That was just a misstatement made in his youth !

The RealRobertVanRoyaleWithCheese says . I want to put to rest all this Internet nonsense about me being a RACIST . As a liberal nut , it’s not possible . True , I hate crackers , Republicans , especially black Republicans , Mormons , etc. , but ,so what ? bottom line , I am not a RACIST ! So , just stop the talk about my racial hatred .

I happen to catch the end of this, old Newt was ducking and dodging so much much I figured he must have learned ‘Rope a Dope’ from Ali.

Hugo Daun said:

But everytime a Shep story is posted they always say he’s the only good thing about FNC is Shep because he tells the truth. Now Shep lies too?

Unless of course ‘ENTIRETY’ has a different meaning in the lib dictionary.

take out the ‘he’s'…….hey I just woke up.

Yeah Newt, blame the opposition.

I don’t disagree with what you have written, but don’t you think that the success of the ultimate Republican nominee is going to depend in large measure by how much he or she distances himself from Ryan? The candidate must first be the winner of the nomination, of course, and that is going to require some extreme right wing posturing. It always does (as the candidate of the Democrats must posture to the left), but then moderation, a drawing to the middle must occur. The slog back from the extreme right is going to be very difficult this year because the right is so very extreme. The Ryan plan is a milepost very far to the right. I think Newt may have understood the political reality, but is timing is very off. The successful nominee will have to embrace Ryan until the moment he or she secures the requisite delegate vote, then immediately run hard and fast to the middle.

LOL, why do you always prove yourself to be one of the dumbest people on the Earth?

Shut up, Newt. Go away. And take any of the rest of the old school republican “conservatives” with you.

You had your chance and couldn’t get it done. What in the name of sanity makes you and your ilk think that the same old lame BS will get it donen this time?

Time for new blood. Drag your tired old ass off the stage, please.

The content of the article is fine, but wow–does Mediaite need a proofreader or what? It’s never-ending, the parade of grammar gaffes. It’s constant on Mediaite, but this article could serve as Exhibit A.

For example:

How is your week going? Most likely its going much better than GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich. (SHOULD READ “Gingrich’s.”)

Just days after officially announcing his candidacy, respected political pundit Charles Krauthammer said of Gingrich’s candidacy “It’s done, it’s over.” (WHO officially announced his candidacy? It reads as though it was Krauthammer.)

…its very difficult to imagine that he and or campaign would ever pursue such a case, guaranteeing that this confusing chapter in Gingrich’s candidacy stays in the news. (SHOULD READ “it’s” with an apostrophe.)

And while Gingrich appears to be taking someone of a litigious position… (SHOULD READ “something,” not “someone.”)

I’m a proofreader. Available. Talk to me, Dan, or whoever does the hiring. You need someone stat.

Word. This one is another doozy:

Perhaps most importantly, the segment revealed that Bill O’Reilly is a big fan of The Weather Girls (singer’s of It’s Raining Men) is one of O’Reillys favorite bands.

Redundancy, misplaced/missing punctuation. That sentence is a train wreck. Just proofreading your own work a time or two should keep that sort of thing from happening. Apparently, that’s not very important here.

What? Whatever that is that’s in your mind Ollie. Did Paul Ryan put forth a budget? Yes! Where is this budget along with other bills? Somewhere clogged up in the pipeline. Is Paul Ryan running for President? No!

By this time next year I doubt anybody (unless Paul Ryan runs) will be talking about the Paul Ryan budget or Newt. In fact I’m going out on a limb here and say by this time next year you’ll see Newt and Ed Rollins hanging out together on CNN.

Evidently you weren’t around in the nineties. Gingrich is a highly skilled and even ruthless politician. He engeneered the republican takeover and Clinton’s impeachment. That’s the problem. He’s stuck in the politice of the past. It’s time for him to move on, as I’ve often said.

BUT – he’s certainly no “amateur”. Your poltical perception is as acute as your knowledge of history.

“The most serious, systematic revolutionary of modern times.” Newt Gingrich on Newt Gingrich.

“We must expect the Soviet system to survive for a very long time. There will be Soviet labor camps and Soviet torture chambers well into our grandchildren’s lives.” Example of New Gingrich’s prophetic grasp of the future.

