Every time I see Gingrich at the top of his game I sigh and reflect on what might have been. What might have been if the former Speaker had the discipline to stay on message haunts me. Watching Newt take David Gregory apart one senses that Newt was one of those kids you was always pulling the wings off of flies just to see them run helplessly in circles. This video is vintage Gingrich; precise, measured and succinct.
"Nobody's blocking anyone from having access to contraception. No one. The young lady who testified can get access to contraception. Nobody said she couldn't. The question is should a Catholic institution, or for that matter, the Ohio Christian University which is a Protestant institution, which is a very pro-Life institution, which is now being told it will have to pay for abortion pills. Should a Protestant fundamentalist institution be dictated to by Washington politicians over whether or not it can have its own religious beliefs, or have we become a country where it's okay to go to church on Sunday morning for one hour, but let's not actually express those beliefs the rest of the week? This is the most fundamental assault on religious liberty in American history, despite every effort by the elite media to distort what it's about. It's not about access to contraception. People have, people who want to can get access to contraception everyday."
