Gingrich: There Is An ‘Insurgency’ in CT Which Says ‘Can’t We Come Home And Hide?’

From Think Progress:

This morning on Fox News, Newt Gingrich claimed there is a “legitimate insurgency in Connecticut, which needs to be met head on,” made up of people who say Iraq “is so hard, it is so frightening, it’s so painful, can’t we come home and hide?” Gingrich said that if the “insurgency” wins, “it will be the beginning of extraordinarily important period in American politics, and in American history.” (I was blown away when I saw this - Gingrich referring to U.S. citizens who disagree with their government and want a change as insurgents. One man's insurgent is another man's patriot. We would do well to remember that when speaking of the 'insurgency' in Iraq.) DETAILS/VIDEO
