Newt Gingrich Keeps Flailing Away at Obama

Gingrich thundered: “A Real Man goes charging into his wife’s hospital room while she’s undergoing chemotherapy, and serves divorce papers on that useless bitch!”

OOOPS — That was supposed to be OFF the record. Doh! Sorry, Neuter. OK, this is the part that was ON the record:

“Obama is in a world where Hamas is firing missiles every day into Israel, Iran is building nuclear weapons and the North Koreans today, basically during his speech, fired a missile. And he has some wonderful fantasy idea that we're going to have a great meeting next year. With who? Who's coming to this meeting? The Pakistanis? The Indians? The Chinese? The Russians? And what are they going to promise? And why would you believe them? I just think it's very dangerous to have a fantasy foreign policy and it can get you in enormous trouble just like giving — we don't have a war on terror anymore. We don't have terrorist attacks anymore. So now homeland security has manmade disasters. I'm somehow not comfortable with the fact that 9/11 was a manmade disaster but not a terrorist attack and I'm not comfortable with words instead of serious systematic policies.”

In another speech, Gingrich said Obama’s planned tax increases are a threat to the Church.

He accused Obama of “deliberately trying to take away the charitable deduction for successful people so they will not give as much money to churches or charities.”

“I think there's a clear to desire to replace the church with a bureaucracy, and to replace people's right to worship together with a government-dominated system. This is most aggressive, militant, secular program I can remember. And I think you have to be really clearly aware that they want an America which is radically different than the country which was created by those pioneers who first landed back in 1607 at Cape Henry and erected a cross to thank God for having allowed them to cross the Atlantic Ocean.”

[sigh] I can’t think of any answers to that drivel, at least nothing that would be printable on a decent family blog such as this one.

On a humorous note (well, sort of), here’s another one of those rightwing websites that’s part funny and part “[gasp] Oh My God!”

Remember now, it’s not nice to laugh at the afflicted. That said, here’s their home page. “ONENEWSNOW.com. A Division of the American Family News Network.”

You’ll notice that one of their main categories is titled Persecution.

[sigh]

Actually the Hospital Incident was the first wife. We was caught messing with wife #3 before he divorced wife #2 and that helped cost him the speakership.

Newt wants to be president and wants to reminds everybody of such. As for taking away the Charity deduction, he forgets he stood there and cheered when Reagan did it, reasoning that people should be able to give on their own without some government tax to help them.

Next we got Bush and the 1000 points of light!

Newt is showing the same arrogance that got him, his ex cronies and this present batch (many of whom are ex cronies) removed from office or becoming the minority party.

He even said America's paying too much attention to the Obama's Dog

C'mon!

What a heapin' helping of good ol' neocon demagoguery. I suppose it would've been better for Obama to go around the Latin American summit kneeing the groin of every head of state the tinfoil-hat crowd has it in for.

Anyone who's not completely deranged who hasn't gotten Gingrich's number by now is a hopeless case for some other reason.

Look at it this way. In an election year in which conservative Republicans were toxic waste and hard up for a candidate, Gingrich couldn't get anyone interested in giving him money for a campaign or even, if memory serves me, an invitation to speak at the GOP convention.

Put a fork in him; I think he's done. Just a zombie mouth that goes on and on and on.

Agree. Put a fork in this guy. He's done.

On the bright side, there's lotsa good eatin'!

I don't care what anyone says, I still think Newt wears a toupee. That hair just ain't natural looking.

Erik: I hope Gingrich's arrogance keeps him out of the White House; or out of any elective position for that matter. Arrogance plus appealing to only a small minority of voters should equal obscurity.

SW: "kneeing the groin of every head of state the tinfoil-hat crowd has it in for" LOL. Yes, that's exactly what the tinfoil hat brigade wanted Obama to do, and they'll never forgive him for actually sitting down and talking with those evil creatures.

I sure hope he's "done," but you never know. They're a minority, but they're incredibly well organized and there isn't a tactic they won't stoop to.

Paul: They could him as a prop for the remake of Soylent Green.

Randal: I wouldn't doubt it.

Newt pisses me off so much that I cannot comment objectively. But if it is any consulation, many on the right hate him too.

Enemy: He's a pisser, that's for sure. I'm not surprised some of his fellow Righties don't like him. 2-faced people like him aren't usually liked.

OY, the mouthbreathers in the last couple of links...I'll have to show that one to Mr. Bee, he'll get a kick out of it.

Newt can shut up - if I had my way, I'd yank church tax exemptions Ninja fast, so they'd never know what hit them. I'd make it retroactive, too. Back to the very beginning of the tax system. They've been sucking on the system for so long, if they had to pay backtaxes, it would bankrupt every single church, and the Vatican too.

And who the hell let Newt out of his cage?? WTF, that's the best the republican'ts (stole that one from Mr. Bee) can come up with? Wait, I forget who I'm talking about here. Of course that's the best they can do. What was I thinking?

SW: He reminds me more of a giant slug. Think I'll pass :)

Bee: I don't care if churches, per se, get tax exemptions. But all their political activity being subsidized with our tax dollars -- that shit has to stop.

I guess it's reassuring that Gingrich, Alan Keyes, Palin and Jindal are the best the Republicans can come up with.

LOL! LOL! LOL! LOL! An attempt to steal money from the church. Like all rich people do is crank out money to the church. LOL! Who felt it was a good time for him to weasel his way back into the picture? He's become a self parody.

Newt needs to crawl the fuck back under his rock. What he and other right-wing idiots don't tell the American people is that the big intelligence and defense machines are always working in the background, no matter who's president.

Ricardo: Yup, those godless liberals are trying to destroy Jesus and the successful people who believe in Him.

Carlos: Back under a rock would be a good place for Gingrich.
