RP IF we need to got to war, he would go to congress, declare war (unlike Bush and Obama), have a specific goal, use overwhelming force, win it and come home.
@joelseph98 Also, is the REST of the world "isolationists". Is Sweden isolationist?Switzerland? Even China? Do they have 400+ bases around the world? You have no valid arguments, look at facts, your argument doesn't make sense. The truth is that we're doing all this so that defense lobbyists get paid with our tax dollars, it has absolutely nothing to do with national security. In fact, it's worsened it, we now have more ennemies than ever AND we're going broke...
LOL You said that nation building isn't bankrupting the country, I rebutted that. Regarding that, take a look at this chart for the REAL cost of the war budget :
warresisters . org/pages/piechart.htm
As for entitlements, RP's the only one offering cuts (1 trillion the first year) and offering an opt out option for SS (entitlement) and repeal Obamacare. The others HAVE NO PLAN for any real cuts or to fix SS...
@manniman82 Nation building hasn't bankrupted the country, entitlements and bailouts have. Defense spending was 5% of GDP in 2011, Entitlements were 10%. To try to say the wars are bankrupting us is completely untrue.
@joelseph98 5- Why do you think politicians and their lobbyists want to nationbuild $?Just so you can MAYBE wake the fuck up on reality, look who's on Newt and Romney's campaign:
@joelseph98 Furthermore, the Mossad chief and CIA analysis insist that the Iran IS NOT a netional security threat to the US EVEN in the remote possibility that they do acquire a nuke.
Man, do some research and don't just take politician's words. They can say whatever they want, it's up to you to not be stupid enough to take their word for it...
@manniman82 In my opinion, Romney would be the worst pick of all. Wishy washy, buddying up with Liberals, mincing words. At least Gingrich is controversial. If it weren't for Obamacare, I would say we'd be better off with Obama than Romney. At least he would destroy the Democratic party to the extent that we could elect a true strong conservative in 2016.
Vote for Ron Paul you fucking dumb Americans. (I call you fucking dumb Americans because I know you're not going to vote for Ron Paul because you're too fucking dumb.)
@JRCrowley with a response like this one, gee, how could I not vote RP? LOL All your doing is pushing independents away from RP with remarks like yours.
@petersamonky You neo-cons better be nice to us Paul-bots. Because when Paul gets 15% of the vote as a 3rd party, or at least 5% from write in's if he doesn't run ... Ieither way will hand Obama 4 more years. So you better play nice or you'll see a write in campaign that you won't believe
Definitely taken out of context. It was merely just an assessment of that time period. I think Newt disagreeing with something is a good thing and here's why. Liberalism by definition is a group of people that agree with eachother even if they disagree. This is also called a mob. Newt disagreeing with something shows he is open to ideas and is free thinking and truly cares about the issues because he won't bow down to appease his friends for their moment of stupidity.

The interviewer asked if it were wise for a vice presidential candidate to run on the same issues Reagan did. Newt says those talking points are a thing of the past, and that America's more fixated on the future.
How you could misconstrue that as bad-mouthing tells us what level of comprehension we're at as a society.

Interviewer: "Can (Bush) run on the issues that provided such successes to Ronald Reagan?"
Newt: "No, I don't think so at all. The years of 1980 - 1984 are the past..." and what's deleted is Newt saying that Reagan had done a great job during his 8 years, but now there are new issues, and Republicans had to know what the current issues are.
But since when did truth matter to liberals.

It's taking his words out of context to push Romney. I am not a Newt fan - but it is important to be as truthful as possible when reporting facts. The caption on Drudge implied Newt is Reagan bashing - which he was pointing out that Americans might not want Bush to run as a continuation of Reagan but do something on his own.

Are you aware that in a 2007 interview with a representative of Freddie Mac that he said that the GSE's public-private model was great. He even said that if NASA had the same model, they would be on Mars. Public-private partnerships aren't consistent with free markets.

@Swampwabbit77 Newt is a statist. Newt has a progressive mindset. He has a government solution to every problem. He's a Rockefeller Republican. He's conning people like you with vocabulary.
Look at what he stands for. He supports public-private partnerships, mandates, subsidies (see ethanol and many others). None of that is free market.
Look at what Newt voted for while he was in office: Dept. of Education, Brady Bill, subsidies for business.
He's not a federalist. He's a nationalist.

Someone should ask Matt why, in the span of 24 hours, I have counted no less than 14 negative headline links to stories attacking Newt Gingrich on the site. Matt got his big break in the '90's with the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal, using Newt and the Republican impeach efforts as traffic drivers (money). Now, he's doing the same thing to Newt. His bias is obvious.

