Conservative commentator Newt Gingrich, in his zest to attack President Barack Obama, launched an attack that might have stuck an unintended victim – the late former president Ronald Reagan. It’s sad that Gingrich would take such a nasty shot at President Reagan and President Obama.
GINGRICH: Let me be clear. I am not a citizen of the world! I think the entire concept is intellectual nonsense and stunningly dangerous.
Nice fear-mongering by Gingrich who, like so many conservatives, plays the fear card by saying garbage like “stunningly dangerous.”
Check out the video at Daily Kos:
Just to clarify (with the words of Ronald Reagan on June 19, 1982 at the United Nations):
REAGAN: I speak today as both a citizen of the United States and of the world. … My people have sent me here today to speak for them as citizens of the world, which they truly are, for we Americans are drawn from every nationality represented in this chamber today.
Gingrich spins like a top, and will find some way of spinning his butt out of this.
