Newt Gingrich Says ‘Dominant Wing’ of GOP Is ‘Mired In Stupidity’

Newt Gingrich at CPAC Says dominant wing of GOP Mired in Stupidity

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., is interviewed at the 40th annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in National Harbor, Md., Thursday, March 14, 2013. (AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta)

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Saturday that “the whole of Washington is trapped in the past” and jabbed at senior members of the Republican Party, saying they’re “mired in stupidity.”

Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference in National Harbor, Md., Gingrich called for conservatives to introduce “new ideas” in the GOP.

“The Republican establishment is just plain wrong,” Gingrich said. “The Republican consulting class is just plain wrong in approaching politics.”

Gingrich echoed Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) who on Thursday said, “We don’t need a new idea. The idea’s America, and it still works.”

“You’re going to hear a false attack that we don’t need new ideas,” Gingrich said. “Let me draw a distinction. We don’t need new principles … but we do need new ideas to implement [those principles].”

Gingrich’s speech was largely a critique of establishment Republicans and their “anti-ideas approach” to governing. He recommended “all conservatives” read “Citizenville,” a book by California Democratic Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom about technology and government.

He complimented Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush as the future of the GOP and said the current “dominant wing” of the party is “mired in the past and mired in stupidity.”

Gingrich, a convert to Catholicism, also said he’s “excited” about the newly-elected Pope Francis.

“He’s going to challenge the left on social policy and he’s going to challenge the right on thinking about the poor,” he said.

It sounds as if Newt is telling voters who have supported republicans for decades that they can fall in step or take a hike. Careful what you wish for.

  America was not built on dynasties or bloodline – we don’t need another Bush. Sorry Jeb, dada and brother ruined it for you.
  
  Rubio is a panderer, easily pulled into establishment thinking. Our top contenders for presidency have been Bush Sr., Bush Jr, John McCain and Mit Romney. I would say the Republican Party has a problem picking candidates. I am glad Ron Paul brought libertarians into the Republican Party. He brought attention to important ideals that the Republican Party used to uphold like – the constitution, free markets and liberty. Hopefully Rand Paul will get the nod in 2016.

  Nobody picks lousy candidates like the DNC. The difference is all of the left wing factions get into lockstep when it comes to voting time to defeat their enemies. The communists, socialists, progressives, government dependents, and anarchists will get along long enough to out vote whoever the opposition is.

  BARBER2. Conservatives (true and well-rounded… not rhinos) will make a large type mistake if we start to re-examine ourselves too much (and what we truly stand for) by allowing the more radical right fringe to make in-roads where they don’t belong by their nature.

Some four million voters stayed home in 2012, and that is nothing compared to how many are ready to stay home next time. I held my nose for the last time in 2012.

  And there is a reason for that. Just like the human body has lots of cells you still need to rid yourself of the cancerous ones. The same can be said for bi-partisanship in congress. There can’t be. We have basically 3 groups there. One group is progressive and wants to change everything. One group just wants to go alone to get along, so they don’t matter. And the third wants to reduce the effects of progressive-ism. Where is your middle ground? A little more progressive-ism is still more progressive-ism.

I am sorry, but the previous 2 Bushes have tarnished that name out of any political relevance for the foreseeable future. Reggie Bush would even have a hard time due to his last name.

The Tea Party ceased to be a factor the day after the 2010 election when they were no longer useful to the mainstream Republicans. Abandoned with only their own rudimentary organizational skills to rely on they have done nothing but slowly wither away.

Then we have these modern day ‘new and improved’ republicans , that are trying to undermine conservatives even more and turn the ’republican party’ into some kind of perverted
‘liberal republicans party ‘

The T-party went belly-up, with all the poser’s that infiltrated that party.

  SHASTA: Exactly. Conservatives need to unite to and to stop trashing each other in order to defeat Big Brother styled radical Democrats. The conservative movement goes from the atheist libertarians to the evangelicals. Instead of trying to destroy and hate one another, they need to embrace/ respect their differences and welcome the fact that each believes in the dignity and the right of the individual over Big Brother Government. Unite or die . AND live a George Orwellian life under BIG BROTHER .

  I like Newt. I think he did manage to make some strides while speaker. I think he is conservative and I honestly think if he gets to do anything again he would not comprimise but try to get the most he can for our side. I don’t care about his past private life but do care about his ideas and thoughts now. I think he is his own man. Alot of us fell for the global warming BS but I have wised up. I’d give him a chance because I do think he has the ability. I think Romney was more conservative than people on here gave him credit for too. Romney would have done a good job. If you want perfection and someone to coincide with everything on your checklist and also win….good luck with that. I just want Obama out. I want obamacare gone. Maybe the reason we cannot win is because we can never unite and get our message out together. Alot of whiners that didn’t vote at all really hurt what the result was.

  SURE, Dr….
  
  I will assist on one condition…
  
  YOU have to handle any anal probing the patient’s diagnosis requires. I’m allergic to hummus farts.
  
  As far as schedule goes, i’ll be busy trapping the Old Rats that live in my barn this afternoon but my schedule is clear after that.

  EAST: Always found it interesting that Bill Ayers, our 60s radical / anti-capitalist / bomb-making / flower child / Obama supporter , had a dad who was a big Chicago CEO. And that Obama had a missing dad who was an anti-capitalist/ anti-Western / anti-imperialist African . Those apples. Sounds like one hated his dad who gave him material stuff; and one idolized his dad who wasn’t there.

