That’s How You Do It
Newt smacks down that smarmy, shit-peddling felch artist John King so hard that his grandchildren will be feeling the sting (h/t Bill Quick):
Now, don’t get me started on Gingrich’s past infidelity issues, because you’d be preaching to the choir. Nobody needs to tell me that it was scummy behavior, even if we limit ourselves to the parts that are actually true, because that’s not the issue here.
The issue IS, as we spent 8 long years bemoaning during Dubya’s presidency, that there aren’t any Republicans with the stones to stand up to the liberal media’s shit-flinging. Well, it would appear that there is one in this race. For 8 long years I yelled at my TV every time yet another leftist Alinsky lie was thrown out there as “fact”, not because it was despicable to behold, but because the entire RINOcracy refused to FIGHT THE FUCK BACK!
Because that would be “unhelpful” and all, don’t you know? Also, if we suck up to the DNCMedia just a little bit more, then they’ll finally start liking us!
It was, and is, sickening to watch. For a while there we wondered if we should quit calling them the Stupid Party and go with the more apt French Surrender Monkey Party.
So Hell yeah, His Imperial Majesty loved watching the above. He also loved watching him demolish Juan Williams’ utterly predictable race-baiting and stomp on the greasy, smoldering remains of that liberal asshat just to really drive the point home.
It’s about time that the GOP quit yakking endlessly about how America is worth fighting for and then running away screaming like little girls (with our apologies to little girls everywhere) when an opportunity to actually do so presents itself.
It’s time to fight back. No, it’s way damn overdue. And unless somebody in the GOP finds enough of a spine (they can always go borrow one from a guppy if they can’t find the one they misplaced decades ago) to punch the leftist swine back right in the kisser every time they try to pull another fast one, then the fight is over.
It’s good to see that somebody in this race still understands that.
I’d rather it were somebody else, but we’ll take the fighter at the end of the day every day and twice on Sundays.
Are you serious about destroying the socialist cancer in our country? As in really serious? Then understand, please, that you don’t fight swine like that with civility, at least not if you have any intentions of ultimately winning the fight.
You wait for them to swing, then you kick them in the crown jewels, followed by driving a knee into their gremlin faces and then, when they’re on the ground, you douse them with gasoline and set them on fire.
Thatisall.

He’s stupid but he’s got guts, and guts is enough-

But…but…but… Gingrich should have taken “the high road” and ignored all the allegations made by his bitter, vengeful ex-wife!
To take it out on The MSM is unseemly and not worthy of a presidential candidate!
/Spineless RINO
One of the things that really pissed me off about The Newtster was the way he let himself be railroaded out of Congress instead of fighting back against the charges for which he was eventually exonerated and the marriage allegations that turned out to be either grossly distorted or outright false.
It’s apparent that he’s learned his lesson in that regard and has no compunction about smacking down media hacks.
To trot out a bitter ex-wife and let her vent about what she sees as her monster of an ex-husband smacks of desperation on the part of the “unbiased media”.
At least Gingrich knows that if he gets the nomination he’s going to be running against the MSM as well as The Chosen One.
Gawd, I am luvin’ this! First West, now this clown. They keep trying and he keeps knocking them down. Perhaps the networks in their arrogance haven’t noticed, but we the people love this stuff……sent that one on yesterday when I first saw it, LMAO all the way.
Nail ‘em to a wall, Newt……with rusty nails.
Impressive rebuttal but all the same, Newt just whacked a hornets nest.
If the LSM wasn’t going to keelhaul him and drag the bloody corpse through the streets before (and they had every intention of doing so as evidenced by this little debacle)…You can bet the spin machine dials are right now getting cranked up to 150% overdrive and they are going to come after him with a vengeance.
Any one get a whiff of hypocrisy here? I did, after all wasn’t the Talking heads at CNN NBC CBS et al screaming their lungs out that Clinton’s little indiscretion in the White House was a “Private Family Matter”?

