Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich declared that defeating President Barack Obama is a "duty of national security" in a speech to students at Oral Roberts University.

"We are really at risk someday in your life time of losing an American city [in a terrorist attack]," Gingrich said, adding that in that context "defeating Barack Obama becomes a duty of national security."

Gingrich also stated that Obama "is incapable of defending the United States," making no mentions of his counterterrorism success, including the killing of Osama Bin Laden.

  • Obama neeed to be defeated for many reasons. His ME policies have endangered peace in ME The media hyped Arab spring is threatening Camp David and set up a military junta in Egypt.
    So, whatever else O has done, he has clearly set back peace between Egypt-Israel. Copts, women and tourists suffer under the regressive junta.

  • Doesn't he understand? Barack Hussein Obama is the only reason we haven't had another terrorist attack on American soil! The terrorists are convinced that we elected one of them President, they think they've won! If loudmouths like Gingrich keep running their mouths about how “he can't protect us from Terrorists” or Santorum calling him a “Christian” they're going to catch wise. So just shut up already.

  • More fearmongering from a line of proven foreign policy failures and morons who still think wars should be fought like it was 1945. And while we're at it, why don't we drag all social progression back to that era too?…

  • We need more intellectuals like Newt. How can we rely on a community organizer to know what needs to be done with respect to foreign policy? We deserve what we vote for in 2012.

  • I'm sorry… What inane conservative site sent you idiots here to say things like “Barry's fourth reich?” have some respect and pride as an American, whether you agree with him or not that is your president and insulting him like that makes us all look bad.

  • Santorum constantly voted against the 2nd Amendment but voted repeatedly to give Penn State pedophile Jerry Sandusky the congressional Angels in Adoption award. Newt loves illegals (amnesty) more than Americans (Newt wants to bring back child labor for US kids). Mitt thinks corporations are people (killing his general election chances). Ron Paul is the only candidate with a plan to end the TSA and end the endless wars for Israel, it all started a decade ago after a false flag attack.

    Four more years of Barry's Fourth Reich would mean an end to the USA.

  • jrcsdude, you DO understand that the military doesn't do whatever the hell they want, right? They follow orders. In the case of Bin Laden, the order came from the president. So, yeah, Obama had a *little* something to do with the death of Bin Laden.

  • Fear is a powerful tool. Conservatives love to scare their constitutes into voting against Obama. Do you see a difference BTW. 2008 and now?

  • And your point is? Three Words—Bush started it. Obama just stood out of the way—the best he can take credit for is not screwing THAT one up like he did the others. Next.

  • Must I, a foreigner, point out that the most successful attacks on U.S. territory in your history took place in 2001 under a Republican president? If anything, isn't it a matter of national security to re-elect the guy who ordered the death of the terrorist who masterminded that attack?  Unless you're racist, I guess.

  • Barack Obama didn't have one fucking thing to do with the bin laden capture. the determination and sacrifice of our military is where credit is to be given. not this worthless president. Newt Gingrich is a douche bag too for the record.
