You're a mean one, Mister Gingrinch.
You hate liberals through and through.
You take money from the needy,
The middle class won't vote for you.
Mister Gingrinch!
In an election between you, Mr. Romney,
Obama, and a Ficus...
I would vote for the Ficus in the poll!!!

Newt balanced the budget, surplus, welfare reform, reduced taxes and got more revenue than Bill C. tax increases, smaller government, and passed last civil rights bill by working with Democrats fulfilling CONTRACT WITH AMERICA.
If that makes Newt a scorpion I want more scorpion in D.C.. Newt warned Ron P. and Mitt R. wanting a positive campaign. They declined and now Newt follows their example...

A scorpion can never be anything but a scorpion.

I believe that Newt will be the next "great" president. He will beat the daylights out of Obama in the debates and be the president this country needs. I will vote for him in the primaries and the general election. I will vote with the Republican party but Newt will get my vote.

Fernando of PA of PA _ First brucetee makes a FOOL OF HIMSELF now you...
1. Once does not make a “professional adulterer ”.
2. I don’t take much stock in “probably advised ”.
3. As far as “religious law ” Nancy Pelosi and all the Kennedy’s should be voting AGAINST abortion.
4. How about Teddy’s marriages and two of his brothers had M. Monoe.
5. No mention of WRONG DOING at “Freddie Mac”.
6. Newt DID NOT DO “ethics violations and mislead the Congress.” A FEW minor point yes that Newt admitted:
“The House ethics subcommittee declared today that Speaker Newt Gingrich's misuse of tax-exempt funds for a politically tinged college course reflected a pattern of years of ''disregard and lack of respect for the standards of conduct'' a Congressman should follow.”

As I have provided links in past, court found Newt innocent of this.
7. Newt resigned over voters unhappiness with Bill C. impeachment and expected loss of seats. Some Republicans unhappy with Newt’s battle with former Speaker.
Newt was re-elected and no they did not “threw him out! ” He resigned.
8. “Ron Paul, called Newt a "chicken hawk" because he dodged the draft during the Vietnam War”.
You mean like Bill C. ? Newt was deferred just like Bill C.. obuma never served. Using your definition there were many, many draft dodgers. I call them government approved exceptions.

Newt Gingrich is a professional adulterer who married 3 women and had illicit relations with others while married. While married to his second wife he was living with Callista Bisek, who probably advised him to become Catholic and run for president. He and Callista were married in a hotel rather than in a Catholic temple. As far as religious law is concerned, Newt and Callista are not married at all and continue their adulterous affair. Newt’s first wife was his geometry teacher who was about 19 years older than him. She was his teacher and mentor. She did everything for him including changing his diapers, which must have been a huge job given Newt’s humongous butt. After he didn’t need his first wife he dumped her.
If Newt became president he is likely to help himself to the public trough, like he did when he worked as a "Historian" for Freddie Mac and was paid one and a half million dollars of taxpayers' money. And what did Freddie Mac need a "Historian" for? Newt should return that money to the U.S. Treasury.
Speaker Newt committed ethics violations and mislead the Congress. The Republicans were very dissatisfied with his leadership, and on November 6, 1998 Newt resigned as Speaker of the House and from the Congress. Yes, the Republican lawmakers threw him out!
Ron Paul, called Newt a "chicken hawk" because he dodged the draft during the Vietnam War, yet Newt has a record of supporting all U.S. military engagements overseas. Newt said that he was the father of two children, and during that period a deferment was automatic. Ron Paul replied that he was also the father of two children, yet he served. Ron Paul was a flight surgeon in the Air Force during the Vietnam era. Newt Gingrich was a draft dodger.

No opinion involved brucetee on my part. Just destroying your wrongful cuts on Newt....
You wrote “what seedy conduct the man ask. how about being reprimand and fined $300,000 "disrgard and lack of respect for the standards of conduct a congressmen should follow". ”
I counter with the facts:
“The House ethics subcommittee declared today that Speaker Newt Gingrich's misuse of tax-exempt funds for a politically tinged college course reflected a pattern of years of ''disregard and lack of respect for the standards of conduct'' a Congressman should follow.”

Time to run like a scared rabbit...
