The most important social welfare program in America is a job.
Newt Gingrich
Change is healthy and useful. It has to be fought for most of the time. It's not inevitable. It takes real leadership and real effort.

Newt Gingrich

Newt Gingrich
We have to pull back, and we have to recognize it.
Newt Gingrich
It is perfectly American to be wrong.
Newt Gingrich
Go get a job after you take a bath.
Newt Gingrich
It is time to know more about would-be terrorists, to profile for terrorists and to actively discriminate based on suspicious terrorist information.
Newt Gingrich
GOP represents people, but Dems communicate better.
Newt Gingrich
I'm old enough, I remember when Richard Nixon had the election stolen in 1960. And no serious historian doubts that Illinois and Texas were stolen.
