Gingrich urges U.S.: Get tough with Iran

SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich says it's time for the United States to get tough with Iran's Islamic theocracy.

Speaking before a conservative public policy group Wednesday, Gingrich said Americans should take Iranian leaders' threats seriously, before they acquire nuclear weapons.

"We have real enemies and they would like to kill us," said Gingrich, the Georgia Republican who engineered a GOP congressional takeover in 1994.

Gingrich, attending the Maine Heritage Center Policy Center's annual luncheon, said it's time for Americans to "profoundly rethink" their position on Iran and be prepared to take all necessary steps to safeguard the United States.

1. The question still stands: With What, genius?

We're so busy being hailed as libberators in Iraq and having things go swimmingly in Afghanistan, after all.

[BOSSHOG]

2. No doubt

Member's of Maine's "Heritage" Center are all lining up at the Army Recruiting station to put their manliness where there ignorance is.

3. It's Time that the GOP Get Tough With Gingrich

cause he's just digging them in deeper!

But don't stop him on my account, please!

[kurth]

4. Newt, you go first.

Warmongering whore.

[Tom Joad]

5. He is the darling of the AIPAC crowd, no doubt.

We gotta stop AIPAC. www.stopAIPAC.org

6. Five years of Bush and everything is Bill Clinton's fault?

Newt has joined in on rewriting history of the hunt for Bin Laden.
If you don't want to crush Iran, you are an appeaser.

Just spewing the party line.

7. Sleazebag Newt keeps trying to get his name in the headlines.

As if he has a shot at winning any sort of election. His reputation precedes him.

8. Hey Newt: STFU n/t

[CollegeDUer]

9. He's from my old voting district; the Dem now has his offices!

Steve Sinton, a co-founder of Air America Radio, now uses Newt's old offices for his campaign headquarters.

Hopefully he takes down that thug Price (met him, normal idiot fundie Republican), and slaps Gingrich in the face over this.

10. I am in that district

and we can only hope that Price gets that smug look wiped off his face in November.

11. I love it.

Keep us posted.

16. Gingrich couldn't "get tough" if his life depended on it.

He's like one of those small, yappy dogs that can barely chew their own food but pretend to be dangerous.

[Akoto]

17. Akoto urges Gingrich: Shut the hell up!

How about we stay out of other peoples' business for a while and focus on the problems in our own country.

[AlCzervik]

18. Chimpsrsmarter to media-Stop giving Gingrich visibility, he matters not.

[KansDem]

19. "Get tough," Newt? Like you did with your first wife?

Critics of Gingrich have long made much of the insensitivity he demonstrated in serving his first wife with divorce papers while she was in the hospital being treated for cancer. Nor did news of his efforts to cut life insurance coverage for the mother of his children always endear Gingrich to his family values supporters, but it was generally assumed that his marital errors were in the past.

Robert Scheer

Yeah, Newt. That took a lot of guts...:eyes:

[denverbill]

20. Fat, middle-aged millionaire draft dodger urges others to get tough.

Wow. What a 'leader'.

[hatrack]

21. Why don't YOU go "get tough" with Iran, Newt?

Why don't you flog our own flabby ass out the door of the LCI and up the beaches with an M-16 in one hand and a copy of your latest book in the other?

Why don't you rip open your flak jacket to reveal the milky all-American Republican man-tits beneath? Terrorists would flee in nauseated horror and you could make the world safe for democracy all by your little intern-banging wife-deserting arrogant little shitstained self!!

How 'bout it, Newtie? Are you man enough to take the man-tits out on parade?