“Kill jobs and lead to a recession, force people off of work and onto unemployment and will actually increase the deficit.” Gingrich again waxing prophetic regarding President Clinton’s 1993 budget bill. Gosh, how wrong can a person be?” Newt Gingrich

“Public Broadcasting is a sandbox for the rich. The NEA and the HEH are simply enclaves of the left using your money to propagandize your children against your values.” Newt Gingrich

“They still don’t realize that the appropriation is gone, that the game is over. The power of the Speaker is the power of recognition, and I will not recognize any proposal that will appropriate money for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. What they should be doing is planning for the future.” Newt Gingrich

“In Washington DC 800 babies are left in dumpsters a year.” Newt Gingrich with a very big lie. It was not 800, it was four. But considering his views on abortion and welfare he may just help his lie come true.” Newt Gingrich

“Put your baby in a dumpster, that’s Okay.” Newt Gingrich explaining what liberals want when he was questioned about his plan to initiate 19th Century orphanages.” Newt Gingrich

“Most People don’t realize it’s illegal to pray in school, most people somehow think that’s not true.” Newt Gingrich with another flat out lie. Praying is allowed in public schools as long as it is not lead by government employees or so loud as to disrupt the education of others.” Newt Gingrich

“Up to 25% of the White House, when they first came in, had used drugs within the past 4 or 5 years.” Newt Gingrich just making stuff up.

“On Inauguration Day, they’re breaking the law and doing drugs. Two days later, they’re in the White House. This must be the most disciplined set of addicts in the world…” Poor loser Newt Gingrich making stuff up four years later regarding the Clinton Administration.

“The Federal government made a Danish heart pump illegal that was used in ambulances that kept 54% of people alive who would otherwise now be dead.” Newt Gingrich with another flat out lie to further demonize the government. Official tests of the pump proved it to be of absolutely no benefit whatsoever.

“Give the park police more ammo.” Newt Gingrich response to a reporter who asked what to do about the homeless a few days after the police shot a homeless man in front of the White House.

“The problem isn’t too little money in political campaigns, but not enough.” Newt Gingrich on campaign reform.

“Somehow on the left… you can do anything you want and nobody seems to notice. But if you are a conservative and… you make a single mistake you better plan to be pilloried.” Newt Gingrich making the most hypocritical statement since Bill Clinton became President.

“If you sell them (drugs), we will kill you.” Newt Gingrich

Color Me Badd said:

Really?

From Winki:

During Gingrich’s term as Speaker, Congress passed and President Bill Clinton signed the 1996 reform of welfare, a capital gains tax cut and the first balanced budget since 1969. His term also saw the monthly unemployment rate fall from 5.6% in 1995 to 4.2% in 1999, the creation of as many as 8.4 million new jobs and the lowest rate of growth in government spending (2.9%) in several decades. The 1996 budget deal represented the largest drop in discretionary spending since 1969.

Worst ever?

you’ve made a very eloquent case for voting for newt… thanks for the insight…

Maybe the rapture really is coming. Newt taking a page from the O’Donnell and Palin campaign strategy? “If I don’t like the question, I’m not going to answer it.” — “That nasty David Gregory is just like Katie Couric — he set me up with trick questions.”

“It’s completely unfair to use what I said yesterday, when I said today that what I said yesterday was a mis-speak — except for the part in which I stated yesterday that my comments from a week ago were quoted in error and that I refudiate them. I’ll tell you all tomorrow what I really think — please submit your questions in advance and I’ll decide whether I can be bothered to answer them, and then only if you agree not to quote me until the day after, when I’ve reviewed them to be sure it’s what I really meant and that Rush and those other nasty leaders won’t be mad at me.”

Newt has become Humpty Dumpty!!!!!!!
“When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean, nothing more, nothing less.”

Newt is a king maker, but not a king himself.

Fact: Say no to Newt and say yes to Rick Perry!

I love how Newt just blurts things out. He might be my favorite candidate in this race even though I wouldn’t vote for him.

Newt’s a good example of a complete political meltdown. There is no recovering Newt. Please step aside and be quiet, there’s a new sheriff in town:

Herman Cain ’2012

Newt’s comment still falls short of that pearl of wisdom “We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it”.

Anyone who attacks Ryan’s plan better have their own plan to compare. Ryan’s the only person, so far, with the integrity to come up with a plan that’s not filled with accounting ‘smoke and mirrors’ and pretend, non-specific budget goals. Democrats had better get real. Once someone has a specific plan, then they can attack Ryan’s. If not, shut up and do their job.

Republicans and democrats will attack Ryan’s plan because it’s honest.

Hypocrisy, thy name is (potential) GOP candidate.

Testing….
Newt = full of fail. Tired of retyping comments.

