http://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/robert-schlesinger/2011/11/20/why-does-newt-gingrich-think-america-is-a-nightmare

"The quote came from Newt Gingrich, who condemned the very idea of a secular state. "A country that has been now since 1963 relentlessly in the courts driving God out of public life shouldn't be surprised at all the problems we have," the thrice-married, serial adulterer said. "Because we've in fact attempted to create a secular country, which I think is frankly a nightmare."

His "problems" have more to do with his little-head and not secularism.

I cannot even believe this guy, with his sordid history, is actually being considered as a Presidential candidate.

I rarely post on political matters, as I feel most people are too divided and heated to really connect with, BUT---- I am in shock and disbelief that this clown could really be serious. SERIOUSLY? I would vote for Micky Mouse over him.

No, he does not.

He says that the politicians ("we") have attempted (not succeeded) to make America a nightmare.

I am, by all means, no sympathizer of  Newt Gingrich, but changing his words to attack him is dirty and unacceptable.

Would 'sordid history' include things like associating with convicted terrorists, or calling a hateful racist preacher man who preached "god damn America" your spiritual advisor?

And does a sordid history really matter to people...

I understand that the media failed to do its job in vetting Barack Obama, but by now even you should have heard of Bill Ayers

Although never convicted of any crime, he told the New York Times in September 2001, "I don't regret setting bombs...I feel we didn't do enough."

Thats not a convicted terrorist. Which is why I asked only about the convicted part.

So the presidents friends bombed America, Michelle stated that she wasnt proud of America before Obama was elected, his spiritual advisor preached racial hatred and hate for America...

And Newt Gingrich is being accused of what exactly

Despite the newly released records, there’s still no evidence of a deep or strong "friendship" with Ayers, a former radical anti-war protester whose actions in the 1960s and ’70s Obama has called "detestable" and "despicable."

Why are we derailing to Obama on a Gingrich thread? Is Gingrich so impossible to defend that the thread has to be derailed?

Just asking about a specific point that was in error, Hill.

There is no thread to derail, since the OP either lied about what NG said, or his kindergarten reading skills couldnt cope with the third grade writing.

He's evidently impossible for Sanity, SpanishHat and Wilbur to defend, isn't he?

(Maybe they're hoping nobody will ask why calling America a "nightmare" is any better than calling Americans "lazy"...)

Bush: "Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over".
quote:


"My fellow Americans," Bush said, "at long last, we have reached the end of the dark period in American history that will come to be known as the Clinton Era, eight long years characterized by unprecedented economic expansion, a sharp decrease in crime, and sustained peace overseas. The time has come to put all of that behind us."

Bush swore to do "everything in [his] power" to undo the damage wrought by Clinton's two terms in office, including selling off the national parks to developers, going into massive debt to develop expensive and impractical weapons technologies, and passing sweeping budget cuts that drive the mentally ill out of hospitals and onto the street.
