Gingrich: Pelosi Poor Leader on Security

While in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Newt Gingrich rightly critiqued potential Democratic Leader Pelosi while talking about the need for a serious and sensible approach to the security of the 21st century.

Lancaster Online: Gingrich rallies GOP on security issues

“A victory for (House Minority Leader Nancy) Pelosi and a victory for Casey is a victory which will lead ... inevitably to a world in which Hugo Chavez buys Iranian-made missiles of North Korean design and (Iran) probably supplies North Korean nuclear warheads for Venezuela,” he said.


As Gingrich has repeated in the past, a San Franciscan congresswoman would be ill suited to lead the most powerful legislature in the world. It makes little sense to allow a body representative of the United States populace to be governed by values that are consistently out of the mainstream. As a previous Speaker of the House, Gingrich knows the seriousness involved in approaching such issues as national security and foreign policy. Especially when considered with the Newt-described "third world war," serious approaches to real security problems are necessary for effective policy.