@Big3News The reason so many people are attacking Newt is because he's a liar who'll say whatever he thinks the people listening to him at the time want to hear.

@babybirdhome Again, I'm not trying to get into the "merits" of Newt as a viable candidate.

Yet, Matt Drudge chooses to feature it on the day of the last big debate in Florida? Sadly, the Drudge Report has an agenda, just like MSNBC, CNN, etc. The argument is the fairness of the coverage.

@Big3News Why shouldn't Newt's record be exposed. That a very small number of Americans were aware of these past statements is why they should be exposed.

@babybirdhome Linking to a video that allegedly exposes Newt as "bad-mouthing" Reagan is hardly "calling a liar a liar."

Independent-thinking, even in organized parties, is desperately desirable and needed for our citizens!

@Big3News Sorry, I wasn't saying that linking this particular video was calling a liar a liar, I was speaking more in general terms regarding the 14-ish stories critical of him being posted (and I assumed the implication that Drudge wasn't the only one posting articles critical of him). I agree with you about the 100% lockstep thinking-- that's dangerous in either party. There's a reason we have many representatives instead of just one king. More minds is better for the nation.

Anyone who has paid attention to Newt over the years recognizes that we will say anything that that suits the moment. Yes, he's a great debater because he honed those skills in the years that he was in the minority in the House. But as far as getting anything done, he hasn't shown he's up to it. These Republicans recognize that in a national election that it's electoral votes that count and Newt probably has much less of a chance of winning the swing states than Romney. Simple as that.

I am most solidly a Ron Paul supporter, and have no affinity for Gingrich, Romney, or Santorum. However, I think the way this video is presented is unfair to Gingrich. At no point does he "bad-mouth" Reagan, but simply points out that Americans have an obsession with something new and that running as more Reagan would not resonate well with the American voter. There are better and more recent ways to make Gingrich look like the pompous prick that he is; no need to resort to distorting truth.

Newt was referring to the fact that the Soviet Empire was crumbling and the Cold War was coming to pass, therefore it made no since to run on Reagan's foreign policy platform. This wasn't a critique of Reagan's policies at all.

It's not so much that he's 'bad-mouthing' Reagan as is the point that he now claims the 'heir-apparent' title of Reagan's successor. This clip shows that at the time he was 'not' in favor of keeping the policies of Reagan around. Newt is a progressive, not a conservative. He is not in favor of the traditional interpretations of the Constitution but would rather see a progressive succession into new policies. Newt, for example, is in favor of Presidential rights to declare war.

I watched this expecting that the title was accurate, and I wanted to see how Newt bashed Reagan for real. But that's not what's happening here. Are you sheeple stupid or what? What he's saying is true. You can't run on what ANYONE did in the past, but on your vision for the future. "The vision thing" that Bush Sr struggled with, remember? Had he listened to Newt, Bush Sr could have possibly defeated Clinton. Instead, he just tried to milk Reagan's legacy four more years, and it didn't work!

@txnmikea "You can't run on what ANYONE did in the past"
Who's the one calling himself as "Reagan conservative"? LOL
1- He's not conservative, he's a progressive. In fact he's a chameleon, whatever people want to hear, he'll say.
2- He opposed Reagan and conservatism throughout his political career. This is the real Newt Gingrich (1 hour expose on his positions):

How is this bad mouthing Reagan? He said the American people are looking for something new. In fact, the question was phrased giving credit to the successes of Reagan and he didn't challenge that they were successes. He simply said Americans are looking to the future, so Bush can't run as a continuation of the past. Man, you guys are really reaching.

@joelseph98 This is not the only time he goes against Reagan's platform. He criticized him in the way reagan ended the cold war, if it was up to Newt he would have probably attacked the Soviets or we would still be in the cold war because he opposed talking to them...
And then he calls himself a "Reagan conservative" LMAO
He's neither conservative nor supportive of Reagan but whatever, the media tells you he is and of course like a good little lemming, you obey...

@manniman82 Presidents are judged historically. 1988 was too soon for Gingrich or anyone to be able to really judge his policies. I just think all of this is silly. I'm not a big Gingrich fan, but this stuff is just irritating to watch. People are all up in arms about comments made over 20 years ago. It's hilarious to me that you're saying the media is telling me what to think. The media is anti-conservative and is bringing up all of this old footage, Genius.

