2. I'm glad that this story has gotten traction
The last time it came out that Newter was a hypocrite it fell on deaf ears. I want to hit these assholes hard. I am not above name calling if it gets the job done.

3. That was excellent! And Newt isn't just a hypocrite, but a
Edited on Fri Mar-09-07 05:15 PM by Ilsa
hateful person. And he said he fell short of his own standards, but how is that possible? He was having that affair while harassing Bill Clinton of the same thing. He served his first wife divorce papers while she was recovering from cancer treatments. He has no standards. He's a selfish pig. And I don't buy his religious talk with Dobson for one second.

7. Well said
I can't believe how some people on the right still support that scumbag.

The thing is, Giuliani is very similar to Newt.

14. Ooooohhhh. I didn't know this. He is a real pig, isn't he? I guess
"...in sickness and in health..." only means if he is sick (and he is). I guess he didn't want her doctor bills or abstinence.

5. A Newt even Gussie Fink-Nottle couldn't love, no less.
That's always been my question. What kind of a mother hangs THAT on a kid? Maybe Newt's problems stem from deep-seated Oedipal issues.

Freudianly,
Bright

16. Apparently she received an alien implant after all
that resulted in her morphing into a weird human-alien hybrid with a elongated head.

11. Is it a short form for "Neutered"?

Or maybe his folks were fans of McBeth:

"Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog"

12. Well here again is another example
of Newt's goodness - did ya all know that he was one of the 3 'Senators' who wanted the Soldiers Home in DC sold while Ronnie Raygun was prez...wanna know why?

Well, I am here to serve so here tis the truth - he wanted to make it a private resort area for Senators and their 'guests' where the press and other roving eyes wouldn't see what was going on.

Thank goodness our then congress had enough good sense to shoot that down and protect our vets who live there.

Course now, it's been sold to a Catholic University who 'allows' the vets to stay in a few buildings........

Newt - the first traitor who authored the 'Contract for America.' I think we all know now just what the implications of a 'contract' was......all big business.

Someday, somewhere, there has to be justice for these pigs. He and Trent Lott are the lowest of the low...or so I thought until THIS admin took over.

13. Sean Hannity Loves Newtie
Ergo, I despise him.

It's a time-proven barometer.