  DR.SIGMUND-P-FLOYD, LOL. I spent a previous lifetime in LE. How perceptive of you.
  Hi MONK, yes we do have another good Dr amongst us. I just noticed DR.JOSE_SILVA is back and the last time I saw him post he was doing his best to work on the original JZS.

  DR Silva
  
  Thank you for your correspondence. I shall be eagerly awaiting your study data.
  
  I do understand your frustration. However I find myself fascinated by the thought process of the common Progressive human that feels the need give their allocution on this website.
  As tiresome as it may be, I do find my work enjoyable and even amusing at times.
  
  Sincerely
  Dr.Sigmund-P-Floyd

  Dear RJJinGadsden,
  Yes, you have brought up an unusual case study; that of JZS. I did receive a post card from him not to long ago from his padded cell in The Sanatorium de Easter Island. His new medication seems to have him stabilized for the time being. I do wish him well.
  
  Sincerely,
  Dr. Jose Silva

  Yes there is and thank you for noticing.
  I am very please to hear about Dr. Jose Silva and look forward to working with him.
  
  I evaluated a patient this morning but the poor chap just up and left in the middle of our session. I believe it was on the Watch Live CPAC story. I hope to get him back in for additional evaluation.

There was a time back in the mid ’90s that I really did like Newt. But, now that we know more about the real man, I can’t trust anything that he says.

The good news is Gingrich, an astute observer of the direction of the political wind, is usually correct about trends; and he seems to believe the trend in the Republican party is toward republicanism. The bad news is he appears to be trying to catch a ride on the breeze.

  Unfortunately, Jeb Bush will be characterized in 2016 as the person “most likely to win”. And then all those people who voted for Romney in the 2012 PRIMARY will also vote for Jeb Bush in the 2016 primary. Just think about all those people who voted for Romney in the 2012 primary while they could have voted for Paul or Santorum….Those people are not going anywhere and will be voting in 2016. The real battle is reaching out to those people and convincing them not to destroy it with another moderate

  SOY, I disagree with a certain exception. The media and the next group of David Axelhole clones will again do everything they can to serve up the next Republican loser as they did with McCain, then Romney. During both of those primary election cycles the lefty pundits announced who they wanted to see win because they were viewed as not electable in the actual presidential run. That is why so many on the left reregistered as Republicans in states where it was necessary to vote for the intended loser. There was a lot of underhanded tactics played. The only way I can agree with you that Jeb might be the next so called leader is if he is the actual weakest candidate.

  Yes, i agree the establishment pushed Romney, which is why they will push someone like jeb in 2016. But nobody forced anybody to vote romney in the primary – republicans willingly did it. I dont think democrats were the reason romney won anything….It would have took a concerted effort and we would have heard them organizing it. Although i would accept the notion that the republican party perpetuated election fraud in the primary just like democrats did in the general

  He has made radical statements that appear to reflect the most dangerous elements of Shariah-adherent ideology that enable the pre-violent “civilization jihad” to undermine the American system, and give ideological cover to violent jihadist terrorists.
  He has been mentored by and associated with convicted terrorists including al-Qaeda financier Abdulrahman Alamoudi and Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader Sami Al-Arian. His parents were pioneers and founders of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States through proven Muslim Brotherhood front groups such as the Muslim Students Association (MSA), the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
  Suhail Khan’s positions on national security, Islam and terrorism are completely divergent from the conservative mainstream. He appears perennially on leftist and anti-American media outlets as an accessory to the propagation of their worldview, and has fought against important anti-terrorism measures such as the admissibility of secret evidence in terrorist prosecutions.

  I like his mind . Like Buckley, he can take the Big Brother statements of the Left and throw them right back in their progressive faces. I like his spunk. He confronts rather than demurs. He is able to be confrontational without loosing his cool and devolving into a pool of inarticulate rudeness .

  Barber, i dont think you understand. The party politics are petty and just a game. For instance, the bickering that Romney/Obama did in the debates had nothing to do with Constitution or freedom. Gingrich is an intellectual so instead of looking to truth (constitution) to solve government problems, he looks inward

  SOY: An intellectual is capable of understanding the Constitution. At least a conservative intellectual can ! The radical Left doesn’t believe in tradition or looking to the past . They are all about themselves, the now, and “change.” They have the permanence of a weather vane. They are rootless and unmoored. That is why they love revolutions and change. Unhinged.

I admire the fire in Newt’s belly. Conservatives need to stand up to the bullies and political goons of the Left. Also , agree about the Pope : the radical Left has ” stolen” the protective mantle of helping the poor BUT the Left steals the dignity and innate rights of the individual because the Left does not believe that those come from God . The Left does not believe in God. The Church offers both concern for the poor while still fighting for the rights of the individual . I hope the Pope gets much protection . The International Left will target him just like they did a previous popular Pontiff.

  I agree BARBER…
  
  Newt carries a little too much personal baggage, and leans a little too Progressively for my taste, but he is a hell of a Statesman.
  As far as the pope goes, i’m excited and leery at the same time because he is a Jesuit.
  
  I went to Jesuit schools growing up and really learned to admire and trust most of The Society.
  One out of every ten of them, however, was a Social Justice knob-job… & that scares the pee out of me.

  EAST: Sounds like the Pope survived the nasty years in Argentina when both the Left Communists and the Right were probably both way off base. I do think that a blend of spiritual and material concern for the poor is the answer. The radical Democrats/ Marxists have no concern for the innate rights and the dignity of the individual. The radical Democrats do not believe in God or the soul. And that scares the pee out of me !
