Newt Gingrich: His Baggage Has Baggage

[theHawk]

Yea, Newt certainly has his baggage.

But I don't think most Americans even care about that kind of shit now.
$15 Trillion in debt, 15% real unemployment, an unconstitutional health care law that is driving up health costs, a do-nothing senate, and a President that circumvents the Constituion whenever he sees fit. But all you libs just care about winning an election, even when we all know that the Hussein and Dems have zero intention of fixing these problems.

The country knows we are headed over a cliff with the failure of socialist policies.

I think most people care more about saving our country from total economic ruin than Newt's failed marriage.

I love to see the fear in liberals eyes!

A smart person would wait until a candidate was selected before attacking them.

But the liberals are so fucking stupid they're going to vet our candidate to a point where there will be nothing left to tarnish them with.



But what can they do? Run on Obama's record?

 

[AmericanFirst]

Remember when Newt bitched that Clinton forced him and his colleagues to sit in the back of Air Force one, that Clinton wouldn't even talk to them?

and remember when the WH then released a picture of Clinton and Gingrich yucking it up on Air Force One?

Fucking great.

Remember when clinton got on national television and flat out lied to every American? Gingrich is still better than clinton and obamaturd.

Hey AmericanFirst - Gingrich went on national television and flat-outlied to every American as well. On more than one occasion. About substantive issues.

But I'm glad the so-called Conservatives have sunk so low as to rally around "our candidate has higher standards than William Jefferson Clinton!". Please make that your rallying cry.

Everyone has higher standards than clinton. I am not saying I excuse Gingrich. I am saying that for dimwits to cry about him is being hypocritical. At least Gingrich didn't do it in the oval office. Clinton violated the office, that is what is disgraceful.

 

[Old Rocks]

LOL. Go ahead and run Newtie. We, the American Citizens, remember enough about his past to know that we cannot trust our government to someone so completely amoral.

Is there anyone in politics that doesn't have baggage?

Then vote for the gun runners. You know the guys that are responsible for over two hundred deaths because they wanted to undermine the second.

 

[Lonestar_logic]

Probably not. The difference is the Democrats celebrate their moral indescretions while Republicans shun them.

"I'm not excusing Gingrich, but let me change the topic and offer some rationale as to why I excuse Gingrich"

Pathetic.

Post something when you have something other than that which most of us have know about for years.

At least Newt, unlike Obama, has been vetted.

As for my parents’ divorce, I can remember when they told me.

It was the spring of 1980.

I was 13 years old, and we were about to leave Fairfax, Va., and drive to Carrollton, Ga., for the summer. My parents told my sister and me that they were getting a divorce as our family of four sat around the kitchen table of our ranch home.

Soon afterward, my mom, sister and I got into our light-blue Chevrolet Impala and drove back to Carrollton.

Later that summer, Mom went to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta for surgery to remove a tumor. While she was there, Dad took my sister and me to see her.

It is this visit that has turned into the infamous hospital visit about which many untruths have been told. I won’t repeat them. You can look them up online if you are interested in untruths. But here’s what happened:

My mother and father were already in the process of getting a divorce, which she requested.
Dad took my sister and me to the hospital to see our mother.

She had undergone surgery the day before to remove a tumor.

The tumor was benign.

As with many divorces, it was hard and painful for all involved, but life continued.

The lefties don't want to see that story my friend.

They prefer the one that says Newt dumped his first wife while she was dying of cancer. LOL

Correcting The Record: Newt Gingrich Didn’t Divorce His First Wife While She Had Cancer

For years, I have thought about trying to correct the untrue accounts of this hospital visit. After all, I was at the hospital with them, and saw and heard what happened. But I have always hesitated, as it was a private family matter and my mother is a very private person. In addition, for the four people involved, it was one of a million interactions and was not considered a defining event by any of us.

My mother and I have both recently run into quite a few people who hold an inaccurate understanding of this hospital visit. Many think my mother is dead.

So, to correct the record, here is what happened: My mother, Jackie Battley Gingrich, is very much alive, and often spends time with my family. I am lucky to have such a “Miracle Mom,” as I titled her in a column this week.

Interesting what a first person interpretation sounds like compared to 3rd party interpretation.

If only Newt's ex-wife agreed with Newt's daughter.

Ex-wive's and Ex-husband's have an aura of reasonable doubt when it comes to talking about the half that is their ex.

true.

 

[eflatminor]

Okay, I read the article and despite its desperate and heavily biased tone, I'll accept everything stated in the piece is true. I still don't give a shit; I'd vote for Newt in a heartbeat over the baggage the current President carriers.

In a heartbeat...

 

[Katzndogz]

Newt might be the biggest beneficiary from these protests since Nixon in 1968. He's ZOOMING to the top.

Keep it UP, what happened to burning down New York, give up on that didja?

I suspect many feel as you do

And children of those divorces are completely neutral.
