    Newt calls the war in Iraq 'phony'...

    The potential GOP presidential candidate told attendees of the National Conservative Student Conference that "We’re about to enter the seventh year of this phony war…and we’re losing."

    Yes, but the simple implication from the article isn't quite what he meant.

    See for yourself:

    The link doesn't mention Iraq, at all. The only way you can claim he says the Iraq war is 'phony' is if you provide evidence that he has said Iraq is part of the war on terror.

    I think Newt made it abundantly clear his reference to
    a phony war was that the Politicians will not bite the
    bullet and admit we have a real problem and that
    problem is we have people who want to kill us any
    way they can. And we have the "peace lovers" who
    don't want to make them mad and keep causing all
    these problems because it is all our fault and we
    shouldn't have to sacrifice anything, why, well it
    is inconvenient. And after all it we just talk to them
    everything will be okay.......

    To want peace is such a stupid thing.

    War is so much better!

    To think you can live in peace with the Muslim terrorist
    is stupid. We have no choice except war.
