Newt: 1979 Poland in the 2009 United States

Catholic Online interviews Newt Gingrich about his documentary, "Nine Days that Changed the World".

The former Speaker of the House likened the conditions in 1979 Poland, where the cross was being systematically eliminated by the government, to the contemporary attempts by the ACLU to remove this most important Christian symbol from public view, such as the one in the Mojave Desert.

“The very existence of the cross creates a problem. Groups who want it removed are threatened by the very existence of God.”
