(34,483 posts)He was very forthright about exactly what was wrong with Newt as a leader.
He defended Nancy Pelosi from a mob of tea partiers (as McCain did when the nutcase called Pres. Obama an "Arab", and took on Faux Noise.

Although the C Street situation is/was disconcerting, it appeared to me that he tried to do what a Christian ought to do to get problems resolved in respectable ways.
Like the rest of the Republicans, he is wrong, wrong, wrong, on most issues, but he seems to be one of the view who honestly does have some decency and acts on some reasonable "values."
Of course, I don't know much about him other than this, so maybe he's a snake with a few nice qualities.

(17,865 posts)for nearly 20 years? His family is a picture postcard for conservative family values.
In terms of approaches - well he did go over to Asia and said we planned to spend more money to defend them even though we spend 3x on a GDP basis on defense of what our allies spend. He should have kicked them in the butt and told them to pony up their own dollars if it is important. If it is not important then ok as well.
