He's not picking you as VP, Newt.

Did he say that during his and Calista's last outing at Tiffany's?

Look, I don't give a frig where they shop or how they spend their money. But given the embarrassment of the original story, Gingrich should know better. What is this, amateur hour?

There are some excellent medications on the market that will help people conquer these kinds of delusions. Considering Newt has a gold plated taxpayer funded health plan you'd think he'd take advantage of it. But it might also have an effect on how he sees his wife, so it's a double edged sword to be sure.

He must have a very low opinion of his constituency.

The crazy part is that he could be right. Perry just came out as a birther. Bachmann has been fading fast. Cain just released a crazy smoking commercial. Newt is like the contestant in Survivor who just lays low and lets everyone else pick each other off. He also has no shot of actually getting the nomination.

He's half right.

I think a 30-second spot with nothing but a 28-second close-up on Newt's wife's eyes -- no voice-over, no music, no graphics -- and fade to black with a full-screen "Obama 2012 -- because, come on" would somehow give Obama 700 electoral votes.

At some point I think it's going to come down to Romney and me fighting over a gay teen prostitute.

Just a matter of time.

Gingrich and his Stepford Wife are the only 2 people in the country who don't know what an amoral scumbag he is.

"Once we get down to a two-person debate, then I'm reasonably confident I will win," Gingrich said

Will Gringrich be debating himself?

Gingrich is also confidently but cautiously preparing himself for his next face-off: An epic battle with windmills.

Bazinga!

Newt Gingrich is really a terrible human being. For many reasons.

Gingrich never got his conservative street cred back after he threw that tantrum for being seated in the back of Clinton's plane.

Even though that was done because Gingrich's limo would be stopping at the rear section of the plane, making it convenient for him.

"Are you serious and if you are, I have a follow up question"

"I am serious"

"Follow up question: Really? You're serious?"

You have to admit, the ability to ignore reality seems to be a major qualification for being President these days.

With a platform like this, Newt has this puppy all locked up.

I worked for Gingrich in 1992, raising money for GOPAC, his political action committee. During fundraisers at homes in the Washington area, he would whisper something in the ear of a sweet young thing and they would disappear for 30-45 minutes.

"Newt's getting a blow job," a female GOPAC staffer told me. "He likes blow jobs."

At the Republican National Convention in Houston in 1992, a GOPAC volunteer was assigned to escort young women to a hotel room for quickie oral sex and stand guard outside to make sure the Congressman was not disturbed. I found one of those women crying in the hotel bar afterwards.

"He's a pig," she said. "He made me get down on my knees and fellate him and then turned his back to me and told me to leave as soon as he came."

So, I asked, "why did you do it?"

"I work for him," she said. "I want to keep my job."

When the Republicans were trying their best to impeach and convict Bill Clinton for lying about his oral dalliances with White House intern Monica Lewinsky, Gingrich was stepping out on his wife and sampling the sexual pleasures of Calista Bisek, a long and lean Capitol Hill Blonde more than 20 years his junior.

And yes, the Callista in the story is the same as Crazy-Eyes Callista, of course.

In a more perfect world in which the intellectual achievements and career accomplishments of candidates received the attention and respect they deserved, and where Gingrich had not already squandered his moral credentials many times over, he'd be right, except I'd include Housman among the legitimate candidates. Unfortunately for him, his moral squalor alone invalidates his presidential aspirations, and his intellect counts for nothing in a party that encourages borderline retarded people like Bachmann and Perry to run for office.
 
2011-10-25 12:43:31 PM
Oops, Huntsman, not Housman. Where'd that come from?

If the GOP had any sense they would elect Huntsman. He may not be as insane as they prefer but he has the best chance of beating Obama.

Ah yes, Newt Gingrich, whose plan for the federal judiciary is to cut off the lights to the 9th Circuit. Hey, it'll reduce the deficit!

"Congress can say, 'All right, in the future, the Ninth Circuit can meet, but it will have no clerks,' " Mr. Gingrich told the Values Voter Summit. " 'By the way, we aren't going to pay the electric bill for two years. And since you seem to be rendering justice in the dark, you don't seem to need your law library, either.' "
