YOU HAVE TO LISTEN CLOSE
NEWT'S DISSING THE MILITARY The words
floe like honey from his lips. HE EXPLAINS WHY
HE WOULD NOT BE A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE US MILITARY AND NATIONAL GUARD PROTECTING THE BORDER. I would have missed it
had it not been for my friend Lynne in Vermont, whose son is in the military.
She was highly offended that Newt would say the Military could be corrupted by
the Drug Cartels. I am sharing with you what Newt told Bill O'Reilly last
night. Not a good start for a person that wants to be Commander in Chief of US
Military. As Commander in Chief would he require the military to be drug tested
if assigned close to a drug related area?
Bill O'Reilly Questions Newt Gingrich on Border
Fence and Illegal Immigration
All right, let's go to
immigration. Border fence, would you put a border fence from Brownsville in San
Diego if you were president?
GINGRICH: Yes.
O'REILLY: Ok.
GINGRICH: Absolutely.
O'REILLY: Would you move the National Guard down to the
border in certain precincts that are dangerous and would put the U.S. National
Guard to back up the border.
GINGRICH: Sure, I would use whatever -- look I would use
whatever resources we needed to. I've said, you know 23,000 Department of
Homeland Security employees in the Washington D.C. area. I'd move half of them
to Texas, New Mexico and Arizona if we need the manpower.
O'REILLY: Well, that would just frighten the people not
to come here because they'll being the federal employees. I mean, President
Bush did not want to --
GINGRICH: I would be willing to use --
HERE'S Where NEWT STEPS IN IT...
I
would be willing to reinforce, there's a profound reason to not get the
military too close the drug dealing because of its enormous potential for
corruption. But I think as
reinforcement for local sheriffs, as reinforcement for local law enforcement
and for the border patrol you certainly would use whatever level of military
you use to make sure we had overwhelming power.
