Who'd a thunk it? I might have to support him.........nah, who am I kidding? Unfortunately, the vast majority of Americans would rather drive their gas guzzlers at 80 mph, while their children are killed in Iraq.

Political Radar: Gingrich calls War on Terror "Phony"

Newt Gingrich, former Republican House Speaker, called the war on terror "phony" in a speech to a group of young conservatives in Washington, D.C. on Thursday.

The potential GOP presidential candidate told attendees of the National Conservative Student Conference that "We’re about to enter the seventh year of this phony war…and we’re losing."

Gingrich added, "None of you should believe we are winning this war. There is no evidence that we are winning this war."

Instead of the current strategy to fight terrorism, Gingrich said we should focus on energy independence. "We have to have a national energy strategy, which basically says to the Saudis, 'We’re not going to rely on you.'"
Why is there always money for war, but none for education?
