A No-No by Newt, apologizes in Espanol!

Recently possible GOP Presidential Hopeful Newt Gingrich seriously minced his words and implied that Spanish was the language of the "ghetto."

Gingrich, was served as Speaker of the House in the 1990s as part of the Republican Revolution, tapped a video message in Spanish, with English subtitles, and posted it on YouTube.

"I made some comments that I recognize caused a bad feeling within the Latino community. My word choice was poor but my point was simply this: In the United States it is important to speak the English language well in order to advance and have success," said the Georgia Republican Gingrich.
