Again, two points of view are presented but you’ll have to decide for yourself which is the good point and which is the bad. – Iron Filing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKVTljo-5jA&feature=player_detailpage’

Newt: Last Not-Mitt Standing

©John Deering It’s amazing. Just a few weeks ago, his presidential campaign was just a show to help Gingrich sell books and videos. Less than 6 months ago his campaign staff abandoned him en masse due to his lack of seriousness. Gingrich has not risen like a phoenix, however. Everyone else not-Romney has just dropped […]

One Man Wrestling: Newt vs Gingrich Edition Round 1 (Libya)

Yes, you’ve seen clips of Newt lips flapping about Libya before but it is worth watching again and again because without repeated viewing, it is hard to grasp that even a politician as base as Gingrich can spin 180 degrees this fast with such appearance of sincerity and no hint of embarrassment.

Parade of Buffoon Balloons

©Mike Luckovich Au contraire, there is plenty more hot air where that came from. In fact, the supply appears endless.

Most of these schools ought to get rid of […]

Trump would be known as ‘The Newt’ 7. Still have a tattoo of your ex-girlfriend’s name? No problem! 6. Santa now says, ‘On […]

Everything Old Is Newt Again but Newt Will Soon Be Old Again

One difference between Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney is that Mitt’s stand on issues changes whenever convenient whereas Newt holds conflicting opinions simultaneously, for a price. Mitt doesn’t have a strong core but he does seem sincere as he swings in the breeze. On the other hand, Newt has a very strong core but it’s […]

From Mud To Duds: where did Newt’s first 2012 campaign staff go?

Now that Newt Gingrich’s poll numbers are surging, I was wondering what happened to the members of his staff that jumped ship in June. Dave Carney, Rob Johnson and Katon Dawson all went to Rick Perry. They must be having second thoughts now after switching from the morally muddy but excellent debater Gingrich to the […]
