Newt Gingrich's Long History Of Controversial Remarks

Gingrich has a long history of making what some have characterized as patronizing, bigoted or outright racist public remarks about minorities, women and the LGBT community. So as he has taken the lead among the candidates, in typical Gingrich fashion, he has continued to make remarks on the campaign trail that have done little to counter the perception that he's too impulsive and impolitic to be a serious contender for the White House.

During a recent interview with the Jewish Channel, Gingrich called the Palestinians an "invented people," then stood by his words during the most recent Republican debates.
