Writes John Marino:
"Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Albania, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Tunisia, etc. were all provinces of the Ottoman empire. Are they all invented peoples" Palestine, under that name, was a province of the Roman, Byzantine, various Arab, and the Turkish empires. The people of this province were always called Palestinians. The Jews didn’t have a country for 2000 years. Were they an invented people? the Irish, Scots, Welch, Poles, Armenians, Lithuanians, Latvians, Finns, Czechs, Slovaks, etc. did not have countries either. Are they all invented peoples as well. Newt Gingrich is a rotten sellout to every scummy lobby in Washington. He is unelectable and unacceptable. No sane Independent, disaffected Democrat, young person, or women would vote for him. I also think that more then 50% of the Republican vote would stay home or vote 3rd party. The debate was great. Ron ruled like he does every time. This time they at least gave him some time to thoughtfully answer."
UPDATE from Brad Funkhouser: Newt is also condemned for spreading lying propaganda about the Palestinians. Not only are they subhuman non-people, they're terrorists with bad textbooks.
