If I had a voice, I would ask Newt if his views have changed? I would ask him if he knows the 'true' history of cannabis hemp. One can hide the facts, contained in our history, but they can't change the facts.
Cannabis hemp has history. Positive's which go ignored. I would ask him if he has the courage to have a discussion about cannabis hemp? We have had a war on our shores for too many years. We have more people in prison than any other country, basically due to the war on cannabis. He should be able to state verifiable facts. If not, why not? It's time to end the war.
I would ask him if he has invested in 'private prisons'? The Office of President is too important, to allow them to claim ignorance, as though they don't know. I recommend, "The Emperor Wears No Clothes", by the late Jack Herer. The first half of the book, contains the facts. The second half of the book is copies of the documentation to back up the facts in the first half.
It's our history! It's time to hold politicians accountable! Do they know the facts? If not, why not? If you haven't seen the book, it's available to read on line, http://www.jackherer.com/thebook/ It can be used as a history test, for those who want to lead. Do they know the facts? Only accept 'the truth and nothing but the truth'. Opinions can be spun, no spinning allowed. Facts lead to truth. Spin distorts the truth, to distract from the facts. We're deserve better than that! We are the 'We the People', our Constitution represents!

I bet Newt Gingrich smoked more marijuana than anyone in the world, so let his Proposed Death Penalty start with him. He doesn't have clean hands.

I'd say "Off with his head!" but that would require a lot of cleanup.

Nasty Newt is just nasty, and he has been for a long time.

This is the lunatic fringe's "take me to your leader" moment. If there was a death penalty for stupid ideas, Newt would've been a goner by now.

Two wrongs wouldn't make a right. Let's just throw him in jail for a few years, for past personal indiscretion's. Sorry, just wanted a laugh.

That would teach Newt a lesson and then send the other cast of criminal characters in the GOP still walking around to the same place with him.

Great comment.
I remember when Jack Herer used to post all the time to Current, and the community was much more active in the campaign to free the weed.

This was during the time that more people were incarcerated for pot offenses than in the two previous administrations combined.

Oh, that's old news. Don't cha-know, facts don't matter, once they are judged in the court of public opinion, they no longer matter. Just move along to the wrongs. It's what our media tells us to do. Move along, even when they do it again and again.

I find it hard to find any good news in the Republican candidates and those who now support them. Their views speak volumes about their leadership, or lack thereof.

I will never support Gingrich. Why do Americans support any candidate that wants to make American liberty extinct. Gingrich is just as bad as Obama and Romney. My comment about good news was in frustration of so much American freedoms and liberties have been destroyed and I would like to see some good news about future for once again freedom in America.

Thanks, I especially liked "We'are not on train to Auschwitz (yet)". At the rate our freedoms disappear in US we will not need to travel far to be in a place like Auschwitz.

Some good news I would like to hear would be, the war on cannabis hemp is over. Hemp can be utilized for industry and cannabis can be consumed by adults, much like the legal requirements of alcohol.
Hemp could be the 'renewable resource' of the future. Homes, cars, etc. could be made partially of hemp. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kybQTtnJjQA Educate, innovate, build utilizing hemp for industry.
Why propose the 'death penalty', when you could propose, jobs, jobs, jobs. That would be some good news we could use. Believe me, they know! They are being silent with purpose. If they don't address the issue of cannabis hemp, they don't have to lie.
