You're right, George, Newt's not an historian - look at his degrees - looks like a plumber to me =

Gingrich pursued higher education....He received a B.A. in history from Emory University in Atlanta ...in 1965...a M.A. in 1968, and a PhD in modern European history from Tulane University in New Orleans in 1971. ... Gingrich worked early on in academia, as an assistant professor of history and geography at West Georgia College....years later, in 1993, he taught a class, Renewing American Civilization, at Kennesaw State College in Georgia.[18]

Yep - obviously no historian...

LOL. George Will is a pathetic, miserable, tiresome and tedious Beltway whiner.

Technically, Newt is a historian, and if we ever need to know more about "Belgian Education Policy in the Congo: 1945–1960" we know who to turn to.

But Freddie Mac didn't hire him as a historian.

Thank you for this. It is amazing to me that the some people on this forum take the MSM critisim of Newt hook, line, and sinker.

The MSM and beltway RINOs are attacking Newt for a reason. They know he can win and he has a proven track record of reducing the size of the federal government. He was demonized in the 90s for doing so - by the left.

I note that you used the elipses to omit the fact that he couldn’t get tenture at a third rate college.
