Video Courtesy of Kira Davis from Denver,Colorado Feb 24,2012 Newt Gingrich said, "My hunch is, since the person who killed them is an Afghan soldier, that that soldier was being paid with American money, armed with American money, trained with American money, and there is something profoundly wrong when the commander in chief refuses to defend the integrity and the lives of the people who serve under him. "The president apologized for the burning, but I haven't seen the president demand that the government of Afghanistan apologize for the killing of two young Americans," Gingrich said, referring to two soldiers serving in the US-led coalition force who were killed by an Afghan wearing an army uniform during a third day of riots over the burning of Islamic scripture. US officials have said the books were burned by mistake and the case is under investigation, but the apologies and Karzai's call for calm have yet to quell the protests that have boiled over in Afghanistan. White House Press Secretary Jay Carney defended the president's letter, noting that Dana Perino [2] apologized on behalf of President Bush in 2008 after a US serviceman shot a Koran.