Gauging from the reaction of the audience, if Gingrich manages to get the nomination, this election might turn out to be not only a referendum against Obama but the MSM as well.
I’m sure he’s got a warehouse full of this to hose down any media hack.
As far as hypocrisy goes, who could forget the LSM shelving John Edwards “indescretions” during the 2004 election?
More simple math.
LSM=Scandalmongers
Now that was some pretty good reality TV.
In regard to dealing with the “unbiased media”, I remember Reagan had no compunction about whacking the MSM hornets nest.
Who could forget his “My fellow Americans, I’m pleased to tell you that I’ve signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes” quip.
Media hacks were squealing and crapping their collective pants for weeks after that one
His usual modus operandi was to roll his eyes and say “There you go again” whenever the MSM trotted out the meme of the week concerning his latest “outrageous outrage”.
That coupled with Reagan treating the MSM like they were mentally challenged children drove the media hacks insane with rage.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying Gingrich is the next Reagan.
I’m just noting their mutual contempt and disdain for the MSM.
While Reagan had a more “gentile” method of showing his disdain and contempt, Gingrich uses a more direct approach.
Sign of the times, I guess.
Newt is dirty and scummy… yes. But at least he’s honest about it. I don’t like the guy, but I -will- hold my nose and vote for him against Obama.
And look, marital infidelity, yes. Divorce, yes. But why are these things such scandals? Almost every politician does the marital infidelity thing, at least in Newt’s case the obviously toxic relationships were ended. My father is twice-divorced and I’m pretty sure he cheated on my mother. It was wrong, and terrible, and yet my father is still a Godly man who obviously regretted what he did. We are all imperfect, flawed and fuck up. Any politician who looks clean is a bought and paid for puppet of the media (or maybe the media is HIS puppet).
I’m not saying these things are RIGHT but I am asking the obvious question: why is anyone surprised about it? At least Newt’s dirty laundry is ALREADY flapping in the wind. Who knows what will be dug up about Romney if he gets the nod. You think Newt’s attacks on Romney are bad… just wait until the Media flips on Romney and starts going after him full-force.
As I was telling Rob last night, I hate Gingrich – with the passion of a thousand burning suns – BUT… the one thing I’d LOVE to see is him take on Zero in the debates.
Mish:
I think the problem is that we’re all so mired in the latest revelations about Newt’s scumbaggery, which by all reports is gargantuan, we forget his actual record as a RINO.
Make no mistake, Newt IS a fucking RINO. I wrote this on my blog, and I’ll write it here.
Medicare Part D. I don’t give a fuck if Dubya was pushing it RINOs wanted to support their leader. Reality: “The drug benefit now costs taxpayers over $60 billion a year and has almost $16 trillion in unfunded liabilities.”
Individual health care mandate. I don’t give a fuck which tool at Heritage came up with it. It’s wrong to force individuals to make a purchase by government mandate. And he still believes the government should use force to compel individuals to purchase coverage.
Opposed Paul Ryan’s Medicare reforms as “right wing social engineering” and then was forced to recant. Those proposed reforms to Medicare weren’t even all that radical, but Newtie stepped in it and then had to grovel.
Rimmed Skeletor Lugosi on that couch in a united front to address “climate change,” and was willing to sacrifice free market, laissez-faire ideals for questionable science and defends and still supports ethanol subsidies.
Supports TARP.
Do I need to go on? Gingrich talks a good game, folks. A real good game. He stands up to the media. All well and good. BUT HE IS AS MUCH OF A RINO FLIP-FLOPPING SCUMBAG AS FUCKING MITTENS!
And what makes him worse is that he arrogantly claims he’s so much smarter and so much better. That hypocritical arrogance (“People need to hear what I have to say. Sure I’m fucking Callista in our bed and want you to put up with it, but I’m so incredibly wonderful and amazing, that it shouldn’t matter.”) remains to this day.
I will fucking pull that lever for Zero, before I EVER cast a vote in Newt’s direction. Ever.

Good to see Newt donkey fuck this smarmy shitbag of lying liberal leninist filth with a baseball bat wrapped with concertina wire dipped in agent orange. Bravo Zulu, Mr. Speaker. You’ve got my support. Please please please can we have LTC West as your VP? Or Sen. Rubio?
I think Newt would make a good Press Secretary for a true conservative POTUS. Hopefully the other “candidates” get a freaking clue and adopt a similar willingness to get froggy when necessary. Unfortunately I have difficulty envisioning Romney and Santorum acting like they have a pair.

