Gingrich: We "need to be cheerfully funny about our opponents"

He said conservatives need to be "relentlessly repetitive, because we are educating those who agree with us against the hidden values of the left."

In other words they are going to keep making up crap and repeating it, and they will keep on calling us "liberals" in a disdainful way.

In other words their plan for the future is the same as they have been doing in the past. Clever.

Gingrich, whose current book is titled "Winning the Future," called for "cheerful persistence"

Former House speaker Newt Gingrich gave a PowerPoint presentation to an enthusiastic group of Republican staffers at the Capitol last week that he billed as a blueprint for turning the party's "present, temporary partisan majority" into a "21st century governing majority." Gingrich's handouts also provide an early peek at how he might pursue the Republican nomination for president.

Gingrich, whose current book is titled "Winning the Future," called for "cheerful persistence" and urged Republicans to be "cheerfully funny about our opponents." He said conservatives need to be "relentlessly repetitive, because we are educating those who agree with us against the hidden values of the left."

"Speed, cleverness and shallowness are advantages for the Left," Gingrich, who stayed around to field a flurry of admiring questions, asserted on page 58 of his presentation. "They dominate the elite news media so they will always be able to launch new attacks, have their allies in the bureaucracy create new leaks and focus on analysis that hides their values." He added, "Our core pattern should be 'there is a BIG difference and it is a fact. . . .' We must then take such key facts to immediately illustrate a large vision; we cannot remain in arguments at the detail level."

In other words make stuff up and keep repeating it, forget the details.

But I have to go find where I hid my values.

murder
lies
abuse
war
destuction
hate
poverty
discrimination
lack of education

Hysterical.

:rofl: I lost my values and I can't get up! :D

But they are going to find it harder and harder to pretend to be cheerful as reality smacks them in their evil ugly lying mouths.

there is a huge difference between the two sides now... one lies the other does't.... and it is not the left that lies... and people are figuring this out

God entrusted in him and flip flopped, began working with Satan.

Newt was supposed to do GOOD not evil...damn that boy, he don't hunt for shit.

They control the media and they control Diebold... they want a thousand-year reich, and aren't all that far from getting it.

"Kill, slander, mock, and disrupt anyone who doesn't agree with us."

Yep...sounds like a Republican plan to me.

I can't stand seeing him. He and Hannity and their ilk do specialize in "cheerfully" snering at their opponents, and it comes across as smug, arrogent and vapid.

Keep It Simple (and) Stupid

They don't want to address details because there are none as far as they are concerned. They're all fluff, soundbytes and marketing ploys.

The Sheehan and Rove dilemmas as well as Iraq and the economy are making it hard for them to keep it up as Newt says. But I agree with him though, because if they keep it up, it will become very apparent that they stand for nothing.

Let Bush keep repeating "war" and "terror" and "terror" and "war". They will pay dearly if they don't acknowledge the realities they love to ignore.

... have anything else in theri bag of tricks? Only someone as ethically deficient as Newtie could say this with a straight face:



:rofl:

:D

"Speed, cleverness and shallowness are advantages for the Left" - Got the first two right. How the fuck did you "earn" a PhD from Tulane? Oh that's right. TULANE UNIVERSITY IS RUN BY THE LIZARD ELITE!!! ... don't ask how I know. ;)
