Newt Gingrich on terrorism.

Have you seen this video?

http://edition.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/08/08/gingrich/index.html#cnnSTCVideo

It is from August 7, 2007.  At a National Press Club event, Newt Gingrich responds to a question about terrorism.  I think he hits the nail on the head.
Islamic sex dolls.  Do they blow themselves up?

Right on target.  Its sad that no one will listen to him.  My views on the WOT and Islam are, well, I would probably offend many if I listed my views, so I will keep them to myself.

I was very impressed at about 4:50 in to the thing.

My synopsis:  We've GOT to win the WoT immediately.  Between 1941-45, we defeated Fascist Italy and Germany, and Imperial Japan.  In the last 7 years, we can't even put the beat down on Afghanistan and Iraq.  To all parties concerned with civil liberties... consider where our liberties will disappear to if terrorists nuke one of our cities.  We will collectively wish them away to the great beaurocrat in the sky, never to return until American Revolution #2.  We must thoroughly stomp our enemy into dust.
"But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist."
