I try not to make assumptions about how Conservatives train their young…like, assuming that they’re little Nazis-in-training being spoon-fed lie after lie.  But then I read things like this ("Newt Goes Off Message"), and I figure, oh hell. Assume away. Frakking scary.

Things like this make me want to move to a cabin in the Yukon Territory and never EVER come back. There are too many people in the world ready to brainwash the youth of America just for the sake of their own power and prestige. I fear for the children I will someday have-said by one of those "those angry feminists whose No. 1 issue is how to dispose of their unborn children conveniently.".
Wow.

I couldn't get the clip to load for some reason. But if it's a clip from Gingrich, I can imagine how bad it is. The man is named after a slimy insect-eating bottom-dweller. Quite appropriate really.

And yet as furious as that makes me I then wind up stuck in this never-ending spiral of conflicted feelings, because if I want to be allowed to openly profess opinions, I have to allow that woman the right to express her's (wrong-headed as they are).

And I wonder if Newt would be as openly anti-partisan if he were still in office.

LOL...I hear you! The only thing is - way out in the back country is one of the places you are most likely to find those YAHOOS. Sigh.

It's just a written piece - when you get past the advert, press the word "Next" and the article, called Newt Goes Off Message, should be there.

Yup...it's very interesting that Newt - one of the Conservative's biggest stars - is now talking openly about effective policy. And his minions think he's nuts. Pretty frakking sad.
