Newt Gingrich said Friday that Herman Cain should not have joked about Anita Hill potentially endorsing him for president, arguing in a radio interview that harassment is “not something to be joked about.”

Hey Newt, did you not hear Herman when he said: “America needs to learn how to take a joke”? Apparently you’re tense Newt. Take a night off the campaign and spend it with Callista “releasing” your tension.
Newt just doesn’t know how to shut his mouth...he probably just lost some that were beginning to warm up to him again...
Newtie has dumped two wives and run off with other women, but he lectures Cain about a joke. What a lout that clown is.
“He may well be innocent,” Gingrich said of Cain, “and I think it's perfectly reasonable for him to defend himself and for him to make clear who his accusers are, but these are not things, I think, that you joke about.”
“Just when I was beginning to wonder if my antagonism towards Newt was possibly wrong, he proves that I was right to start with. Newt really is smart but he doesn’t seem to have any real beliefs other than what he thinks will make him more popular.”
He simply has no core. He looks at this run for president as nothing more than a Debate Society event. He has NO CLUE how angry the base is...for if he did, he would have NEVER gotten on that couch with Pelosi.
Neut should not go there.
Exactly..Romney should be the one Newt saves his arrows for. This is the very reason he (Newt) cannot win some conservatives over and why I do not trust Newt to do the right thing.
I have to be honest, I’ve been waiting for Newt to cut Cain, I just didn’t know when or where. This is just a wee shot across the bow..but Newt’s comin’ for Cain.
The sad thing is..the media and rinos are going to hype Newt and when they think Cain is beaten in the polls enough..they will turn on him in a heartbeat. It’s all about electing Romney.
and maybe Cain will endorse Romney again IF he doesnt get the gop nomination
No Newt, REAL harassment is not something to be joked about. But made up stories about harassment meant to destroy people politically should be joked about endlessly.
I’m now thinking that this may be Newt’s implosion...and not a day too soon. Hopefully his supporters will go to Cain, who seems to be able to handle his run for the top job better than any of the others.
Newt, pretty stupid. Clarence Thomas didn’t do anything against Anita Hill. She was a fraud. So the joke by Cain works. Newt is stupid.
Good night clown!
Now there you go again Newt, just when you started changing some minds.....
Newt is a patholigical egomaniac. I hope he keeps shooting his mouth off so we never forget what a two-faced jerk he has been in the past.
What a waste of a brilliant mind.
Don’t miss her. Glad she’s gone.
Sexual harassment no, but Anita Hill is as fair game as is Herman Cain when she goes public.
Not politically.
Ah Newt...Newt...now do ya understand why we think you’re a smart guy and all, but never can quite trust ya?
