4. Post it every day. Wasn't Newt forced out by Boehner after having 84 ethics violations?
Didn't he resign in disgrace? WTF is he doing back?

Couple Fined $1,000 On Gingrich Phone Call
Published: April 26, 1997

A husband and wife were fined $500 apiece today for intercepting a cellular phone call of Speaker Newt Gingrich discussing his ethics problems.

The couple, John and Alice Martin, two self-described small-town political junkies who got caught in a big-time political furor, pleaded guilty to using a radio scanner to intercept a call intentionally. They could have been fined $5,000 each.

The Martins said they heard the Speaker's voice on their scanner in December and taped the conversation to capture history.

The recording, which the Martins turned over to a Democratic House member, caused an uproar on Capitol Hill.

As part of the plea bargain, the Martins must cooperate with the Government in its investigation into how transcripts of the tape ended up in The New York Times, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Roll Call, a Capitol Hill newspaper.

The call -- between Mr. Gingrich and Representative Dick Armey of Texas, John A. Boehner of Ohio, Bill Paxon of New York and other Republicans -- took place as the House ethics committee was about to announce a settlement of its investigation of Mr. Gingrich.

He wasn't supposed to be communicating with members of Congress about the settlement...uh-oh! :hide:

7. I remember the day that paper came out. Was working 3rd shift at a gas station...
...and I remember, clearly, the bundle of papers with that on the top.

We sold every copy that morning.

17. No Newt...
I remember Michael Stipe of REM wearing a t-shirt that said : "No Newt is good Newt". I think it was on SNL.
