United States Set to Sell Billions in Weaponry to Radical Muslims

We can all agree that radical extremists of any religion should not be sold high-tech weaponry on a large scale. Yet this is exactly what the Obama administration is going to do in the next couple of weeks. A remnant of the Bush era (so that we don't get red vs. blue hysteria going), the deal breaks down like this: Saudi Arabia floods our coffers with $60 billion ($90 if a side-deal on KSA's naval upgrades goes through) and we sell the radical Islamist state a bunch of U.S.-made fighter jets and military helicopters. The justification for this? America's weakened economy. It seems that our government was right, except for the wrong reasons.

Newt Gingrich Flops on Ground Zero Mosque

Newt Gingrich is an interesting guy, to say the least. He led the Contract for America and helped gain the House majority for Republicans in 1994 and became Speaker of the House. On the other side of the coin, he is "not in favor of creating the notion of gay marriage," yet has run roughshod over the "sanctity" of marriage himself, marrying his former high school geometry teacher (clearly sine curves weren't the only thing being studied) and then finalizing their divorce while she was recovering from cancer surgery. He married a second time, but took that as a chance to have an affair with someone almost two and a half decades younger than him (while investigating the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal.) Once he ditched his second wife, he married the "other woman" and, in an ironic twist, converted to Catholicism for her. In summation, there are many layers to the onion that is Newt Gingrich.
