Newt Gingrich has a new unofficial campaign surrogate and her name is Sarah Palin.
As the 2008 veep nominee sees it, Gingrich is getting a raw deal from the national media and conservative elite, the very same forces who conspired against her when she was on the national ticket. Palin hasn’t endorsed Gingrich — and has no official role in his campaign — but she is repeatedly surfacing at just the right times on the national airwaves to vociferously defend him.
In her latest appearance, Palin stated: “Look at Newt Gingrich, what’s going on with him via the establishment’s attacks,” she said, though the original question was about Ron Paul. “They’re trying to crucify this man and rewrite history and rewrite what it is that he has stood for all these years.”
Palin then called conservative writer Peggy Noonan “hypocritical” for recently calling Gingrich an “angry little attack muffin.”
“They maybe subscribe such characterization of Newt via words like that, but they don’t subscribe those to say Mitt Romney when he or his surrogates do the same thing,” she said. “That’s that typical hypocrisy stuff in the media that I’ve lived with over a couple of decades in the political arena. So I’m used to it.”
“But in order to help educate the rest of the American public, I’ll articulate that it is hypocritical of the media to subscribe to one candidate and not another, that kind of angry attack muffin verbiage to one and not the other.”
Though she declined to run for president in 2012, Palin still has a devoted following among tea party conservatives....

Does not Bloody Thursday prove we are overwhelmingly over the target?
I think Newt is the man to beat O-zero , Mitt cant stand up to O-Zero in the debate, I hope Palin will help Newt , and maybe find a place with Him , I like them both , O-Zero wants to run against Mitt because their health plans are the same , in that case the fools will vote for the Fraud again .
If I had any.... LOL
The hypocritical elites in the Republican establishment despise conservatives and the Tea Party more than they despise the liberals and Democrats.
The RINO’s in the mainstream media have never attacked Obama they way they do Gingrich now.
Exactly. The RINO thugs Nver attack obama like they do fellow repubs. screw em.
Please speak English, Sarah.
Please self-ducttape yourself, yardstick.
I noticed that too. “Ascribe” would have been the correct word choice. (if I understand her remark...)
Translated into Sarahspeak:
"Please applicate yourself via duck tape, yardstick."
Translated into Yardspeak:
Shut up, Sarah. Your speak too much truth. My ears hurt. Stop.
Oh I agree she speaks the truth. I just wish she would speak the truth in something like English.
Her closing keynote speech at CPAC will be HUGE!!!!
So she's going to "educate" everyone, being so smart and all?
“They maybe subscribe such characterization of Newt via words like that, but they don’t subscribe those to say Mitt Romney when he or his surrogates do the same thing,”
The word you're looking for, Our Sarah, is ascribe.
as·cribe
verb (used with object), -cribed, -crib·ing.
1.
to credit or assign, as to a cause or source; attribute;
impute: The alphabet is usually ascribed to the Phoenicians.
2. to attribute or think of as belonging, as a quality or
characteristic: They ascribed courage to me for something I did out of sheer panic.
You are being juvenile. Did you know that Lincoln’s words during the debates with Douglass had to be heavily edited by Greeley’s editors, because they were not quite what he MUST have meant to say. Still he did ok, because the ears of his audience were not as unreceptive as yours.
That displays her arrogance. After making such an arrogant statement she would be wise to at least use the correct words to make her point.
About politics, about politics. Not grammar. Simple fact is that however conservative Gringrich may be, Romney is not. Gringrich is ridiculed about the space program. Reagan was treated the same way when he talked about SDI. Romney belongs to the GHW Bush branch of the party which has always had a seat at the table for Planned Parenthood. Bush was never sincere about his conversion to the pro-life position, a fact he made clear by sending out the women to tell us what he really believed, whether it was Barbara or Laura of the girls. Ditto gay marriage. As for Obama care, whatever he says, he will never do more than trim it.
