His campaign song will be "God Save The Queen".

I wonder if Larry Craig will be his running mate?

Probably not, they need a balanced ticket. Maybe he''ll choose a manly man like Barbara Bush.

Now I was thinking--

Newt criticizes the other GOP candidates for skipping the "minority" debates...

Then he says he''s skipping all the debates...

So his tact is to insult everybody- true equality...

If you''re ever bored get the old Contract on America and read it side by side with the the Constitution of the Confederate States... he even cribbed that!

The once Speaker of the House, now sometimes science fiction writer, Newt Gingrich, is debating with himself, since he won''t debate with anyone else, if he should run for the Republican presidential nomination. Gingrich believes that if a Mormon who doesn''t know which end of a gun is the "business end", a former POW who loves war, a former New York City mayor who divorces his wife over his cell phone, and a former movie actor who thinks he is Ronald Reagan, can run for the White House, then a former House Speaker named after a lizard has a chance too!

SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!

VOTE on who you want to be President:

1. A History Professor- Gingrich

2. A Greedy Lawyer- Edwards

3. A Meglomaniac Narcistic Lawyer- Hillary

4. A Lawyer without experiance- Obamba

*******************************************
That is the easiest choice anyone has ever given me. I''ll take door number 4. Barack Obama is the classiest person running for president, Democrat or Republican. Newt is a joke.

Newt: Definition.
Member of the salamander family with slippery, slimey skin, most happy wallowing in the mud with plump female newts.

I don''t blame him. He is probably getting tired of his current wife and needs some fresh campaign groupies to buff. This could be a first. The president taking his fourth wife in the White House. (Or is it five) I lost count.

Oh boy another Contract On America...

Y A W N...
Hasn''t anybody told him the 80''s are over?

He thinks so special he doesn''t have to debate the others or even ask for money...

Who besides the American Enterprise Institute knighted this guy?

Earth to Newt- you''re a LOOOOOSER

dead-enders in the south refuse to see that they''ve lost another war...

jefferson davis, lyndon johnson, george bush, jr.

the south has the distinction of losing all the wars they ever started.

ha,ha,ha.

belligerent dixie losers...bush lovers!

the south can''t be depended upon to do the right thing for america.

ha,ha,ha.

war, hate, christian creeps, republican snakes...

nothing good comes out of the south.