Oh good grief, Misha. The Marianne Gingrich story was probably one of THE top news stories of the day, and it would have been impossible for ANY news agency NOT to ask that question. Suddenly it is the media’s fault for bringing it up?
Especially a toad like Newt Gingrich to turn this around and make it about the media? Seriously? And the crowd giving a standing ovation only goes to show how morally bankrupt the Republican Party has become to be supporting a slime mold like Newt in ANY way, shape or form.
Something tells me that there is going to be a brokered nomination at the RNC convention, and that the three stooges, “Man on Dog”, “Dog on Roof”, and “Man on woman on woman on woman” are not going to be the nominee. I half expect Chris Christie to parachute into the convention at the last moment to save the day, because there is NO way the current occupants of the Republican Klown Kar are going to take on Obama and win.

I’m officially endorsing Newt Gingrich for President today.
Jan 19, 2012 | Jim Robinson
I’m officially endorsing Newt Gingrich for president today. Was going to wait until after Florida, but see no reason to delay. We need Newt to win in South Carolina and Florida to stop any possible momentum building up for the establishment big government, statist, abortionist RINO!!
RomneyCare = ObamaCare = government tyranny!! Taxpayer funded abortion is as evil as evil can be!!
Newt is a pro-life Reagan Revolution conservative who led the Republican Revolution of the 90’s, taking the majority away from the democrats who had held it for 40 years. And as Speaker, cut the taxes, cut the government, cut the spending, cut the deficit, cut regulations, cut unemployment, brought the federal budget under control for four years running. And unlike Romney, actually blocked a socialist healthcare system from becoming law. And created a pro-growth, pro-free market, pro-jobs environment and extended the Reagan economy throughout the 90’s!! Newt is the ideal candidate to lead the Tea Party Revolution!!
Newt plans to go to a 15% personal flat tax after deductions and a 12.5% corporate tax and eliminate the capital gains taxes altogether. He wants to privatize social security and medicare and eliminate the payroll tax.
And he wants to neuter the EPA and the Fed. Repeal ObamaCare, Dodd-Frank and Sarbanes-Oxley. Fire all of the czars, dismantle the Marxist state and fire if not jail Bernanke. And send 185 federal socialist welfare programs back to the states and the people, and return education back to local control.
Newt will directly challenge the liberal activist judiciary and end the unconstitutional power grabs of our usurping black robed rulers.
He wants to restore the constitutional balance of powers between the three branches and restore states rights and individual rights. He wants to turn government control back to the states and local people as the founders set it up.
These are the kind of dramatic reductions in government that the tea party is demanding.
And he has the knowledge, experience, know how, fire in the belly, and the balls to get it done!!
In short, I believe he’s exactly what we grassroots conservative tea party rebels are looking for. I think we can use some of Newt’s conservative revolutionary talents right now!!
As long as the conservatives remain split, the establishment RINO Romney will waltz in just like McLame in 2008 and he will lose to Obama just like McLame. It’s time to build the Gingrich Coalition!!
FR is hereby officially in full open rebellion against the elite GOP establishment and the Marxist commiecrats!!
Go, tea party!! Go, Newt!!
We are the resistance!!
Damn the torpedoes, damn the RINOs, damn the exes!! Full speed ahead!!
Free Republic is and will remain a pro-life, pro-family, limited government, strong defense, grassroots conservative site!!
RINOs need not apply!!
Happy Newt Day!! Only 366 days until President Newt evicts Obama!!
——————————————————————————–
It is indeed refreshing to see the MSM taken to task. One fact is clear (and emphasized repeatedly in these confines): America needs a hard-ass at the helm. Unfortunately, those hardasses we have identified are not on the ticket. I wonder whether the folks we need at the helm have seen the garbage they have to wade through to get to the White House and determined that they would have no part of it.
I’m worried, folks… There is such a disconnect between common sense and the Government, between the Common Man and the Government that grows wider by the moment. The power brokers in Washington are pulling the strings, and there is no way a true Patriot President could shake loose their fetters to accomplish anything substantial.
I fear that the time is coming where we will have to resort to Misha’s “third box”, and the enemy is on our own shores, in our own houses of government.
Somebody please tell this broken down old Infantryman that he’s wrong.

From a campaign tactical perspective I would rather have Newt running as VP than top of the ticket. Unleash him on a nationwide verbal firebombing tour, let him do what he does best all day, every day, and his personal issues wouldn’t come up nearly as much because he’s not really the one people are voting for. I don’t like him as President (to be fair, I don’t like any of our choices), but as a designated attack dog he’s a winner.

