Newt Gingrich: Health Care Socialist
Posted by Laurence Vance on May 16, 2011 12:56 PM

Gingrich made the case on Meet the Press yesterday, not for a free market in medical care and medical insurance, but for Gingrichcare. Interesting that back in 1993 Gingrich said he favored the federal government requiring individuals to buy health insurance and then subsidizing individuals' purchase of health insurance on a "sliding scale" determined by their income. Now he supports requiring all individuals to buy health insurance, post a bond to pay for health care, or in some way indicate that they are going to be accountable.

Is any of this a surprise? I think Gingrich for president will turn out to be a total flop like Giuliani for president.

And no, I am not exaggerating. In a recent interview, Rudy says he once told President Bush that he wanted to be the one to execute bin Laden. He went on to equate bin Laden with Hitler and Stalin. "Our intelligence ability is terrific," says America's mayor. Really? Our great intelligence agencies failed to prevent 9/11 and then took ten years to find bin Laden. And this guy ran for president?
