The Union Leader has been fascist republican since before it became popular. Not surprised.

Yup. It's been called the Mis-Leader for decades.

Are there people up there who buy this, or is it a vanity product?

Spiro Agnew is an anagram for "grow a penis."

Ever seen a cable network called Fox News? It's beyond misleading, is so disconnected from reality that it seems to be competing with the satire publication called The Onion.

Why bother putting their names together? "Newt Gingrich" is an anagram for "retching wing".

I just can't imagine who Newt appeals to. The teabaggers will claim support for him, but his pussy-hound ways have to drive them crazy. And Newt is such a sleazy asshole I can't imagine that he appeals to anyone who isn't just willing to vote for anyone because they just hate that black guy in the White House.

In short, if this guy does get the nomination -- and he will not -- it'll be an asswhipping of FDR over Landon and Nixon over McGovern proportions.

Don't watch Fox. I try to maintain what IQ points I have left.

Apparently, he appeals to people who thought Cain went a little too far with the sexual abuse.

Nah, they like it. It's a sign of dominance. If you just imagine Ron Swanson's take on any political thing, you'll perfectly understand the Tea Party. Just imagine how Ron Swanson would respond if someone said that his favored politician was a pussy-hound (By the way, I LOVE THIS TERM!).



"I don't really care what a man does with his personal time. In fact, I think it's a good sign that Newt chases tail all the time. It's what any dominant male should do. I picture him as an alpha male in the ancestral serengeti. He would have a harem, because he's the powerful male who can accrue the most mates. In this world of 'only the strong survive,' sometimes a fella has to hit it and quit it."

AntiNerd: I forget who wrote this first, but Newt is what a stupid guy's idea of a smart guy should look and sound like.

Krugman, though he says "somebody said" -

"It was his time, the Republican base doesn't want Romney and they keep looking for an alternative, and Newt - although somebody said 'he's a stupid man's idea of what a smart person sounds like,' but he is more plausible than the other guys they've been pushing up."

winterwhile: "Weaksauce is Weak"

Meh. Too easy---tons of books on and by Obama already. I'm not feeling it.

jake_lex: The teabaggers will claim support for him, but his pussy-hound ways have to drive them crazy.

Oh, I don't think that bothers them. They think that's how "Real Men" are supposed to behave behind the scenes. Boys will be boys and all that. To them Obama's weak because he doesn't chase tail. They want their family values on the outside, while knowing he's an "alpha male" on the inside bullshiat.

GhostFish: People who are ignorant of his past, authoritarians and those that love them.

You mean like Bill Clinton?

"He's articulate and he tries to think of a conservative version of an idea that will solve a legitimate problem," Clinton told Newsmax in the exclusive interview this week, by way of explaining the Gingrich resurgence.

Clinton continued: "For example, I watched the national security debate last night. And Newt said two things that would make an independent voter say, 'Well, I gotta consider that.'

The former president also credited Gingrich for innovative thinking in his plan to give workers an option to invest their Social Security retirement funds privately. Gingrich said there should be a guarantee, so that, if markets nose-dive, workers would not receive less than they would have received under the old Social Security system.

"See, that's a new wrinkle on this," Clinton said, crediting Gingrich for thinking out of the box. "So he's always . . . I think he's doing well just because he's thinking, and people are hungry for ideas that make some sense."


The endorsement is newsworthy not because the paper often predicts correctly, but because Romney has spent so much time and money courting it, not to mention, it's influential in New Hampshire and *has* had an important impact on the primary in that state. If Newt wins New Hampshire out from under Romney, well, that would be pretty funny.

GhostFish: stoli n coke: winterwhile: we had no history on Obama

Now Newt brings 40 years of history

one thing he does not have is taking 3 years to sink the US economy

and best part

3 Million out of work... forever.. thanks Obama

Could someone give this guy a job so he'll shut up?

Apparently, pretending to own a small business isn't very lucrative.

Do you know of anyone looking to hire a Teabagger with Down syndrome that needs a Chinese->English dictionary to communicate?

Redundant

Karac: jake_lex: I just can't imagine who Newt appeals to.

The kind of people that believe he embodies family values more than Obama.

The folks who imagine that he'll deliver cash to. Not the family value voters, though he's going to try to get them. He'll fail, but that's not going to keep him from trying...
