SCHIEFFER: Well, I mean, it's very odd to me that someone would run up
a half-million-dollar bill at a jewelry store.

GINGRICH: Well, go talk to Tiffany's. All I'm telling you is we are
very frugal. We, in fact, live within our budget. We owe nothing.

Yep, this kind of stuff and all the wives make Newt an unlikely front
runner. The 'publicans had best get their **** together and soon. its
going totake a strong candidate if we don't want four more years of
Obamanomics.

Which part of that? He made some good points but he's far too
radical. Read the sample pages of his book, _The Anti-American
Manifesto_ on Amazon. It'll cure you of him in short order.

I'm afraid he's right about a revolution being the only way things
will change here to any extent, and I'm amazed that it hasn't begun
yet for one of many dozens of reasons.

"Colossus-The Forbin Project" was always one of my favorite movies.
It's about a computer that takes over all major governments in the
world and institutes forced peaceful prosperity with humans impotently
kicking and screaming all the way. We need better computer AIs!

Excellent article

Which is why we have had some good Presidents..and a raft of poor ones.

Reagan, versus Carter for example...for those of you who remember the
times and the candidates

Agreed. An honest, mentally stable and intelligent person would be a
hugely helpful addition to the Republican party.

I do mean this quite seriously.

A long time ago, I actually admired Newt.

I look foward to your report if you keep the h word
out of it.

On Newt, he's running for Newt, without any chance
of winning, with every chance of adding to what
passes for fame in this country and vast improvement
in his speaking fees. When the news reported that
he divorced his first wife when in the hospital with
cancer and his second shortly after a diagnosis of
MS, that was enough to form a picture.

Your problem is that there are people like that in the Democratic party
but you're simply incapable or recognizing them even when they are right
in front of you.

All this demonstrates is how lousy you are at judging someone's
character. I'm sure you admire plenty of other republicans who are
exactly the same as Gingrich.

I'll give you the intelligence, and a possible on the stability, but I
recommend that you stop following the party line on the honesty part.
Jesus, Ig, read something other than DNC propaganda. Try a little
research. Our sitting President was a major factor behind the housing
crisis. The Democratic Black Caucus, including Obama, was a major
force behind Fannie Mae giving homes to people who couldn't EVER be
considered stable enough to make a -second- payment, let alone 30
years worth of 'em. He doesn't own up to that, either.

What substantial promises has he fulfilled since first campaigning?
Which have shown him to be a prevaricator, such as the promise of
transparency in the Whitehouse?

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/ here's a list to get
you started (likely not unbiased.)

Damnit, Ig. Read some of the things written about him and do your own
research via known unbiased (hard to find) sources. You'll come to the
same conclusions I have: I'd trust him as far as I could throw him
(and my spine is out of place at the moment. Chiro visit #4 coming
up.)

That's what's wrong with the right wingers. They don't recognize quality
in anyone that's not in their party. They think douche bag republicans
like Newt have character but can't see anything positive in Obama.

How can you reason with people like that? It's impossible.

Newt is a good example of what is wrong with republicans. What you see
is not what you get. Or more like, what they tell you is not true.
Here's Newt trying to portray himself as just one of us. He's not. He's
a spoiled, rich, elite, pretending to be a regular guy. He's far more at
home with the rich and the business community than he is with anyone
with a normal job.

His spending at Tiffany's is just one example of his opulent lifestyle.
The other day I heard that his expenses for airline travel for the year
amounted to 3 million dollars. In comparison Mitt Romney spent something
like 350,000. So here's Newt spending a half a million at Tiffany's and
three million on air travel. But Newt says he and his wife are frugal.

That's the problem with all the republicans. They want to portray
themselves as representing average Americans when in reality their
policies are harmful to ordinary people. Policies like getting rid of
Medicare and substituting a voucher to buy insurance with. That isn't
going to help granny. It will help the insurance company. So will the
subsidies to oil companies they just kept in place, and so will the
watered down regulations on Wall Street they forced on us.

The problem is that the hypocrisy Newt demonstrates goes with the entire
republican party. They pretend to be on your side while at the same time
they are stabbing you in the back. You know, like when Newt was having
an affair while savaging Clinton for fooling around with Monica
Lewinsky. How anyone can follow people like this is really amazing.
