http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/11/19/gingrich-laws-preventing-child-labor-are-truly-stupid/ Hey, let's bring back the bad old days, Newt. I'm starting to realize, he's a sociopath who really, really hates children.

http://www.addictinginfo.org/2011/11/19/11-reasons-not-to-vote-for-newt-gingrich/ Who could have ever predicted that Newt Gingrich would be leading the GOP Presidential field after his campaign was declared dead only a few months earlier? Well, since Gingrich leads the field, conservatives must...

It was all a ploy to make a Gingerich/Romney ticket look "mostly harmless". Over the next few weeks, I suspect we see Gingerich and Romney take 1 and 2 positions respectively and the rest disappear, as intended and calculated from the first.

No one's started the "flavor of the week" thread for Newt, yet. With the crash and burn of both Perry and Cain, the Tea Party is now pushing to the crafty old veteran. In a world where Newt Gingrich was the voice of sanity and calm (the GOP debates, to date, where he played elder statesman)...

http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/09/gingrich-rises-in-polls-but-has-major-obstacles-to-nomination/ 13% in the polls. Has everybody forgotten, or is it just that the competition is so lame?

"Gingrich, the former House Speaker, said there's a "big opportunity for an alternative candidate," given that Romney has not attracted more than 25% support in most national and statewide polls of current candidates. "My job I think is to reach out to the 75 or 80% who aren't currently...

http://blogs.ajc.com/political-insider-jim-galloway/2011/06/09/ap-newt-gingrichs-staff-resigns-en-masse/ I gotta say, Newt just might be my favorite candidate this cycle. It'll be a pity to see him take a powder, some day soon, I suspect. What really surprises me is how much of an amateur...

having an affair is one thing, having an affair while wife is on the death bed battling cancer is aweful. shame on Newt Gingrich. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/23/newt-gingrich-affair_n_826970.html

Source. *********** hypocrite. To properly mask profanity. (ETA: Not arguing with the mod edit, but before I posted that word I actually did a search for it to confirm that it was in fact allowed in other posts, so... :confused:)

Gingrich Criticized Obama For Not Intervening In Libya, But Now Criticizes Him For Intervening In Libya Is that clear enough?

Newt Gingrich has taken an idea from anti-atheist Christian propagandist and blamer of liberals for 9/11 Dinesh D'Souza, and is claiming that Obama has a "Kenyan anti-colonialist" world-view inherited from his father. D'Souza writes: Gingrich calls this: Marc Ambinder writes: I'll say...

NEWT GINGRICH: It will presently sink in on people that, you know, shooting three-point shots may be clever, but it doesn’t put anybody to work. And what we need is a President, not an athlete. We need somebody who actually focuses on getting people back to work. "But I’m not sure what he...

SRLC Straw Poll Results: Paul & Romney Tie for First with 24%! Ron Paul 24% (this matters) Mitt Romney 24% (this doesn't matter) Sarah Palin 18% (this doesn't matter) Newt Gingrich 18% (etc.) Mike Huckabee 4% Tim Pawlenty 3% Mike Pence 3% Rick Santorum 2% Gary Johnson 1%...

"Obama administration 'anti religious,' Gingrich says" At first I thought, aww that's nice of Gingrich to say that :rolleyes:. But then the article goes on to say: This is confusing. If you don't want the government to dominate everything, and I don't, why would you want the government...

http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/08/08/gingrich/index.html#cnnSTCVideo This is worth a look. I think Newt Gingrich is about two months away from announcing his candidacy. He's been doing speaking engagements, and has found ways to get short, sweet talking points out, and on youtube, in a...

First, McCain is polling lower than Obama among Republicans in Iowa! http://www.thecarpetbaggerreport.com/archives/12484.html Meanwhile, Newt dropped another hint yesterday. http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/gingrich-its-not-too-late-to-jump-in-2007-08-08.html Best of all, he pretty...

Chomsky: 'There Is No War On Terror' Gingrich Says War On Terror 'Phony' Well, I'll be darned. :rolleyes:

I don't know whether to applaud his honesty or puke all over his hypocrisy. Newt Gingrich has admitted having an affair, even while he was trying to hound Bill Clinton from office for the same offense. His excuse? The usual. Clinton was sitting in front of a judge when he denied it...

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20050511/ap_on_go_co/clinton_gingrich How polarized are we, really?

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich defended Congress' actions in the Terri Schiavo case. He said he thinks Schiavo will have a lasting impact on America. "I think you're going to find that the underlying impact of this is going to be greater anger at judges and greater anger at a...

God help me! Please! I am reading the recent words of arch-conservative Citizen Newt Gingrich and I am finding myself AGREEing with him about the current strategy in Iraq. From MSNBC article "Gingrich Dissents on Iraq": Gingrich argues that the administration has been putting far too much...

The whole article here. Doesn't it always seem the one to point the finger ends up being the worst offender?

The thing I sorely miss is the highly progressive agenda of the Newt led House. Before Newt was neutered by the media, he was the best advocate of streamlining government and controlling spending. He was nowhere near perfect but in hindsight was probably doing things that were pragmatically best...