“Taken to task” for what? What you saw was a diversion.
First, ABC — not exactly a “Liberal media” with its Conservative ownership and all, does an interview with the ex-wife of Newt Gingrich — who has his enemies within the Republican Party, most of them being Conservatives who served with him in the House.
Then you have CNN, the day this HUGE story broke about the interview and is pretty much on everybody’s mind, DARES to ask the obvious question that ANY responsible news joint is going to ask.
Newt’s response? To be “appalled” at such questions that most people would expect to have an answer to, given the circumstances. After all, it does go to the man’s “character” and “moral compass”.
Instead, he did the gypsy twist and played the “liberal media” card, which is red meat to those people.
Now be honest, had this been John Edwards or Bill Clinton standing up there at a debate and was asked the same question and given the same answer, would you be congratulating either of them for “taking the media to task?”
I’m guessing not.
It was a fair question, and there was no easy way for Gingrich to answer it. So he diverted people’s attention.
“Don’t look here, look over THERE.”
There was no way John King wasn’t going to ask the question. Even Sean Hannity, if placed in that position, would have been forced to ask the question. NOT asking the question would have been a HUGE story unto itself. Every other news organization in the world would have led with it — even FOX. They wouldn’t have been talking about what was said in the debate, but by what WASN’T.
So yeah, the question was going to be asked.

Charleston, South Carolina (CNN) – In what appears to be a last ditch attempt to halt Newt Gingrich’s late momentum in South Carolina, a fake CNN Breaking News alert was emailed to state Republican activists early Thursday morning claiming that the former House Speaker pressured his ex-wife to have an abortion. CNN did not send out the email alert. It’s not clear how many people received the fake email, though at least two members of the South Carolina GOP Executive Committee, who did not want to be named, were among those who found the missive in their inboxes this morning..

