William Jefferson Gingrich [BAD BEAT, RIVERED]
New York Sun ^ | January 25, 2012 | R. EMMETT TYRRELL

Posted on 01/25/2012 3:53:39 PM PST by Nonstatist

Newt up against the Prophet Obama would be a painful thing to watch. He might be deft with one-liners but it would be futile. There are .. uncommitted voters to be cultivated in 2012 — all would be unmoved by Newt’s juggling of conservative shibboleths..

Now Newt is hustling my fellow conservatives .. The last time around he successfully hustled conservatives in the House of Representatives and on the House impeachment committee.. He blew the impeachment and .. his role as Speaker. He now says Republicans in the House were exhausted with his great projects. Nonsense, they were exhausted with his atrocious leadership...

He is playing the liberal media card and saying he embodies conservative values. Newt is hoping conservatives suffer amnesia. Perhaps they cannot recall mere months ago when this insufferable whiz kid was lambasting the great Congressman Paul Ryan for “right-wing social engineering” — more evidence of Newt’s not-so-hidden longing for the approval of the liberal media.

Newt and Bill ..went on to create empires, Bill in philanthropy and cheap thought, Newt in public policy and cheap thought. Bill has wrung up an unprecedented $75.6 million since absconding from the White House with White House loot and shameless pardons. Newt .. got between $1.6 million to $1.8 million from Freddie Mac, and he lobbied for Medicare Part B while receiving, according to the Washington Examiner’s Tim Carney, “Big Bucks Pushing Corporate Welfare.” Now after a lifetime in Washington he is promoting himself as an outsider.

Conservatives should not be surprised by the scandals that lie ahead, if they stick with him. Those of us, who raised the question of character in 1992, were confronted by an indignant Bill Clinton, treating the topic as a low blow. By now we know. Character matters.. Newt has Clinton’s character.

The one I love is Karl Rove ...now there was a good guy who is now the enemy ....its strange though, when he says something pro Newt he still doesnt become a good guy

I will be glad when the primary is over ...

Oddly enough I never liked Karl Rove. But then I never thought that GWB was a conservative either.

The only political figure I can say I truly dislike right now is Obama

I felt the same way about Clinton ....but Ive even softened on him a bit once he got out of power.

I truly dislike Obama and have from day one. He is the epitome of Chicago thugocracy mixed with rampant communist tendencies. The man is a racist and as evil as anyone I have ever seen.

I just hope we can defeat him because otherwise we are all in a world of hurt

Right on.

The only problem being that romnoids, like herpes, always come back.

“So we can’t have ANY issue with extra-marital affairs? It’s an issue and a problem and we can’t just ignore it.”

So, you are good with those who facilitate casual, bloody abortion but will not accept those who have publicly repented of sexual sin?

Perhaps when it is all over you may be introduced to the loving couples Ahab -n- Jezebel and Herod -n- Herodias rather than the squalid and embarassing David and Mary Magdalene.

After all, the real core meaning of life is:

NEVER DRINK NOR SMOKE NOR CHEW! NEVER KISS NO GIRLS WHO DO!

huh? Where did I advocate for abortion? I fully acknowledge repentance through God’s grace, but that repentance doesn’t automatically make someone qualified for the highest office in the land.

We will have to respectfully disagree, that’s fine, it’s a free country.

Well, it was only some few months ago that people were saying that a politician who couldn’t keep his marital vows couldn’t be trusted to keep his promises to the American people. Apparently, that has become passe.

Now, I’m off to go have affairs with two women at once so that I won’t be accused of being a Romney troll.
