The two 'key characteristics' of people like Bill Gates: Newt Gingrich Video

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said there is a power elite that sees climate as the "emotional excuse to control the rest of us" Tuesday on "The Ingraham Angle."

NEWT GINGRICH: People like Bill Gates have two key characteristics: They're religious fanatics on behalf of a series of values that are weird, and they're hypocrites.

It's a classic example.
