Speaking at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, Gingrich said about House Republicans, 'They are the majority. They're not the minority.' His words got stronger as he went on, telling Republicans he didn't believe they needed to 'form a 'Surrender Caucus.''
As The Daily Caller reported, Gingrich apparently believes there isn't a 'cliff' looming, let alone any kind of crisis at all. 'There is no fiscal cliff. It's absolute, total, nonsense,' he said. Blaming the entire situation on the President, Gingrich went on,
'It is an excuse to panic. It's a device to get all of us running down the road so we accept whatever Obama wants because otherwise we have failed the fiscal cliff, and how can you be a patriot if you don't do what the fiscal cliff requires, and the fiscal cliff will appear to us one afternoon, much like the land of Oz, where there will be this person hiding behind the machine who will say, 'Raise taxes now,' and if you don't raise taxes you'll have violated the fiscal cliff.'
Gingrich sarcastically began asking his audience whether they wanted to be held personally responsible for the demise of the country. He questioned,
'Now, do any of you want to be the person who stands up and destroys America by violating the fiscal cliff? Do you want to go on one of the national networks and explain that you are so reactionary, so out of touch with life, that you don't care that America is going to die late on Thursday?'
Assuming, of course, that no citizens, let alone House Republican wants to be singlehandedly responsible for the downfall of our nation, Gingrich offered up one last bit of wisdom,
'So my number one bit of advice to the congressional Republicans is simple: Back out of of all of this negotiating with Obama. The president is overwhelmingly dominant in the news media. You start setting up the definition of success finding an agreement with Obama, you just gave Obama the ability to say to you, 'Not good enough.''

There it is. Don't negotiate with the president. That worked out real well for the GOP over the last two years, didn't it. Please, continue to be the obstructionist party. Americans are pretty stupid, but it seems like even they have figured out just who it is that is holding them and the country hostage. I'm looking at you and your debt ceiling antics, Boehner.
If you're ever wondering who is causing the problem of gridlock at the national level, it's really simple. Look at the people saying, 'Do not negotiate or compromise.' They are the problem.

No wonder this douchebag never got anywhere with his absurd campaign for the Republican nomination.

He is still upset they did not make Speaker for the incoming Congress?
Now how did that OUR WAY OR THE HIGHWAY work during his time of controlling the republican agenda as a corrupt thief caught stealing funds to build his own private TV studio with tax payer money? How about the morals of being in an affair while denouncing the President for getting a 'BJ' from a known GOLD DIGGER? Then there is the fact he tried to steal a $750.000 T-REX skull from the United States after leaving the Congress not to mention not paying his Congressional fines until just before democrats took over the House in 2007'this LIZARD is demanding his party nose dive the economy and trigger a recession to punish America for siding with democrats and Obama on the issues involved'how conservative of him to want to hurt this nation.

Yes Gingrich clearly states the teabagger logic that is sending the GOP into oblivion. Keep on talking dough man!

Womderful! Let the tax rates go back to thee pre-Bush levels. On the new Senates first day of business, the Senate can pass filibuster reform. On the second day, they can pass a tax cut for the 98%. sit back and watch the fireworks.

I'm happy to see he is in the HOV lane to irrelevancy' what an absolute dinosaur.
