Newt Gingrich – Spanish Is The Language Of The Ghetto

Newt Gingrich is now the leading Republican trying to beat President Obama in 2012. Gingrich, in the latest polls, has 25% of the votes, Herman Cain has 21% and Mitt Romney has 19%.

So naturally, the billions of questionable statements Gingrich has made since living his entire life in politics, are being looked at again.

The following gem, is apparently Gingrich’s way of gaining the Hispanic vote, by calling Spanish the “ghetto language.”

With Newt Gingrich emerging as serious contender, some Republicans are questioning his fitness for a general election campaign by seizing on comments the former speaker made in 2007 about Hispanics.

Making the case against bi-lingual education at a National Federation of Republican Women event, Gingrich said children should be taught “the language of prosperity, not the language of living in a ghetto.”

In the wake of his comments, Gingrich recorded a video in rudimentary Spanish, saying: “The words I chose to express myself were not the best.

Now let all the ghetto speakers head to the polls. Newt and his Republican buddies need your votes.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!

  1. Spanish is also the language of Saint Teresa of Avila and Saint John of the Cross. I would recommend to Mr. Gingrich to read the words of Teresa and John. Then, I would hope he would gain of appreciation of the beauty of the Spanish language. Some of my Hispanic Friends have told me that Spanish is more expressive of the human heart then English. English is a practical language for money-changers and business transactions.

  2. I can't believe anyone is considering him. Talk about a guy with no morals. On his 3rd marriage, took big payouts from Fanny & Freddy. He's the lowest of the low.

  3. Soy el Nieto de Jose Baraquiel Calva y Marin. Nacio n los EEUU. Vivia en los EEUU, Jamaica, Corea y Alemania. Era soldado en el ejercito de los EEUU por 22 anos. Nunca he vivido en un ghetto, colonia o tugurios. Soy Calva, con orgullo!