I hadn’t been for Gingrich initially and spent plenty of energy excoriating him, these last several years, for any number of sins he committed against the Republican/Conservative ideals. He seemed a turncoat of sorts, particularly when he babysat Pelosi on the couch.
On reflection, Newt is an attention whore seeking relevancy for his ideas and I guess I take him at his word that he made a few mistakes in his life and he has at least some regret for those decisions. God knows I am no angel and so I have to reflect on the man’s ability to get things done.
Newt gave us the Republican majority, the Contract with America and completed 2/3rds of his agenda while in office.
He now has a new plan for America and with what is likely to become a Congressional Super Majority and a Senate Majority, if not Super Majority, I believe he will absolutely accomplish his agenda.
Say goodbye to ObamaCare the single biggest scam and travesty foisted upon a free people who, by right, ought to have been given the opportunity to read the bill and debate it. Instead, a win at all cost, cheating agenda was developed and it was signed with most people never laying eyes on at least page 2 of this utopian dreck.
Executive Orders Positions:
The following are all within the executive powers to simply order and with the exception of securing the border within one year, they are all easily accomplished with the stroke of a pen and no way to challenge them in the legislature.
Keystone may be challenged in the courts but I think the Executive can order the EPA to approve, under National Security Priorities and it is a National Security issue, as well, a jobs issue.
As President, Newt, could actually have a very busy 1st week or month just on these initiative alone.
1. Eliminate the thirty-nine White House “Czar” positions created during the current administration. The president does not have the authority to appoint bureaucrats to power who are not accountable to the Congress.
2. “Mexico City Policy” of Respect for Life. Reauthorize President Ronald Reagan’s policy – also known as the “Mexico City Policy”— to stop tax payer dollars from being used to fund or promote abortions in foreign countries.
3. Restore conscience clause protections for Healthcare Workers.No American working in a medical environment should be forced to perform any procedure that he or she finds morally or ethically objectionable based on religious teaching. This protection should include, but not be limited to abortion. Existing conscience clause protections need to be strengthened.
4. Respect Each Sovereign Nation’s Choice of its Capital. Each sovereign nation, under international law and custom, may designate its own Capital. Accordingly, the U.S. State Department should be instructed to respect the choice of each sovereign nation and place the American embassy in their Capital. (Israel is the only country the United States discriminates against in this regard. The people of Israel have designated Jerusalem as their capital. Yet the United States retains its embassy in Tel Aviv.)
5. End the Attorney General’s Assault on the States. Instruct the Attorney General to withdraw all immigration-related lawsuits against states immediately, including those pending in Arizona and South Carolina. The Obama Administration refuses to enforce federal immigration laws, and instead sues states who are merely trying to enforce the laws that the federal government neglects. The Gingrich Administration will secure the border by Jan. 1, 2014 by any means necessary.
6. The Keystone Pipeline
Unleash American Energy by Approving the Keystone XL Pipeline. Instruct the State Department to approve a Presidential Permit immediately for the Keystone XL pipeline, a project that will send 700,000 barrels of oil a day from Great Plains and Southwestern states to Gulf Coast refineries lower staggering energy prices, and create up to 120,000 American jobs.
LEGISLATIVE PROPOSALS
Now we get into the details of an inclusive agenda that brings the people(you and me), through their representatives, into process. The TEA Party and conservatives are going to have a majority in both houses.
Let’s elect an Executive who will absolutely fulfill the promise of our ideals.
Executive Summary
1.Repeal Obamacare and pass a replacement that saves lives and money by empowering patients and doctors, not bureaucrats and politicians.
2.Return to robust job creation with a bold set of tax cuts and regulatory reforms that will free American entrepreneurs to invest and hire, as well as by reforming the Federal Reserve and creating a training requirement for extended federal unemployment benefits to encourage work and improve the quality of our workforce.
3.Unleash America’s full energy production potential in oil, natural gas, coal, biofuels, wind, nuclear oil shale and more, creating jobs, stimulating a sustainable manufacturing boom, lowering gasoline and other energy prices, increasing government revenues, and bolstering national security.
4.Save Medicare and Social Security by giving Americans more choices and tools to live longer, healthier lives with greater financial independence.
5.Balance the federal budget by freeing job-creators to grow the economy, reforming entitlements, and implementing waste cutting and productivity improvement systems such as Lean Six Sigma to eliminate waste and fraud. Pass a balanced budget amendment to keep it balanced.
6.Control the border by January 1, 2014 and establish English as the official language of government; reform the legal visa system, and make it much easier to deport criminals and gang members while making it easier for law abiding visitors to come to the US.
7.Revitalize our national security system to meet 21st century threats by restructuring and adequately funding our security agencies to function within a grand strategy for victory over those who seek to kill us or limit American power.
8.Maximize the speed and impact of medical breakthroughs by removing unnecessary obstacles that block new treatments from reaching patients and emphasizing research spending towards urgent national priorities, like brain science with its impact on Alzheimer’s, autism, Parkinson’s, mental health and other conditions knowledge of the brain will help solve.
9.Restore the proper role of the judicial branch by using the clearly delineated powers available to the president and Congress to correct, limit, or replace judges who violate the Constitution.
10.Enforce the Tenth Amendment by starting an orderly transfer of power and responsibility from the federal government back “to the states, respectively, or to the people,” as the Constitution requires. Over the next year, state and local officials and citizens will be asked to identify the areas which can be transferred back home.
Newt gave us the three most important victories of the 90’s Welfare Reform, Balanced Budget and Reduced Taxes. I hope I don’t need to describe the benefits of those victories. They ought to be obvious to everyone by now.
Lastly, there have been some reports that Newt shouldn’t get all the credit. Really? Then perhaps we marginalize the accomplishments of Washington, Roosevelt, Kennedy and ….wait for it… Reagan.
Do we really want to go down the road with that kind of adolescent sophistry and parsing of what happened?
Newt is the guy who thought of these big things, proposed them and shepherded their implementation?
Newt has once again identified what is important to us now, at this time and described how we can get there with our representative majorities. He has done it before and I declare Newt Gingrich was then and is Now a leader.
We should elect Newt Gingrich to the Presidency of the United States

None of this surprises me at all. Of course, I am sure the inclination would be to blame “Liberals” for this, but the reality is, we would wait until the GENERAL election to do something like this. Instead, I would be looking towards those who actually have a need to derail Gingrich. Frankly, liberals would welcome a matchup against ANY of the remaining occupants of the Republican Klown Kar of candidates. They are going to save their energy for later.
Also, if the previous presidential election was any indication, the more the primary candidates beat each other up in the primaries, the more material will be used against them by the opposing Party in the general election.
Virtually everything that Cain and the Right tried to use against Obama came from the fight between Obama and Hillary. That includes the Birth certificate, Ayers, Wright, etc. There is going to be a wealth of stuff to use against the nominee in November.

