Gingrich: Ron Paul's Base Is "People Who Want To Legalize Drugs"

Despite his mantra to stay "positive," Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich took a swipe at rival Ron Paul on Thursday, suggesting that the Texas congressman's political base consists of "people who want to legalize drugs."
During a radio interview with conservative commentator John McCaslin, the former House speaker also said Paul is naive about the war on terrorism and Iran's nuclear program. "This is a guy who basically says, if the United States were only nice, it wouldn't have had 9/11. He doesn't want to blame the bad guys. ... He dismisses the danger of Iranian nuclear weapon and seems to be indifferent to the idea that Israel could be wiped out. And as I said, I think the key to his volunteer base is people who want to legalize drugs."

Gingrich just lost me...
With all that is on Dr. Paul's platform, Gingrich (the establishment hypocrite) chooses to demonize Dr. Paul with the same old worn out rhetoric about marijuana legalization when in fact more people die from prescription medication than have ever or will ever die from cannabis.( which is zero) Ron Paul supporters want to legalize freedom from big government tyranny and liberty! Paul 2012

And who want's to get further in debt and loose more of freedoms just to make sure johny doesn't smoke a joint sometime. Even if you are for prohibition you must admit that drugs are a much bigger problem now a days then before reagan declared war on the american people who use them. Another failed government program.
