Why don’t you look at his career in government from 1980-2000? Newt was despised by the Republican elite for forcing them to take the conservative hard line on issues like taxes and the military and hated, attacked and slandered by the Democrats as much as Clarence Thomas, Robert Bork, Sarah Palin, Ken Starr, Rush Limbaugh, etc. You should know how to sniff out an ally by looking at who their enemies are.
What he earned from Freddie Mac as a consultant was a pittance. They got him cheap and I think they got a great value for their money getting advice from someone that knowledgeable on government policy and history. Like many badly run companies, they seem to have not followed the advice of their smartest employees. Freddie Mac was a private company then, not funded by the taxpayer. In 2008 before the bailout, Newt spoke out publically that they should not be bailed out.

Who’da thunk he’d be pimping out Nancy Pelosi’s agenda on global warming? But he did...... What else would he do?
I don’t know. That’s why I don’t support Newt. That’s why nobody should. There are no limits on his ability to compromise. Personally, or politically.