EDITORIAL: Obama’s pipe-dream economy
President thinks more jobs created by jobless checks than oil pipeline
By THE WASHINGTON TIMES
The White House’s pre-emptive strike on the Keystone XL oil pipeline is a disaster for American workers and consumers. President Obama continues to demonstrate that he has no idea how real jobs are created or how the economy works.
The proposed pipeline would bring oil from the tar sands in Alberta to refining centers in the United States. The project would produce 20,000 direct jobs and indirectly employ 118,000. Once completed, it would enable America to continue to shift oil imports away from trouble spots such as the Middle East and regimes that American consumers would rather not be supporting. Predictably for a fossil-fuel project, Keystone XL ran into opposition from environmental groups and became a rallying cry for greens disappointed by Mr. Obama’s perceived failure to energetically push their agenda. The pipeline project was seen as the last straw, especially after uber-global-warming alarmist James Hansen declared that completing Keystone would mean “game over for the planet.”
In November, after a series of high-profile protests by celebrities, the State Department announced that a lengthy review process was necessary to find a route around the sensitive Sand Hills region of Nebraska. That pushed off the decision on Keystone until after the 2012 election, allowing Mr. Obama to dodge the issue. Congress responded by demanding an answer by Feb. 21, and rather than use the remaining month to conclude the study, the White House punted on third down and blamed Republicans.

Things that make you go HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM…..?
According to ABC, Marianne Gingrich became the subject of an FBI sting operation in Paris in the late 1990s, involving an arms dealer working undercover for the U.S. government. The network said the investigation was dropped but that the then-Mrs. Gingrich had claimed that she could “get things done” in Congress and had sought a $500,000 down payment as part of a $10 million bribe to influence her husband.
Marianne Gingrich denied the accusation and blamed it on an unnamed convicted felon.
“This is all made-up, fabricated hogwash,” said the former Mrs. Gingrich, laughing off the suggestion that she had tried to profit from her then-speaker husband’s position. “Heavens, no,” she said, while acknowledging that she had met with the man.

Oh, and I’m equally sure that it was a Pure Coincidence™ that this ancient non-story got dug out two days before a primary in which Newt is suddenly crawling up in the polls, threatening Mittens ObamaBot’s “inevitability.” Just as it was Pure Coincidence™ that the Tardasil non-story just happened to “break” (i.e. get a fire for effect order, full press court order) just as Perry was threatening the MittBot, followed by the Pure Coincidence™ that every deadbeat, bankrupt hooker in the country came forward with Gloria Allred at their side providing no facts or corroborations whatsoever about alleged, lurid affairs with Herman Cain just as he was threatening the MittBot in the polls.
All just Pure Coincidence™. Their hands were tied, don’t you see? They had no choice! They’d really, really rather not, but what is a serious, impartial, unbiased journalist to DO???!?!!!!?!
Changing gears: About the pipeline. Yeah, I know, you certainly have told us all often enough, that oil is somehow magically exempt from the powers of supply and demand, but that doesn’t make it so.
Still, I remember one time, right around when Iran was rattling its sabers about the Strait of Hormuz, when you told us all that it was an obvious ploy by the Iranian mullahs to drive up the price of oil and that they’d gotten just that out of it. For once you were actually right, but I’m just having a hard time figuring out how that might happen, considering that no increase, decrease or even threat of either in the supply of oil has any effect whatsoever on the price of the stuff.
So let me see if I’ve got it right: Increase in supply does nothing to lower the price, but the mere hint of a future decrease in supply does?

Did you actually read the site during those years? Did you read about the Harriet Miers dustup? The Medicare clusterfuck? No Child (but mostly teacher’s wages) Left Behind? The “should I stay or should I go” waffling on Fallujah? Shamnesty ’07?
And those are just a few of the times when I was, according to you, tying myself into knots defending the guy.
Damn, I had loyal Bush-Bots writing me hate mail, unsubscribing and swearing to never read the site again (a promise that they kept, by the way, in spite of quite a few of them having been readers for a long time) over my Second Coming of Christ Worshiping of everything Dubya did.
If what I wrote about Jorge Arbusto McShamnesty Limp Dick Noodlespine Bush 43 (just to use some of the milder terms I used for him when he pissed me off) was ‘political yoga” bending myself out of shape to defend him, then I’d truly hate to see what I might have written about him if I’d been truly ticked off.

