Not a Gingrich supporter at all, in fact I find him a loathsome, odious little man. However, this is wildly inappropriate and I find the timing suspect. The fact that the man can't keep his dick in his pants is at the bottom of the list of reasons why he'd be an awful President.

SlothB77: so what is she going to say?

That Gingrich liked her to put a pinky in the stinky.

SlothB77: so what is she going to say? we already know he is an adulterer, hypocritical cheat. He resigned amid a myriad of ethics violations.

She's going to remind the country of it

No idea. He's already a famous world-class scumbag.

"But Newt is going to talk to the people of South Carolina about the future- about job creation, lower taxes, and about who can defeat Barack Obama by providing the sharpest contrast to his damaging, extreme liberalism."

Theoretically, the sharpest contrast to extreme liberalism is a fascist dictatorship.

Is that really what you want to say about your father, girls? Okay.

I know... informing people about a candidate during an election season? What nerve!

This is just a reminder to the electorate that if they nominate Gingrich, there will be a non-stop carousel of such interviews with all the people the has scorned over the years.

In realty, the difference between a right-wing dictatorship and a left-wing dictatorship is window dressing.

So his daughters are honest? Where the heck did they learn that?

Probably from their mother.

And one day before the interview is to air, she is going to "mysteriously" die of cancer.

She's going to remind the country of it

She's going to tell the country how he lied to them, and to her, and to himself (but no one really cares about that last part).

And the campaign will spin it away, and the GOP will go on as usual.

As you say, most of us already know, and I doubt this is going to be very Inside Baseball beyond that. Unless she has recordings or photos, or the revelation is that Newt was converted by Jeremiah Wright's Catholic brother-in law, I doubt this will be anything like a sea change.

Sock Ruh Tease: I know... informing people about a candidate during an election season? What nerve!

My point is that there's plenty to talk about without bringing up his sex life, and there are plenty of relevant figures from the 104th Congress that could discuss policy. I don't give a shiat about his past marriages.

Meh, couldn't happen to a nicer asshole. Also, it won't hurt his election chances...Romney is the nominee, we all know this.

Um, no. Apples and oranges.

Herman Cain? Is that you?

Romney is a lucky bastard. He's been going down in flames all week. But he has yet another get out of jail free card, it seems.

must be something we haven't heard before because his daughters were awfully quick to issue a statement.

oh and Perry the human derp machine is out and today he's going to endorse Gingrich.

Lost Thought 00: This is just a reminder to the electorate that if they nominate Gingrich, there will be a non-stop carousel of such interviews with all the people the has scorned over the years.

That's something that's bothered me. How can a guy so unlikable have been such a successful politician as to become Speaker of the House? I mean, sure he's obnoxious and mean-spirited, but he doesn't even have superficial niceness or glad-handing, that I can tell.

Oh wait, Republicans/authoritarians love assholes. I forgot.

In other news: Perry's dropping out. (new window)

This is awesome. I'm getting the popcorn out for when this cancer survivor - dumped during her treatments - is drug through the mud. Rush is Newt's biggest supporter. This is an opportunity for an all-time low for the harmless little fuzzball.

/pro-life, small government, social and fiscal conservative liberal - at least that's what my Fox News watching friends and republican fark.com people call me.

Like Jon Huntsman who dropped out himself two days ago, Perry had fallen behind faux candidate Stephen Colbert, according to Public Policy Polling.

BAHAHAHAHA!!! Colbert steamrolls another one!

I think we have a new index to add to the political science literature - The Colbert Threshold. If you can't beat a comedian who isn't officially running, you should just get out immediately

I'm going to guess financial misdeeds, because we already know Gingrich has no morality at all.

From the Bill Bennet's right wing radio show this morning; said not by some random caller, but by the hos, slightly paraphrasedt:

"This interview with a candidates ex-wife is disgraceful. I get my news from a lot of sources, and ABC is frankly not usually meaningful. We should lead a boycott of these mainstream hacks. A candidates past is not an issue - the issues are the issue"

fast forward 15 seconds

"And why hasn't Obama released his school transcripts? Why didn't the mainstream media ever investigate Rev. Wright or his affilitations with the terrorist Bill Ayers? The liberal elte media dropped the ball on investigating his past in the last election."

Good. Because everyone knows all the scum bag things he has done yet he gets thunderous applause?! People are too easily distracted and need to be reminded that this man is scum.

also, nixon was about his ego, but he had his id (i.e., LUST) under control (i hope). The idea of a horny Nixon may be more than my brain can withstand.

So I shouldn't joke about Nixon and Kissinger being secret lovers then?

LordJiro: LeoffDaGrate: And one day before the interview is to air, she is going to "mysteriously" die of cancer.

Whoops. Apparently I don't know what day it is.

I guess that means she's already dead, it just hasn't been reported yet.

If you have power, money and influence; why can't you get a good looking mistress/next wife?

If the French can do it why not the US?

So is the taped interview going to mysteriously disappear? Or will ABC be destroyed in an accidental airstrike?

Republicans such as yourself are obsessed with other peoples private lives. Your platform is based on telling other people what they can and cant do in the bedroom, who people can marry, or what they do with cells in their in body. Good luck with that.

I would completely agree if it weren't for his jihad with clinton/lewinsky in the 90's. His hypocrisy deserves to be highlighted, underscored and tattooed on his forehead.

sprawl15: SlothB77: so what is she going to say?

That would be a shocker

I can't wait to hear the Gingrich campaign complain about how suspicious it is that we hear about all of these American athletes right before the Olympics. Where was the press earlier?

I'm kidding. There's no way that campaign is still relevant by the Olympics.

ActionJoe: Good. Because everyone knows all the scum bag things he has done yet he gets thunderous applause?! People are too easily distracted and need to be reminded that this man is scum.

I think you can applaud things he says and still think he's a scumbag of the lowest order. Personally, I think a lot of the stuff he says is utter nonsense, and that he's a scumbag of the lowest order.
