I say let them keep playing the poor victimized Newt card. People outside the echo chamber aren’t buying it.

3 offices and 30 staff, perhaps...all of this crapola from romney and Bachman needs to be put in it’s place. (throwing what sticks on the wall..)

Newt didnt make all his money as a consultant. He sold books, he gave speeches, he gets a retirement. IF he wants to buy his wife a pricey present that is HIS business...not the publics. It is HIS money.

“And the rest went where ?????”

Didn’t read the article? Offices, overhead, 30 employees...and this was a total over years. Just won’t give it up, huh?

“Tiffany’s for jewelry for Callista?”

You seem to be against earning money in the private sector, entrepreneurship and now you are against people owning property, too? You on the right board, Pal?

Excuse me, but that’s stupid... 10 years ago I was the president and ceo of a start-up software company that grossed 500K a year. My paycheck was 3K a month.

Do the math, 35,000 X 9 years = 315,000 (this is close to what they had claimed in the beginning and then changed it by adding what the companies received.)

So... 1,285,000 / by 3 companies= 428,333 / 9 years = 47,593 a year.

Now does it look like a “sweetheart” deal?

THIS is a sham and those attacking Newt now it!
