Lutz, Florida — Newt Gingrich is calling GOP president rival Mitt Romney a "pro-abortion, pro-gun control, pro-tax increase liberal." Gingrich made the comments outside a church in Lutz., Fla., two days before the pivotal presidential primary.

Gingrich is trailing Romney in Florida and has been labeling the former governor a Massachusetts moderate. Now Gingrich is adding the liberal tag to his criticism of his 2012 rival.

Gingrich also went after Romney during two television interviews Sunday morning. He said Romney "has a basic policy of carpet bombing his opponent" and that the "old establishment" in the party is trying to block Gingrich's path to nomination.

Define "fair." If ten students take a test, their scores will be different. Some who studied harder score higher, and those that didn't study much score lower. Is it unfair that the scores are all different? Should everyone get the same grade in the spirit of equality?

#1 freedom of speech. #2 I am tired of teavangelical/repubs who disrespect the Office of the Presidency, who lie, who propose plans disregarding the poor and struggling middle class. #3 I rail at classism...the I/me/mine mindset that favors the rich, that says it is the fault of the poor that they are poor, that those out of work (through downsizing, sending jobs offshore, etc.) ought to just go out and find a (non-existent) job. Justice, fairness, equality...the ONLY American way forward!

Not only has the political circus on the ultra-right become downright verbally dangerous, but the two front-runners have become the most disgusting examples of Americans to be found anywhere...why all intelligent, discerning, and truth-seeking people in their own party have not jumped ship based on their venom-filled campaigning is beyond comprehension. If this is the best of the teavangelical/repub party, it is doomed to implode on itself in November. OBAMA 11/6/2012.

snydergal, You seem pretty full of venom yourself. Interesting how you decry political bashing, then turn around and do it yourself. It seems that both old parties are doomed to implode.