I’ve been lurking at the Rott for a long time, I don’t even remember when I started lurking here, actually (BC might…). And I clearly remember loving this blog mainly because it was a Conservative blog that would call Bush out on his bullshit rather than lick his boots.
Here, people tell it like it is. If Bush was being a fucknozzle, Misha would call him out on it.
Deej, your argument is full of more holes than a hooker’s panties.
Emperor Misha I says:
No, but it WAS the top story of the 72 hour news cycle and for the first time the story contained first hand information from his second wife herself. The fact that he had asked her for a divorce and 48 hours went out to give a speech on family values seems to be rather news worthy.
And exactly how do you vet a candidate? Do you ignore the stuff the media brings up? Or do you muzzle the media — unless of course they dig up dirt on the candidate you don’t support?
Emperor Misha I says:
Except that back in the 1990s Newt wasn’t running for president. In fact, he had just been drummed out of the Congress and was expected to worm his way back into the wood work somewhere to die a quiet death. But now that he is running for the Top Job of the World, his past is throwing back the giant doors and exposing itself again, lest there are people who might have forgotten or never have known what kind of a cad the man really is.
I think that if I hadn’t known before, I would want to know now, wouldn’t you? There are still scads of people in this country who don’t know what Newt Gingrich is all about.
Emperor Misha I says:
And like I said somewhere, this has the fingerprints of Willard “The Mittens” Romney all over it. He has connections to ABC through Bain Capital’s ownership of Clear Channel and their partnership with ABC. It doesn’t take much to connect those dots. Is it dirty? Sure, but then politics IS a dirty game — ask Gingrich, he helped invent the viciousness of it. Now it is biting him on his ample ass and he is now somehow “appalled”.
And you are right, there are no “coincidences” here. Newt was climbing up in the polls and someone felt he needed to be taken down a notch. But when you use a news story like the Marianne Gingrich interview as that means to take him down, it has its intended results: it piques the interest of the public. It has sex, scandal, lies, deceit, and scorn. A perfect recipe for public interest. All it was missing was the blood.
So yeah, it was the elephant in the room, and the choice was simple: ask the question, have Gingrich be indignant (Newt has priors for blaming the media for his own short comings) or not ask the question and have the media circus turn THAT into the story going into the weekend. Ether way, the story ends up with legs and that was it’s intent in the first place. It doesn’t matter whether it was “old news” or something that doesn’t really run a flag up your pole, the fact is, it DOES matter to a LOT of people who might have never heard the story before.
I agree with you though — this is an old story and for those of us who HAVE paid attention all these years, it isn’t really a surprise to us. Of course we are jaded that way. But then, we are really a minority in this country. More people can name the judges on American Idol, but cannot name two of the candidates currently running for President on the Republican side. There are many who don’t know who the Vice President is, or can’t name one Supreme Court Justice. They can’t name the Senate Majority Leader or the Speaker of the House, but they can tell you the entire cast of Jersey Shore.
Gotta run. I will get back to you on the other side of the Lake.

Gingrich is as far as I’m willing to go, yep the guy is scum and I don’t trust him. I do trust that he is a contrary asshole who will do something just to piss in someone’s cornflakes. Further more I trust that the leftists and media will be unable to help themselves, they will attack him. Let his assholeishness work for us.

I cannot, in good conscience, give any of those fucktards my vote. I consider my vote sacred. I know that if my parents had remained in the USSR, and subsequently Russia, my “vote” would mean jack shit there, and that’s why I take voting as a sacred trust. I will be in that voting booth on election day. But I will cast my vote either for Gary Johnson, provided he gets the LP nomination, or I will write him in, knowing that no matter whose ass occupies that White House next, they will all be scum or in Ron Paul’s case, batshit crazy. And I cannot give any of them my vote. I realize Gary has no chance of winning, but at least I’ll walk out of that voting booth with my head held high, and I’ll be able to sleep at night.

The rest of you can keep looking for perfect. There are currently ONLY THREE probable choices; Obama, Romney or Gingrich. Wishing for a “better” choice wont make it happen. Open up your eyes and decide. There are no other alternatives and sitting it out only reelects Obummer.

Hmmmm. Let’s see. Elected twice as a Republican in a blue state. Left office with a budget surplus.

Cut taxes 14 times while never raising them. Will stay the fuck out of my bedroom and my underwear. Knows what he doesn’t know about foreign policy and defense and listens to those who do.

