Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, I remember the day he was elected speaker and what I was doing, while not paying much attention I clearly knew that political discourse and good governance in this country took a nose dive and it did. Honor, respect, public trust, communities, ethics, goodness, common interest gone with the wind%u2026%u2026%u2026%u2026%u2026%u2026%u2026.that word value was clearly about I am right a righteous and therefore others are wrong and unworthy scum wrapped in vague vicious divisive religious rhetoric and we are still there, to bad we are coming up on a time in our country where good will would have helped our communities through the rough patches%u2026.

Ninth Circuit court, which has just been so profoundly wrong and so anti-religious, eh? Many of us are NOT anti-religious.

We simply want freedom FROM religion, you salamander.

Contract with America, Part Two.
What a humorous anecdote in history
Would his run for the white house be.
Poetic justice we would see
If the Republican nominee he would be.

"...the person I am in person"
Could this man be anymore repulsive, even if he tried?
Heaven help his wives, they are tasteless saints linked to a classless oaf.

I saw this scum on a Sunday morning talk show.
He mentioned a "world war three" on the horizon several times.
Scared me so much made me wanna go back to church and get molested.
He's scum.
Nice of CBs to add (newt.org) by his picture.
How much did he pay to add that?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE nominate this dolt for the GOP candidate. With the exception of the morlocks in the deep south, it would be a clean sweep for the Dems in 2008.

Didn't this guy cheat on his wife while she had cancer, or something like that?

The story is he discussed their divorce while she was being treated for cancer. But he was DEFINATELY tapping something, probably his 3rd wife, while sitting as speaker of the house during Clinton's Lewinski BJ.

Either way, the man is a zero and should NOT run! And, I'm ashamed to say, he's a PhD from my alma matter. :(

Yes (rolls eyes) we need an even BIGGER right-wing lunatic in office in '09. Yeah, that'll fix things.

I hope he wins the Republican nomination so a Democrat can win the presidency.

I'd rather see Homer Simpson as President than Newt. Didn't this guy cheat on his wife while she had cancer, or something like that?

Old Newt talks a good talk.....but he's got WAY too much baggage to be an effective candidate. He may as well save his money and his time.
