97. Is He Related to Adolph?
Mon Dec 19, 2011, 04:27 PM
Dec 2011

What a Nazi like statement.

How many people came here in the beginning, from Europe, to escape religious persecution?

Our courts and government need to be secular, it's what the founding fathers wanted. If not welcome to the new dark ages, what's next, being arrested for suggesting the earth revolves around the sun rather than vice versa?

Anyone who sticks with Gingrich after this is out of touch with reality.
