Newt Gingrich, Republicans, and Their Lack of Morality

Newt Gingrich like most Republicans today make little sense, they have no clue how to solve the problems that many of their positions created. Of course people would rather have jobs than food stamps, but programs like Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and unemployment are the things that people need until they can get a job, and to cut these programs during the worst economy since the Great Depression is moral deficiency and downright cruel. The GOP backed all the lies to invade Iraq, and bullied anyone who didn’t agree with them. This lack of morality has lead to the deaths of more than 4,420 Americans, 31,926 seriously wounded, and more than 100,000 Iraq civilian deaths, not to mention the more than $3 trillion wasted in a war with a county that didn’t attack us, and didn’t have the capability to attack us.

I understand people being frustrated and angered, and I have a lot of reason to be too, but to vote in the Republicans because you are angry could be the worst decision you ever make. Putting Republicans, a group of people that have done more to hurt Americans than to help them, back in power, would be like letting the fox guard the chicken coop.

Republicans who claim to have morality obviously don’t understand the meaning of the word.