Yeah, I only did it once too. Not going to do that again.
Two words: “former boss.”
I’m sick and tired of “maneuvering’ by Gingrich. The maneuvering is what gets us in trouble every time and erodes our rights one by one. And his insistence on taking credit for the economic successes of the 90s, as if he rode in on a white horse and saved the day…
Not. so. much.
LC Nicki the Resident Misanthropic Bitch recently posted..Really Random Reflections
I see the concept of “trust” of a politician being used as a justification to support action or inaction at the polls. My perspective on that philosophy is that we are talking about POLITICIANS. I have zero “trust” in any of them. What I KNOW, is that left in place, Obama WILL destroy our Nation. While another candidate just “might.”
I dont care for any of these “candidates”, and I damn sure don’t, nor will I ever trust any of them. Others may have a differing view, but I have been burned too many times before so that’s just me.
This thing with Newts ex….., funny how the media hasn’t mentioned the 6 yr marital separation SHE initiated in (im pretty sure) 87. I wonder why? It is reasonable to think that maybe its because it doesn’t fit the meme? Why is it (considering this is a he said / she said scenario) automatically assumed that she is telling the truth? And can someone tell me WHO makes a story the “TOP” story of a news cycle?
Oh and DJ, please feel free to vote for the GOP candidate for entertainment purposes, although I cant think of a more foolish reason to vote for a candidate other than because of the color of their skin. And yes I know you were referring to Christie, a hypothetical candidacy doesn’t make it any less of a foolish thing to say. Then again, you already voted for skin color so this mindset is status quo for you.
I don’t like Newt as a person, but he does know how to verbally spare and win especially with the media which is something we have not seen since Reagan.
Again I am at the point of who is the lesser of the evils. I cannot stomach it to vote for Romney, though if he gets the nomination I will be forced to do so. I will have trouble voting for Newt, but will do so because frankly while he also has some RINO tendencies he does have some plans that will be beneficial.
Look with Newt you know what you are getting, with Romney not necessarily since he tends to flop on issues I feel are important.
As for the things that Newt’s ex-wife is saying about him. She’s bitter and has said long ago that if Newt ran she would take him down with a single interview. For her to condemn Newt with the words that is not a marriage when she was screwing him before he was divorced from the first wife is laughable to me. She knew what she was getting when she got in bed with him.
Oh and Deej, I am alwasy confused when I see you post here since you keep saying you are leaving and never coming back. Guess you understand Newt and Mittens better than the rest of us, say one thing and do another.
Lizard, G.L.O.R. says:
See? I’ve had a problem with that “explosive” Marianne Gingrich interview (which ultimately revealed absolutely nothing everybody didn’t already know but, then again, that wasn’t the real purpose of airing it right before a primary, was it?) all along: Not to excuse what Newt was doing, there is no excuse for that and only G-d can forgive him for it, but isn’t there a piece in scripture saying something along the lines of “let he who is without guilt throw the first stone?”
What I’m getting at is, of course, that as a spokesman for the “Newt was a horrible, horny, libertine douchebag and serial hound dog” (which is all true) line, the whore who was whoring around with him while he was married to his first wife isn’t really all that impressive.
Put it this way: What if it had been John Edwards running point for the Newt Infidelity™ offensive?
See what I’m saying?
Emperor Misha I recently posted..Gabby Giffords to Resign
Just as a heads up.
The meme of the week concerning The Newt is most likely going to be, “Newt doesn’t hate the MSM! He loves the MSM! He’s always polite and chummy with the MSM behind the scenes! In fact, he and the MSM are in cahoots to win the nomination. The MSM really isn’t that desperate and stupid! They’re doing on purpose to help their pal! Really! It’s true!”
I’ve been hearing rumblings of this meme from the pro-Mittens camps and around, you guessed it, the MSM since Gingrich’s win in SC and if it gets any traction at all, the Donks will start echoing it as well.
Elephant Man says:
Quite.
I noticed it right after the John King smackdown when some of the RINO pundits were already criticizing him for being a hypocrite for talking to King after the debate. Apparently the same RINOsauri who had the vapors over him being “uncivil” in the first place are now calling him a “hypocrite” for not waiting for King in the parking lot and shooting him in the face afterwards.
It is to laugh how pathetic they are in their Mittens ObamneyCare worship.
