Newt Gingrich is an Odd Duck

That must've been the oddest announcement of a bid for President I've ever seen.
He took one question and fled the room.
Yeah, that's the right stuff there, Newt.

I do wish he would go away. Does he think he can fill the Huckabeelite niche?

Ah, Newt. One of my all-time favorites.
Wasn't so long ago, he was claiming that women can't be soldiers because their vaginas would heal over if they stayed in a trench too long, or some such hilarity.
I'm really going to enjoy the next election cycle.

For Emperor, not for something stupid like president. Actually in a few years I plan I giving you this planet. I'm getting tired.

I should probably begin abstaining from voting.
I voted for Scott Walker (R-WI) in the last election here, and that seems to have done little but bring my democratic process to a complete and utter halt.
This is what I get for voting for a Republican for the first time in twenty-something years.

The only people corrupting the democratic process in WI are the Dem Fleebaggers. Not showing up for work? No no.

Yes, and the Nazi Kapitan who worked the door at Dachau would have been derelict in his duty if he didnt' shepherd his charges through the portal.
When simply doing your job can result in vast and terrible consequences for tens of thousands of people, being willing to NOT do that job is a virtue in itself.

I love Newt. This is going to be a circus of EPIC proportions. Add in Palin and the witch, christ I can't wait for the fur to fly.
