Newt says "I won't defend the indefensable"

Saying on Hannity and Colmes that although he supports aggressive action against terrorism, he will not defend programs like the phone datamining.

"I won't defend the indensible."

Said the president owes the public an explanation. "This is a mess."

9. Hmmm, looks like the Newtster is going to run for something!

I don't trust the guy as far as I could throw him, but I live in Ga., and Newt is good with the English language. He seems to know just wat to say to get a lot of people to like him. I don't know if he has his eye on 08, or something else, but I'm positive it's something!!!!

21. I can't stand Newtie either,

but if he is dissing his own, you KNOW the party is over. Repukes will flock to his side (remember his contract ON America koolaid?) and he WILL be elected, even without Diebold.

Newtie has NO-ONE's but his own survival at heart.....but I gotta say, compared to chimpy, he looks like St. Peter.

25. Oh I agree with THAT comparison! Of course, so do my 3 dogs!

Newt is a fairly charismatic guy, and he does a superb job of speaking compared to Shrub! My biggest problem with him is that he's closer (if that's possible) to big business than Shrub.

11. "Impossible to defend differences in what they're saying. Iand doing"

Edited on Thu May-11-06 08:40 PM by Armstead

Hannity still full of ther Koolaid.

Newt's hedging a bit now. Saying the program isn't the problem, but they are not being honest about it.

But at least he took one foot out of the Dark Side.

17. Hannity's hairline is too low

27. Because it's a finger in the wind assessment

Newt's at least as much a twisted sociopath as anyone in the administration. You probably wouldn't be able to tell a Gingrich presidency apart from Bush's, except that Newt is uglier.
