Bill Bennett: Gingrich Is Like ‘A Box Of Chocolates, You Never Know What You’re Going To Get’

You just have to do some research. Usually there’s a diagram of the chocolates showing what’s what.

Mitt Romney is no better: one day he is an abortion supporting, moderate-progressive, the next day he is a hawkish, teabagging-fundie extraordinaire.

On really krappy chocolate, sure. Not all of us buy Whitman’s Samplers, you know?

They are both, indeed, terrible flip-floppers. All politicians do this, sometime understandably, but the image is of a one man tennis game. Lobbing the ball and running to the other end of the court. Makes my neck sore just thinking of it.

My thoughts exactly. If you’re too blind to look at the diagram, you shouldn’t have the chocolates.

Romney is a timid candidate whose ideas are “small ball” and who shows a “bitchy” side when he’s criticized- both he and Huntsman seem to share this trait. Distasteful.

Always bragging. Fancy pants Robert a proud Hershey connoisseur.

Actually, I don’t like chocolate at all.

Don’t know about your Mr. Robert.

I tend to agree with you about both Willard and Hunstman. For me, there is another, indefinable, intangible icky aura about Willard added to this. I find him far more offensive and distasteful.

Then why are you dressing up like Little John of Sherwood Forest, trick or treating every year in your neighborhood?

Note for next time: you do it on Halloween, not Labor Day.

He certainly looks like he knows his chocolates.

It’s funny that you libs think we give a crap what you think of our candidates.  You’;ve got your own loser to deal with.

Yes Michelle, I have noticed you have returned with a new account.

Wow, great comeback!!  For your info, I wasn’t banned, which they do love to do, I was having issues with Disqus. 

Yes. like a box of chocolates the mice have gotten into.  Every dark nugget in the box is not on the diagram or even chocolate.

Both better than an American hating apologist Owebumbles.

Most amusing Michelle-in-Utah! Thanks!

We realize that your cons warmly embrace sexual degenerates, adulterers, lairs, flip-floppers, racists and drug addicts. You don’t think that has really escaped “our” notice do you?

cork it, patsy

COMING SOON: AMERICANS IN GITMO…
Bill allows indefinite detention without trial…
Obama ‘demanded law apply to U.S. citizens’…

Harvard poll-Obama will lose

He doesn’t even have a platform. “Republicans are baaaaaddddddd!” LOL!

I used to find that diagram fascinating as a small child. A similar diagram of Newt chocolates would be a great project for one with the time and skill.

You have a civil war. We are allowed to notice. This is America.

I didn’t say you weren’t allowed to notice, I said it’s funny that you think we give a crap what you think. 

You’ll never get anything from Bennett’s box of chocolates-he clearly does not like to share.

I’m thinking, Gingrich = fruits & nuts.

You seem upset.  I certainly understand why you might be.  That having been said, you are a very pleasant person filled with God’s sweet Grace.  Someday, you shall be a sunbeam.  Namaste.  

Well, at least YOU remembered the name of the movie correctly…Did you catch that in the first paragraph?

Sorry to disappoint you, but I’m not at all upset.

Some boxes have been left around too long and the chocolate can be “wormy.”  Get the picture?

Like ‘A Box Of Chocolates, You Never Know What You’re Going To Get’
This means that there is always something new and a lot of it. For example, you buy a new box of chocolates. When you open the box, you notice that there are new chocolates every time…unless we are talking about Newt’s box which someone ate some of them or licked then and put them back!

Yeah, but Bill Bennett has been dead for 40 years. Talk about emptiness….

I am glad that you have now calmed down… And you never disappoint.

I hear Casino Bill Bennett makes $10,000 wagers on every piece of chocolate he bites into.

New’t inconstancy will kill American and Obama will win :(

Don’t vote New’t but Mitt Romney who knows about Economy and trust worthy and intelligent and integrity and honesty and and and…

Mitt is IT for 2012!! He will beat OBAMA!!

Do you knw he smokes dope!

The diagram is fascinating but, you quickly learn most of the caramels are squared and the round ones are the creams, it has to me a pretty good box of candy for me to like the creams.

A Newt inspired box would have to have a “crunchy Newt” much along the same lines as the “crunchy frog” featured as a running gag in Monty Python’s Flying Circus.  Newt being Newt, he’d probably put divinity in the box, although there is no precedent for it historically.

“Bennett’s decision to quote Tom Hanks‘s developmentally disabled character to slam Gingrich may not be the shrewdest move for a political pundit.”

No, it’s fine and perfectly apt.

Now if Bennett had said voting for Newt would be gambling with America’s future, then that would have been awkward.  

I would rephrase that as “Gingrich Is Like A Can Of Worms  You Never Know What   size of slithering slime you’re going To Get’
