To his credit, Newt Gingrich has since apoplogized for the "Nancy Pelosi / Global Warming" episoide ... saying that it was perhaps the worst mistake in his life.
I'm unfamiliar with the "Van Jones Prison Education" allegation that you're talking about. I'll presume you're factual in this.
Accordingly, if it's correct, it's a very bad mistake that Newt's making.
Very bad, indeed.
Actually, the whole "speech thing" by Saint Reince Prius ... as President Bush-41 would call it ...
is simply John Boehner's "limp" attempt to echo Newt Gingrich's brilliant 1994 Contract With America.
Newt Gingrich KEPT every one of the 10-point 1994 Contract With America (as I recall) ...
John Boehner will keep NONE of his promises ...
and is saving whatever's left of his "political manhood" to spend it passing an "Illegal Amnesty Bill" in the Congressional Lameduck Session.
America is screwed ... our childen and grandchildren are royally screwed ...
and politicians like John Boehner and Mutch McConnell are the "ky jelly" ...

I Googled searched Gingrich and Van Jones Prisoner eduction.
They wrote a joint article about education and training
and other topics related to prisoners. Some of the points were worth examining in more detail.
But I find it reprehensible that Newt would write an article or appear on CNN or any TV show with Van Jones. It is Miss Nancy all over again. What respect I had for Newt has dropped to Zero.
