And we’re supposed to believe that this gem of wisdom came from hindsight and reflection?

Sorry, I don’t buy it. I find the idea that Gingrich said it to discourage current senators and congressional representatives from impeaching Orange Julius to be much more plausible.

And for the health and well-being of the DU community, I will refrain from posting any Vogon poetry.

And for a second, he almost sounds bipartisan. BIG NOT!

was a mistake: HE WAS DOING IT TOO SIMULTANOUSLY!!!

Gingrich was found in a parked van, rocking away, with Calista while he was still married to Marianne.

In 1993, while still married to Marianne, Gingrich began an affair with House of Representatives staffer Callista Bisek, more than two decades his junior. Gingrich was having this affair even as he led the impeachment of Bill Clinton for perjury related to Clinton's own extramarital affair. Gingrich filed for divorce from Marianne in 1999, a few months after she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The marriage produced no children. On January 19, 2012, Marianne alleged in an interview on ABC's Nightline that she had declined to accept Newt's suggestion of an open marriage. Newt disputed the account.

With the 1994 election, he was able to put the GOP back in control of Congress for the first time in 40 years, and because of that, they still keep him around.

his entire political career. He has shown the same pattern in his private life.

He pops his head out of the sewer every once and a while.

IOW, he is still working as an operative.

The GOP wouldn't waste good sleaze like him.

Something I post often -

Whenever you finally forget about people like him, they pop back up to remind us they're still alive.

Thanks for nothing Newt.............

So he tried to manufacturer one and he will keep manufacturing alternative shoulda/woulda/coulda scenarios to placate himself as long as he's still breathing

is the mistake, His mother should have given his sperm donor a blowjob that night, taken birth control, the after pill, had an abortion or the donor could have saved us all this headache by wearing a condom. Giving birth to this piece of shyt was the mistake. Same applies to the Convicted Felon.

Fucking GOP hypocrites...

wherever the hell that is

he looks.

Trying to somehow rationalize the shit he caused for years during the Clinton administration?

He Nudie...FUCK YOU!!

Having oral sex with another man’s wife while he sat in a car with his kids nearby. What a prince. And yet the Evangelicals still forgive him because he was so “passionate” about his country.

on his wife.

"Vile, corrupt and immoral Newt Gingrich" blah blah blah

What happened was, in the deposition, Bill was asked if he sex with Monica. He correctly said "No" because sex was defined as Penetration. Not Oral. SO Republicans got the definition changed to include oral and -- perjury..

Remember Bill asking what the definition of "is" is? That was a result of Republicans, in their haste to trap Bill, forgot to define what Sex is... So they hounded him to try to get him to admit to something that he didn't do, according to the legal definition..

All the right-wingnuts like him paved the way to the national horror show we must find a way out of.

gingrich was/is worse than Clinton ever thought of being.
The other leading gop male leading the impeachment charge was hastert. He was a pedophile and later convicted. A plural of "republiCONS" wrote letters to the judge pleading for mercy at his sentencing hearing.

The louder they "object" the more guilty they are. graham fits that bill too. Anti gay voting record to "cover" for being closeted gay boy.

Callista was appointed ambassador to the Vatican.
I suppose this was also a way of trolling the Pope.

Newt in his convoluted way is trying to absolve himself of his sins, which aren’t sins if committed by Republicans.