@manniman82 I never said Gingrich was a conservative. I was commenting on this video, in which Gingrich was not bashing Reagan. We are in the midst of one of the worst presidential Administrations in history and here all of you are squabbling over this silly bullcrap over whether he is a conservative, he sat on a couch with Nancy Pelosi, he said this and that. Good Lord... Our options against Obama aren't great, but anyone running today would do a much better job. That's all I'm saying.

@joelseph98 So you want carbon tax, progressive policies (like Obama), a KNOWN liar (Obama is a liar but he wasn't known as a liar before getting elected president).
You don't get it, America got fooled by Obama because he was relatively oknown but Gingrich has been at it for 30+ years lying and double talking. Gingrich says he's a conservative but he's even more progressive than Obama! Wake up and watch what I linked you before you vote for this guy... Romney's no better btw.

@manniman82 No, I don't want any of those policies. And in today's climate and where the House and Senate will be there will be no support for them. That's what I think you're missing. The President is already pretty well impotent, he can't get anything done.
So you're a Ron Paul fan? What happens when he completely bungles the situation with Iran and they start a Nuclear war with Israel? Carbon tax isn't going to seem like such a big issue at that point is it?

@joelseph98 "when he completely bungles the situation with Iran and they start a Nuclear war with Israel?"
sorry but I have to call sheep a SHEEP. Iran won't do anything. for one they're not developping nukes, there's no evidence for that. Two, even in that remote possibility, they wouldn't use it unless they're suicidal, they would get destroyed in an hour. Three look at the US bases around Iran, Iran is comprehensively defensive, they're surrounded.

4- If we HAVE to attack Iran, RP would go to congress, declare war, win it and GET OUT, no nation building bs that has bankrupted this country.

@manniman82 For all your knowledge and references, you have master the art of completely missing the point. It's not about whether Iran is a threat. It's about the very naive nature of Ron Paul's isolationist foreign policy stance, and his insistence that we brought about 9/11 and the apparent belief that everyone who hates us hates us because of something we did to them.
We have who we have. You can pick any of the GOP candidates and torpedo them over something. We need to replace Obama.

@joelseph98 "his insistence that we brought about 9/11"
err no he doesn't say that. What he's saying (and proven by expert studies and CIA analysis) is that our bases around the world is the perfect recruiting tool for terrorists (including those that did 9/11). You're the naive opne, RP's position is backed by CIa analysis, the 9/11 report and studies on the motives of terrorism. What, you think we got attacked because "we're free" or because we're "infidels"? LMAO

@joelseph98 about nation building: much of the budget for nation building is under the state department budget, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan has cost us 1.4 triilions! Why? Because it laste 10 years, we had no goal except nation building on behalf of corporate contractors like Halliburton. We're the ones paying for that. I agree that entitlements are a bigger burden but the cost of these wars were totally unecessary.
manniman82 1 month ago
@joelseph98 Originally the cost of the Iraq war was going to be 60 billions. It's now at 900 billions and counting. It actually worsen our national security, Iraq is now under the influence of the Iranians LOL.
Also, where in the constitution does it say to "nation build"? Under RP IF we need to got to war, he would go to congress, declare war (unlike Bush and Obama), have a specific goal, use overwhelming force, win it and come home.

@joelseph98 Also, is the REST of the world "isolationists". Is Sweden isolationist?Switzerland? Even China? Do they have 400+ bases around the world? You have no valid arguments, look at facts, your argument doesn't make sense. The truth is that we're doing all this so that defense lobbyists get paid with our tax dollars, it has absolutely nothing to do with national security. In fact, it's worsened it, we now have more ennemies than ever AND we're going broke...

LOL You said that nation building isn't bankrupting the country, I rebutted that. Regarding that, take a look at this chart for the REAL cost of the war budget :
warresisters . org/pages/piechart.htm
As for entitlements, RP's the only one offering cuts (1 trillion the first year) and offering an opt out option for SS (entitlement) and repeal Obamacare. The others HAVE NO PLAN for any real cuts or to fix SS...
manniman82 1 month ago
@manniman82 Nation building hasn't bankrupted the country, entitlements and bailouts have. Defense spending was 5% of GDP in 2011, Entitlements were 10%. To try to say the wars are bankrupting us is completely untrue.

@manniman82 In my opinion, Romney would be the worst pick of all. Wishy washy, buddying up with Liberals, mincing words. At least Gingrich is controversial. If it weren't for Obamacare, I would say we'd be better off with Obama than Romney. At least he would destroy the Democratic party to the extent that we could elect a true strong conservative in 2016.
