Gay rights protester dumps glitter on Newt Gingrich (Where's the arrest?)
yahoo ^ | 5/18/2011 | by Holly Bailey

Could Newt Gingrich's week get any worse?

Just days into his 2012 presidential bid, the former House speaker has been under fire this week from fellow Republicans for trashing Rep. Paul Ryan's proposal on Medicare during his appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday--criticism that forced Gingrich to apologize.

On Monday, an Iowa voter was caught on camera griping him out. And Tuesday, it was revealed that Gingrich at one point owed at least $250,000 to Tiffany's—an embarrassing detail that could potentially come back to haunt the self-described fiscal conservative's 2012 bid.

Good. The sooner he’s out, the better. Get the RINOs out so the conservative candidates (Cain, Bachmann, maybe Palin) can get the attention they deserve.

As much as I can't stand Newt I gotta agree... if political and sexual orientations of the people were reversed, the cops would be all over this, and it would be a hate crime of the worst possible degree. Why wasn't this person arrested? In this day and age you have no idea what is in powder. Shouldn't there at least be assault charges filed?

If Newt personally chooses to not have the perp prosecuted, then I'll have even less respect for him than I do now!

I agree but I believe to throw a substance, glitter or anything else, is illegal and the little Queer Muffin needs to prosecuted.

Saw a story about the Tiffany debt on NBC news last night. Looks like the newsies are going to be all over Newt about that. They’ll dig to the center of the Earth for dirt on him and the other Pubs.

Quite unlike the way they reported, or non-reported negative things about THE 1.

If Sarah Palin gets into the race, look for the newsies to go after her tooth and nail, not that theirn not doing that now. It’ll just be more visicous. And compare that to the treatment THE 1 will get.

Tiffany’s is known for only a couple things—the first thing that comes to my mind is JEWELRY. Now we’re going to be reminded constantly about all of the lavish gifts he’s given Callista, his THIRD wife, over the years. Gifts that he couldn’t afford, obviously.

There seems to be a lot of male homosexuals in Minnesota. I think they’re hard-of-hearing. A lot of men in Minnesota use their rods at ice holes. I...c...e...ice holes. Stupid hard-of-hearing homosexuals.

Newt, if you wanted a bump in the polls you should have decked him.

Please. Did he default on the debt? That's what I thought.

Only a vapid moron could care about a five year old discloser.

I’m not a Gingrich fan, but I have no wondor about the arrest. It ain’t gonna happen. It’s Minneapolis. This was an example of acceptable free expression, as long as it is a leftist loon assaulting a perceived oppressor.

I expect them to do much worse than this to a TRUE conservative.

No arrest because it’s a less than 1% minority that did the dead.

Have you ever had the bag of crap left on your doorstep, that’s sounds like about what happened to Newt. The important part is that it does not make him tick.

IIRC, he’s the same attention whore who threw pennies at former GOP candidate for MN governor, Tom Emmer.

The local media presstututes love this leftard and give him free press all the time.
