How about if it came from his aunt or uncle Freddie and Frannie, which was the point.
A very inane point. Newt Gingrich was a consultant. He owned 3 companies in 3 states. He had a staff of around 30. He was approached for advice and he gave it. They did not take his advice ..also, the money he made 1.6 million or around there was spread out over years and some was used to pay his staff, office overhead. Nothing wrong with what he did..nothing. Our ex military are hired by the govt as consultants, scientists are consultants, there are many in the private sector that give advice. They are paid well and what Newt made was chump change in comparison. America still practices free enterprise....whether you like it or not
How about if it came from his aunt or uncle Freddie and Frannie, which was the point.That is just a stupid thing for Republicans to bring up.
(D)Franklin Raines walked away with $55 Million...(D)Jamie Gorelick walked away with $10 million...Obama recieved more money from Freddie and Fannie in campaign money than anybody ever...then there's (D)Barney Frank and (D) Chris Dodd and who knows how many other Dems.
But here we have clueless Republican dimwits jumping up and down screaming about a measely million or so that Newt "earned"...
The Dems and the media are laughing ther asses off (some all the way to the bank) at the idiots in the Republican party for jumping on that stupid band wagon and ignoring the real criminals ...