Scratch Newt as another R candidate with a good education, but nothing on the inside but a love of his own power. He is too old and too much of a Washington insider now. He wasn’t too bad in 1994, but he has changed for the worse since, sadly. He should quit his campaign like the guy in Iowa said. His changes of position are insincere, and I believe he supports a mandate still, but changed his postion in a futile attempt to gather votes.

Art imitates life imitates art…

Tina Fey as Palin a few weeks back: “And stop takin’ my words out of context by printing them verbatim.”

Surreal.

Newt, is just like all the Republicans any time they get in trouble they have to run back to FOX.

Newt is toast. He ought to pack in and cut his losses.

No he would just be a typical con and accuse you of calling him a racist so he could play the victim of PC card. Or the old fallback, “you’re a fag, commie anti-American who lives in mom’s basement and does drugs while I am out there building farms, factories and cities then fighting evil like a real American.”

Newt doesn’t want anyone to quote him because what he said was wrong. You’ve got to be kidding.

Respected pundit Krauthammer? Don’t you mean that sad fool!

This from the Washington Post:
“That set off conservatives, from Rush Limbaugh to the Wall Street Journal editorial page to William Bennett, who gave Gingrich a lecture on his radio show Monday and told him what he needed to do. “To salvage your candidacy, say you blew it,” Bennett said”.

Do Republican candidates need to ask themselves, “what does Rupert Murdoch want me to say” before they open their mouths?

But Liberal Tormentor says only liberals don’t want their words used against them.

ORIGINAL POST: Did you actually say that Newt “is not tonedeaf” ????? OH. My. God. Seek. A. New LINE OF WORK!

indicate that he recognizes the folly, or he is not tone deaf to the roar of criticisms

His hearing the roar (of disbelief and disgust) has nada to do with tone deafness–he’d have to be DEAD not to have heard that…

Say…doesn’t Mediaite employ a “White House reporter”?
I wonder why there’s no mention of this piece of “Media” here:

Veteran Journalists: Today’s White House Reporters Are Too Timid
By PAUL BEDARD
Posted: May 17, 2011

Several veteran and prize-winning journalists who covered presidents from John F. Kennedy to George W. Bush say that the current crop of White House correspondents are too timid and deferential and have played a role in killing the impact of presidential news conferences.

“If you watch an Obama news conference, and watched a Bush news conference previous to that, where correspondents sit in their seats with their hands folded on their laps, [it's] as if they are in the room with a monarch and they have to wait to be recognized by the president,” says Sid Davis, the former NBC Washington bureau chief who covered nine presidents. “It looks like they are watching a funeral service at [Washington funeral firm] Joseph Gawler’s and it shouldn’t be that way.” [See photos of the Obamas behind the scenes.]

Adds Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post reporter Haynes Johnson, “It’s all very stale, very structured, very pale.”

And longtime NBC and ABC reporter Sander Vanocur: “You want to know what’s wrong with the press? The press is what’s wrong with the press.”
http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2011/05/17/veteran-journalists-todays-white-house-reporters-are-too-timid

This kinda reminds me of CNN reporting on politicians who cheated on their wives without ever mentioning the one employed by CNN.

Newt will never be president. Much ado about nothing.

werRu said:

Do Republican candidates need to ask themselves, “what does Rupert Murdoch want me to say” before they open their mouths?

Fox News is a political operation much like the Republican National Committee. Many aspiring presidential candidates including Gingrich seek employment at Fox News as part of their strategy. If you want to get anywhere in Republican party politics now you must be on good terms with Fox News. Gingrich would be in significantly less trouble if Republicans at Fox such as Krauthammer had not denounced so forcefully his comments.

Consevative play book: Say anything that the “tea hates” want to hear, then when caught.. run and hide at Fox for your free airtime, state the following: 1. I didn’t say that, 2. if you have it on tape, I didn’t mean it and it’s the liberals fault!

OMG! Will this man not “Flip Flop’, on anything? This is classic, Newt basically says, any Democrat, who quotes him, verbatim, will be telling a “lie”. You can’t make this stuff up. The guy’s a complete idiot. And to think this guy, was once “Speaker of the House”, amazing! Is he really this ignorant? Here’s a Democrat’s idea, of the “Republicon” dream ticket, (Trump for Pres. and Newt, as his VP). Thank God these individuals consider themselves, “Republicons”. This Party also features the “Ringling Brothers”, John, Eric and Paul, you know who you are. Silly me, I thought Barnum and Bailey were dead. The “Republicon Party” is truly a three ring circus.

does anyone have a copy of Newts NYTimes add stating the Repubs were using  Saul Alinsky’s tactics?

The GOP mythology rolls on! Fact, truth and honor have no place at the “conservative” table.
