Romney is Very Good Looking
by Sherry Mann
The National Review editors recently wrote, “Mitt Romney ran a firm that invested in struggling businesses, made money, and never asked for a bailout,” and described any attacks on his Bain record as “asinine”.
On October 25, 1994, the Boston Globe wrote, “Republican Senate nominee Mitt Romney’s rescue of a business consulting firm was achieved, in part, by convincing the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to forgive roughly $10 million of the company’s debts, according to sources close to the deal and federal records obtained by the Boston Globe.”
David Shuster commented on this in the January 11, 2012 edition of Countdown, “…In other words, not only did Romney ask for a bailout, he received one. And let’s be clear — when any institution lets you or your company forgive and forget a ten million dollar debt, that is a bailout.”
Gingrich Is a Great Debater
By Sherry Mann
If were picking my favorite candidate only by watching the debates, I’d pick Newt Gingrich.
But this time, I want more than promises for change. I want change! So I decided instead of just listening to the announcers, I’d pick the “winning horse” by going down to the barn and turning over the straw; because I’ve found that presidential candidates can serve up a surprisingly, enticing organic by-product that comes from hay and horses.
My mother told me that if I couldn’t say anything nice, I shouldn’t say anything at all, so I’m not going to offer you my opinions about Newt Gingrich after looking through his stall. Instead, I’ve assembled Newt Gingrich’s quotes (with context), so you can draw your own conclusions.
“Either we are going to have to rethink our Constitution or we are going to have to rethink our process of making decisions…”
Newt Gingrich in a speech to the Center for Strategic and International Affairs saying that, the challenge for the United States in leading the world is compounded by our Constitution.
“We need to be honest about the fact that we are transferring from the United States at a practical level, significant authority to a new organization…This is not just another trade agreement. This is doing something which twice, once in the 1940’s and once in the 1950’s, the US Congress rejected…It is a very big transfer of power.”
Newt Gingrich in Congressional Testimony on the World Trade Organization and GATT. He later arranged for the vote on GATT, voted in favor of it, and bears the shared responsibility for transferring America’s foreign trade matters over to an international authority.
