Started out worth $10,000 and left worth 7 million. Wow and all that on a Congressman’s salary /s
He made his money, as you have been apprised, writing books. He's still writing books - best sellers.
The 'pay' is good for good writers - and Newt - DR. Gingrich - has a brilliant, educated mind.
and he scares the bejeebers out the REAL Insiders - the Establishment Ivy League Republican Cabal - that have been running all things republican for many decades...the ONLY president in the last 40 years NOT a card carrying member of the Establishment Cabal was Reagan.
Newt is a Reaganite - was carrying out Reaganomics when in office {which is how he balanced the budget, historically, 4 years in row, for one example.] The Establishment Cabal and the Media and the Socialists see now, as they did in the mid-90's, a NON-insider who threatens their very existence as the rulers of the party who have installed their Ivy Leagers for decades.
The REAL INSIDER is is their boy Romney, whose otherwise plastic face is now registering the look of a deer-in-the-headlights, wondering what went wrong because "it's MY TURN!"
The Triumvirate: Establishment pubbies, media & Socialist know that he will also pick his leaders from OUTSIDE the INSIDE and he has also stated that he will not keep ONE holdover now in position. For ex: Ben Bernake - "You're Fired!"
So the Triumvirate is beginning to howl and froth like the Hounds of Baskerville.
Which group do YOU belong in?
