When Newt Gingrich led the Republican revolution with his Contract for America he appeared to be everything we had been waiting for. He wasn't; he wound up being so double-minded and just plain flakey that the GOP booted him out as Speaker - and he resigned from Congress.

Gingrich had a lot of good ideas and enthusiasm but he was a terrible strategist because he couldn't stick with a plan, and the GOP caucus had enough of his changing the plans mid-stream.

At any rate I just caught Gingrich on Face the Nation this morning and he shows yet again why he was not the man to take us to the Promised Land.

The reason they had Gingrich as a guest? Because, in a time when we are being overrun by aliens of every imaginable sort he wrote a book where he praised people who were refugees to this country. It was tailor made for corporate media in that the host could bloviate on how great immigaration is and how much we need it. She spoke of Einstein and Kissinger for example. Well, Einstein was a world famous physicist long before coming here and he had a job waiting for him as chair of the Princeton department of physics. He wasn't even really a refugee - he had been living in England. We let him in because he offererd an expertise sorely needed by our military weapons programs and everyone knew it.

As for Kissinger who the hell thinks Kissinger offered anything useful to the U.S.? He gave us our greatest competitor - China - and "detente'" saved teh Soviet Union from collapse, a collapse we would eventually force on them anyway. I would add that rumors swirled that Kssinger was an agent of the KGB having been recruited by them during WWII. He certainly worked for the Rockefeller Brothers Fund during the fifties.And Kissinger was wrong on almostt everything he promoted.

My opinion is he should never have been allowed into the country in the first place.

We needed Einstein but he was problematic too as he was an avowed Socialist and made no bones about it. but we needed him, as we needed Oppenheimer to run the Manhattan Project despite his being a communist (he admitted on his security clearance form he was a member of "just about every communist front organization on the West Coast".)

Back to Gingrich. He acquitted himself well, explaining there is a time for every purpose and now is not the time to let in refugees. All well and good but why write a book about this topic now? We can't afford to give the Left any tool with which to bludgeon us yet here he gives them just such a weapon.

There are 60 million aliens in America (legal and illegal) which is fifteen million more than the entire population of Canada. We need a total moratorium on immigration, much like we had between the early 1920's and 1965 (when Ted Kennedy changed the immigration laws and not only opened us up to immigration but favored those from third world countries). We do not need any more people now.

I would make a suggestion; Trump can buy Greenland and turn it into a resettlement camp. Make would-be immigrants spend ten years there before coming here. Somehow I suspect our applications will run dry very quickly.

At any rate Gingrich showed why we are forever losing; we have no coordination and no precision of attack.
